I agree on the matchups mismatch, but not too many ugly goals tonight. It is a team issue for the Pens far more than a Fleury issue.

MAF didn't lose the game. Not a single defensive player had an average game tonight. Everyone was beyond awful. Crosby, Kunitz, Dupuis and Kennedy were the only players who played decent games.

Neal is a shooter who can be physical, I don't expect much out of him when Malkin's offense is being crippled by the Flyers' best defensive line. Sucks, but that's kind of what I expected when we got him. They need to try some different lines next game. Throw Neal on Crosby's line, Sid has been making some great passes and Neal will bury them. Put Dupuis with Malkin, I think Malkin would really benefit from Dupuis' hustle right now.

How many times is a guy going to be there to knock in a rebound or sweep one past a sprawling flower? Defense is bad but Fleury has definatley been beyond pathetic as well. When this team has needed a save he has failed to provide it with one.

Well, it usually happens on a 2-1. Hard to control rebounds in that situation. He hasn't been that good, but we win tonight and game one if the defense plays anything better than shitty.

Holy fuck. The Flyers' radio guys are assholes. One in particular is advocating punching Crosby in the head as hard as possible.

"Now, I'm not advocating trying to injure someone, but......"

Um, yeah. You are. :lol:

Hey he started that... Good head shot would finish that quickly. Crosby has to be careful with his history
