I can't lie. I kind of wish that Cookie got a bigger piece of Giroux behind the net. Not a Cooke from last season type hit, but one that put Giroux on his ass. He has had much too easy of a series.

Picked a fine time for poor sleep patterns to catch up with me...woke up with less than a minute to go.

Guess I'll have to watch the replay.

There's still 60 minutes to play, every hit counts. Especially if you can take a star. I don't want him elbowing craniums, but he could have taken a big chunk of Giroux I say go for it. I thought the Pens were way to easy on St. Louis last season, and so far this series Giroux has had nightly vacations. If the Pens really want to win they have to make Giroux earn every inch.

I didn't notice if Cooke came up high or what, but I say attempt the hit, if he takes it clean even at that time of the game I applaud him. If it was high, then the usual.

The message still has to be sent.

agreed.

And I think they needed to call something on Cooke there at the end. Clearly targeting Giroux's head with about 4 seconds to play and the puck behind the Flyers net.

- FlyerGuy


Quit being such a baby. You clowns always need to deflect a loss with the refs should have called something on XXX for targeting Mr. Embellish's head.

They also needed to call a trip on Coburn in the closing 1:35. See, I can play that game to.

Haha, in the NSH-DET game, whoever scored first won every game.

Complete opposite here.

One of the guys on the Flyers thread said the NHL needed to look into that Cooke hit at the end...I mean really, its such a joke.

Anyone have a copy of the game tonight?

Interested in seeing the hit Hartnell gave to Kennedy in the 3rd before Kennedy slashed him.

- sbrubakerjr


He hit him from the side...a lot of contact with the head. Kennedy was stupid to swing with the stick in retaliation.

I'm being objective. There was no reason for him to take a run at Giroux there with 4 seconds left and the puck at the other end of the ice. It was just dirty.

Did they miss a call on Coburn? Absolutely. The Flyers got a big break there.

Flyers fans are the biggest whiners in the game today. Everything is a shot to the head; needs to be reviewed by the NHL, but when Schenn comes in at 110 mph; flies in the air from three yards out and intends to injure Martin, its ok? They are the most ridiculous fan base in the game, especially considering their history with dishing it out.

It's not something the league should look into ... so some of those guys are overreacting big time. Still, a very needless hit.

Thought I certainly saw head contact. However, I didn't see 2 things.

1.) Penguins fans crying about the hit.
2.) Flyers fans acknowledging the hit ever happened.

So was Schenn's charge on Martin. So was Hartnell's nice little hit on Kennedy before he got called for a slash. Quit being a baby. Everything is dirty when Pittsburgh hits; but its clean when Philly hits? Got it.
