Did any word come down yet on Cooke? Haven't seen anything.

I see Getzlaf is out , day to day.

Haven't heard anything yet. Had an in person meeting. Rumors are its going to be pretty significant. Possibly, largest ever suspension for knee on knee hit.

After a day to get over last night I think the following...

1. The season comes down to tomorrow.

why Thursday?

i dont know how many times i have to offer to take him off of your hands.
- stayinthefnnet

No. We're keeping Read and taking Niskanen

why Thursday?
- watsonnostaw

After 1

Oshawa - 1
North Bay - 1

Laughton with an assist

They must have gotten that goal late.

It would be disappointing to see Oshawa get swept.

Obviously it's speculative. But what would happen with Matt Read's point totals, if he played on a top line with a player like Claude Giroux, and got first unit PP time?

The Blue Jackets just went pop

wait til you see what the flyers do friday

He won't be Vanek and, therefore, will be useless.

i know you are. bastards. and i mean (frank) neal because hes given himself a reputation, but those 2 calls on the pens were pretty weak. im not trying to cry for some anti pens bias or anything, but more just that once again, the refs prioritize the score and game situations over just about any other extraneous factors in making calls

There it is. Comeback is on.

Power play Laughton to Dal Colle with 15 seconds left.

Welcome to the world of bad reputations. When a player falls down around Kneel, they will assume he did something to them.

North Bay has played really well in the series, they deserve to win any and every adjustment Oshawa has tried to make they'd limited or stopped.

He won't be Vanek and, therefore, will be useless.

I think that 30-30 would be realistic.

I like Dal Colle. I don't want him to go to the Isles. I don't want to have to root against him.

There it is. Comeback is on.

Courtesy of Neal and lousy goaltending by Fleury.

totally understand. and like i said, im okay with it to an extent. its annoying as a fan, but hey no one made your reputation but yourself.

what bothers me more was the kunitz one. called solely for the fact that a 5 on 3 at that juncture in time has a fairly good chance of ending the game.

They need to get one before the period ends. It's not like the Pens are great at holding leads. A goal before intermission will keep the crowd in the game.
- PhillySportsGuy

I think theyre cooked. 6 goals in less than a period, last game was a soul crusher

There was something beautiful about watching the puck trickle in as Fleury has no idea where it is.

Yeah. Might as well just let it go.

Every team that has led 3-1 in this series has gone on to lose the game. It's happened for the 4th time tonight.

I tuned in late...I'm concerned about Pierre. Is he sick? He's talking with more of a monotone and less enthusiasm than usual, and it's a Pens game.

Did he and Sid have a tiff?

Yeah. Might as well just let it go.
- PhillySportsGuy

it was about as blatant of a slash, on the puck, and 5 feet from the ref, i dont know how they wouldve let that go and not seemed incompetent. this at least is an attempt at being underhanded, but its annoying beyond belief.
