I don't want to say the Pens took the Bruins too lightly, but in a way they have. Their mindset was probably, we will score 4-5 goals/game and that's how we'll win the series. But they didn't think, well what if we can't do that. The Pens had to be able to shut down Boston.

This to me is a coaching failure, although it doesn't help that Pittsburgh has very questionable goaltending.

Reading HF you'd think Iginla was Hitler. He hasn't been great but Pens fans should be much more upset with the play of Corsby & Malkin, their goaltending and overall coaching. IF they truly expected a 34 year old winger to come in and play like a superstar again they they were truly mistaken.

Fans need a scape goat, Iggy is an easy target.

Perhaps this has already been addressed in this thread, but it kind of makes me feel sad and old watching iggy in this series as he seems to be a peripheral player, not the beast he was the last time he got this deep.

The pens seemingly had a good strong push after the B's scored their first two, but the b's held on.....that fourth goal was seemingly a back breaker.

It would be interesting to have a fridge, matt Cooke a five year old and raffi Torres write the same iq test. My gut feel is that Cooke and Torres are during it out for 3rd and 4th place.....

CBC miked up Bylsma thinking the Pens would walk over the Bruins. A bit Premature.

At least Iginla is getting more ice time tonight, he's only behind Crosby and Malkin currently. So don't blame Blysma tonight for not playing him more tonight.

Cooke on the 2nd line instead of Iginla? That looks to be working out well so far. Bylsma is awful.

Letang -4. Please don't give this guy the Norris. I'd rather Subban (barf) win it.

He's a lone brightspot for them right now.

Their only offense has come off his stick save for Sutter's goal.

Total and complete meltdown, wow. I wonder what Bylsma said in the dressing room after the 2nd period.

Kind of ridiculous Pittsburgh didn't trade for Jagr what with the pedigree.

The defensive coverage of the Bruins should the diagrams the Penguins study tomorrow.

I think Boston is pretty happy that they ended up with Jagr instead.
