Geno has been infuriatingly inconsistent these playoffs. Not good/bad, but great/doesn't give a fuck about hockey or you or anything. Either a holy terror or he looks like he'd rather be anywhere else in the world.

I can't see the game. Does Boston look that good, or the Pens that bad?
Little from column A, lot from column B.


edit: Which isn't really fair, if the B's weren't playing so well the Pens would be able to pressure more and the whole complexion would change.

A bit of both maybe. B's are moving the puck well at times to expose the Pens, but it's been shitty D on Pens part as well. Rask has made some solid saves too to prevent the Pens getting any momentum.

Can you go back to Vokoun though? At this point with both a problem, don't you have to go back to Fleury and just hope he finds his game?

So back to Vokoun next game it is.
Yeah, I'm more comfortable with that still honestly. He was getting hung out to dry, Fleury let 2 in that were just wide open shots with no deflections or screens or anything.

Oh well, I'm gonna go crysturbate myself to sleep. Tears make the best lube.

Who is the best goalie in the playoffs? I recall some disagreement before the series started.

Yeah that was a silly argument, it's pretty clearly Rask. I don't think anyone but a massive asshole could argue otherwise. I mean just a real piece of shit, someone who would fuck their own mother for a nickel would be required to even pretend otherwise.

Crawford now has better stats than Quick in GAA and is basically even in SV%

It just looks like Fleury doesn't have much confidence in himself. I think his season is over (unless theres a Vokoun injury/flop). He needs time to get his head right.

Chicago is a vastly better offensive team than the Kings and they had to play a back to back on the Road. 36 shots the fucking day before and with his style? Yeah, I'm going to say he was tired.

Also, refs.

Who said anything about refs? Chicago has clearly outplayed the Kings, so far you've been a much better team. It's not just one player.

Would you say that Crawford has been a better goalie than Quick?

Nope. He's had it fucking easy and blown bad chances. Quick has been under fire from the opening drop.
