I need a beer.
It might go on ‘till football season.
I hope it doesn’t end like the Sand Jose Game.
San=Sand (Too much diet soda)
Have another Rolling Rock!
I know, I am the only person in the world that noticed that.
Meanwhile, the young Pens seems to be getting stronger.
YYYEEESS!!! Triple OT! This is excellent!
I don’t want to to end!
I haven’t posted on this thread tonight because I can’t seem to leave the couch...this reminds me of the night I was sitting in Miami Arena watching the Avs Vs Panthers in Game 4 and it was 0-0 in 2 OT...just insane playing here.
We have the radio on and TV muted. This game has many parallels with the Dallas-San Jose game. I wished I hadn’t stayed up for that one. I think the Penguin’s young legs are an advantage.
I would just like to say that I had half of my Freeper Fantasy Hockey team filled with Red Wings..Osgood was my goalie all year long and some how I still finished 8th!!! WTF!?!
Go Wings

Hi MFH. I have some roots here. I was the official scorer for the Pens for 7 years. I got the job by default. Nobody wanted to do it when they sucked. I got $27 a night and free parking.
That longest one is almost 6 overtime periods on top of the 3 regulation periods. I imagine they were a little tired at the end of that one. :)
Tedd Lindsey lived up the street from me when I was a kid. We kids would play hockey on the frozen over street and he would come out and give us pointers. His face looked like a baseball. Abel, Lindsey and Howe ~ greatestest line ever!!!
xp, they are some fabulous numbers. Thanks. Your good.
I think everyone should have to take off their helmets and then put a deer on the ice with them when they least expect it. PULL.
FOUR minute penalty—wow, this could do it....
Four minute penalty.

AND IT DID-—over! wow...game 6 here we come!
