2017 NHL Playoff

[Biggems]

In all seriousness though, we better get our act together. 10 shots for the game is not going to cut it. Yes nashville played very good D, but we were way too pass happy in their zone. We need to force the issue more. Also, better discipline, they scored 2 pp goals after really stupid penalties......then, the 3rd, after we lollygagged back as our pp ended.

I though my hearing was going when Pittsburgh got their 4th goal and they said that was their shot since the 1st period...you are correct, they better play better.

Pittsburgh up 4-1, 3 quick goals in the 2nd, Rinne doesn't look the same as earlier in the playoffs...

3rd.....

btw, I am not all that impressed with the Nashville D. I feel that Ottawa was a much more formidable D. I guess the offenses in the West are not as good as the ones in the East. The Pens by far had the best offense in the NHL, so I wasn't as worried about Nashville.

Offsides Pittsburgh, no goal.....darn, I was excited for HornQ

 

[Trouty]

This has been horrible.

Rinne better pull his head out of his *** in Nash

You guys had ten shots in game 1. It's Rinne, not the D.

Yes the 3rd, brain cramp...lol

10 shots, but that was because they were overpassing instead of taking the shots that were there.....reminded me of the Spurs, passing up a good shot, trying to force a pass for a great shot, only to end up with a turnover.....

plus, Crosby seems to only want to pass right now. I know he is getting lots of attention, but we need him to take at least 5 shots a game....it sets up his passing even better IMO.

The Canadian Broadcasters think he looks tired?

You were over passing because there were no shooting lanes.

 

[lukin2006]

It'll be very difficult for Nashville now...

Well, let's hope he takes some ambien and sleeps for the next two days and rests the heck up, Lukin

Cuz this is boring. I want a 7 game series, darnit!

 

[Trouty]

It will. Bad center depth is getting them, too. But Rinne, just wow.

Still, as long as they win both their home games, we'll still have a series. If PIT takes one, it's over.

you shoot anyway.....might get a nice big fat juicy rebound

Fair enough

all Pittsburgh has to do is win in Pittsburgh.

 

[Trouty]

all Pittsburgh has to do is win in Pittsburgh.

That would at least mean a game 7, then. That's all I really want, Nash winning is just gravy.

Side note.

Maybe the Dallas Stars can become relevant next year
