    I was sort of hoping for a Red Wings goal, just for the ensuing wailing and gnashing of teeth.

    Also, Andrew Shaw is a shitheel.

    Well, at least this brings my playoff pool back to being almost accurate. 3/4 teams called for round 3 ain't bad! If only Vancouver hadn't laid down and died in the first damn round I'd have all four...

    I'm watching on standard definition, but is there a problem with the audio for anyone else? It's like when you put your fingers on and off your ears rapidly, if that makes sense.

    No, he won't be for that.

    The fact that Marchand didn't get booted as well is just ridiculous ... I guess it could be because:

    A - His last name isn't Cooke
    B - Neal didn't roll around on the ground like a little girl
    C - His last name isn't Cooke

    Still just insane that he only got 2 for that hit.

    No, it was a dumb play but it wasn't a major.

    Marchands hit was just as reckless.

    Crosby was especially douchey tonight. And for the record, Marchand should have been booted as well.

    At first it was only 3-0 (Horton and Krejci added goals). And then Fleury came in.

    At least you was the 1-0 part. I just turned the game on and it was 4-1. The fuck happened?

    Don cherry runs a bit lamenting how poor Crosby is just such a victim and its unfair that he's getting run over and over.

    In every clip shown he's cross checking someone, mouthing off or slashing someone.

    Fuck cherry and fuck Crosby.

    Personally, I loved how Marchand's first goal made Crosby look like an ass, and his second goal made Cooke look like an ass.

    So this has squat to do with the playoffs, but I bought my first pair of inline skates to get more skating in when I can't make it to the ice.

    Holy fuck, how do people skate without edges? Or on anything other than perfectly smooth asphalt or concrete?

    But when you find freshly paved roads you will still always feel compelled to skate down them, even if it's completely out of your way.

    The call is as strong as the siren's song, but even more impressive because there are no sexual undertones.

    I didn't watch, but I hear Sidney Crosby and Chára were going after each other real hard a couple games ago

    Hopefully they'll take each other out at the same time and the world will be a better place

    Crosby has been a bitch so far this series. I will not even really defend anything he's done.

    I think I sort of lost patience in game one when he was trying to pick a fight with Rask. Like, really, why the hell would you do that?

    What I don't understand is why Pittsburgh came out in Game 1 with the strategy of madly going for hits. If you look at the hit totals, they doubled up Boston on hits, but Boston started beating them to pucks in the middle of the second period. To me, it looked like the Pens were so determined to show that they could stand up to the Bruins physically that they took themselves completely out of their own game.

    My favorite part of the Chara/Crosby shouting match was when Chara made a big show of bending down to get into Crosby's face, grinning the entire time.

    I'd absolutely hate Chara if I wasn't also 6'7" and laughed every time he used his height for my entertainment.

    It's like the Philly series all over again, no defense and trying to be tough guys and playing so physical we are taking ourselves out of what we do.

    Keith is suspended for game four because he smacked that bitch in the mouth. I love how the other guy basically mugged him, but gets nothing. Fucking NHL.

    I didn't see it but I heard that Keith was trying to slash the shit out of Carter.

    Looks like Keith is building up a reputation.

    Carter intentionally slashed Keith's exposed hand while he was trying to pick up his glove after slashing him in the corner beforehand.

    Keith took a no look swing at his shoulder and hit Carter's ugly mug instead.

    I just...CBC...just....

    During the powerplay, they had a tiny box in the corner of the screen that JUST followed Crosby. Like, usually their coverage of Crosby is pretty gross, but having an actual Crosby Cam? Are you KIDDING ME

    Meh, Carter slashed at Keith's hand while Keith was trying to pick up his glove. So Keith gave the little bitch a shot in the mouth.
