Cant wait to see them bury the Islanders tonigt! @ovi8 gonna score the Hat Trick!

The Capitals were as I predicted. My Pens will be the same way after tonight.

The Preds/Blackhawks game was epic ....... I was following it on twitter cause the game was blacked out locally and I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.

Caps Rally from down 2! 4-3....Caps playing like they want it!

Watched the last period of the Blues/Wild! Tarasenko scored his first career Hat Trick! Was a fun thing to watch!

Hate to say it but the Wings looked slow and played sloppy in Game 2, better pick up their game at home or we will be looking at another long summer

The Pens played like they wanted the Trophy last night! I had fun watching. The Blues game was almost boring. The wild didnt even put up a fight

Ready for Game 3 with the Caps today!

The Pens actually looked OK last night for a change. However, the officiating has been very lopsided in this series, I hope it turns the other way in Pittsburgh. I have not been thrilled with some of the calls and lack thereof. That hit by Hagelin last night on Crosby should have been interference at a minimum and should be reviewed by the league, he targeted the head. That is the kind of ###### the nhl needs to get out of the game. A no star hacks ability to cheap shot a superstar is why this game/league has no credibility. It shows there is no respect for star players by the league or fellow players. If Crosby had played the puck then I would say he was fair game for a timely check, but he was skating to the bench. Beyond that several calls were just bad, they called NY for tripping Chorney and I don't even think the guy touched him, he blew a tire as they say. And then the intereference by the Pens on a Ranger in front of the Pens net was ridiculous, they could call a ton of intereference calls on lots of plays and let them all go, that one was no worse than the 100 they didn't call and should not have been called. Oh where oh where has the interference call gone???? We are back to clutch and grab hockey at it's finest.

The Caps looked really good last night! They played hard! Great game. Of course, OVI8 had a sweet little back hand mid air tap in that was gorgeous

Did you guys see Rinne lose the puck? I thought he was going to have to strip completely to find that thing! Hilarious!

Posted by: 19th Century Indiana Jones May 5 2015, 10:19 AM

All those shots taken and the Rangers just couldn't get one in....

Posted by: sasports May 5 2015, 10:27 AM

But they were wearing Holtby out though. They had that poor kid begging for an intermission!

Posted by: 19th Century Indiana Jones May 5 2015, 12:39 PM

Not wearing him out enough. Man, Ovetchkin is mad scary on a fast break. I think Lundqvuist has lost a tick of reaction time.
