Penguins vs Panthers Open Thread

Pittsburgh Penguins (33-21-5) vs Florida Panthers (27-28-6)
In Pittsburgh at 7:30pm
Watch on FSN/Center Ice or listen online at WXDX.com
NOTES
A win tonight and a Montreal and Ottawa loss creates a tie for first in the Atlantic with NJ and a four way tie with NJ, Montreal and Ottawa for first in the conference.
The only problem is - for Ottawa to win, you have to root for Philly
Go Ottawa - make it 8 losses in a row for the Flyers
Last time the Pens and Panthers met, the Penguins won 3-1. Vokoun was pulled.
Three days before the 3-1 win, the Pens won 3-0
I may be a few minutes late to tonight's thread. Fire it up without me.

why don't they try this for a line
How about Talbot centering Kennedy and Connor James? Talk about a pygmy unit!
Give Therrien enough time
I'm sure in his ADD moments of forming lines, it's only a matter of time before Therrien comes across that combination.
love
that commercial. I laugh every time.

whitney blew that one too
nice job leaving Booth wide open
he's killin me
He has so much potential, and yet he's routinely screwing up. Maybe Therrien has to call him out again.
great shift
really gotta get some shots on though. All they're doing is killing the clock for the Panthers.
You know
You can't rag on this PP - it's not the normal one. Taffe - Kennedy - Staal? Are you serious? What is Therrien thinking
I'm not a coach, but
why o why would you break up Malkin-Malone-Sykora? They have carried the offense over the last two months
Number
4 on the PP, eh? Could have fooled me. Let's see one of those 3rd pd comebacks.

Conklin
has to stay solid here. It's gonna come down to his goaltening to save the Pens' chances of coming back
come ooooon Malkin
this diving crap has got to stop. Take the penalty, you had it - now cut the crap and get to work on the PP
my thoughts
exactly...we could have used him on the PP.

no kidding!
felt the same way about malone. stay critical of him and he becomes a better player
Nathan Smith is...
doing a great job keeping the bench toasty and closing the door. see you back in wilkes-barre
What
a comeback!!! very nice! Conklin with an A. hahaha

PS
If you have Center ice, check out the Rangers game. 5-5 in OT. The Habs lose, and Sens lost, then Pens are tied for first.
never mind
The Habs get a point either way. And so do the Sens, who have just gone to OT with Philly. Best case scenario, the Pens are a point out of the conference lead.
what????
NYR were up 5-1??? Damn...no center ice either. :(

The game
has been a little brutal at times. I was switching to it during intermission and occaisional commercials. Must be that divisional rivalry thing. Question...did something prompt the whole "fighting in the nhl-is it a problem" garbage...or is it just that time of the season?

i think
That's a topic of discussion every year. It's gonna take someone dyin on the ice from a fight to rid it from the game. It's too emotional and too intense to remove it. Taking fighting out of the sport would result in more cheap shots instead of straight up fights.
TOTALLY
agree. Fighting is part of the game. Get over it.

Brad Boyes
from the Blues is having a good game. 2 goals. He played for our OHL team here in Erie, the Otters. Of course they havent been good since he left...

THAT
sucks even more. How did the Rangers manage that one?

They work wonders
In oh so many ways. I wasn't really watching the game, but I was staying on top of it during the Pens game. The score was 5-1, 5-2, and then next thing you know it's 5-5.
haha
Nashville just beat Edmonton 5-4. After they won, the arena plays an opera woman singing. Get it...fat lady singing? ho ho ho
ps
did you get that video of malkin after the flyers game?
