Yep. Keeping it close for the home fans.

Not that it was the cause of that goal per se, but I am bewildered that (a) players don’t immediately go to the bench to get a new stick and (b) coaches don’t tell their players to do exactly that. You’re more or less useless out there without a stick anyway, go get a new stick!

Wait for a dman to have the puck, charge and slide at the puck, then continue on to the bench

This post is terrible. Are you watching this game?

That would be nice, but the Pens obviously play infraction-free hockey, so you're probably asking for too much.

Ridiculous that both goals against were after 2 blatant non calls against Pittsburgh.

[Coach]

Isn't it illegal to not have the knob of your stick taped?

[Brendone]

+1 for going to get a new stick. Hate that so much. If it’s a defence man a forward should give up his stick and go get one.

never understood standing there, being useless

On the long change? No way a player is going to abandon his teammates.
On a PK?

A bad clear by Czarnik leads to a fluke penalty and a broken stick and then a fluke bounce to Crosby.

I honestly didn't know he had that many points. Man time flies.

Yeah pretty frustrating as the Flames have played well but the officials have not had a great afternoon.

[Manhattanboy]

Has 19 forgotten how to play?

Smith bails out a lazy Tkachuk

[GranteedEV]

Hanifin can't gamble like that there

[Jeff Lebowski]

What are they doing? Not good hockey right now. Win battles.

[zamler]

Nice one Smitty.

Smith with that Patty Roy embellishment
