As a Penguins fan, I'd prefer if Babcock kept Osgood in.

Blackhawks fell apart.. this series is over. See you in the finals, Detroit, unless there is an unbelievable collapse in either conference.

Yep. Let him rest now, better than him getting run into. And it's good to let Conklin see some action, you never know when something may happen and we'd have to put him in.

As long as we both make it (which we should) I'm really looking forward to the rematch. :)

Hossa has been looking good today hopefully he'll get a hat trick for his effort. Why no Chelly you'd think Babcock would let him play quite a bit this 3rd period infront of the old hometown fans.

Another Zetterburg PPG 6-1 now they'll try to set up both him and Hossa for the hat trick

I'm looking forward to it, kind of. Unfortunately I don't see the Pens beating the Wings. The Pens' defense and goaltending has been too shady, and the Wings will show up.

Nothing like complete and utter domination without 2 or our bes players and a good faceoff man.

I think Franzen has 21 goals in his last 25 playoffs games. Pretty amazing.

You're smoking crack if you think Huet's anywhere near as bad as Theodore. First of all Huet stole his job because he was just better back in '05-'06. Huet's numbers are way better than Theodore's all around. For example shutouts are 28-20 in favor of Theodore in spite of 270 more starts for Theodore.

Huet's allowed 1 goal or less 14 times this year--he's definitely been the more hot/cold goaltender than Bulin. He absolutely carried this team when Bulin was on the IR the first time and he's got decent career playoff numbers. Jose Theodore he is not.

You talk about career numbers, I was just talking about the way he matches up against the Wings.

Today proved me correct.
