And the Cansucks wonder why the rest of Canada hates them?

The quote from Schneider:

Nobody cares about Edmonton so nobody hates them. It's that simple.


And while that may be true, Cory, please use your inner voice when talking about other Canadian teams?

Well, not sure what sort of water the Pens are sipping...but, they had yet another nice lead going into the 2nd period and then poof.

They think with Crosby back that he can do everything? Maybe he should've stayed injured because the Pens I've seen without him played better overall. Very strange.

Nice game by Couturier and Giroux.

I'm just absolutely stunned though by the Flyers. Down 3-0 and 2-0 ON THE ROAD...and they are now about to go up 2 games to none. WTFBBQ.

Did the Pens charge up the Flyers in that fight-filled game a week ago with the stunt on Briere in the final minute...?

Believe it. The Cansucks are a mentally weak team. If you need to resort to dirty plays to win, you aren't really a good team.


Still, this series is far from over. The Bruins were down 2-0 in the series last year at a point too and came back.

The Canucks will be fine, someone just needs to get out the old pressure gauge and check Luongo's tires, I'm guessing they need to be pumped. Time for Schnieder to take over as the #1 goaltender in Vancouver.

To be honest I didn't watch them, mom says they're on after my bedtime. I do know this though, Louuuu didn't steal those games for them either. If it comes to blaming someone in Vancouver, I like Lou as my go to guy

Well, not sure what Louuuuuuu could've done to bail out his team on those goals...being left out to dry is what his team did.


Ask Bryzgalov and Fleury -- two other namebrands who got torched by no D yesterday.

Wow .. I thought the Pens were dirty .. they got nothing on the Rangers but at least
Boyle won't be pulling any more shennagins.

So, how many games you think Hagelin will be suspended for?

Rangers dirty? You guys wrote the book on dirty tonight.

Not sure what pissed me off more. Tying goal, loss or that NBC went to teh Pho/Chi game and I missed it.

Hagelin will get the same as Carkner at least.

We shall see. I'm betting nothing happens to Carkner and Hagelin is out the rest
of this series at least.

Sure that is how it will go. We shall see indeed.

And .... what was it Boyle did to Karlsson the previous game? Did Boyle get
suspended? .. pffft .. not even a penalty.

Carkner will be suited up for the next game, Hagelin won't.

What does the previous game have to do with how the league deals with dirty hockey?

As you said see we shall.

^^ The officiating in this series has been abysmal so far. I've never seen 2 pucks - legal
pucks - left in play at the same time before! In the previous play the shot went up into
the netting and then dropped onto the webbing at the back of the net but the officials
forgot to pick that puck up! Next play, they dropped a fresh puck - I think that would make
both pucks legal? It would have been interesting if someone scored while there were 2
pucks in play!
