Hawk what the F 
what is with Elliot this year? Another shutout, that is what like 5 shutouts in 10 games? Is STL going to make it through first round?
To the posted above - there is no way Pens losing to Rangers this time.

If Rangers win Game 2 I can totally see it, otherwise it might be a quick 4-0. But honestly super hard to count the Rangers out, the team is just built and coached to grind out and win playoff games.

holy fucking refpuck tonight
|
goddamnit the blue line cameras 1 inch decide on the game wtf.
|
Lundqvist <3 Zucc is stepping it up
|
gotta agree with Blisse, you never rule out Rangers especially if Hank is alright. Lesson learned for Pens tonight.

He was so good at the end of that game. if the Rangers offense scores like they did today they can beat anyone.

The hockey being played in this Sharks/Kings series is so good. It's too bad that one of these teams will be out in the first round.
That said, fuck the Kings.

I love how much salt the Blues fans were spitting last night after the game. Yes coaches challenges are stupid and that offsides call swung momentum in the game but Tarasenko didn't have to get goaded into that shitty penalty by Shaw. The Blues broke mentally and the refs wrecked a really solid game. Could be the difference breaker going into Chicago.

I like the Blues and Rangers so I am definitely biased, but it happened again today where the Ranger's goal was challenged and almost ruled offside for something that would've been like an inch off.
Like I get calling blatant offsides when refs just fail to look at the puck, but like it's literally an inch. Either have more accurate and high resolution cameras do the detection like tennis does, or make it lenient - if it's pretty much onside then it's onside. Some guy compiled a bunch of owner's comments and they all agreed that the challenge should only be used for blatant plays, not these close ones.
It's just a bummer because instead of cheering for a goal for or against, I have to spend a couple minutes anxiously waiting for someone to make sure it's a good goal. I bit against the spirit of the game I think.

someone said that rangers are using the IR excuse to intentionally scratch Girardi XD

my thoughts exactly, i dont get it how the ruling against offside play (not having a player sitting in the opposite zone) suddenly turned into something technical and robotic. Really kills all the creative plays and damages the hockey spirit. The cameras are OK to help refs when they are not sure, but challenging on the matter of inches is just silly.
