CrazyCarl40 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Tough loss for the Isles today. They're going to be a tough out and a really good team going forward. Their team speed and skill is right up there. Nabokov has been pretty bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazyCarl40 Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 So you did not say they would be lucky to steal 1 now? I did say that. And that's the way it seemed after game 1. The Islanders that have played Game 2 and 3 did not play in game one. Maybe it was nerves. I don't know, but they are better than I though originally. It happens.

Don't know how the scouting staffs of every other team didn't notice Grabner's speed. COuld be the fastest skater in the NHL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JADEDGREEN Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Great to see Staal back, and a nice goal by Boyle, but the PP has been horrible, and for a team on the brink of elimination, they are getting beat all over the ice, and look totally uninspired. They need to start playing with some urgency, because they really have not played like they even belonged in the post so far in this series. I'm so sick of this brand of hockey, and if they are not moving forward, then Torts has to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't add anything to this.If this is Tortarella's plan you cannot waste another year of the King's prime with this bullsheet offense. He has to be gone.

JADEDGREEN Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 They played slightly better in the 2nd, but not for a full period, they scored on the PP, but let up and so they have nothing to show for it. It's going to be on Hank in the 3rd, he's going to have to stand on his head, and hope we get a lucky bounce in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JADEDGREEN Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Brassard has great presence with the puck in the offensive zone, he has been huge for us, what a steal! Great feed, and a nice goal by Asham! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shawn306 Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 The Rangers needed that win in the absolute worst way. I still have alot of concerns though with the Caps beating them to just about every puck and the lack of scoring from guys like Nash, Richards, Callahan. Throw Haglin in there to even though he did score on a deflection in game 1. I guess Stepan getting a goal was a good start but the Rangers cannot be depending on Aaron Asham, Brassard and Brian Boyle to be leading the way. The Caps are going to come out on fire tommorow night. Henrik needs to really be on top of his game if the Rangers are going ot have a chance to send this back to Washington 2-2.

JADEDGREEN Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Nash has really looked worse than Gaborik out there thus far. Richards was coming on at the end of the season, but it's painfully obvious that he is our 12 million dollar 3rd line center, behind Stepan and Brassard. The effort has been there from Callahan and Hags, hopefully the goals will come. It's going to all fall on Henrik though, it always is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JADEDGREEN Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'm pretty sure you need a goaltender to be the best team in hockey, way to go Islanders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl40 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 I'm pretty sure you need a goaltender to be the best team in hockey, way to go Islanders. He has more rings than your goalie. And his defense is leaving him hung out to dry on turnovers. And yes, the Islanders are taking their game to the Pens, but the Pens are all out of sorts in the defensive end. It's weird because they were so good in the regular season. You should be more concerned with your team. You don't see me posting here about your team and their offensive woes.

The Penguins were the best team in hockey for long stretches this season and finished well above everyone else in the Eastern Conference. I fail what is wrong with that statement as it is a fact. I'm not sure what your problem is with facts. Of course you wouldn't post that. The Rangers are a 6 seed. After the 5-0 win in game 1 I thought the Islanders would be lucky to steal one. They have proven me wrong, which I said before. Do you have a reading comprehension problem? And I would like for you to still find a post where I said the Penguins were the best team last season.

JohnnyHector Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Malkin is such a pussy. You can only facewash a guy for so long without him looking to retaliate and when noted superheavyweight fighter Hamonic drops his gloves, Malkin needs to be rescued by two teammates. He then goes to show what a gutless puke he is by "punching" Hamonic from behind while he's being held. I won't deny that they have a boatload of talent, but man, this Pens team is immensely unlikeable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawn306 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Bylsma almost has to go with Vokoun in game 5. This series is starting to look alot like Philly last year. Scoring lots of goals, Fleury is struggling, and the Isles (Like the Flyers last year) are starting to get under Pittsburgh skin. I still expect Pittsburgh to win the series, but I would not be surprised in the least if this goes 7 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazyCarl40 Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Vokoun is 3-8 lifetime in the playoffs and hasn't played since April 22nd. Switching goalies won't stop turnovers nor will it make the defense in front of the goalie any faster to keep up with the isles skaters. The Pens haven't been playing well in this series since Game 1, when Fleury had a shutout. The Pens just need to get their collective heads out of their behinds and play some defense and take the game to the islanders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently you should brush up on the history because I never once said in the playoffs thread the Pens were the best team. Go ahead and look.

Ah yes, so once again I imagined you saying the playoffs were a different animal, and that the pens were clearly the best team in the east, blah blah blah. Too bad the Devils are out, I'm sure GATA remembers. Okposo scored 2 from behind the net, and Fluery's positioning and technique have been awful.
