...Milbury and Jones...my least favorite duo of all time. no mention of bs call that leads to Philly's lead taking goal, but they point out something Crosby did on Talbot's breakaway that wasn't a penalty that they try and convince the casuals that it was one...smfh

I like closing my eyes during intermissions, and when I hear them, this is what I see in my mind

Penguins are beyond idiotic for losing their emotions every PHI game. It's embarrassing.

Just play the FN game and skate away. You never win this S being the more skilled team. Skate away. Skate away.

So BB only got 3 shift that period but our 4th line who spends every second of every shift in our own end gets its regular shift

Go look at ES ice time for Malkin versus Kunitz and Dupuis if you really want to have fun. Bennett's ice management is child's play for Disco and Granato.

I don't think Orpik's having a particularly good night, either.

But man, the Flyers suck the Pens in every time. They're in the Pens' heads.

I feel Geno falls head over heels for it. Far more scrapping and off the puck stuff than we usually see, which no doubt takes him off his proper game pretty quickly.

They would be in the offensive zone if DB wouldn't put 'em against the top Flyers line. It makes zero sense. Lav has to be laughing when Bylsma matches Giroux with Adams/Vitale/Glass.

It's really stupid. Talk about loving your grinders too much. Bylsma has even come right out and said he likes to play that 4th against other team's top lines. It's so dumb it boggles the mind.

It's not over, but the boys have to play better than the second half of that period.

They have to get away from that Flyer ******** and start stepping up on these tricks.

I don't know about the Flyers starting all the garbage - seems pretty even to me. I wouldn't really worry about who starts all the bs it's who keeps their cool better.

Sounds guilty to me

Poor Bennett, he only had 3 shifts in the 2nd period...

I feel like a child who is up past his bedtime and is risking getting grounded.

I see what you're saying, but his line's leaving no outlet for any D. The choices they just gave to Martin was "dance those 4 guys and get us the puck while we stare at you." Horrible sequence by them. Incredibly impressive by Martin that he stalled that long.

What? Malkin, Neal and Cooke were all available to take a short pass from either Martin or Orpik. More than once on that sequence.

In any case this is not the play that defines anything of which I am saying. I am talking about our structured breakout. Notice how little Malkin gets the puck coming through the neutral zone with speed unless he picks up a lose puck by himself. And notice how much he sees off Engelland-Bortuzzo who will always look to send it up the wall.

He's been fine and has a goal. Neal's pretty much been the new Geno in terms of insanely stupid penalties this year to be honest.
