Vasilevskiy time. Kid is pretty good, but had a rough year. 

 

[gump]

OMG

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Every year. God dammit. 

Stamkos probably back even sooner now

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Two inexperienced goalies going head-to-head, makes for an interesting sub plot IMO. 

 

[wazoo11]

Stamkos probably back even sooner now

Before he leaves for Toronto.

 

[poopdawg]

Hate to see Bishop go off the ice, but I love that the Pens fans cheer as he is helped off.  Can only imagine what would have happened in a place like Philly.  Bishop probably would have been peppered with boos and beer cans.

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Ownage

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

####

 

[Wingnut]

Killer, KILL!

####. TJ down

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

That is a killer

 

[rockaction]

You kind of have to be kidding at this point. 

 

[Bill Brasky]

You should get a refund on a TB series bet when Bishop and Johnson go down in the 1st period of game 1

 

[Dickie Dunn]

That sucks, but I'm not sure why Johnson turned around and allowed himself to be hit legally by Kunitz. And then kind of braced himself awkwardly with the right leg, which is what buckled.

 

[Capella]

Well Tyler is probably only the 9th most important player now so that's not that bad. 

 

[irish eyes]

Olli maatta=awful burned AGAIN, just brutal to watch. Incredibly sloooowwwee

 

[Zegras11]

Bolts!

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Nice job there by Letang taking a run at Callahan (in retaliation?) and taking himself completely out of the play.

 

[JaxBill]

Really we're going there?

 

[poopdawg]

Really we're going there?

Yeah really.  There was a tribute night to one of your own beloved owners and they booed during the anthem and threw bracelets onto the ice with his name on them.  Unfortunately, Philly was the first thing I thought about when Bishop was carted off.  

 

[JaxBill]

The same owner where the Pens fan yelled #### the Flyetrs? Do go on

 

[irish eyes]

Crosby invisible, malkun apparently drunk as he has taken 200 shots not one even close and a nice penalty in the offensive zone. Hagelin the only one showing ANYTHING

 

[Zegras11]

More Bolts!

 

[Zegras11]

sweet shot

 

[irish eyes]

How does a team not show up for game1 conference finals, embarrassing

 

[fred_1_15301]

Well they better win game 2 or it will be a repeat of the Bruins/Pens series from a few years ago.

 

[poopdawg]

The same owner where the Pens fan yelled #### the Flyetrs? Do go on

No, the same owner where Flyers were screaming #### the Capitals during the anthem.  If you can provide a link of what you are insinuating, I will take it back.  

 

[Doctor Detroit]

Ben Bishop World Cup of hockey commercial should probably be pulled. 

 

[Dickie Dunn]

BTW ... can the Flyers and Penguins fans take their iFight to PM? Some of us want to be able to root for our Bolts in peace.

Peace.

 

[Capella]

Ben Bishop World Cup of hockey commercial should probably be pulled. 

 we literally just said that 

so Ben, excited about the World Cup?

 

[Dickie Dunn]

Good to see Johnson back, by the way.

 

[Bill Brasky]

Can't win with...Vasilevskiy?

 

[irish eyes]

So don't turn your back to thecheap shot lightning. Horrible game by pens but I call up sestito next game to stop this nonsense

 

[Bill Brasky]

Bolts!

 

[Capella]

So don't turn your back to thecheap shot lightning. Horrible game by pens but I call up sestito next game to stop this nonsense

And you can take that to the bank bromigo 

 

[Wingnut]

Can't win with...Vasilevskiy?

 

[Dickies]

Pretty much have to root for the Bolts and Blues at this point, I can't imagine a SCF between the Pens and Sharks where I probably would root for the Pens.  :X

You've got this all wrong GB

 

[Aaron Rudnicki]

Bolts Blues is meant to be

 

[poopdawg]

Can't win with...Vasilevskiy?

Kid played pretty good.  Couple shots I thought the Pens had but he had some nice saves.  

 

[flapgreen]

Sorry ### preds 

 

[chet]

Any word on Bishop?  Stamkos?  Stralman?

GO BOLTS!

 

[Capella]

Any word on Bishop?  Stamkos?  Stralman?

GO BOLTS!

Somehow the X-rays came back negative. May play in the ECF. Will play in the ECF. 

 

[Ghost Rider]

That looked awful, re: Bishop. Hope he is okay and can return as soon as possible. 

 

[Brady Marino]

Bolts Blues is meant to be

I just knew I was watching destiny when I saw the Blues and Bolts play in Tampa a few months ago.

 

[Wingnut]

Somehow the X-rays came back negative. May play in the ECF. Will play in the ECF. 

X rays dont show ligament damage though...it looked like a knee to me, which would need an MRI...but Im pretty sure they know more about the injury than I do, and what tests to run. Id be surprised if he plays again this series.

 

[RUSF18]

Unreal that Callahan isn't getting at least a game. 

 

[Dickie Dunn]

More unreal: Bishop apparently listed as "day-to-day" with a lower body injury.

 

[Doctor Detroit]

More unreal: Bishop apparently listed as "day-to-day" with a lower body injury.

Carlos Martinez had the same diagnosis recently. 

 

[rockaction]

I hate to break up Dr. D's 12:00 PM post, but we're up on this, right? 

 

[Zegras11]

Let's go Blues!

 

[Zegras11]

Yay Refs!
