Call me crazy, but I like the Wings chances in the post season, especially if we get Z back. Not having our shutdown guy Big E will hurt us against Boston, but if Jimmay can surprise on the upside, should be a lengthy series. I like our speed, youth and tenaciousness.
Boston is the old Detroit.: Has the pressure as heavy favorites, has played a LOT of hockey over the past few years which hopefully equals tired legs.
Some horrible defending and giveaways lost it for us. But they certainly didn't give up with they were down 0-4, gotta give 'em that.
Now all we need to do is hit Perry in the face with the puck as well

For the first time in a long time I could give 2 shits about hockey. So fed up with the local team I could genuinely care less who wins and won't watch a minute of these playoffs.
Toronto Maple Leafs - sucking the love for hockey out of their fans one miserable season at a time.
GO RAPTORS!

Meanwhile, Columbus may wonder if they lost their chance...coughing up a 2-goal lead?

Yeah, Letang definitely was a step slow, definitely not as sharp as he looked earlier on in his return. Hoping it was just an off night.
I dunno if one game equates to hitting the panic button.
BUT, to Waldorf's point, one can never have too much defense. It's like pitching...one can never have too much of it.
The bigger take-away is that the Pens should NOT take the Jackets lightly...I expect the Pens to take the series but that is one feisty Columbus team. If they continue the growth, they'll be a solid team for awhile.

Agreed about CBus, the Pens like to play down to their opponents, especially when they're favored. We have 2 solid stay at home defensemen riding the pressbox, we're definitely not hurting for D. I hope Scuderi and Letang tighten up and play more solid

The fact that they have 2 solid stay at home D sitting in the pressbox shows the Pens defensive concept is the problem. I'd understand feeling the need to play Letang if the team had issues with scoring up front but that's not the case is it. The defensive concept of the pens seems to be, "score more goals than they do" and it's not a real solid plan.
Tonight we begin to find out if it's true what everyone says: "The Kings are built for the playoffs."
...or will they struggle against the Sharts.
What are the odds on Torres killing somebody on the kings tonight?

I'm a shark fighter, I fight sharks
I fight 'em in the water 'cuz that's where they are
When I smell blood, I come running
Then I put them in a shark cage
'Cuz my life, to hunt down the creature I despise
Is full of danger
Whose eyes - those dead black marbles they call eyes -
This rhyme tells the story of the...
Shark Fighter, toughest man in the sea!
Shark Fighter, with his wavy blond hair flowing so freely...
I had a girl who was precious to me but a shark took her away, you see
Now I fight sharks not for money, but for love (and that ain't funny, yo)
And here's why: I will avenge my lady with my life
Or until I die in a fight against the underwater army of the night
This rhyme tells the story of the...
Shark Fighter, toughest man in the sea!
Shark Fighter, with his wavy blond hair flowing so freely...
His only goal is a shark casserole
His only creed is to make sharks bleed
He is not mean, he's just getting even
He will not die 'til all sharks cry
I gots me a knife, a bandanna and a topaz necklace
Yeah, I'm extremely reckless: I ride an otter like a motorcycle!
Yeah, I'm not kidding, man! Yeah, I'm not kidding, man!
I'M NOT KIDDING, MAN! YOU KNOW I'M JUST A...

If there is a karma, Torres will be put out by a clean hit early in the game and be done for the playoffs.
