    That is 500% bullshit. The fucking quickest whistle I've seen and totally unwarranted. That was horribly done. This officiating team has blown this whole series.

    While I agree that being insensitive is an issue, so is being oversensitive.

    With all the crap they've been doing with no calls in hopes that reviews will save their ass, what just happened totally mystifies me. I don't give a shit if he lost sight, you don't blow the whistle that quickly.

    Aww, Fleury giving it to Murray is sweet. It's gotta be tough to be in that spot but Fleury is so classy.

    Two years in a row that you can't spell "Cup" without "Penguins." It's a terrible joke and I don't care.

    Before Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, and all of the rest of Pittsburgh's big names joined the team, Fleury was the Penguins #1 draft pick. He was the start of the resurgence of the Penguins. He played fantastically during the first two rounds. But for two years in a row, he's ultimately been the backup goalie. Flower has handled the emergence of Murray with an incredible amount of class, and I'll miss him. Handing off the Cup to Murray was emblematic of how he seems to have treated Murray over the last two years.

    And you know? Props to Murray. He's played as well as any goalie in the league, and he has a bright future ahead of him.

    MAF won 9 out of 15 games and had a 0.924 sv% in the playoffs.

    Pretty good for a backup

    Three of the top 5 teams in wins in the playoffs in the salary cap era are not on that list of cup winners.

    So I guess I missed the "totally not an injury report but we can tell you now that we lost" article about the Sens. Was Karlsson playing with a fake foot and a missing finger? Anyone else on the team hiding grievous injuries? Anything for either of the two Finals teams; or is it too early?

    I'm not sure how I felt about Bonino and Letang suiting up for last night. I know it was symbolic -- and perhaps Letang is further along than I originally thought -- but something didn't feel quite right about that. Also if we're to believe the reports about Bonino's ankle, I'm impressed he was able to lace up his skates.

    BurtletoyBurtletoy Registered User regular
    Bonino said last night that he had a broken tibia

    And that the pens doctors gave him a shot last night so he could suit up and skate with the cup.

    Ian Cole had a broken hand and some ribs, I think I saw, as well

    Yeah, apparently since the Washington series. Hornquivst had a broken finger, didn't say from where. Haven't seen any other teams' reports at this point.


    Also, this Nashville fan is the best:

    Milbury getting crapped on is the highlight of last night. And props to former islander Mark Streit on his cup win too.
