  1. SOMEBODY CALL THE COPS!!! CROSBY GOT ROBBED!!! and Malkin should have gotten a penalty for that jab
  2. pelley, 2 min for back checking though I'm sure Greg Millen would agree
  3. Think Malkin gets dealt this season, especially if Pens struggle out of the gate through the first six or seven weeks?
  4. Tim and Sid had Grapes on their show last week when the ad first aired. Grapes thought it was great.
  5. So you want to take PK off the 1st PP unit powerplay, and double-shift Markov - your oldest d-man - and Beaulieu - who's still trying to solidify himself as a top-4 blueliner. Not sure if that is going to pay off. I am in agreement that Markov and Subban should/could be split up. For the past couple of seasons, the opposition has done a pretty good job in taking away the point shot from Subban, and he seems to either skate his way into clear ice or try to force a bad shot through. And he never seems to be able to set-up for a proper one-timer from the point, at least not with Markov. He may have to take a page out of Markov's playbook and get a little more creative. First, if the shot isn't available, you could always try the pass off the backboards. Markov was very good at shooting the puck wide enough and at the right angle that it would come back out to the low winger on the other side, with the goalie out of position. Second, instead of staying out at the point, or at the very least above the circles, try working the puck to the forward on the other side, and then sliding in on the blind side uncovered. At the very least, it keeps the forward covering Subban from staying high and making him move more, which in turn might allow for a little more open space at the point. On the whole, there really isn't much movement from any of the blueliners on the powerplay, and Beaulieu is more of a pass-oriented player than he probably could be. If the blueliners moved around a little more, and kept the penalty killers moving with them, it should either open up the middle of the ice for the forwards to get shots or free themselves up.
  6. Tokarski did not have a good game this afternoon, had a bad third period.
  7. Tulo hits a 3-run homer, Nays take a 5-0 lead top of sixth
  8. wtf was Subban trying to do, getting condon his stick back.
  9. They brought in Ramsay this season to work on it. They're not generating anything from the point, and Petry and Beaulieu are afraid to shoot the damn puck.
  10. TEX just walked in a run, Jays up 2, bases loaded, 1 out, top of 4th
  11. when they can't score on the powerplay, you can afford to be a little more aggressive I'll give them a few more games to work the kinks out. Notice how the PP went in the dumper when Muller left for Raleigh?
  12. He still thinks it was a penalty, not a clue why 2 mins for backchecking
  13. Senility must be contagious if he thinks checking a guy with the puck is a penalty
  14. someone wanna tell Millen that Subban wasn't on the ice for that ruckus is senility contagious?
  15. I want to see the end of the commercial where Miss Woods gives her an F. Miss Woods: This is a science fair, not philosophy fair. Better luck next time.
  16. or ten. Not a lot to boast about yet, but there's still nothing to get overly worried about either. Even though they didn't carry the play, but they didn't let the game get away from them.
