How does one judge lopsided when your Pens have been the most penalized team in the league for 14/15? It has been chippy. I.E. Crosby's knee to Lundqvists head, Kunitz's constant goaltender interference that never gets called....you guys are in the blue paint all night and nothing gets called. Go back and watch the highlights...its obvious you are trying to run Lundqvist. I gotta admit that the Pens deserved most of their penalties, like EWA said though the Rags are getting away with a lot of the same stuff. Lapierre gets hooked on a short handed rush and their is no call (tonight Comeau didn't do half of that and got called for hooking), Hornqvist gets flattened in front of the net, then someone runs into Sid so he can't get to the puck (a couple minutes earlier Dumolin got called for flattening a Ranger in front of the net), which allows the Rangers to make a big outlet pass which leads to a goal. And why wasn't Lundqvist called for diving when Sid brushed by him? I'm just saying that they need to hold the Rangers to the same standard that they are holding the Pens. We shall know when we run through the crease. Last game your boy Kunitz has run Hank, Crosby kneed him in the head, and Hornqvist came in skates first, and then ran him over after he stopped Sids scoring chance.....its all give and take. I could care less but when we start buzzing the crease, and bumping the Flower swallow the whistle. Other than that, refs suck they are too inconsistent in this new NHL |

I could care less but when we start buzzing the crease, and bumping the Flower swallow the whistle. Other than that, refs suck they are too inconsistent in this new NHL One thing I was surprised at was, with all the abuse that Lundqvist has taken, Fluery really hasn't been roughed up. What game did Sid knee Hank? I must of missed that one. The only time I saw Sid make any contact at all was in game three when he brushed by Lundqvist and Hank started flopping like a fish out of water. It doesn't really matter anyway. The Pens played much better than I expected, they even one a game. Even though the Rags are up 3 - 1 it hasn't been easy for them, the Pens have made them work. I don't know why I've been complaining about the refs, because they are always that inconsistent, and, truth be told, it looked like they were trying to even things up tonight. |

The Sea of RED is rising  That kid is going to be a keeper. With Monahan and Bennett as their top 2 centers they will match up nicely with McDavid Draiasitl and RNH over the next decade |

Yes, agree on that point. I think AV is just telling them let's try and win this round 1 and move on. Or, the whole Kreider vs. Price thing is still fresh in everyone's mind. One thing I think your team misses, is that kid Staal; you know of the famed family. Just my 0.02, I know the whole contract thing but.... |

After all - it ain't like they'll make it past the second round. Might have to consider a #10 Katy Perry Ducks poster though... |

It's right below the Vikings. And curses don't work on teams you loathe so I know I'm safe. |

Sutter has been doing pretty good, and Jordan has definitely fallen off in Carolina. The trade wasn't so much about money as it was that Staal made it clear he wanted to play with brother Eric. (Might have had something to do with how Eric concussed Marc.) Shero just accommodated Staal on that one. |
