We'll see how we hold up at home. Our crowd will be behind the team in a big way for game 3. Pittsburghers love an underdog.

Whats the vibe if we win the next 2? It's a new series then. We only need to find a way to win one game in New York. And we've had a legit chance to win both of these. So go home, regroup, and then whoever takes game 5 probably takes the series.

Depends upon how we win. Like we could've won the first 2? Meh . . . not confident then.

Would I like more production from Horny? Absolutely. But he contributes in ways that don't show up on the stat sheet. Gud doesn't score that goal without a tremendous screen from Horny in front.

Is that worth north of $5 million a year? That's an entirely different discussion entirely. :laugh:

I'm pretty sure the Isles' goals have come from an aggregate of less than 20 feet, too.

Every goal has been with in 10 ft, except the 3rd goal in game 1.


So the only goals murray ia giving up are the High percentage ones that most NHL players score on.

No it isn’t. That is the players playing smart. Sullivan is a video guy, you think he’s out there telling them to try to go through four guys?
you are not getting this part...his biggest mistake is that believes that some player still can do things that they actually can't and than put them in position to do that...and than when they don't its their fault...

I’m just happy they made the playoffs this year. If they lose in the 1st round it’ll probably facilitate more roster changes. Kessel will definitely be gone I’d think... but I might keep him and try to go all in on offense personally.. this team is boring.

Only shot taken is when there's a guy 2ft directly in front of Letang.

f***ing pathetic.

You're down by 2 with 2 minutes left, you can't wait 30 seconds between shot attempts. Globetrotter hockey has to stop. PLant a guy in front, tee up one timers and fight your ass off for rebounds.

Mark my words. This thing is coming back to New York 2-2.

I dunno if we're winning the series. But it's coming back to NY 2-2.

Actually yes it is. Simon scored a goal in blowout time against St. Louis. That was it for him since about January.

Simon has 4 ES goals and 4 goals overall in the same window as I was looking at for Hornqvist. So no, it's not. And again, Simon makes 12% of what Hornqvist makes and is a playmaker.
