why the hell even bring up "crosby embellishes"? This is why people don't care about hockey... they do a crap job selling their stars

So that quick story they said about Elias saying after yesterdays game that Crosby embellishes and this that and the other, man if I was a reporter in that scrum I'd flat out ask him "so you've never gone down easy when you felt a stick around your feet, waist, or hands Patrick?" Why doesnt anyone have balls anymore

As embarrassing as NFL announcers get with the heaps and heaps of praise on top players, hockey could learn a thing or two to how they treat their stars in their national broadcasts

If he starts AHHHHHH interupting his own AHHHHHH thoughts with some THERE'S A DRIVE commentary we'll know there's SHOTTTTT only one Doc.
Hey Doc if it's really you at :50 left in this period, say "Five Sixths of a minute left here in the first."

I have to believe the NBCS copywriter's frustrate the hell out of Doc and Edzo.
And, zero mention of last season's MVP (unless we missed it)
As they say, what's up with that.

Good first period. The caps got on their forecheck a bit towards the end and were aided by some sloppy puck management by the Pens. Go in, regroup and tighten up that breakout for the second period and the Pens should be golden. From what i have seen, the caps aren't playing that strong on the wall. The Devils were playing far better yesterday and the Pens simply waited for them to make mistakes in the neutral zone. Have to do that here.

They need to make sure they confiscate Ovi's skate laces and all sharp objects from his home if he hears that one

Yeah, usually when this happens he has a stellar game.
The Pens need to stay focused, and can't let the last 7 minutes of the 1st period dictate how they start off in the 2nd. 60 minutes of hockey is needed to beat the Capitals regardless of record.

That was a ridiculous segment. The Caps with Ovechkin have historically been incredibly streaky. This time is no different.

There's still something to be said about going through 3 different coaches to "accommodate" Ovechkin
