That game pretty much summed up the Pens playoffs. They can get outplayed for stretches but they bury their chances and still win.

Amazing team.

Kessel robbed last year, Geno this year

Kessel was awesome in last year's playoffs, but that was absolutely Crosby's team last season. He made that engine run from top to bottom.

I'd probably have given it to Malkin too this year, but Crosby was key to a lot of the Pens' run this year too, so can't be upset.

Here we goooo. I say he gives it to Hainsey first. Or Letang?

So a player skates into the zone, skates skates skates, pass here and there, player scores, but the goal is refused because it turns out it was offside ten seconds ago. But score right after the ref whistled when he obviously, without even a slight doubt, should not have whistled, CAN'T CALL IT OFF, IMPOSSIBLE, IT CANNOT BE DONE.

As much as I hate the outcome these two scenarios aren't even comparable.

Shitty positioning aside, once the whistle is blown, you can't really expect the players to continue playing.

Nothing at all could have been done by anyone whatsoever to prevent that goal.
