Penguins 4, Rangers 3


What'd you expect? The game was at Pittsburgh.

There was no chance in coming back thanks to an atrocious 5 minute major call that was a direct response to the GM meetings a few weeks back, where staged fights and head shots were discussed. The rules are put in place in the offseason, not midseason! This is the second call we've seen against the Rangers related to those meetings since. The last one was when Dan Girardi was given an instigator and a misconduct for starting a fight after a clean hit a few games ago. It's too bad the refs have to decide a game and not let the players play.

No one's beating the Penguins. It's very frustrating. Crosby, Malkin, pig-face, Orpik- I can't stand them.

The Rangers played soft the early in the game. Pittsburgh was running them all over the place. Is it legal to push a guy from behind without the puck? Apparently so, the Pens were doing it all game and getting away with it.

Normally I don't root for injury, but I was so hoping Brooks Orpik took out his own knees by going after Drury early in the third period. Too bad he's ok- would've served him right.

Screw Crosby for crying about wanting an empty net goal with 4 seconds left after he got interfered with. Screw Malkin for taking a slapshot on the ensuing faceoff. The game is over.

I hate the Penguins. More than the Devils and Flyers. Ask me again after Monday night's game when I have to stare at Parise's mug and watch him complain to the officials.

Things get a little too interesting if the Panthers beat the Stars tonight.
