Well, might as well start the series thread......i freely admit I'm not at all excited about it. Can only hope the B&G give me some reason to get enthused
My overwhelming bet is game 4 and 5 if needed are a lock for 8pm. Habs and Leaves fans for that matter will scream blue murder if they are afternoon slots. And to be honest the viewing numbers would likely dictate an evening time slot. I was rather ecstatic to see the first 3 games at 8. Afternoon hockey blowsBTW, if you were wondering......and haven't looked it up previously......Games 1-3 of the Habs/Pens series are pre-scheduled as the 800EDT faceoff on Saturday 8/1, Monday 8/3, and Wednesday 8/5. I don't believe any game time decisions have been made for Games 4 (Friday 8/7) and 5 (Sunday 8/9) leaguewide.
Meanwhile.....and not that this matters, or has anything to do with the schedule......I see that Sportsnet in Canada calls the Pens their 7th choice right behind Washington, which was actually better than I'd have expected. Of course, I didn't expect them to slide Toronto down to 11th......the media darling Rangers to 12th.......and the Cryers all the way down to 14th (they're not excited about Hart in goal)
Also...did you watch any of the Canes / Rangers game earlier? I had to tune out after listening to the NBCSN crew slobbering over and felating Henrik. Barf worthy....Dave Molinari confirming on DK that it's Murray in the cage tonight......
Here we go....our dreaded PP. Make it happen!No shock the Habs got the nice bounce after surviving the early blitz.....they're finally evening things up, but I wouldn't do anything different if I'm HCMS.
Thanks. Missed ya lol. Did you jump and then correct yourself on that post on the PP like I did? Geez. We need one bad...Glad to see you survived the last 4 months, t.......mighty happy you're back and posting again !!
Here we go....our dreaded PP. Make it happen!
On the goal replay ZAR and Johnson playing keystone cops in front.... that just cant happen. UghNo shock the Habs got the nice bounce after surviving the early blitz.....they're finally evening things up, but I wouldn't do anything different if I'm HCMS.
Oh agreed. They looked good. One has to go in soon right???Was actually a fairly decent effort, even without anything to show for it.....
I like Tanev's effort yet again. That one moment early when Zuck was at side of net? Damn if only he decided to stride 6 more inches and wire it. Oh wellLooks like we're gonna need Horndog or Tanev to invent something if Price actually IS gonna stop everything......
I needed this stress....I honestly did.... Let's go!Murray a strong save, Letang the great saving defensive play, and then the PP goal.......pretty crazy sequence for the Guins
Well, here we go again.... it's time. Quit screwing around.Miserable 5 on 3 effort...... never found an open man even once.
Anyone else wish for anything other than the perimeter shots on that 2 man Ad? Gsus man, soft shot it in for Horney.
