Pens/Bolts-Eastern Conference Finals

[COOL MAN]

Just a little tidbit from the NBC Live Extra streaming broadcast; their screen is chock full of stats and graphics, including individual "cards" on each player with his seasonal, playoffs, and in-game stats. Actually, it's a pretty cool presentation.....

On each "card", there's a picture of each player; if I'm not mistaken, every single player for the Bolts is wearing a Bolts jersey. Here's what jersey the following Pens are wearing in their card photos:

• Murray -- no photo
• Bonino -- Canucks
• Cole -- Blues
• Cullen -- Preds (I think)
• Fehr -- Craps
• Hagelin -- Rangers
• Kessel -- Laffs
• Kuhnhackl -- no photo
• Lovejoy -- Ducks
• Schultz -- Oil
• Sheary -- no photo

BTW, the Pens team has a card listed for Scott Wilson (no photo), Kevin Porter (no photo -- not even sure who he is), and Pascal Dupuis !!!!

Super classy finish by Sid which doesn't happen without a bust-my-ass effort by one-handed Pat Hornqvist

BTW...well said Doc!!!! LMAO!

 

[torontoeers]

• Here they come...Boyle of all the asshats!....BEND don't break Mr. Murray!

Ya could tell Phil wished his stick were in it's holster there....just put it away boys...

 

[COOL MAN]

A shame they got one they didn't deserve.....

Hey t, no matter what happens tonight, how much fun is the Toronto media going to have in the morning with Kessel knocking it into his own goal :angry:

 

[torontoeers]

Geno looks in rough shape from the images I'm getting from my feed...after that hit....yikes...

 

[torontoeers]

Lmao...and ya know what? I'm gonna laugh all the way to work listening to it....WHEN they hang on to ice this thing!

 

[COOL MAN]

Pretty nice elbow that Geno took there......

 

[Euell]

Oh no.

 

[torontoeers]

Completely screened...GSUS!

 

[torontoeers]

Oh no.

Boyle...again! Where is the angry emoticon when you need it?

 

[torontoeers]

HANG IN BOYS! HANG IN!!!

 

[COOL MAN]

Bolts are on a 20 shot pace this period.....

 

[torontoeers]

Bolts are on a 20 shot pace this period.....

Murray needs to hang in there now...and did you think on that 3 on 2 Pens had they should have pressed? Cause I do...go for the jugular in that moment...quell the rebellion!

 

[Euell]

Can't fault PK for the series he has had, but that little snafu sure injected some life into those Bolts.

 

[COOL MAN]

With all the Bolts pressing, there has to be at least one breakaway (or odd man rush) for the Pens sometime.....

 

[Euell]

IDK if I can take these last three minutes!

 

[torontoeers]

RUST!!!!!

 

[COOL MAN]

Callahan is an animal tonight......

 

[Euell]

You called it CM!

[WVU82]

 

[Euell]

Boyle is a first-rate a$$hat!

 

[torontoeers]

Gents...I opened a nice bottle of Tawny Port (usually reserved for the weekend here or there)...I am having a second glass! With a happy headache work day tomorrow!!!! Yes Sir!!!! ONE MORE!!!

 

[torontoeers]

Boyle is a first-rate a$$hat!

[torontoeers]

Let's see if the clown shoes Rossi reports that 87 got the GWG in EVERY Pens win this series tomorrow!?! Hmmm????

 

[COOL MAN]

For the record...on Scott Oake's question about a 'terrific effort on your GWG Sid what can you say, how did it happen'....Sid 'It doesn't happen without a terrific backcheck by Pat Hornqvist'...good call CM...

[torontoeers]

"Back to the Burgh! (Don't even think about it "T"!) LOL!

LMAO! My neighbor just text me...'you goin to game 7 lol?'....I said YEAH IF YOU'RE PAYIN!!! Lol....no worries....I will pace through the living room floorboards here on Thursday again!...so happy with this result tonight....

You can bet he'll make some kind of typical comment that when the chips are down, you need your stars to produce......and last night they did. For the record, the one thing I agreed with that piece was how sad (and frankly, inexcusable) that Sid, Letang, and Geno left their "buddy" Flower to face the press while they hid in the shower.

 

[COOL MAN]

RUST!!!!!

That was one helluva goal.......sold the wrist shot (or slapper) all the way and caught Vasilevskiy with his pants down with the deke.

 

[COOL MAN]

Roenick creaming his jeans over Sid's goal in the postgame.....why is it that I'm really just not very interested in what Roenick has to say anymore this season ???

 

[torontoeers]

I don't care if it's the Blues, the Sharks or the Charlotte Checkers! ONE win away to fight for it...and another fight it will be be get there.....the ride is still going...Don't wanna get off it yet!!!

Myself included...did not understand that one whatsoever...Captain should have stuck around at least...
