Pens reaching peak BM levels by throwing these last two to Washington to break their back on the road in game 7. It is genius really.

Absolutely brilliant pro wrestling psychology, really. It's like kicking out at one after taking your opponent's finisher, leaving them stunned despite their domination. And then coming back to wreck them with your own five moves of doom as they wonder just how the hell they lost.

 

[PillarEN]

Oh shit. Yeah the Pens are screwed.

 

[Gunstar Ikari]

I know better than to bet on the Caps, but it would be cool if they actually managed to defeat Pittsburgh

 

[Clydefrog]

hnnghh

 

[zroid]

RIP Pens

 

[Line_HTX]

What's wrong with leaving early at that deficit? Better to beat the traffic and stuff.

The 3-1 series lead curse streak continues.

 

[Alucard]

The Pens just slipped doubt into the Caps' minds, friends. A reminder that they still have a long way to go, and their banners don't mean much.

Game seven should be fun.

 

[Parch]

I'm a bit surprised, but I wouldn't write off the Pens just yet. Easy enough to shrug it off and get their act together for game 7.

 

[Fate_Shirou]

reminds me of that series against the rangers in 2014 >.<
had a 3-1 series lead and lost 3 in a row >.<

I figured that's what was going to happen tonight.

They just got outplayed out of the gate.

 

[SuperSonic1305]

Leafs never lost by more than 1 goal. Leafs > Pens.

 

[MetatronM]

Don't know what to think about this Caps-Pens series at this point. On the one hand, never bet on the Caps. On the other hand, I have watched the Pens blow a 3-1 series lead in the recent past, so it's not like they're immune to choking.

 

[Alucard]

I raise you...

Is there any possible scenario where both teams get eliminated?

I remember when boston was up 3-0 on philly and philly brought it back. Even after being down 3-0 in game 7 too, IIRC.

Must've been like '09 or '10?

Yeah, hard to see how this one will end. I could see a blowout victory for either side in game seven. You just never know. If the Caps do win, I'll actually be cheering for them to win the Cup.

I raise you...

You cant raise something thats constantly falling

 

[Alucard]

You cant raise something thats constantly falling

Har-dee-har-har.

 

[Line_HTX]

I mean, the Pens have beaten the Caps on the road in Game 7 before, so it's not really a sure change for the Caps.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

He doesn't want to fall.

 

[Alucard]

He doesn't want to fall.

That's more like it. This man gets it.

[CreeperBlocks]

Two Game sevens. I am excited

 

[Line_HTX]

How 'bout those massive layoffs, ey?

 

[Foggy]

Listen up son, that kind of foul-mouthed hostility might fly in Calgary or Edmonton, but Pittsburgh expects a higher level of discourse.

 

[Alucard]

They beat themselves, man. it's not far from the truth.

 

[Error1355]

As a Pens fan I'm feeling very sheepish.

 

[Pikma]

How 'bout those massive layoffs, ey?

It's like that time the Avs beat themselves

 

[Fata1moose]

It's like that time the Avs beat themselves

It's time(s) plural, you jackass.

 

[Marvie_3]

That was ESPN's hockey coverage quality before the layoffs too.

 

[SmackCrackleNPop]

As a Pens fan I'm feeling very sheepish.

I'm almost used to it.

 

[MultiJhonny]

I'm almost used to it.

Ducks can feel like sheep?

[Calamari41]

Says the kidnapper.

Is it kidnapping when you steal your own kid back from a den of feral cats?

 

[Fate_Shirou]

Says the kidnapper.

kidnapper D: ???

 

[Marvie_3]

Thats not how Creeper tells it.


And im no lawyer but im pretty sure that counts as kidnapping.


Or catnapping.

I followed but if it's to ask permission to use content, don't bother. The answer is no. This is why you should have reporters.

Looooool

 

[RaySpencer]

Something interesting I've noticed about both Calgary and Edmonton fans overall is that they seem to be incredibly angry for some reason. What makes it worse is that the slightest bit of success (like scoring a goal or winning a game) marries this incredible anger with an equally incredible sense of smugness and entitlement. A truly winning combination.

Is there something in the water up in Alberta? I always thought that Canadians were supposed to be nice to a fault, but denizens of Alberta seem different for some reason.

HEEEEYYY!!! What the heck!

No joke, I mean it and it absolutely fascinates me.

You'll see it in here if the Oilers win game 7. People we've never seen before will be in here swearing up a storm telling us to go fuck ourselves and burn in hell. I can't wait to see it.

Like, Kings fans are absolute d-bags, but they're not angry. They're having the time of their lives. The anger I'm talking about is palpable, and I have only seen it like this from the two Alberta teams.

Edit: RaySpencer is good people.

Oh ok, were besties again.

 

[Calamari41]

Having lived in the Pacific Northwest, I can confirm that Moose are fucking terrifying. They're mountains of muscle and bone. And apparently they can run that fast.
