Zach Aston-Reese - Teddy Blueger - Brandon Tanev

Brian Dumoulin - Kris Letang

Jack Johnson - Justin Schultz

Matt Murray


Pens a -167 favorite and -195 favorite for the series. With the Habs at +157, implied odds of Pens picking 1st in the draft are roughly 4.5%.

Still looking for the McCann line to get going, especially against the Ouellet/Mete pairing. Julien will be happy to oblige with that matchup - it's been a great place to hide them so far. Pound the left corner and go to work boys.

Let's go Pens!

Let's go pens!
Cheering and winning vibes sent to Toronto!

I expect the stars to be the stars tonight and destroy the Habs. Tide has turned. Had a wake up call game 1, dominated all of game 2 and Habs lone goal was after a rare uncalled penalty.

Unless the refs have the audio of some Frenchie ******* in their ear whining for calls or non calls we turned the page on this garbage team.

[penny lane]

No McCann for the pens on the pre skate. No Weal for Montreal.
Lafferty & Rodrigues both in the warm ups.

[DelPen]

After game one I had 4 players who should
Not had played in game 2: Murray, Sheary, Johnson and McCann. Murray fully acquitted himself and was great in game 2. Sheary was in my doghouse until that sweet pass to Zucker which only reinforces swapping Jake with Zuck.

But McCann and Johnson still suck out loud right now. Getting Lafferty in as it looks like tonight is a good move to light a fire under other guys like ZAR and Sheary to play better or they can get replaced too.

Johnson is still a disaster.

I enjoy the Pens, but Jay Caufield and crew make me want to vomit. If one only listened to them, one would thimk its a team of 21 prime Lemieux's who can do no wrong.

I mute.

[BurghThing]

Sam in for McCan't

[DelPen]

Sam in for McCan't

And him destroying Weiss in the neutral zone is already sending a message.

[RentedMule66]

Lafferty BOOM hit! ...and why can't these bozo's hit the freaking net??

[RentedMule66]

The boys are sleepwalking...Montreal taking it to us

[DelPen]

Forslund rightfully confused when garbage player makes garbage play that has nothing to do with actual hockey.

[RentedMule66]

Laff with another big hit

[Dr Rosenrosen]

3rd line immediately better. Gotta say I didn't see that coming.

[BurghThing]

There was some pitiful defense

[RentedMule66]

Getting our asses kicked

[DelPen]

Johnson is **** garbage

[KG]

Not playing with nearly the same intensity this game so far

[Skatingpen]

That is some sloppy lazy hockey

[RentedMule66]

That might be all they need

[Dr Rosenrosen]

Spoke too soon. Lafferty let his guy right through.

[RentedMule66]

Stoooooooopid challenge

[BurghThing]

interesting challenge

[DelPen]

That should be interference

[KG]

That’s a goal

[BurghThing]

OK time to run Price
