  • Comment on Pacioretty, Gionta join Eller on sidelines; two-game suspension for Sens' Gryba
    I disagree. I think this is in the Sens' heads as much as in our guys', and while it was a clean-ish hit, it *was* to the head, and then their own coach's comments exacerbated everything, so in the back of their minds I think they know they are "in the wrong". Prust and Therrien came across as steamed, but in a focused, ninja-assassin kind of way. I don't see them head-hunting tonight, I see them just playing highly-motivated hockey with a lot of intensity.

    "giving them the tongue"?

    I dunno, that Ovechkin shot, him having lots of room, lots of time, and a decent un-covered pass option? Not a trivial stop.

    Boone: The Toronto moment of silence had shouters too, though that doesn't make it any better. I'm an ashamed Canadian that we couldn't manage 15 seconds at *either* game without some apes hooting from the back rows.

    Righto - hard to tell sarcasm in the written word, is all. Cheers. :)

    There was some oomph in the third, but all desperation oomph. Some scrambles in front of the Philly net that give you a second of hope, but then they have a give-away, blow defensive coverage to give the Flyers a nice scoring chance, lose several puck battles in a row along the boards, and struggle to recover long enough to clear the zone. I am really no expert, but they seemed beaten down, whether by bounces or mentality or whatever. They could pick themselves up for 20 seconds to make an adrenaline-fueled push when there was a chance to score, but not when they had to do the drab dirty work and stick to their defensive coverage or grind it out on the boards.

    > Well MT if you get blown out my Pitt you may have to start looking for a new job. That is frankly ridiculous. I can only assume you *know* that that's completely ridiculous, but are so frustrated along with the rest of us that your filter is down.
