We need to keep taking hockey away from the Caps. Let them continue to bully, whack, and smack us around; just go about our business. If we do that and start scoring, we'll be in their heads.

Hopefully we can capitalize on the Caps getting a little too desperate in the 3rd. Would not shock me to see some odd man rushes this period.

Pens just need to win this period. End of story. That's all... it's going to be an all-out assault by Washington. Clog it up, FRUSTRATE the already frustrated team, and go to work.

This period defines a team. Pens are going to have to survive big time.

Aren't the caps the best 3rd period team in the league? It's almost storybook how this game can turn out, tremendously outshot all game, 1 to 5 powerplay differential, goal waived off from interference. They'll score some bs lucky bounce deflection and will never look back.

I'm afraid to even watch at this point it's so perfect of an ending to not happen.

Another issue with the PP is that they have seemed to figure out that Phil really likes that "try to bank it off Sid" play. It hasn't been available to him, and he seems unsure of what to do.

Every game against this bush league team makes me hate them more. I stopped caring about them because they were basically jokes for a while, but now that they're good, their innumerable cheap shots are all the more annoying. We gotta keep skating them into submission.

Probably gonna need 1 or 2 pk's this period.
Just like game 1.
We got a chance to steal one in their barn.
Let's see how she goes.

Me too. I can't even watch now, just waiting for a bad bounce

I'm worried that with a 5-1 powerplay advantage, though deserved, the zebras will be itching to call the first thing even close to a minor against the Pens. It's coming. Would have been real nice to score on one of those chances, but the powerplay is just way too predictable.

For the Caps after Letang jams some passes into forward's legs? I can also see that...

We better not see that see saw effect of calling penalties where the caps are going to get away with murder and the pens will get called for everything. But it's NHL refs, that's exactly what's going to happen.

They are taking geno's one timer, and letang just can't get that puck through when he gets a chance. But we don't have to worry we won't see another one tonight
