LET'S GO ISLANDERS !!!!!!!

 

[fantasycurse42]

Islanders look terrible!

Their power play was :X

 

[Bill Brasky]

Greiss not superhuman today.  That's trouble.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

So many penalties

 

[Capella]

7 power plays to 2 for the Islanders in the series so far.

 

[kupcho1]

This draft order is riveting.  

 

[kupcho1]

HOLY CRAP JETS IN TOP THREE

 

[Bill Brasky]

####### Jets

 

[Dinsy Ejotuz]

Really cheap shot by Orpik -- high and late.

I think Sestito dresses for game 3.  Between Orpik's usual nonsense and Tom extend the leg Wilson, it's time for some retribution. 

 

[kupcho1]

Saw Orpik's hit on Maata again. 

Reprehensible

If I'm the Pens, I'm putting on the foil.  I would be ####### Caps up left and right.  One of their stars needs to pay. 

 

[irish eyes]

This looks like the flyers but much worse. If orpik isn't suspended something is seriously wrong. Absolute joke he only got 2 minutes.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Guess the Pens fans don't like free candy anymore?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Would have liked to see Winnipeg or Columbus get Matthews but Toronto should make for a fun rivalry with Eichel. 

Glad the Oilers got boned at least. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

Glad the Oilers got boned at least. 

Yes.  eff Winnipeg though

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Yes.  eff Winnipeg though

Arizona stole their franchise. Would have been cool to see them steal Matthews as payback.

I just don't want to see Laine on an already good team in division that the Wild can't beat

 

[rockaction]

Some of the blogs were talking about Ekman-Larsson for Matthews, but then those 30 thoughts that Aaron posts here addressed it and talked about the cap hit Larsson makes Arizona take, and it's wildly team-friendly for your team's best player according to the guy, which Ekman-Larsson is. 

 

[rockaction]

Oh, and Hagelin!  Sweet little one-timer in the slot off the post and in.  

 

[irish eyes]

Pens absolutely dominating caps, and even better seeing the human pylon orpuk get abused on the goal. Glad we got rid of his old ###, piece of crap

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Jets are going to be scary very soon if they don't #### it up. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

Jets are going to be scary very soon if they don't #### it up. 

No kidding.  They were a playoff team this year if healthy and instead will add a stud forward

Only if Edmonton won would that make sense. Nobody else is that desperate for blue line help.

I think that was the hypothetical case, actually. Thanks.  Raised in Arizona and playing for the Coyotes youth team. They must have wanted him badly.  

 

[sporthenry]

This looks like the flyers but much worse. If orpik isn't suspended something is seriously wrong. Absolute joke he only got 2 minutes.

You mean the disgusting hit by the former Penguin?

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

2nd period almost over and Caps have 5 shots on goal. 

Well, they just got the 6th as I was typing. 

 

[The_Man]

From Orpik on down, Caps are some garbage tonight. PK and Holtby are the only bright spots

 

[Insein]

Orpik, Chimera and Wilson did that the whole series against the Flyers. Not surprised.

 

[The_Man]

Good call. Kuznetsov doing his best Semin impersonation tonight with this offensive zone penalties

 

[Bill Brasky]

Looked pushed imo.  At worst not a penalty 

 

[dgreen]

Maybe the Caps can actually touch the puck in the third period?

 

[Billy Bats]

Orpik, Chimera and Wilson did that the whole series against the Flyers. Not surprised.

But they didn't knock anybody out. NHL suspends for injuries only. Orpik will get some for that hit.

 

[JaxBill]

I really don't understand the Letang tripping call. Thought it was a good play. But if you really have to call a penalty on it maybe just maybe you can stretch it into interference.  But really saw no tripping 

 

[rockaction]

Backstrom's little between the legs kick at mid-ice in full stride to give himself a contested 2-on-1 was just sick. Love the skill. Oshie's little between the legs drop in his own zone in the second. The little things, and Washington does them so, so well. 

Really like watching this team. And I don't like the Capitals, really.  

 

[Bill Brasky]

Can't win with that Malkin guy who's probably playing hurt.  Man what a bum.

 

[sporthenry]

Going 7 and the fun is just getting started. 

 

[rockaction]

Well, guess it's 1-1. Not much more other to say than that. Pens deserved to win. 

 

[sporthenry]

at Trotz trying to defend the hit. Cried all last series about this stuff then turns around and defends a dirty hit. 

 

[Capella]

Getting a taste of things if Stamkos leaves. Doesn't look so bad. 

 

[gianmarco]

Good start!

 

[ItsOnlytheRiver]

Dallas looking damn tough other than the goaltending. 

 

[ItsOnlytheRiver]

Parayko had a great period. He has been a godsend. You guys know who he is yet?

 

[Brady Marino]

Parayko had a great period. He has been a godsend. You guys know who he is yet?

Poor man's Shea Weber

 

[Zegras11]

Parayko had a great period. He has been a godsend. You guys know who he is yet?

 

[Bob Sacamano]

Wife: "Is he saying, 'Johnny'll Do Ya'?"

"This isn't the Kentucky Derby."

"Well what's his ####in name then?"

 

[gianmarco]

Here we go again

 

[Bob Sacamano]

3rd was putrid

 

[Brady Marino]

Hitchcock's prevent defense in the third period has got to go. Like forever.

Play.

To

Win.

 

[gianmarco]

That was their chance. Ugh.

 

[chet]

Jut got home.  What channel on DTV?

Got it.  NBC
