Sens in 7. Sounds like a lock to win game 5 and 7 at least!
It's not impossible. He wasn't in game shape coming into training camp, which seemed kind of unusual for a guy like Richards, and he didn't play anywhere else during the lockout. It wouldn't be TOO shocking if he was injured the whole time. If he was, he might want to make sure the organization knows about it.

Bylsma couldn't counter-coach a mirror.

already mentioned that it was active players only, but looking at league records, Wayne had 40 playoff goals in 56 games? (Through his first four NHL seasons, or pre-1st cup he had 33GP, 26g, 48a)
You do realize that was a marketing gimmick right?
Pens had never beaten the Islanders in a playoff series before this year either.
We'll see what happens. I think you guys are being way too critical of Bylsma. Easy to see every mistake when the microscope is on you from every fanbase who wishes they had the Pens' talent.
"Tim, I want you to montage me like one of your French girls.

The series would be over by now If he hadn't made a fucking scrub mistake with a minute left.
Eh, not his fault Malkin didn't stick to Alfredsson. Plus, Michalek's pass had eyes.

It's his fault that they played a one man forecheck with the man advantage and a minute left.
The fact Malkin was out if they were just planning to turtle for a minute was bad move too, its not like weak defensive coverage is new for him.
I can't tell when you're being serious or trolling anymore. Being way too critical? 0-6 in elimination games at home is a big sample, it deserves criticism. His decision to ice the players he did and defend a lead in the game Ottawa won also deserves criticism. It's easy to look like an amazing coach when you ice Crosby, Letang, Malkin, Neal, Dupuis, Iginla, Oprik, etc.
Ask the late-90s and early-2000s Rangers how easy it is for a team of superstars to play together.
Yeah, guys. Bylsma is at a disadvantage having so much talent on his team!
It's really hard deciding who to choose to go first in a shootout when you have so many stars alright.
So fortunate the Leafs don't have that type of baggage to deal with.

Clearly.
Paulrus has half a team of rookies and AHLers. It's such an unfair advantage.
You jelly?
Doughty responds: "no u!"Galiardi called Quick a diver, Doughty responds:
Nah, I just remind myself that Fleury shit the bed and Habs tore the Pens a new ass hole in their last game at Mellon arena. Thanks Bylsma!
Should robably remind yourself of Fleury's Stanley Cup count, too! It's only fair.
I'm sure he looks at it every day and ask himself how he ever managed that one.

LOL at the look on Torts' face after Hamrlik took that penalty.

Oooh... I like that idea even better.Won't be around for the game but just in case:
Use the sweeping bear tonight!
Anybody blaming Torts for the Brad Richards situation is a moron. Torts has a lot of faults, and he's fucked with a lot of guys this year like Kreider and Miller, but Brad Richards isn't one of them. If anything he's been loyal to Richards to a fault.
Plus Richards loves Tortorella. He excited about coming to the Rangers so he could be reunited with Torts. He also, you know, won a Stanley Cup and a Conn Smythe under Tortorella.
But yeah, it's totally Torts' fault that he's garbage this year.
Clearly still suffering the effects of PCS.
:lol :lol
Ice cold. :lol
It took until 6 minutes into the game to get a LGR chant going? This crowd is even worse than last night.

Dan Bylsma problems:
"We're up 1-0 with 1 minute left. What could possibly go wrong ? Let's try and pad our stats some more."
God, remembered the asshole at the pub for the last game.
Part 1
Me: "Pass the puck back out! Defenders aren't even seeing it." - During the first period when nobody was doing anything.
Asshole: " You ever play hockey before? No? That's why. You don't understand."
Part 2
Me: "Man. Henrik is making some unbelievable saves, guy is outstanding."
Asshole: "Did you ever see him win a Stanley Cup before? No? You just don't understand."
Only thing that stopped me from punching him in the face would be getting all the pure hepatitis all over me from his filthy sailor blood.

Did they at least sell out tonight? I heard they didn't for Game 3.
Because I never played hockey or proclaimed Fleury to be the best goaltender of our generation.
The Hamrlik hate pleases me.
