ECF Game 6 | Penguins @ Senators | 8:00 PM EST | CBC, TVAS, NBCSN PART II

[MoeManthaMustache]

From the first replay, I said it was an obvious no goal. Here was my view:

Daley pushed Andy deeper into the net and then scored. That's clear interference. Now I'm an Ottawa fan, so you probably won't take my opinion seriously. I was with another Sens fan who said the same thing as me, and a Leafs fan who said the same thing, too. Then you had the CBC announcers who said it was an obvious no goal, too. So maybe, it's your bias that's showing here.

Also, it's not Toronto waiving that goal off, it's the refs on the ice.

I agree, it doesn't matter if the puck is there, not there.. you can't pickle stab a goalie or use your stick to move them no matter what.

That's exactly what Daley did.

The penguins had a goal called back this year or last during the regular season because Kunitz did almost the exact thing - he pushed a goalies pad with this stick.

 

[Adele Dazeem]

LOL WHAT? Murray does not equal Rinne..

Murray is a better goalie IMO; Rinne is having a fantastic playoffs, but Murray is a top goalie in the league at a very young age.

 

[ShatteredGlass]

Crosby has been retaliating though. Don't tell me you don't see him slashing and swinging at guys, especially after he fails to win a face-off. He's no saint by any stretch.

So he's supposed to just take it every night?

Of course he's retaliating. He's tired of the ******** he receives from these players. He better retaliate.

 

[WetcoastOrca]

Even you know my post is close to being correct if not correct...

This is will say, Guy Boucher has done a great job beyond belief after being fired from Tampa....

Ottawa had a great season but they will not be going to the cup.... Not even Tom Brady could beat Pitt in Pitt game 7....

Oh for sure. Upsets never happen.
Thanks for your advice but I'll watch game 7 anyways. See if David can slay Goliath.

 

[SensBrawler]

So you know more than Pierre & Olcyzk. Sure...

Also, show me the moment where Daley shoved Anderson, because after watching the replay 100 times, that didn't happen anywhere.

Well...Pierre and Olczyk both have ties to the Pens, so no ****.

Craig Simpson and Jim Hughson didn't think it should have counted. Do they have any ties to the Sens? Nope. Hell, Craig used to play for the Pens.

 

[ShatteredGlass]

If you're not arguing that Pens>Preds; then Ottawa would have a legit shot, since they pushed the Pens to 7 games.

If games were actually called the right way, it wouldn't have been 7.

I'm hoping the finals will be called correctly, then maybe we'd actually be able to judge team vs team.

 

[EK65IsAGod]

So he's supposed to just take it every night?

Of course he's retaliating. He's tired of the ******** he receives from these players. He better retaliate.

Maybe players are just tired of getting slashed by Crosby so they retaliate. It's a vicious cycle really.

 

[trentmccleary]

He only got the third star though...

Weird order (Hoffman, Ryan, Anderson)...Anderson was definitely the first star. I'd have gone:
1) Anderson
2) Malkin
3) Ryan

 

[Adele Dazeem]

Yes, he should just take it and shut up.


That's not what I'm saying.

I guess all these Sens fans know more than the "Penguins-biased-even-though-they-have-no-ties-to-the-Penguins" NBC crew, who have been involved in the game long before many of them were even born. Give me a break. Everyone and their grandmother (except for the ****-show in Toronto) can see that Daley's goal should have counted.

Translation:

It's pretty obvious from watching this game that the NHL told the refs to call the game in such a way to fix the result so that the small market Ottawa team, that barely gets ratings anywhere in the world, including their own country, where even the national broadcaster likes the other team more, wins the game.

This team that is playing the face of the NHL, Sidney Crosby, and his Pittsburg Penguins, who are one of the biggest rating draws in the NHL.

It's just good business sense you know.

Like the rest of the NBC crew, Pierre and Edzo are hilariosly pro Pens. I thought it was a good goal at first but on the replay you really can't miss it, like everyone with eyesight will tell you. Even Edzo caught it in the end.

 

[ShatteredGlass]

Craig Simpson and Jim Hughson didn't think it should have counted. Do they have any ties to the Sens? Nope. Hell, Craig used to play for the Pens.

I'm sorry, I was unaware they were still on the Pens' payroll.

You think Pierre would be biased to a team he hasn't worked for since the early 90s, and Olcyzk would be biased to the team that fired him in 2004? Give me a break! Can't make this **** up

Just back from the game, Andy was great but he saw almost every shot, as did Murray. Bobby Ryan was the beast on the ice by far, finally using his size and skill to turn pucks over and create chances. Andy saw a to. Of shots but very few were threatening, Hoffman snipes a beauty and game over. That's the game story as I watched it live

 

[YearsintheWilderness]

Oh for sure. Upsets never happen.

Shhhhhhh!

We've got to let the over-confident mentality build.

Although many deny it, teams are susceptible to the general narratives that take hold before games.

Let's all repeat together: THE SENS CAN NEVER WIN

LET'S LOBBY THE NHL TO AWARD THE GAME TO THE PENS

IT'S SIMPLY A FORMALITY

The Great Northern Conspiracy.

 

[Tender Rip]

Congrats to Ottawa and not least Anderson for stealing one.

It sucked a great deal as a Pens fan, as I can't think there is much doubt that we were the much better team even while missing bodies.

Down to game 7 - always a lottery when just one game decides, but I still take comfort in 1: Sully and Murray's record after losses. 2: seeing that we are a great deal better. 3: we won the conference final at home in game 7 last year to break our pathetic home game 7 spell. A series we should also have ended before that point.

Hopefully the breaks are less one-sided in Ottawa's direction in the next one, but it will surely be "heart in your throat" season again.

Anyway, as hockey fans we are supposed to love game7's right?

Crosby has been retaliating though. Don't tell me you don't see him slashing and swinging at guys, especially after he fails to win a face-off. He's no saint by any stretch.

If you call Crosby dirty i'll puke. He's the face of the NHL, more over-exposed than the Kardashians. By now if your not a Pens fan you'll hate him. Hardly dirty, unprotected yes. No other sport doesn't protects it's cash cows.

 

[Micklebot]

If you can't tell McGuire is still a huge Pens fan, I don't know what to tell you. There's nothing wrong with it, particularly when covering an american team on an american network, but he's a huge Pens homer.

Karlsson gets slashed as much as Crosby.

They are insanely biased towards the pens. If you think otherwise you arent listening

This is what I saw too. It was actually a pretty even game except for parts of the second period.

 

[ShatteredGlass]

Sure, when you assume that instead of realizing that a person can admire talent instead of ******** on it all the time just because it's not their team, it's easy to reach the conclusion you just did.

 

[Shruggs Peterson]

There's no question about it. The guy sounded like he was on the verge of crying after Game 3.

 

[Masked]

Just want to point this out:

Sens are winning tonight since they've got the kid singing the anthem instead of that terrible woman.
