GDT: ECQF Game 2 | Pittsburgh Penguins vs Philadelphia Flyers | 7PM | A Place in History?

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Hornnqvist getting the Downie treatment.

 

[The GM]

Is 'Big Game' Brassard even playing tonight? I literally haven't noticed him or heard his name a single time tonight

I saw him a few times, but less than big game Bryan rust

 

[vodeni]

what about hags?????no

 

[canadianguy77]

Pens sure didn’t have an answer.

If you get down 2, it becomes extremely difficult to answer, which is why Ottawa took us to 7.

 

[flaneur]

woah. pulling murray with that much time left?

 

[Bingo71]

Are they really going to run the big dogs into the ground in a game that has already been lost?

 

[Shrimper]

Horny needs to calm down

 

[KIRK]

Horny just losing his mind. Flyers have succeeded in that.

Well, makes sense . . . the guy who WASN'T here in 2012 being the one acting like he was.

 

[PensandCaps]

I'd bring back Kessel-Malkin.

Keep Sheary away from the top 9. He's horrible.

Guentzel-Crosby-Hornqvist
Hags-Malkin-Kessel
ZAR-Brassard-Rust
Sheary-Sheahan-Kuhn

 

[EightyOne]

LoL. Bold strategy Sullivan.

 

[Gurglesons]

Glad the Refs got their faces on the screen tonight.

 

[LOGiK]

Half of it.

But I don’t give a **** about the officiating. The Pens has ample chances to be in this game and blew all of them.

Sid missed a breakaway and a wide open net. The PP has been garbage. Guys are taking selfish penalties.

I’m not going to fall into the trap of blaming the officiating.

How can you watch half a game and say officiating was fine?
Sheary boarded. Tons, TONS, of after the whistle hits, slashes, cross checks. Icing call waved off, bogus penalty that changed the flow of the game on ZAR.
Boarding hits and Hornqvist gets a dive penalty.
Dood.... if you watch hockey, this is an incredibly poorly officiated game, win or lose. It's a bad representation of hockey.

 

[HuskerTornado]

Hornqvist tossed, along with Manning...because Hornqvist hit Giroux with a clean hit and Manning hooked his stick around Hornqvist's arm and asked him to go. Great job, refs.

 

[seabs926]

Shortened bench.

EDIT: Horny tossed. LOL.

And yet guys like Sheary, ZAR, and Kuhn have gotten even strength minutes since Hags was benched.

 

[KIRK]

ZAR tripped

 

[Hockey Freak 7]

Pens sure didn’t have an answer.

Right . But pens won .. pens in 5 with Flyers..

 

[madinsomniac]

Please, we ate this trap alive... we didn't capitalize... plain and simple

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Hornqvist is fine. The refs tossed him because they are trash.

 

[Fatty McLardy]

Probably the worst effort ive seen by any team in the playoffs.. No one willing to go to dirty areas for rebounds. Bunch of perimeter shots making elliot look good.

 

[Gumbercules]

Elliott sure looked confident on that shot.

 

[Tom Hanks]

JR should be all over the refs in the post game

 

[canadianguy77]

Whatever. Murray has to be better. I fully expect to get past these Cryers. But all of you expecting a Stanley Cup Final berth need to check your expectations. Tampa or Boston will beat us if we meet them.

 

[Hockey Freak 7]

And yet guys like Sheary, ZAR, and Kuhn have gotten even strength minutes since Hags was benched.

Hags benched for what?

 

[fate]

i'm glad we put an extra passer on the ice

 

[imouttahereEdWinger]

if the pens weren't winning every cup i wouldn't be watching the nhl at all

Still don’t care. Championship teams overcome.
