Re: Rinaldo, general cheapness & goaltending:


This is why you should never get to cocky in this sport. The shoe can fit on the other foot in a hurry. To claim "your team" is above the antics is just plain wrong. Nobody knows how pros will act when their back is against a wall or when they feel embarrassed.

When you are on top, NEVER, kick the man who is down on your way there. Words to live by.

Neal is going to have another gear on Friday. I really hope we make this a series. Potential to be one of the most exciting ever if it goes 7. Not the best, from a well played hockey standpoint obviously, but entertaining nonetheless.

+1

Pens brought the A++++ game and the Flyers never showed up.

I would still rather be up 3 games to 1 then win game 4 10-3.

All I want for the next 15 mins is nothing stupid from either team. Rinaldo should be replaced by JVR without question. Zac did nothing suspension worthy but I will pay the league to suspend him.

Good win Pens...

Good luck Friday night and Lets go Flyers!

this is what you might call an "ass kicking" in some circles.

So would we.

However a beating like this on your ice can sway momentum in a hurry.

And fleury finally seems to have calmed down and settled in a bit. Without the 5 on 3s this game is even further apart.

thank gawd!!!

What a strategic time out by Ballsmell there... Just a little slap in the face

stopping the tic tac toe play of the flyers helps so much!!

I also agree with this. Didn't see a stick contact him in the face, was actually surprised to see Michalek hurt. Maybe I didn't see a good angle?

and that's what needs to happen. MAF needs to make some saves coming home here.

this PA series is thick rich and chocolatey

I can only hope that the Pens do something stupid to get the Flyers riled up for game 5 ... but I just don't see that happening tonight.

Good chance of that happening - 11 and change left in the game

And we need Malkin to score so we can repay the 2 hat tricks in one game favor.

This is the kind of game they needed tonight. Wash away all that putrid crap from games 1-3. LOOOONNNG way to go, but a good first step. Just gotta win one at a time.

Who else thinks Bryz's foot is really bothering him?

guys,
please slow down.

so is simmonds and kubina going to go for roughing? nope

Not as much as his head is. The really, really, really greast news is that Bob showed no better, so they'll be sticking with him.

why is cooke getting thrown out?? for taking sticks to his head..

How is Cooke the one to get tossed? Just send them both down the runway and be done.

edit: never mind. that's good officiating. keep a lid on it.
