They actually let both teams play without having to worry if their stick is parallel to the ice when it’s lightly tapping another player. Both teams were getting away with tons of shit, so it’s not like it was all one-sided. ---

Wings pretty much out-played the Stars all over the rink tonight. ---

Timmonen out indefinitely with a blood clot for the Flyers. That’s a key loss, I wonder how much affect it’ll have on tonight’s game and the rest of the series. ---

Yeah, not often you get rewarded for getting crushed in the corner and pussying your way back to the blue line. I can’t believe that. ---

penguins got a ton of breaks in that game… and as much as i dislike philly too it was pretty lame to see hatcher make a nice defensive 1 on 1 play to stand up malkin like that and then get called for imaginary holding lol ---

Still calling Penguins in 5. Games are too close for Philly not to pick up one at home, especially given they get last change so they can get the matchups they want. ---

But I’ve never really liked Pittsburgh at all with the Sid the Kid hype and all that. He needs to toughen up his play to earn more respect. So that being said, I don’t want to see Pittsburgh win the Cup.
