Just out of curiosity...where is that dicksmack Rossi? Does he generally only make an appearance to sling arrows or tuck Flower into bed at night? Cause I've been skimming through some of the drivel today and saw nothing about game 1? Perhaps I'm mistaken and he has heaped praise upon them all unbeknownst to myself...NO issue with leveling deserved criticism from this guy here but it's nice to hear some praise as well from time to time. ...at least from somebody that knows wtf they're talking about...so I'm likely asking the impossible. ...

Have I got this one wrong gents, am I misreading or simply not getting the jist of this guys candor? You guys have your 'EERS' to the ground in the more local reporting aspects than yours truly...

I think Rossi's current convention is to write after a game; meaning his next published piece will likely be in tomorrow's T/R. In other words, if the Sharks bitch-slap the Pens tonight......again, as most experts are predicting...we'll probably see him come out shooting in the morning.

Ah ha....understood....I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see the good guys take it to them again tonight. They seemed to find an answer for a third of the game the other night but, as you mentioned previous one of their markers was a softie...I haven't heard on Rust's prognosis of yet and will likely find out when I turn on the tube but...I dunno...just a have a feeling on this one. I think in SJ the Pens will have their hands full no doubt...

Let's get this one guys! Light the lamp tonight!!!!!
 
Actually. ...upon thinking a bit today...Schultz. ...last few games he has not looked out of place and has some fairly good footspeed...if he can keep his head in the game, that particular trade may end up looking VERY beneficial. ....also can't say enough about how Dumoulin to my eyes has really improved since Sully's arrival...Tanger...keep your head on straight tonight too. Cause you were definitely worth the money they're paying you in game 1...
 
Simpson saying Sid's a man possessed tonight, and Murray needs to be on his game when needed with little action his way thus far...Sharks are right flat footed again , Kunitz had at least one great chance in the first...what is the verdict on the NBC feed?
 
ESPN Stats & Info
Sharks have 6 SOG in the 1st period after 4 in the 1st period in Game 1.
1st & 3rd-lowest SOG totals in a 1st period for SJ this postseason.

I feel like the good guys should be 3 or 4 goals ahead right now and that makes me nervous.
 
Another thing...the Pens forwards are doing an exceptional job yet again helping out on the back end....speed in all zones...real impressive.....Sharks tryin to drink from the firehose again tonight!
 
I like the facts the Pens are playing well. I don't like the fact it is a one goal game.
 
Cherry- 'If this is the best Pittsburgh can do vs San Jose just wait till the Sharks get home!' WTF? Seriously? Yeah it's tied but the play has been DECIDEDLY the Pens way...also he whines about the SOG numbers saying they're way inflated...Somebody put this senile goof out of his misery already...This guy has been gifted a pulpit up here based on his bombastic asshat personality...the game has passed him by long ago...hit the freakin road already! Is he even watching the game?????
