and Kane-Panarin-Anisimov don't have the same speed as the Malkin line

Agreed on the speed but watching them play is amazing. Also, they get a lot of help from their D guys on that line, Seabrook and TVR.

Honestly though, have to say the most amazing offensive line I ever watched was Gretzky, Hull and Shanahan when they were the top line for the Blues!

So true, no idea why they didn't advance very far in the playoffs. That line had Al MacInnis and Chris Pronger supporting them on D, not to mention Grant Fuhr was a damn good goalie and Keenan was a solid coach!

if you go through my posts over the years here i think you'll see i'm pretty objective when it comes to the Pens.

Well that escalated quickly.

Calm down, sparky. It was a joke.

Guys, McLeod-Mitchell-Skille is the best 4th line in hockey. So there.

Not this weekend. Malkin is sitting out the FLA trip with a "nagging" lower body injury. :mad

I'm actually relieved. I thought he was done for the season. But yeah, here come the injuries. Stay safe out there, Sid!

so they've got Letang and Crosby firing on all cylinders right now

if Malkin can come back quickly and play like he did the first half of the year and Fleury can shake off the cobwebs, we may have something here...

Yeah, he was rock solid on D and had so much power in his shots. The year before Mike Luit was moved from St. Louis to Hartford MacInnis took a slapshot from outside the blue line that had so much force behind it it completely shattered Liut's goalie mask. Talk about some power in a shot, holy damn was that astounding.

I remember one time seeing Chris Drury dive face first to block a MacInnis slapper. Luckily the puck completely missed him, but just his willingness to do that cemented himself in my eyes as one of the gutsiest players to ever play the game.

Yeah, they really botched the redesign completely. No idea why they felt it necessary to reinvent a perfectly good wheel. On the plus side, when I spoke with them yesterday they said they had their tech guys working 24/7 to work out the bugs.

Wow, I have never seen coach Q so mad and rightfully so. Anyone who sees the replay of the Chicago goal that was called back by that idiot ref knows that it is not interference if an opposing player pushes someone into their goalie. It is so clear from the replays that even Stevie Wonder would know it is a good goal by Hossa. Then Q was so mad he yelled at the refs enough to get a 2 minute penalty and amazingly Phoenix converts so instead of it being 1-0 Chicago it is 1-0 Phoenix. Morons.

Edit: Also going back to the new nhl website. It is pretty amazing that they have no problem streaming crystal clear commercials with no issues at all but when the actual game is on it gets all choppy, refreshes quite often, looses audio and sometimes even looses video entirely. Whoever the mental midget who designed this new site does not know how to make a webpage in the slightest. Not idea what what the dimwhits at NHL were thinking. They had a perfectly good site and now it is a disaster. They better get this fixed quick or next season I am just getting the NHL subscription through my cable TV provider and to hell with nhl.com.

There's not nearly enough excessive swearing in this post. You okay tonight, Sulla?

what's even more ridiculous is that they felt the need to re-brand and change the gamecenter backend MID SEASON
like....ok :lol

I am usually calm but on occasion I will swear in anger. Watch the video on the called back goal (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxKXGewKCpA) and you can see why Q was so mad. It was only the first intermission for the game when I posted that with so I knew a lot of hockey was still to come and I also knew the Hawks had not found their groove yet and were struggling to stay in the O zone. Did you see any of the game? We all know that Chicago relies more on finesse then brute force but damn was that a battle that should have been played with pitchforks, swords and spears rather than sticks. Nice comeback for Toews too netting 2 with one to win in OT!

No I didn't watch the game nor have I seen the highlight of the call you speak of. Was just pointing out the noticeable lack of intense, excessive swearing. No commies, cock suckers, etc. That's my favorite part of when you get upset.

In sports, yeah I certainly have. I could not show emotion at the time but senior year in soccer I was elected by my teammates to be captain but our coach nixed it thinking I was a bad influence on other players so he gave the captains band to some dork who rarely scored and could not fire up a team to save his life. I have also punched holes in my closet 4 times because I was so frustrated at mental errors or bad calls. Hell, there is even a $300 aluminum bat that I tossed into a lake after going 2/4 but lining out with the tying run on 3rd to end the game.

Darnell Nurse has his parents in attendance last night and got into a fight. This was their reaction to him crushing the other guys will to live.

That's a brave man. 4 kids of any variety sounds insane to me.
