Does Richards allow the team to go for the 3rd goal and possibly allow the Pens to go on an odd man rush or does he have the players sit on the one goal lead and allow Pens to have puck position and make them earn a scoring chance.

Gotta forecheck them.

We do not have the mental strength to play with a 2 goal or more lead. We need that killer instinct.

And I don't have the intestinal fortitude to withstand another overtime game, so they better come out strong and put some insurance on the board! Pens are just too dangerous, have to drive in a stake, bury them, and build a highway over the gravesite.

As long as we simplify the defense (by which I mean making the simple play and getting it out of the zone instead of playing with the puck) and regain that motivation to get a goal, CBJ will be fine.

It's just that CBJ never can play with a lead it seems. Hopefully that late Pens goal wakes up CBJ and reignites the fire.

The CBC announcers said Foligno even slowed down. But they also felt that call on Neal was weak and felt that it was a make up call on the Foligno call.

I laughed when they said the Neal call was weak. He deep-sixed Wiz & totally took him out of the PK.

I got lots of beer & if I run out I have a fully stocked wine cellar so I'm good to go.

Well, this upcoming period is another learning experience. We also haven't been great with the sellouts.

Let's see what happens!
