Letang had an abysmal game. I cringed everytime he was on the ice. It'd be a shame if Pittsburgh lost this series because they can obviously play much better than this but are getting outclassed by the Islanders.

Nabokov and Fleury have both been very bad but Fleury didn't even look like an NHL goalie in that game

Bad goaltending sucks the life right out of teams, I can only imagine what atrocious goaltending does. If you're a player you have to be thinking, any shot near the net might go in.

After that donkey fest last year I assumed they picked up Vokoun to cover when Fleury is playing horrible. When the 4th goal went in they should have exercised that option.

I would laugh my arse off at the Penguins for taking a mediocre to crappy goaltender first overall in what is probably the deepest draft ever.......IF they hadn't lucked out and snagged Crosby and Malkin in the next two drafts.

Now I am worried that the Pens won't even make it out from this series with goaltending like that! They should've asked for Kipper as well when doing the Iginla deal.

Theoren should sue to prevent Marc-Andre from using his name.

I feel bad for Iggy, he's played really well and a big reason I want to see the Pens win a Cup. Now he'll be lucky to get past the 1st round, unbelievable.

Who would have predicted prior to this series the Isles would be tied 2-2 going into game 5.

When the playoffs started I wanted the Pens and Iggy to make it all the way to the cup. Now there's a part of me that wants to see the Islanders upset the Pens. It's very strange.

You couldn't care less about Iginla yet you go out of your way to say "suck it Iginla".

Again he is not retiring. Iggy will have many other chances to win the cup with the Pens.

Anyone else wondering if the Pens pick might come earlier in the first round then the Blues pick?

Go ISLANDERS! Wicked game, I hope they upset the pen's, I don't even care if iggy win's or not this year, he's time with the flames is over, so he's got a couple more years to win it elsewhere, so whatever, rather have a better draft pick

I will stop watching hockey if Fleury plays the next game. Vokoun was brought in for this exact scenario. Use him!

Let's not lose sight of the fact that it's not like this is his last chance. He can sign with any team he wants for the rest of his career and let's face it, with how he takes care of himself he could play another 5 years if he really wanted too if in a reduced roll.

Great to see that barn rocking, looked like a great atmosphere there.

Fleury, wow that was outright dismal. That has to be about the end of him for this playoffs, unless Vokoun has a similar meltdown.

Only happens if the Blues make it to the Conference Finals or better. Still need to beat the Kings and likely the Ducks or Sharks.

I'd love to cheer for Iggy, but he plays with Matt Cooke and it's even harder when he's playing against a guy I went to high school with. I am very happy with him getting points but I wish I could have an easier time cheering for him.
