Quick Pens Update

They are 3-0 since the Olympic Break with yesterday quite possibly being their best game against Dallas. Final score 6-3 scoring 5 unanswered goals after going down 3-1. Fleury got his shit together after letting up 3 goals and shut the Stars down for the rest of the game. Crosby got 2 more goals to put him 2 over Ovie (Thank God) And new Penguin Alexei Ponikarovsky scored his first as a Penguin.

I'm thinking repeat but it's way too early to say that. We are locked in the #2 seed right now, right behind the Caps so it should be an interesting Spring.

Just got back from the Hawks/Red Wings game

Detroit Sucks!!! But we lost 5-4.. Not going to lie, Datsyuk is a beast

Hawks have to make it to the final this year no doubt about it. They still have goal-tending issues, but they could be in way worse shape then they are in now. For having lackluster goalies they are still a dominant team.

Prediction: Blackhawks vs. Pens or Caps

HOW FUCKING COOL WOULD THOSE MATCH UPS BE.

 

[xtremebadass]

Here is how I see the first round going...

Senators vs. Penguins

Devils vs. Flyers

Bruins vs. Sabres

Capitals vs. Canadiens


Blackhawks vs. Predators

Canucks vs. Kings

Red Wings vs. Coyotes

Avalanche vs. Sharks


I will except nothing except Hawks vs. Caps/Pens

 

[Wordlife]

Senators vs. Penguins

Devils vs. Flyers

Bruins vs. Sabres

Capitals vs. Canadiens


Blackhawks vs. Predators

Canucks vs. Kings

Red Wings vs. Coyotes

Avalanche vs. Sharks

Hawks vs Penguins in SCup, Hawks in 6....

Crosby has a long road ahead of him if he will win the cup. Getting through the east will be tough. There is a huge possibility he will face Ovie in the 2nd round and Brodeur in the next.

Pens never beat the Caps or Devils AT ALL this year.

^Its the year I've been waiting for since birth bro! This is my dream, Pens/Hawks. It's going to happen!

Crosby will get the team on track and win the Senators series in 5. Then they'll play the Caps, and beat them in 6, Ovi is going to be shut down!

 

[xtremebadass]

If any year is the year for Chicago this is it.

Not so sure anymore. It pains me to even think that the Predators will beat the Hawks. They need to score more. That is where they are lacking, they shouldn't because THEY GOT P-KANE.


Hawks better wrap this up.

 

[xtremebadass]

Halak. Enough said. I am so pissed. Not only because the Habs knocked out Washington but now Crosby and Malkin will have to get the puck past that bastard.

Next round:

Penguins vs. Canadiens

Bruins vs. Flyers

Canucks vs. Blackhawks (rematch from last year)

Red Wings vs. Sharks

 

[Lady Redfield]

My team won, smurfs.

 

[Wordlife]

NO CAPITALS IS A GODDAMN WIN IN MY BOOKS!!!!

Predictions:

Penguins vs. Canadiens

Bruins vs. Flyers

Canucks vs. Blackhawks

Red Wings vs. Sharks

I want the Red Wings to win though, so we can face them and knock them off to get into the Stanley Cup :shifty:

 

[NinoBrown]

Caps are out? Whoever wins the Blackhawks/Canucks series I'm routing for.

 

[xtremebadass]

Here are my predictions:

Penguins vs. Canadiens (in 6 games)

Bruins vs. Flyers (in 6 games)

Canucks vs. Blackhawks (in 7 games)

Red Wings vs. Sharks (in 7 games)

These are really tough match-up's this time around.

I really want to see either Penguins vs. Blackhawks or Penguins vs. Red Wings III.

The Caps getting eliminated really pissed me off.

 

[Lady Redfield]

rofl smurf Pens.

 

[xtremebadass]

I swear the Penguins were blazing up before today's game. Billy Guerin and Malkin are in limbo out there. Geno needs to get the lead out of his ass and speed up. He is a huge dude and has great skills, but he hasn't been using both of those traits to his advantage.

Crosby always tries though, I am waiting for it to break down between him and Gill.
