Other NHL games 2013-2014 season

I'm convinced that Marty St Louis' mom was an Illuminati sacrifice for the Stanley Cup.

[shafnutz05]

Well, I'm happy there's hockey tonight anyway...

[dman66]

The Pens just needed to win one more game, one more f'n game. Sigh..

Can't wait to see all the celebrities in the Cup Final, yay. "Who is up in the suites tonight, Doc??!!" "Why its Justin Timberlake, Pierre." "I didn't know he was a hockey fan, Doc."

Also can't wait for the "team of destiny" crap, ugh. "Winning the Cup for Marty's Mom" stuff that will be rammed down our throats. If only the Rangers won in Montreal, the Habs fans probably would've threw stuff on the ice.

Oh, and Dominic Moore? GTFO. Funny story is during one of my Eastside Hockey Manager seasons Moore was the second leading scorer on my team right behind Ryan Whitney. Yeah…my team wasn't too good that year.

One thing lost in the St Louis mom passing is the fact that he acted like an ******* at the trade deadline. He was a captain of a team that pouted because his GM didn't put him on the Olympic, then forced a trade after he was put on the team and won a gold medal. I feel bad for him dealing with family, but I really don't want him to be on the winning team. And that's even before considering it's the Rangers....

Pens just weren't very good and we're riding luck. Habs most likely would have mopped the floor with Pens.

Bingo. St. Louis acted like a giant baby at the deadline, and to hear the media fawn over him now is utterly nauseating. Go Kings...if the Hawks win, my allegiance will be that much harder to determine.

Disagree.

Disagree.

Maybe I am biased from watching the pens dissapointing play recently. Even the Rangers - Habs 1-0 game looked faster and more exciting than any of our games. More real, actual, not hit the goalie in the chest from 45 feet and have fans call it a scoring chance, chances.

We seem to a few glorious chances a game but its not enough. Not nearly what other teams get.

Not sayin the Habs would have mopped us. I just have no idea what to think of us when I watch other games. Don't even get me started on the West.

[Gaucho]

Did the Habs even have a single glorius scoring chance last night?

I agree, especially after watching the intensity of the ECF and WCF. I just did not see any of that with the Pens. They barely put up a fight in game 7, at home. Also very lackluster game 5 and 6. More changes must be made.

[columbia]

Mopped the floor? Probably not.
Would have defeated the listless Pens? Sure.

[shafnutz05]

To be honest, in all of their series, including the Bruins, Montreal never really "scared" me as legitimate cup contender. It's weird, it just felt like a bunch of decent players working together to make a decent run, but not much more.

[dodint]

Ah, damn it. I thought this game started at 8. Flipped it on at 9:05 and caught that awful national anthem rendition. Boo.

[meow]

Quick looks locked in. Good luck, Chicago.

Replace Montreal with the Rangers and Boston with the Pens and that pretty much sums up my thoughts on the Rangers too...a solid, hard-working team with a great goalie, but not a real cup contender, but here we are.

[shafnutz05]

Matt Greene is kind of terrible. And come on, am I the only one watching this game tonight?!

[bh]

Watching it now. Go Kings!

[bh]

I saw Handzus get light up nice.

[PghSkins]

Go Kings Go

if the implication is that we were lucky to beat CBJ, i disagree. they aren't a good team. at all.

[shafnutz05]

Total defensive breakdown by the Hawks there. GO KINGS!

[bh]

Woooooooooo!

[bh]

I could have scored from there all alone like that.

[columbia]

That series was as close as it was for a variety of reasons, most of which reflect poorly on the coaching and preparedness of the Pens.

[Humperdink]

Just tuned in to see Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer and Chris Paul (NBA'er maybe??). Yeah that's what I wanted see first. Egad. The downside of the Kings being in it.
