NHL: 2008 - 2009 season is upon us

One more win over the Philly Flyers!! GO PENS!

It has been an exciting series so far. Tomorrow's game should be good - I think the Pens will take it, but we will see. The Flyers came out strong yesterday but can you believe Fleury?? He was amazing! Hope he can keep it up!

Ugh, I can't stand the Ducks....if they advance, please someone, kick their butts?


Please?

The Penguins have just defeated The Flyers in the first round of the Stanley cup playoffs by a score of 5-3. They took the series 4 games to 2. Fleury was awsome!

Ovechkin is a freak.


He is not of this planet.

Fleury was very good indeed. That save on Giroux was just sick.

The Penguins are looking very good.

The Penguins are looking very good.

Especially considering that for a few months they were completely out of play off picture. I don't usually like to blame things on the coach, but the coaching change seems to have made a big difference this season. Go Pens!

*sigh* Do or die for us tonight. I'm not afraid to blame the coach. I want to be rid of Keenan so badly.

GO FLAMES GO!

[davidpizzica]

You're right, Jen. The coaching change did wonders. Now I hope the Pens success can rub off on the Pirates!

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Carolina got JOBBED. End of 2nd period, a close call on what might have been a goal. Ref rules NO goal.

Versus showed a replay, multiple times that clearly shows the puck across the goal line. Maybe only 2-3 frames of video, but it is clearly (in low def, BTW) across the line.

The NHL review rules NO goal. BS.

Boo. LOL

Sorry to the many Pens fans out there...

But WOW! That was an AWESOME game last night. That might be one of the most entertaining hockey games I have seen in a long time.

The stories today are all about Crosby and Ovechkin. But I think Varlamov was the hero. He made some unbelieveable saves to keep the Caps in it during the 1st period. That kid is something else....

Can it get better than that?

[JenBKR]

That was quite a game - well I didn't actually get to see it because we don't get versus, but I listened to (most of) it. Hopefully the results will be better tonight! We'll see.....

I agree, Jen. The Pens maybe two games down, but I don't think all the Pens fans here will let them down! I'll be taping the game tonight., it should be very interesting.

Had to laugh about Crosby complaining about the hats on the ice......Dude, skate around them!!!!!

I got a huge kick out of that too. Somehow I think had he scored his hat trick in Pittsburgh he wouldn't have asked the officials to make an announcement about not throwing things on the ice. What a whiney baby... lol

Playoff hockey? You betcha!
