1/7: Penguins

[Dropkick Izzy]

Holy shit

 

[FelixMantilla]

Did the defense fall asleep there?

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Jeeesh

 

[FelixMantilla]

Of course no cross-checking penalty there.

 

[kenneycb]

Can't wait for Eddie, Pierre and Doc to be amazed by Julien's 3 F, 1 D formation. 
 
Well, damn. 

Yeah I was all ready to turn it into a drinking game.
 
Perron just took out Kelly pretty good in front.

 

[cshea]

LOOCH

 

[FelixMantilla]

FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH FUCK YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[LogansDad]

Please be a goal, please be a goal, please be a goal.

 

[McDrew]

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!??????

 

[kenneycb]

Hooray?

 

[BoSoxFink]

Ohhhh that's tough to tell

 

[veritas]

Huge that they called it a goal on the ice. I think it probably hit his stick but the replays don't seem conclusive.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

No way conclusive.  That's a goal.

 

[Mr. Wednesday]

Eek, close call.

 

[cshea]

I think that should stand.

 

[eddiew112]

Tough to overturn this one

 

[McDrew]

I would love for a call to go the Bruins way for once.

 

[PedroSpecialK]

Lucic was possessed all night. Hard to believe they could overturn this based on the angles they had

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Of course no cross-checking penalty there.

Perron fitting in nicely I see.

 

[The Napkin]

I'm frankly not 100% sure it hit anything

 

[LogansDad]

That's the glove.

 

[cshea]

I'm assuming Bergy told the refs he didn't touch it. 

 

[Myt1]

I haven't seen an angle that shows anything definitive yet.

 

[ngruz25]

If that's a goal, the Bruins were so absurdly lucky tonight. They were gifted a no-goal call, and I'm like 90% sure that went on Bergy. How did it deflect to the right off the glove?

 

[swingin val]

looks like it hit the glove of the Pitt defender

 

[Reardon's Beard]

Oh FUCK YEAH!!!

 

[The Napkin]

Yep. No way it's a clear thing so call on the ice should stand. If you have to look this long by definition it's not definitive. But....

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Wooooo!!!!

 

[Ferm Sheller]

BELOW!

 

[Frito Tankona]

Yes!

 

[LogansDad]

FUCK YES!!!!!

 

[Stitch01]

Nice slow roll there

 

[eddiew112]

Woooo! Well deserved with the way they played the last 25 minutes

 

[kenneycb]

I'm frankly not 100% sure it hit anything

It changed direction so unless it's Roger McDowell shooting the puck, it hit something.

 

[ngruz25]

Lol unexpected result, I'll take it! Feels like a miracle 2 points.

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Maybe we'll look back fondly as this being the turning point in the season.

 

[Nomar813]

Well, in that case, Bergy!!

 

[The Napkin]

Wow. I think that's the worst call possible there. The stick was pretty clearly high no?
But whatever, that's 2 huge points. Now get 2 more tomorrow and I might start to be impressed a little

 

[PedroSpecialK]

YAAAA

 

[Ferm Sheller]

Huge because there's no way they were winning a shootout.

 

[cshea]

Didn't play very well and didn't really deserve 2 points, but a win is a win. Maybe that'll at least allow them to settle down. 

 

[The Napkin]

It changed direction so unless it's Roger McDowell shooting the puck, it hit something.

It dipped on him...

 

[LogansDad]

That's 6 points in 5 games folks.
 
Hasn't always been pretty, but I'll take it.

 

[Dropkick Izzy]

Mario is chewing on Bettman's oversized ears as we type. Love it.

 

[kenneycb]

It dipped on him...

 

[Dalton Jones]

That's the Lucic we all want to see. And whole team showed forechecking and back checking grit and won battles on the boards. Very satisfying win.

 

[SoxFanInPdx]

Great win, love to beat the Pens in their house. There's hope for this team.

 

[RedOctober3829]

Now need 2 vs nj.

Soooooo.... NHL says inconclusive that it hit stick or puck. So why did ref say it hit the stick?

To drive down Looch's trade value. lt would have been his goal otherwise. </tinfoilhat>
