[DelPen]

DeSmith gets the start, ZAR and Wilson in, Grant and speinbf out. Ruhwedel also in for Riikkola.

[Humperdink]

"Look, over there, some motivation. Let's call them up and see if that works."

[Malkintent]

Johnson on the top pairing. God help us.

[DelPen]

Not to sound biased but where was there a penalty?

[BurghThing]

Slashing?!?!?! LOL!!!!

[stonewizard51]

2 minutes inand a PK already. Nice !!

[Stanislav21]

Unless I missed something, there was no penalty worth calling on that play.

[Humperdink]

He did not get a shot, therefore a penalty.

[Hot Dog Vendor]

Called this exact scenario in the Morning After thread. ZAR/Wilson in, Grant/Sprong out. Way to really shake things up. Gonna predict a massive disappointment here tonight, but I'll be happy to be wrong.

Standard officiating is in effect tonight, I see.

[BurghThing]

Rusty first line didn't last long, thank God

Weak slash call, miss a 4:00 high stick?

He did not get a shot, therefore a penalty.

There were several whacks at the gloves by several Penguins on that sequence - I though a penalty was coming shortly after the Caps crossed center ice.

Popeye Oshi

It's hard to feel sorry for a guy who spends a lot of his time diving to draw a penalty. It's kind of in a boy who cried wolf way.

[Southern Fan]

I’m a bad person.

Thought “That’s a shame” when Oshie got the stick in the eye. Of course, not a stretch for Oshie to embellish but that looked real.

[BurghThing]

It would be nice if we got a bounce one of these days

Yep

[DelPen]

How many times is Simon going to be allowed to blow an easy clear and still get top line minutes?

Yeah. That one would have been a better call for a penalty than the slash was.

[Dr Rosenrosen]

I’ve counted 1 1/2 decent shifts. The one was from 4th line.

[stonewizard51]

How many passes on this PP ?

[Faubert5]

Not much of a trip but I'll take it. Maybe we'll get a scoring chance for here.

[Faubert5]

How many passes on this PP ?

Too many.

[BurghThing]

How many passes on this PP ?

Too many.

Just enough
