Pens vs Isles, Game Six

[El Kabong]

Do or die time. Let's go.

[Orangesteel]

Cizikas punched Zucker last game right in the face, right in front of the net, no call.

Punches were thrown again as you mentioned fractal after Mayfield nailed Malkin.

Apparently you can just punch dudes now.

[El Kabong]

Score!

Hold the lead please.

[Orangesteel]

Yes!!!!

That’s playoff hockey there boys

[Orangesteel]

Now play some GODDAMN DEFENSE

[fractalsteel]

Zucker
Great to see the guys being called out stepping up so far.

I'm hoping for at least 5 minutes of lead time.

[El Kabong]

This fuckin' team.

[fractalsteel]

I think the top line is -3 right now.
That is the bad news
The good news is that Sorokin seems human

[Orangesteel]

We just aren’t that good.

[El Kabong]

Good grief.

[Jobu]

Toast

[Orangesteel]

We fucking blow.

[fractalsteel]

It can't hurt to put Legace in now. Jarry is toast.

[El Kabong]

Holy fuck.

[Orangesteel]

Yank Jarry. So long dickface

[Orangesteel]

Oh sure leave him in, good call Sullivan you fuck

[fractalsteel]

2 minutes 13 seconds and it all goes to shit.

[Orangesteel]

This is a weak team. Top to bottom. Time for new blood.

[SteelPro]

Worst playoff goaltending in a long time. Only time I can recall it being worse was when Flower imploded against the Flyers.

And you have a HC who won't make the change. Maybe Legace comes in and sucks but you have to think it would be a good jump for the rest of the team.

In fairness, that's 2 minutes longer than it took last game.

Yep. You can't have a guy with no playoff track record implode in multiple games in a series. You have to hook him.

[Orangesteel]

Picked a bad time to play their worst period of hockey all post season.

This is about what I expected. And Jarry is what we thought.

Human-ish but still a little bit brick wall.

[Orangesteel]

Why does it always look like we have the worst shooting defensemen in the league?

I feel like Petterson hasn’t hit the net in 3 months.

[Orangesteel]

Still waiting for Crosby to do something.

[Orangesteel]

Who would you rather watch in the playoffs?

A. Steelers
B. Penguins

A. Steelers
B. Penguins

Steelers if only because I like football more than hockey.

[fractalsteel]

And it ends with our enemy bleeding, but we lose.

[Ice]

A. Steelers
B. Penguins

Two years ago, I'd likely have said Pens almost without hesitation. Honestly, this series was like a slow motion time warped version of the Browns game.
