But he wasn't impeding on Fleury whatsoever... it was a nonsense call just like the one in the Dallas series..

lol I was being sarcastic. Fleury didn't even notice where holmstrom's stick was, when goalies are interferred with you can tell after the play by their reaction. It didn't affect his ability to make the save, but i guess it didn't matter in the end.

It's not uncommon for Pittsburgh to get favourable treatment. Crosby flops around like a trout, but the officials turn a blind eye because he is the poster-boy for the "new" NHL. Malkin was approached by the Penguins while under contract for a Russian team, but everyone was hush-hush about it. Ever since the strike in 2004-2005, the NHL has seemingly chose who wins and who doesn't in order to enhance the struggling markets.

    I'd have to say I agree. It's pretty fucking pathetic how this new NHL has been run by these clowns.

    Andy, what a classy way you deal with a victory by your team. The Wings are a better team with tons of playoff experience and it was expected they would win the opener on home ice. They won, and it was not even close, but I fail to see how the result was so fucking hilarious.

    Go Pens!

    Where did I say the result was hilarious? I just said the fall by Fleury was hilarious, and he would agree with me because he was laughing about it during the skate around.

    I show nothing but respect for Pittsburgh and their fans. Not sure what you're talking about, dawg.

    I'm talking about the many and various laughing smileys in all of your posts about Game 1. And stop hating on Sid Crosby

    I didn't make them because I'm gloating about the loss. They were just funny events during the game and in the post-match stuff. Didn't mean to offend you, bro.

    Crosby is a great player and the Pens are a great team without a doubt.

    OK, I can't be too mad at you since you saved my life earlier today.

    Pado, your boys need to hold the blue line better and forecheck harder. That's the way they could get back into the game and into the series. We have your main players on lock and it's going to be your 3rd or 4th line who has the opportunities, so they need to step up to the bar here.

    As someone who has played this sport for a decade, you guys just have to work harder, do some more hitting, and get down and dirty.

    Roberts is a clown. Trying to knock Franzen out again?

    You'll need to do better than that, you clown.

    No offense Pado, but you guys are classier than that crap. Cheap shots galore.

    I LOVED how Datsyuk punched Roberts after his cheap shots... sticking up for our team. WHAT A PLAYER.

    Great job boys, 313 is indeed Hockeytown. Thank you brothers for your heart.
