the pens are a gritty bunch of buzzards, they're far from done.
i'll say one thing, that save by fleury was huge, montreal would have been up 5-0
had he not made it. pens on a greasy power play from a "make-up" call to start the 3rd.
4 on 3 coming.
makeup calls, makes my skin crawl. call a decent game and there will be nothing to make up for.

Period #2 is completed... Habs 4 - Pens 2...

I did not like the end of the second period... Hope the Canadiens will get back stronger in 3rd...

I think that was Brent Johnson...Fleury was pulled after the 4th goal

Thanks! It's crazy here in my livng room with my 3 sons!!! Go Habs Go!!!

And time for another beer!!!

Halak is on fire tonite!!!

Don't see the Pens coming back from this one. I know who I'll be pulling for in the Eastern finals. Now it's time to root for the underdog.

[BenoA]

5-2 Montreal!!!!

[Rupe]

Halak is unbelievable...I'll be pulling for the Habs in the next round (barring a miracle comeback)

[Hellbat]

Jesus titty fucking christ, now I'm gonna have to listen to my brother in law crowing about how awesome the habs are....

[clifffclaven]

call it a hunch. The Pens have the puck more so Montreal will be called more. The calls have been 23-17 in favor of the Pens in the series and thats pretty equal. What is frustrating and sometimes overlooked is the timing of the calls and lack of consistency, one minute a players gets away with it and thenext play they don't.

Nope. No bettman conspiracy.

WOW...at least I don't feel quite so bad now as a Caps fan...congratz Habs!

Spiv has got to be currently spraying his shorts too, 2-0 Flyers after 2.

I must extend my congratulations to everyone here, this thread has held its own this season.

If the Flyers can keep it up looks like they're going to get their chance to.
