8-3 B's 39 minutes into the game against the Pens? Never expected that!

Da fuq?  Nice time for the Pens to take a night off!

Kings have another shitty first period at home, going down 2-0 to CBJ (the only NHL team whose abbreviation also stands for a sex act) but then wake up and score 5 unanswered goals.  I REALLY like what I've seen from Alex Iafallo this year.

On another note, yesterday's game was "Pride Night" for the Kings (https://www.nhl.com/kings/tickets/theme-games/pride-night).  Am I completely off the mark in thinking this is a silly promotion?  Do other teams do this?

Which is ironic coming from the team that (seemingly according to your multiple posts) has no pride.  :D
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related

TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

My thought is always:  why are we celebrating sexual preferences/orientations or the fact that some folks like to dress in a manner more closely associated with the other gender?  If you're a hockey fan, great; I couldn't care less whom or what you wants to f**k.  If we're having LGBTQ "pride night," why aren't we having "BDSM night"?  While I am, of course, being facetious about that, I cannot perceive any legitimate difference between the two concepts.

Anyhoo....

Hard to say, he has a concussion, so he could be back in a couple days or a couple weeks. Hoping for a quick recovery but you know how concussions are - tough to tell.

Gotta love last minute free hockey tickets :D Got to see a big win last, both in terms of final score and hopefully getting the Devils back on track in this final stretch run of the regular season. Taylor Hall has just been unreal, at least one point in I think 26 straight games now.

Yeah, he's been on fire.

As opposed to the Leafs who lost 4 straight after going 9-1-1.  And with the Bs (both Bolts and Bruins) still winning, the gap is widening.  Doubt they have a chance at home-ice, regardless of who finishes 2nd.  Hopefully Matthews is back for Saturday.

Big Pens win last night against the Flyers.  :metal

Malkin, since the turn of the calendar year, has been playing possibly the best consistent hockey I've ever seen him play (for this duration of time at least). 29 points in his last 16 games - incredible.

Yeah, he too is on fire.  Pens are gonna be a force in the post-season.  Matthews not likely to be back for Saturday, so it's gonna be a tough haul against you guys.

Yeah the Pens seem to be coming on at the right time, the Brassard addition and Hörnqvist re-signing firmed up that management is fully committed to competing in the remaining prime window of this core.

Jeezus... can't anyone hold a lead against the Bruins!?!?!  Down 4-3 to start the 3rd, and they win 7-4.  Thanks Chicago.

:zeltar:

Leafs need to show up tonight, and even still, 2nd place is a long-shot.  And Florida is surging, so a prolonged slump would make things unnecessarily interesting.

And show up they did - about 8 minutes into the game  :lol ... and then made the finish interesting. Nice to get a regular time win though.

Well, nice to see Conner throwing the team on his back again and scoring 2 in the 2nd. The only thing i have to cheer for is the scoring race, so I'll take what i can get.  I still think the Oil mange to blow this 2 goal lead in the 3rd. This is the last game of the year for me in my season seat group, and i say thankya.

Rite??  And this with McEvoy and Bergeron out the past few games.  If not for Gallant, Cassidy would be a shoe-in for the Adams.

Hopefully we're your Kryptonite. :biggrin:

Don't forget Backes has been out 3 games for a suspension as well.

It looks like we are on a collision course for the first round.

It's a virtual certainty.  I'm not sure I see you guys catching the Bolts... and I surely don't see the Panthers catching the Leafs.

Still don't see it happening, especially now that McDonagh is in their lineup.  Though, you guys do have 3 games against each other (2 of which are in TB), so those will be huge.  YUGE!

Bs are indeed looking good. So good they could get off to a 3-0 lead in a game 4 when they're up in the series 3-0. And of course nothing bad could happen from there. :D
