Congrats to the Kansas City Penguins on their third Cup.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

It was a horrible whistle. That's the fucking point.

Huge asterisk on this one. That goal counts and they're playing Wednesday.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

I believe you mean Hamilton, Ontario Penguins.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

That little giggle from Daley was awesome.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

Glad Richard and Howe won't have to share their name with bitch ass Crosby

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

He lost sight of the puck and thought Murray had it so he blew the whistle - it is what refs are instructed to do. Plus, it was that jerk sissions who put it in so karma is a bitch after his cheapshot on Maata in game 5. Additionally the refs knew it was a quick whistle so they gave a REALLY soft penalty to Sheary and then ignored clear cut penalties by rinne, sissions and ellis.

Regardless, congrats to pittsburgh fans - very happy you all beat those dirtbags even if it ties Crosby and Toews for cup wins.

No clue why the Conn Smyth was given to Crosby to be honest - my short list would have been Malkin, Guentzel and Murray.

Last thing - what a dumb ass penalty Daley took to make it a 5 on 3, luckily it did not cost the pens.

LATER TRASHVILLE - see you next season, take your catfishes and shove them up your asses! Way to go Pens, well earned victory, truthfully I have no idea how they advanced over the Jackets and the Caps given all their injuries and banged up players. To the preds, you all just got hot at the right time - the last team to qualify for the postseason goes to the final (aided by a lot of calls going their way) but got a big smackdown against a better team finally! :multi

Watching from a bar in mexico. That was so stressful.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Crosby for CS is a little fucking strange. Murray would have been a great choice.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

Someone is still bitter from that sweep. Its ok, you had just as many wins as the Flyers this postseason

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

^ Yes, I know why he blew the whistle. I also know he had a horrible angle, and simply had to wait half a second until he was behind the line and he would've seen the puck was never close to covered.

Awful call decided the series. Awful.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

I thought they should have challenged that for offsides, not goalie interference. Stupid choice by Laviolette because that could have been called back for a possible offsides IMO - at least from the angles I saw but challenging on interference had no chance on getting that one called back.

Sorry Laviolette, that is twice in 7 years your team got beat by a better team - last time in 2010 the Hawks beat the Flyers down and now this. TS buddy! :lol

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

It was the right call from the angle he had though, as for it deciding the series, even if it counted the Pens had more than enough time to tie it up or ho ahead - not to mention even if it did decide THIS game there would still have been a game 7 in Pittsburgh. So yeah, that certainly did not decide the series by any means.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

At this point you are trolling, cool it man.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

It was the 8 seed bro. Hawks got sweeper by the 8 seed, so Hawks fans can STFU

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

It was a joke bud. Chill out

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

Later dude, see you in a week troll.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Its all Murrays fault.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

There are two refs on the ice. Give it a second and get the call right.

As for it deciding the game, did you watch it?? Zero chance Pittsburgh was scoring with how well Rinne was playing, especially if he had a 1-0 lead. The call decided the game tonight which negated the chance for a game 7. Thus it decided the series.

Awful, awful call. Period.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Preds had a ton of chances to get it back. Had 5on 3, didnt have to pk.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Tough to lose in such a bullshit way. I loved how well this team played all year. I knew there was something special about them even throughout the regular season and they really shined and showed how good they really were. Congrats to the Pens. I now officially hate your team but luck didn't win you games 2 and 5 so we had our chance. Lsculla FUCK YOU and FUCK THE HAWKS.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

Brohan' sheer hatred for the Pens severely outshines his love for the Caps. It fascinates me.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

The Preds did have their chances to get it back. Murray's save on the breakaway and that one that tipped off his glove were huge. Preds PP was kind of garbage. They're a fun young team. I have a feeling they'll get another chance.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

If the ref loses sight of the puck, there's no giving it a second. It sucks when something like that happens, but it wasn't illegal or nefarious.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Miss you Chad, sorry about the lose

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

At least Brohan got banned, that's one good that came out of this

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters!)
 

God Bless

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Sarah! Yeah it was a tough one but what can ya do.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

They had their chances. I'll probably never let that goal go though. Gonna be bitter for years whether they had chances or not. Still, Pens won so that's that.

Their seeding this year was definitely deceiving. Those of us that followed the season know the injuries and the 3v3 OT were the only things keeping us from being higher. I think the future is indeed very bright.

Re: The NHL Thread (where the Presidents Trophy matters but covering the puck doesn't
 

Lol all the whining in here

Pens are better than Nashville, and that's no knock on Nashville
