The NHL Playoff Thread

[Youngblood]

Man that third period had me nervous the Pens were playing straight defense. I don't think the puck left there side much at all. Nice to see them go into Detroit and take the one that matters most.

Yea I hate when teams do that. Pens did it twice in this series, and it worked both times, games 5 and 7. Each time I cringed watching them protect a lead, because that usually mean that defensive play is letting offence come to them, and as you say, therefore on their side of the ice. It backfires too often and is ugly to watch. But guess it worked this time.

Yea, I'm pretty happy for the Pens. Detroit has won 4/12 last Stanley Cups. That's plenty.
