Reason: removed slur.
It sure was fun to see all of those goals last night, but that is not what impressed me the most. Aside from maybe three minutes in the 3rd, Pittsburgh played the most up-tempo, relentless, in-your-face hockey I have seen from this current crop of Penguins. The Lightning looked bad because we made them look bad. The Bolts never touched the puck without immediate pressure. They had zero time to find a teammate before they were knocked off the puck.
I know it'll be tough to match their intensity from last night, especially with traveling to Montreal last night, but this is how they need to play!
This will be a much tougher game than Tampa Bay last night and I reckon it'll be a closer result with it either going for a 3-2 Montreal win or a 4-2 Pittsburgh win. We seem to struggle against Montreal, Cammalleri to be precise, but they've faltered recently and now is probably the best time to face them. Crosby to score please.

Tonight,ladies and gentleman, i recommend you to get ready to hear endless whining about officiating from the craziest NHL fanbase.Surprised theres no mainboard "crying about refs" thread already.

Go Pens!!!!!!!!!!!
Lets hope HCDB gives them the morning off and that the players hit the sack as soon as they got to their hotel.
Because Jacques Martin is incompetent and likes to destroy the morale of young players.
I dunno. From what I've seen of him the adrenaline has definitely worn off. Not that he's a bad player, quite the opposite, but his progression seems similar to that of J. Staal. Light it up your rookie year then come down to reality and have to work on some things the next year.
Is this the first time we've played Montreal? I can't even remember. Hard to believe we're only halfway through.
Let's see what cammalleri and co. can play against a much better defense. It will be harder for the have beens to score without gonchar standing around on the ice.

Played in early October, Habs won 3-2. I think that's the only other time so far.
What is the deal with pk subban? Why has he been a healthy scratch so often?
Some are saying in the media that he isn't getting along with some teammates, especially Plekanec which they got in 2 little scraps during practice recently

They beat us earlier in the year and Cammalleri killed us again not sure if you're aware
