Like he can write...

if that (frank)up could even string 10 pages together id jump off the betsy ross.

honestly they gotta drop the gloves they should strip the bonnet too

I thought that was implemented as a penalty this year? Pretty smart on Bellemare not getting the extra 2.

Lurked in the Pens blog... female doging about PEB not taking his helmet off, glossing over the fact that frenchie just blew up farhmanmananan's face
- Yosimar89

Is that no longer a penalty because the Pens dude clearly took his off long before PEB.

That hit by Rinaldo was garbage. I can't see it any other way. Hit him from behind, left his feet, etc.
- johndewar

has to leave his feet he's 4 foot 8 on skates

First star. +1 and changed the momentum of the game. Took out Letang.

- MJL

I don't care about Letang or any of those other guys. They wouldn't care if it was one of our guys. I've seen the Penguins do plenty of dirty stuff. They've employed Matt Cooke, James Neal, Dainius Kasparaitis, Ulf Samuelson and Colby Armstrong for years. They had one of the Rutuu bumholes play for them too.

You knew that was coming.

Good luck to that dude going back to the AHL and telling guys like Rosehill and Stortini how he got his faced caved in by a French dude.

Absolutely along with Del Zotto and MacDonald. Manning played a solid game as well.
- MJL

Luke had a couple bad shifts to start the 3rd but he did play well.....the rest of the D played pretty good tonight.....Macdonald wasn't noticeable ....and I mean that as a compliment....was solid tonight.
Liked Manning's game as well....got the puck through to the net a few times....

Eh, i doubt PEB even knew wtf the rules were seeing as he's been in Europe his entire career, he just saw this bafoon frothing at the mouth and he shut him up good

Pretty sure you're not allowed to doff the helmets any more. Concussion risks.

Zac Rinaldo: "I changed the whole game, man. Who knows what woulda happened if I didn't do what I did?"

Damn you Jsaq.. Leight

i really want so badly to believe thats not true.

i am a snooty little broad at starbucks right now because i literally cannot even.

Those platform shoes were probably badass back in the day.

that is worrisome if he really believes that. The game could've been and probably should've been over right there in the first. After his suspension is over, I'd sit him a couple more games for talking stupid.
- MJL

Talking stupid? If he said that, truly said that, his level of stupid is off the charts

oh just go shine your three rings

Apparently Rinaldo was joking. But the quote is 100% accurate.

I hope the NHL makes a little joke, too.

"For a dangerous hit from behind, direct head contact and a late hit, plus being a repeat offender, Zac Rinaldo will be suspended for 8 games. For being a moron and joking about the hit after the game, Rinaldo will get an additional 5 games"

- SuperSchennBros

I remember him going after Timo....so not a lot of love for the guy but I don't like cheap hits to the head......I really wonder if Rinaldo will ever get it ?

What I Find most amazing is that the Flyers got out shot 17-3 in the first period. Final shot total was FLyers 40, Pens 35. Flyers out shot them 37 to 18 over the final two periods and OT. Of course the Flyers back to back PP's in OT helps that.

If the Pens rung up 2 or 3 on that 5 minute major he earned, he could joke his way to Lehigh Valley.

which is completely undermined by his table cloth suit.

was it really that bad? i mean i did only see it once...
