Yeah Dallas! Come on guys, just win this second round so the Flames get a first round pick instead of a second

Game one down the sh*tter. Here's hoping Murray remembers how to stop the puck.

Edmonton was kind enough to let Toronto win this draft lottery, how nice of them.

Wow, it only took 8 games to suspend a Washington Capital.

SUCCESS! Even if they tried giving it away at the end there.

Letang has been suspended for Game 4 cause of his hit on Johansson. I wouldn't be surprised if that's partially due to Trotz basically saying the NHL had favoritism for Pitt.

Whether that's true or not is another discussion. But considering Trotz has Tom Wilson and Jason Chimera on his roster he's lucky the league hasn't come down harder on him in these playoffs.

Nah we can have that discussion now. I can understand people saying there's favoritism but we get as many suspensions as anyone. Maybe not as many as a couple of teams but if your team is nothing but thugs you're bound to get more.

I'm scared without Letang. It could be open season on Penguins

I'd be quite alright if Pittsburgh went back to these uniforms full-time. In fact, while they're at it, bring this guy back too (just not as dirty as this one is):

In fact, while they're at it, bring this guy back too (just not as dirty as this one is): I'm just glad the Pens finally did away with the terrible blue alternates. I know they went with them because blue and white were the Pens original colors until Pittsburgh City Council made some ruling that all professional sports teams in Pittsburgh then and in the future had to have black and gold as their primary colors (that law is still in effect) but still I hated the blue uniforms. Good win for the Pens. Can't say I'm a fan of Ovi trying to separate Crosby's top half from his bottom but otherwise, it's nice to see the Pens up 3-1. Let's just hope history doesn't repeat itself from the last time these two played in the playoffs where Washington was up 3-1 and the Pens battled back 4-3...I'd be a sad panda if they blew this lead, especially since I really want to see Tampa and Pittsburgh in the ECF.

No Letang, no problem. What a win.

If we make it to the Cup riding a rookie goalie all the way minus two games, Murray and Flower can alternate until the deadline next season, send Flower somewhere in the West that needs a goalie and ride Murray/Zatkoff for the next decade like we did for any combo of Flower/Vocoun/Johnson/Greiss. I knew he'd be good the first time I ever saw him play hockey, but never did I imagine he'd be the one to unseat the Flower here in Pittsburgh. End of an era, but a good sign for the future.

He may have consistency issues as a starter so a platoon with Fleury next season sounds good. But yeah you gotta either move Fleury at the deadline or go into a possible expansion draft leaving a goalie unprotected
