Pat Leonard@PLeonardNYDN · 12m Injured top-pair D Brooks Orpik not on ice for #Pens AM skate here in Pittsburgh
Montreal/Boston is like Rangers/Isles, Isles play like its the 7th game of the SC Finals everytime they play us, habs play that way vs B's, they hate each other, they give B's fits
JOHN GIANNONEVerified account@jaygeemsgApr 30 Seeing questions about Chris Kreider's status for round 2. Surgery was 31 days ago. He took light shots on Wed. Guess is sometime in series.
Reminds me of 2 years ago when we had 2 7 games series and then played the Devils and around game 4 we were physically and mentally done..shot. Let them kill each other and let Montreal be the winners and then we might have a shot..maybe. Lets win tonight baby!!
Lots of people optimistic in picking the Rangers. I definitely agree that this is the year that the Pens are ripe for the picking. I think it'll bring out the best in the Rangers as presently constructed. LGR!
Damn it I was so annoyed we gave up the 2 goal lead in the 2nd, but man the team hung tough in the 3rd and made plays in the OT period. I was just yapping for Nash to score a goal, but the man is making plays out there. That line of Zucc-Brass-Pou are making shit happen...This schedule is so bad that we needed a big win.
Its really tough to put all your eggs..or most, in the basket of a line that has 0 reputation in the league. With that said, its now starting to look real..that this line is a legit line in the playoffs..even when they cycle, it just makes sense...its not cycling to just cycle. There is a real read where everyone is. Poulitt..with all the dumb penalties...the guys is for real. He beats goaltenders on the shot..he passes. He hits...he like to be in front of the net which is taboo with this team. This team is a Kreider away from being able to do real damage...he would be icing on the cake. Lets hope this talk of later in this series is real. Now, to make this complete....how would being up 2-0 be? How great would that be? This team would never ever be able to pull that off because it doesnt fit the "lets make it difficult" mold but wouldnt it be great to finally break that and to go home knowing that a split would be great. I want 2-0 damn it...I want it badly.
Now since they scored the second time they were able to just go back and review to award Brassard the goal but what if they did not score and play continued for another minute or so and goes to the other end of the ice with Pitt scoring? Would they have then went back and look at Brassard's goal and wave off a Pitt goal?
Yeah I think so, they would review the goal of Brassard and award the Rangers the win...Not 100% positive though
