I can't even put into words how nervous I am

 

[broadwayblue]

Fun times.

 

[The Crypto Guy]

Btw, the season ticket reps were apparently telling people Tuesday night would be game 1 if they played the Pens. No confirmation yet.

I'm not as scared of this team as I was when we had never beaten them in the playoffs. That being said, I still hate them and want to kick their teeth in.

 

[EdJovanovski]

Thank God! I have a birthday party to attend Wednesday

Anyone else concerned bread didn’t come out with his jersey at the end of the game

 

[Glen Sathers Cigar]

Pretty nuts we went through a half decade long rebuild and come out of it just to have another playoff meeting with the Penguins led by Crosby, Malkin and Letang.

The nightmare is recurring. This is our curse

 

[tomobson]

Sweep.

 

[Jaromir Jagr]

Pretty nuts we went through a half decade long rebuild and come out of it just to have another playoff meeting with the Penguins led by Crosby, Malkin and Letang.

For real. Feels like those years practically didn't exist. But then I look at our side and there's only one guy who was here for any of that. Strange.

Yes because it makes me super nervous that he has covid or something.

Thank God there's no Pierre anymore. Kristopher Letang.

Still not sure what to make of this bottom 6. Are you going with the kid line game 1? Maybe something like this:

Laf-Chytil-Hunt
Rooney (rather Brod but it won't be) - Goodrow - KK

I think this too.

1) GG ain't going with a Kid Line with actual stakes
2) Laf-Chytil-Hunt seem to have some chemistry

 

[mas0764]

I think we'll win this series relatively unchallenged. I don't think it will be a sweep but I don't think it goes 7 games either. If it goes 6 I think we probably go up 3-1 first so we are comfortable-ish.

But I don't think we get out of the second round.

 

[rangers1314]

I'd also love to believe that Reaves isn't in the line up for G1, but I may need to see that before I believe it.

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

this is going to be an infuriating series i can tell

Yeah, he's not really needed against the Pens.

The zebras love the Pens.

Kid line is finished. GG changed things up and broke it up tonight. No way that trio plays game 1

In his interview it didn’t sound like they are done at all. He said the game was stale so he just made some moves on the fly. With Copp and Bread back that line will stay together, none of them should be on the 4th line.

I would be 100 percent shocked if that line is a thing game 1 of the playoffs.
