Any team have an answer for Crosby-Malkin-Kessel?

[stepdad gaary]

He didn't have two guys ahead of him on the depth chart in Toronto.

yeah its crazy. teams need more than 1 good forward to win

 

[NyQuil]

Kessel was a great talent (I never said otherwise) but it's hard to build a team around a finesse winger.

Just ask Montreal.

How'd that work out for ya?

Not bad, Maata nearly kills a guy with is reckless play and the refs don't call anything.

Babcock being the consummate "gud coach" decides to play our 4th line grinder Komarov on the 1st line because he's very gud unlike Kapanen and he ends up whiffing on a game tying opportunity.

Beyond that, the game was very close and Murray had to stand on his head more than a few times.

If a few things went differently:
I.e the NHL calls penalties on the pens
Babcock isn't a plug loving moron

The game could've gone completely different.

Geno was a stud tonight. I hope Matthews can reach that level one day.

The PPs were 2-1 in favor of the Leafs...

The last thing this game can be blamed on is the refs. That's just lame as hell.

He's not even a Leafs fan, most of his posts are craping on them.

Yeah, that goon Olli Määttä is a menace to society.

Malkin 2nd in pts
Can win Art Ross and Rocket
It's possible

 

[Unsustainable]

Are they gonna play 60 mins?

23-26 mins, but that trio is not playing 60 either.

 

[Gurglesons]

Johansen
Turris
Bonino
Fisher
Sissons
Jarnkrok

All C besides Turris (and Fisher for obvious reasons) are above 50% in the FO

We coming back, and this time with better center depth.

Josi - Ellis
Ekholm - Subban

No team has a better top four.

Would be a fun rematch regardless of outcome.

As a Pens fan, I think with RJ they probably
win last year.

That being said Predators kept giving them chances to come back. Was at Game 5 in person and you knew after that one, the series was over.

You know, Antii Niemi may wind up being the reason Kucherov gets it over Geno.

Well crosby and kessel weren't very productive but you can't stop all 3 of em can ya?

You do realize all 3 elite players play on different lines, right? That means one of them will be facing the third pairing

Sure pens won tonight but the game was back and forth and the season series is still in torontos favour i believe so.....

Well, plan the parade.

The season series is 1-1, not that it's particularly relevant. The Pens are 0-2 vs. Vancouver this year and I don't think anyone would argue that the Canucks are the better team.

I was just playing along i meant to add a winky emoji at the end of my post but I didn't. Both great teams.
