NHL Playoffs |OT2| stay salty, my friends

Pens (I'm an hour out from Pittsburgh), but I'm a lowly playoff fan for the most part.
Still unproven.
You gotta believe, dude. The miracle begins Friday.
Yeah it's pretty sad.
Good point. Not to mention how much Jagr is outperforming Iginla.

:lol I love all the people talking up Jagr after fucking blasting him last year when he came back to the league.

If there's anyone who knows what it's like for a series to be OVAAAAAAAAA(lots more As) against the Bruins in the playoffs, it's a Canucks fan!
I'll never hate Jagr.
I wasn't blasting him! I wanted the Flyers to bring him back!
Well...flyers fans liked him and still do. Really it's just pens fans that hated him the last few years.

If the Bruins win the Cup, they should all send Christmas cards to the Maple Leafs organization this year.
Pretty much. Credit to Rask, but the Pens are shooting a lot of pucks right at his logo. Felt the Pens deserved this one, though. Kinda annoying.
The Pittsburgh miracle begins on Friday, boys.

Leafs gifting the Bruins another cup? They don't even need Kaberle this time.

Pitt with 2 goals in nearly 11 periods. Nuts!
Go heat

Pittsburgh and San Antonio.
Let me guess. You're also a Yankees fan and a Patriots fan?
You know that it isn't hypocrisy if the people blasting him weren't the same as those now talking him up?
I think it's a little deceptive. Rask positioning is just so good right now. Seems like everything is right at his chest because of his positioning.
Hard to hate a legend.
Uuuugh. I'd be more annoyed if I wasn't so tired and empty after that. I think the Bruins are a dirty team who are lucky that Rask has seemed to find lightning in a bottle in games 1 and 3. Really feel this series could be 2-1 Bruins or 2-1 Pens right now. Blech.
Pens need more than two goals in three games, though. No debating it. Not sure why they can't repeat their regular season performances against the Bruins. Hopeful for game 4. Backs against the wall for real real now.
I always knew you cared. <3

Going to bed with a smile.
Pens fans sorrows making me hard and their tears keep me well lubricated.

BULL FUCKING SHIT
Maybe after the year but there was plenty of flyers fans when he first signed and other fans arguing with me that he was washed up trash. I remember people arguing with me that he would even reach double digits during the season with the flyers. I was pretty much the only one excited for his return.
Oh, I never thought of this... Boy is my face red!
Also unacceptable with the talent the Pens have. I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND, ACID.
And the team being outscored was #1 in Goals for in the season.
Fuuuuuu that was the beginning of the end in that flyers series
Born in Wisconsin, packers fan. Loved Pittsburgh since I was 7 (I'm 33) moved to San Antonio 14 years ago and became a spurs fan after I went to a game at the Alamo dome. Still a unhappy brewers fan though...
Enjoy your Stanley Cup, Hawks or Kings.

It's not like we needed him two years ago, either.
Hopefully it's not too serious or the Bs can buy him some time to heal up once this series is over.
He's clearly been our best player and we can't be down two centers in a Finals matchup against the Blackhawks or Kings. They will eat us alive.
Oh and yeah... there was that series 3 years ago where he went down and we lost 4 straight with Rask in net.
You're talking about people's skepticism regarding his ability to play before last season began? It's perfectly understandable that people expressed doubt that he would be able to consistently compete when he hadn't been in the league for years and was almost 40. Once the season started and he clicked with giroux and everyone saw he still had that crazy work ethic (and that it was rubbing off on his teammates) everyone checked their skepticism at the door and talked about how awesome selanne/jagr/whitney were.
Seriously the only passionate fanbase I remember during the whole thing was butthurt pens fans upset because jagr broke his promise to play for them or some bullshit.
Me...what have I done?
Here you go
Right... you didn't think of that. Thus ":lol I love all the people talking up Jagr after fucking blasting him last year". But no need to be embarrassed. Really common fallacy, old sport.
