    Nice, and we start the 2nd period on the PP for 1:52 or so. That is huge. If we can score on that PP we are in awesome shape.

    I am telling you, Pitt is not that good this season. Now they will score, they will battle back tonight and still may win, but big picture if we stay the course I think we have an amazing shot to win this series. Double so if Orpik misses more games.

    Pitt is just not that great. They don't have the forward depth they used to. And MAF is bad.

    Come out strong in the 2nd and get some chances on the PP. I am sure the Pens will come out ready to go in the 2nd after that terrible period. We have to standup and stay strong.

    Hopefully the Rangers don't beat themselves in this one.

    For sure Mess. We must stay out of the box. No two ways about it.

    If this PP is ever going to come through, do it now. Don't get fancy against this team, quick passes and just shoot. If we can score a PPG to start the 2nd, wow we'd be in awesome shape.

    Not really Pasta. Montreal never dominated the play like we have. The feeling was always there that Boston would get back into that game. Here, the Pens are frustrated and we are playing very well.

    Yeah, we will get plenty of chances, and they will as well at some point. Usual Pitt series.

    And I agree Pasta. The Rangers never do well with prosperity. So we'll see how they deal in this series.

    Like I said earlier, you can already see this is a much easier series to play for the players than the Flyers series. Way more open ice. Not a lot of big physical guys on the Pens. Easier to play as a player.

    I agree with papa on the Montreal comparison. Boston outshot them and really out chanced them all night. Price was just on his game big time, and Montreal scored some opportunistic goals.

    Fresh ice...let's go PP to start the 2nd. Keep shooting away on MAF.

    And this is why I fucking get angry. Richards chance to shoot...NOPE. McDonagh chance to shoot...NOPE.

    The power play is crap. Slow, tedious with everyone standing still
