EQF (1) Pittsburgh Penguins vs (8) New York Islanders (Penguins win 4-2).

I say vokoun gets the start Sunday!

Isles coaches went crazy at the end there.

[expatflame]

Yes!!!

[OffsideSpecialist]

Yes! The series is tied!

Great to see the Isles take some big steps for that second game, particularly Nabokov who looks like he has settled in nicely. Hopefully they can go back to the Coliseum with a couple games of playoff experience and use home ice to their advantage!

As much as I want to see the Pens win because of Iginla, it was pretty cool to see the Islanders work the Pens over in the 3rd..That team just wanted it more.

[Kaine]

Well that was a pleasant text from a friend. Isles win and from the sound of it looked decent doing it. Glad the series won't be over quite as quickly as some figured. One sided games/series aren't much fun.

[kyuss275]

LOL. I turned it off at 3-1 Pitt. I figured it was going to be a blowout.

Wake up call for the Pens.

Its now a series, but I still think this is over in 5. Not terribly surprised with the result. The Pens are stacked and they dominated game 1. This should wake them up.

If they struggle in game 3 then I would be worried for the Pens.

Isles oozing with confidence now. Crosby comes back and they still beat the Pens. Should make this a better series than it was looking after game 1.

[Acey]

Miscommunications between Iggy and Malkin, Jokinen. They just need to play together for longer. Can they get it together in time to win the cup? I doubt it.

That's why they beat the Pens. All the Penguins who have been playing so well for the past month seemed to ease up once they saw that Crosby was playing effectively. Hopefully they give him some help from here on out.

They need to find something new to rally around.

The Pens won't win the cup because of Fleury. Chicago would absolutely eat him alive. They also don't have the greatest D core.

hhahahahahhaahahahaha.

Maybe the Pens should have traded for Kipper instead of Iggy. ahhahahahaha

Nothing about a hockey game is ever that funny.

Lame.

[The Swedish Flame]

I love an underdog. Nice to see that they're at least giving Pens a fight.

[kenk-la]

Nabokov settled down, as did the Isles, in the second period and then they just outworked the Penguins. It is always nice to have a series of it, the Isles have some confidence now, and I hope the Islanders do well at home.

Sure the Isles won in the end but are the boards in Nassau lively enough to replicate the formula for success? That game winner is hardly a repeatable play.
