Eastern Conference Quarterfinals

[The Napkin]

“Took a shot” instead of “shoots” bothers me way more than it probably should

 

[Jordu]

What a game.

 

[The Napkin]

Bad change led to the 3 on 2

 

[Boston Brawler]

Damn

 

[cshea]

Put pucks to the net and see what happens.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Bleh

 

[NYCSox]

That was ridiculous. Especially after last night's Bruins game. Ah puck luck.

 

[Maximus]

UGH, Caps back in the series.

 

[Winger 03]

UGH, Caps back in the series.

Caps are like pre-2004 Red Sox. They suck you in just long enough to crush you later. Nothing to see here, they will wear themselves out in the first round just to face a well rested team in the second and lose.

 

[The Napkin]

Goudas took out Couturier at the morning skate

And Couturier's out for tonight.

Hornqvist is out for the Pens after being hit into the boards from behind. Where he was given an embellishment penalty.

 

[cshea]

Be nice if we got a competitive game in this series.

 

[The Napkin]

"All Flyers after the first tv timeout"

5 seconds later, 2 on 1, 2-0 Pens.

 

[Bob Montgomerys Helmet Hat]

The TB game is on the Golf Channel. Makes sense.

 

[cshea]

Offside challenge! Woo!

Got the call right in less than 30 seconds. Amazing.

 

[Salem's Lot]

NJ outplaying Tampa and down 2-1.

 

[Salem's Lot]

Kucherov with a cheap shot elbow to the head of Vatanen. No call.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Have to believe he'll be suspended a game. Looked pretty similar to Doughty

 

[Salem's Lot]

Now Killeen with a blatant board. At least the refs saw that one.

 

[The Napkin]

getting nice and chippy

 

[The Napkin]

Wow, Kucherov went down pretty easy on that "shove". That's embarrassing to call only one there.

 

[NYCSox]

And it's 4-0 Pens. Hextall suiting up might have helped - these goalies are awful.

 

[The Napkin]

That ought to be a suspension for Read. Bullshit slash at the back of his knee.

 

[LogansDad]

Man, I was so excited for the Pittsburgh vs Philly series, too.

I feel like we got totally screwed over as hockey fans.

 

[Greg29fan]

Pens and Flyers have played four games in Philly this year; the Pens are 4-0 and have outscored Philly 20-4.

 

[Boston Brawler]

TB scores an empty netter. 3-1

 

[Silverdude2167]

Tampa just won every battle for the last 5 minutes of this game. NJ could never get anything set up.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Hope we can finish our series in 5. Looks like TB will.

 

[Boston Brawler]

Washington about to tie up their series. Lame

 

[The Napkin]

Pens have cmoe alive the last 5 or so

 

[The Napkin]

and just like that...

 

[LogansDad]

Sydney Crosby: Soccer Professional

 

[The Napkin]

Phila-duh-phia takes a stupid roughing penalty when they're about to get a pp becase FLYERGRIT then take a trip on the 4 on 4 and now they have 1:30 of a 4 on 3 to kill.
Smart hockey.

 

[The Napkin]

Looks like they're going to get away with it

 

[LogansDad]

Mother F

 

[cshea]

Total bludgeoning this period.

 

[The Napkin]

Huh. Maybe they should keep taking penalties.

 

[cshea]

Lazy back check there from the Pens forwards.

 

[cshea]

Pure chaos in the Flyers end

 

[Jordu]

Whoa. Flyers take a 3-2 lead with 1:15 to play.

 

[The Napkin]

Holy shit Neuvirth

 

[LogansDad]

Game 6, yay. Here's hoping for a 7.

 

[Ed Hillel]

Nice.

Pitt is so top heavy.

 

[Greg29fan]

1-3 last year the first time they could close a team out last year, guess that's not changing.

 

[cshea]

Today in “Tales of NHL Playoff scheduling”

Two games at 3pm, one at 8.

 

[Lupe Whalewatch]

Today in “Tales of NHL Playoff scheduling”

Two games at 3pm, one at 8.

Just came here to post that as well...incompetence in its highest form

 

[Boston Brawler]

Matt Calvert with the worst breakaway goal in history to tie it at 2.

 

[Ed Hillel]

The refs just reviewed a high sticking? Right call, so good at the end, but how can that happen?

 

[Boston Brawler]

And they have them a makeup call a minute later for a trip that was really just crossed feet.

 

[Ed Hillel]

And they have them a makeup call a minute later for a trip that was really just crossed feet.

I thought so at first, but on replay looks like stick hit his skate a bit, which caused his skates to cross.

 

[Ed Hillel]

omg wut

That save was absurd.
