Please No Mike Emrick announcing. He is a total tool and could not announce a mite game. Give me Pat Foley any day
I agree. It's the only way to get players to change their pattern of behavior.
Bolts 8 Pens 2?
There must be some mistake. Has there ever been such a lopsided score in the SC playoffs?
In answer to my own question, take heart. Francis Clarence McGee, (November 4, 1882 – September 16, 1916) was a legendary ice hockey player during the early days of hockey for the Ottawa Hockey Club, nicknamed the Silver Seven.[1] Although McGee was blind in one eye, he scored 14 goals in one Stanley Cup game, and five or more goals in a game eight times. Despite a brief senior career — only 45 games over four seasons — he led the Silver Seven in its reign as Stanley Cup champions for four seasons (1903–06), playing both centre and rover.[2] During World War I, he enlisted in the Canadian Army and died in battle in France. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1945.

What a nightmare that was.
At least the WB/S Penguins clinched their AHL series 4-2.
I’m hoping Pittsburgh does likewise on Monday.
Nashville Predators write their own history and advance to the second round for the FIRST TIME!! It’s great to be a fan! It’s a great day for hockey!
There’s going to be a new champion.
I'm also thrilled with all of the Game 7’s.
But I will be on pins and needles tonight when Pittsburgh plays their Game 7...
That was a great game last night but I'm glad the Hawks couldn't quite pull it off.
Pens are behind 1 - 0 but playing in the Bolts ice.
Pens got 2 man advantage with 1 min to go.
Bolts come back from 3-1 down.
Damn!
The Penguins season ends the way it began.
Weakly, with no offense to speak of.
Sorry, Bud.
And then there were 8...........
Hockey Ping!
