[SwampD]

What a play by Burns.

 

It's hard to hate this Pens team.

It's rather easy for me.

NBC has their pucker lips on for the kid already. Get a room.

He is, kinda like the game's best player and everything. Too bad the NHL can't get out of their own way and scheduled the 1st game of the series against probably the most anticipated NBA game since Jordan.

[Iron Crotch]

Pittsburgh needs to leave the "yellow out" crowd look to Nashville.

 

...I just can't make myself root for the Pens. Go Sharks.

What's the NBA?

[darksabre]

Those are two weak goals by Murray.

[SwampD]

Thornton giving Malkin the business. Nice.

[qwksndmonster]

Backhand wraparounds are cool.

There are lots of fans like you. There are more that will choose the NBA over the NHL especially in these circumstances.

This is a GAME.

By far, most of the US and Mexico will.

 

Europe is asleep, but I'd put it at 50/50 there, too.  Sure, there are the Scandinavian countries, but there's also Spain, Greece (do they still have TV?), France, Italy, etc.

 

It's noon in Australia, and if they're watching any of this, they're watching basketball.

Idk. If Rust had his head up thats shoulder to chest i think

Canada is watching hockey...and my dvr is also ????

True. I also know I don't care,... and revel in our uniqueness.

Yeah man.

[Norcal]

Crosby almost from the impossible angle

[qwksndmonster]

Bonino to put the pens up with 2:33 to go.

 

Sharks on the PP with 2:09 to go.

[Norcal]

Hook? Idk

[Eleven]

I don't mind them calling the game the way it's supposed to be called--but they're starting *now*?

[Norcal]

OT advertising pays 1.5x

Jones did everything he could do

There is no advertising in OT.

 

Anyway.  That call may have benefitted the Pens after all; they could just shoot at the open net from their own end with impunity.

[qwksndmonster]

Not a good final 2 minutes for the Sharks. They were still dumping it in with the two man advantage. Ugh, so stupid.

:huh:

[SwampD]

So, did that game suck because there were only 5 goals scored? I'm not sure anymore. I thought it was pretty good.

[LGR4GM]

It's not about the goals scored, it's about the scoring chances.

It's going to be a pretty good series, but I'll be shocked if San Jose doesn't take this.

 

I ###### love hockey.

I want Pittsburgh to lose more than most things in this world. You can go right ahead and bet on the penguins winning this series, easily.
