Re: Penguins!

Just checked - Some time was cut off the Penske suspensions. And they let Newman skate, as they should. The poor guy seems like a magnet at plate races. Go Pens! (keeping hockey related)

Re: Penguins!

Yea, Newman was all PEN-ned in with Busch on his hood and all ... He would really like to win a cup, also. Go Pens. (just trying to help GA keep it hockey related ...)

Vokoun will start game 5 for the Pens. I had a chance at tickets behind the bench for Game 5, just couldn't handle parting with $350 per ticket. That's a lot of gas money for the boat!

More exciting than the Minnesota Wild. I swear Minnesota sports are cursed. Who goes through 2 goalies in the playoffs...just terribly bad luck!

If it isn't a torn ACL, it's a key player like a goalie or quarterback getting knocked out. It was our QB that got knocked out right before the Vikings playoffs, now our goalies in hockey eye yi yi! :facepalm:

Re: Penguins!

Newman had a lot of PEN-t up frustration, rightfully so. He's getting tired of having roll cage parts named after him. Go Pens!!!!!!!!

$350 behind the bench at the Igloo. OUCH! Too bad the series isn't 3-1 Penquins.

Agree on all accounts! As tempting as it was to pull the cord and go for the tickets, I am just too cheap to spend $700 to take the son to a hockey game ... but it is the playoffs, and they were behind the bench seats, and ...

Rangers tie it up at two games each as well as the Islanders. Serious hockey here for the next few days. Playoff hockey is intense!

Re: Penguins!

Bylsma went back to earlier season lines, Vokoun has made some great saves, the igloo is rockin'! What a goal by Sid ... Stick handling, power, finesse ... Sweet! 3-0 Pens with 4:32 left in the 2nd period!

Re: Penguins!

Game over! pens take a 3-2 series lead with a 4-0 win lead by Vokouns stellar goal tending and a team that played they way they are capable of playing. They made few mistakes tonight. Hopefully they can keep that momentum going to the Cup and Fleury will start playing to his potential.

Re: Penguins!

sure didnt hurt that the other goalie has the worst save per and goals against average of any goalie in the playoffs.i think the pens will find the sens a much tougher nut to crack.at least i think thats who they will play if i heard correctly.dont know if he will be ready but spezza is skating with the team now.

Re: Penguins!

Islanders had no answer for the Pens Offense last night. Game six should be a wide open shoot out and fun till the horn sounds!
