GDT: PO Game 4: Columbus vs. Pittsburgh | 4/23 7PM EDT

one (minor) disappointment from last night...that after the 3 stars the team didn't give the crowd the curtain call it was begging for

Saving that for after Game 6 when the series is over

Thank God that was the 4th goal and not the third so we didn't have to stop the celebration and do the sleepy Mexican Hat Dance song before continuing to celebrate.

What a crowd, my ears are still ringing!

This link is the on-ice celebration. Here's what I wanted to have happen: the last person over to congratulate Nicky is Bob, who greets him with a giant hug and a hearty "Foligno!"

This video operator should be fired. Where is the Bob/Nick hug?!!!

You and I don't agree on much, but this comment is spot on. Kill the Chili Chant. My ears are ringing too.

The crowd noise is almost better without the overlay of the video. I can see the goal clearer in my mind.

Link by way of Puck Daddy, but his positive comments are worth reading anyway:

It's the worst...it was fine in the early years when we needed silly gimmicks to put ***** in seats, but we are a legit hockey franchise now and it's time to put a bullet in that buzzkill of a tradition. Or at the very least, do it on the first whistle AFTER the goal, not during the goal celebration and interrupt the goal song!

My sentiments exactly. The funny part is I went to high school with the arena organist and I sent him a message today telling him he did a great job, but asked him if there was any way I could convince him to never play the Chili Chant ever again.

That would be awesome, I would even be fine with moving it to after the first play after the goal, then all the kids could get what they want and we don't play the Mexican Hat Dance instead of our goal song!

On a side note, imagine what this team would be doing with a HEALTHY Horton! The one that was a beast last year for Boston in the playoffs!

Dubinsky said the crowd started cheering even in the moments after the Penguins' third goal.

"After they scored that third goal, they were chanting, 'C-B-J.' As a player ... I'm not sure that they completely understand the energy that they give us when they stick behind us like that. So, great character by them, and I thought our guys responded," Dubinsky said.

Carry the Flag.

Carry the Flag.

Great quote. That is why it is important to play at home. It isn't what it does to the opponent as much as what it does for the home team.

Here's the video where he says it, the ESPN reworded his quote. And hopefully some people will hear what he said about Bob:

Notice that the cannon is fired three times?

Thanks, that was great.

For the guy that said we couldn't hear the cannon? Please, in here you can clearly hear it over the fans.

Oh yeah, we were in 113 so we were close by it!

I like to think it was a three volley salute.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-volley_salute

"It consists of a rifle party firing blank cartridges into the air three times. The custom originates from the European dynastic wars, where the fighting ceased so the dead and wounded could be removed. Then, three shots were fired into the air to signal that the battle could resume."

Rather fitting.

I think that was the extra confetti launchers that they had around the arena going off.

That may have been part of the noise as well, but I distinctly remember looking down from 206 and seeing the cannon fire three rounds. It was something I'd never seen before.

Didnt see this anywhere, but here was the post game in the locker room
