Interesting to see so much Pens hating. I thought that was just for us Pens fans who are tired of seeing this team loaded with talent under achieve every spring. Hopefully the changes that are needed will finally be made.
I really wanted to see the Pens win and make it to the cup against the Blackhawks. We just got back from Mexico and hung out with a guy who is the Pittsburgh NBC Sports Producer so it would have been awesome to see the Hawks and Pens make the finals. I truly was amazed at Crow last night. I have never jumped on the Crawford bandwagon but he has been solid overall since joining the team and already has his name on the cup. Seeing Kane rush in on that loose puck left me knowing before it went in that the game was over, never underestimate a kid with a beard and a mullet. This year has been some of the best playoff hockey in my life, Minnesota has become impressive and we have seen plenty of long series.
The Wild did much better then most thought they would. In all honesty they out played the Hawks in this series but just couldn't solve Crawford. Specially last night. The saves he made was impressive!! Easily could've been a 4-1 victory last night. That's hockey for ya though. Now that the Wild are done I can now get some sleep. Sucks getting up at 1:45 in the morning for work when the games get over at 11:00. Best of luck Hawk fans the rest of the way. Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk
The kids did outskate us Steve, there is no denying that. I'm not sure if Crawford finally fed off the Crawford, Crawford chants, things like that rarely shake him up like it does when we do it to Luongo.
Yep. Maybe we fired him up. Lol! I was a little surprised by Quinvilles press conference when asked about the series and the Wild. Not much praise was given to the Wild from him unless I missed that part somewhere. Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk
I didn't see it, right after the handshakes I turned on some jacked up show called Alaska Wild or something with a Family trying to build a cabin in the remote woods of Alaska.
No doubt there! I gotta say Pomenville sucked in this series. Our top goal scorer during the regular season. He didn't show up none. He had numerous chances to score. Terrible series for him. Sent from my XT907 using Tapatalk
Yes the Wild did out play the Hawks for the most part in this series. In the end it came down to goal tending, Crawford was unbelievable last night. Good luck to the Hawks the rest of the way. But with the young talent we have on this Wild team, We Will Be Back!!
I think the Wild will be in the mix in the years to come. They were way better than I expected. No disrespect, just didnt follow them much. They are a goalie away. Glad to see Pitt out. I did want to see the Hawks vs Pitt tho and maybe we couldve got revenge over the 90's sweep. Hopefully Boston is out next. Hopefully Shaw is back soon. We really missed him in that series. I think Sharp missed Shaw the most! They are keeping that injury quiet.
My stomach is in knots......im so pumped for tonight's game!!!!!! Game 7 one of the fiercest rivalries in the NHL. It's gonna be classic!! Will the bruins first line EVER show up? tonight is the night! Woooooooo!!!
That late goal may give them momentum going in the third. Hope the Habs can hang on. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
