Marc-Andre Fleury isn't the reason the Penguins have fallen behind again in this Stanley Cup Final. He'll have to be the reason if they come back to win it. He isn’t the problem, but he could be the solution.

I haven’t said anything since “it” happened. Mostly because i was stunned by thier play. They didn’t look the same it was like they were trying everything in their power to lose. I’m just stunned. I can’t even whiine about the lop sided penalties, we were morons out there, what the hell are they doing…
On a brighter note we are still right where we were before game 5, needing 2 wins to win the cup. So at least there’s that.

I agree that Fleury has to steal the show. He hasn’t been bad, but he needs to be spectacular.

their play in the third period was much better but the damage was already done. I think a goaltender knows they are marked men. I wonder if MAF was thinking “now you decide to play some D”- LOL. But no doubt Osgood gets more help defensively than MAF.

Hooks, what do you think Bylsma’s train of thought is with the team these past two days?

Bylsma’s still pretty even-keeled, the main message from his latest press conference that he kept harping on was basically: “we don’t need one person to go out and be the difference maker. We need our team to play better. We need to play the way we know how to play.”

A transcript of the presser can be found here.
