Someone needs to tell Gonchar that after you lose the puck and take a penalty you don't stop EFFING PLAYING. GEEZUS.

I have never seen ANYONE make themselves so compavt and small defending 2-on-1's as both melichar and Eaton did in those two goals.

The old players who have been in the league for 5+ years screwed up.

The infamous two goal lead strikes again.

Hate to say it but this team looks real tired right now. A lot of standing around on the two quickies.

I know it's early in the game but that bad habit of giving up the lead and so quickly is coming back in this game. Maybe being early it will change.

Good advice. Don't panic!

I think the penguins' defense is their weak spot. They also have to score more goals than the other team to win. If they can do that they will be okay.

man they must be getting tired. LOTS of standing around and running around in their own zone and can't clear the zone for a loooong time there.

You basically described what the Islanders' color guy said before the game.

Because they forced Scuderi, melichar, Eaton and Gonchar to forget how to lay defense?
