The Pens are getting some timely goaltending but Ottawa isn't exactly the offensive juggernaut these days.

I laughed out loud when the Red Wings screwed the pooch in 9 seconds flat....

Didn't Ottawa lead the league in scoring this year? Oh yeah, they did... C'mon. Give credit where credit is due.

Actually they didn't, Montreal did... and they definately fell off at the end of the year. I don't think he was taking anything away from your Pens goaltending... he was just stating a fact regarding Ottawa's offensive prowess as of late.

In response to the Wings comments... that was rough... but damn that was a nice shot by Arnott (sp?).

Looked like Arnott hurt his ankle jumping in excitement over that goal. :)

I thought I gave credit when I said the Pens were getting some timely goaltending...? Yeah, I forgot that regular season success always translates into playoff success....

Ottawa's potent offense has been nothing of the sort.

Looks to me Ottawa, indeed, led the league in scoring ("goals for"). .

Sure, but doesn't team defense and

goaltending have a lot to do with that? I think the Pens have the best two goaltenders in the league. They've regularly outplayed some of the superstars. The Penguins were ranked tenth in goals against, which says a lot as well.

well that's in 5 on 5... total "goals for" it is Montreal... which is a better indicator since it is total scoring, not just 5 on 5. (seriously though it is one goal... and my point was only that they haven't been producing offensively the last month, playoffs included). http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/standi...Type=standings

Its all about the flames, San Jose scores 3 goals in under 5 mins and Calgary comes back to win with 2 goals on the powerplay I beleive.

Calgary is running into Penalty trouble though.

I don't know why the ESPN stats are different. The page I linked to (you know, at nhl.com) clearly shows Ottawa had more total goals - 258 to 257 - than Montreal in addition to more 5-on-5 goals.

The #1 team in scoring took a downturn the past month - that's fine. You don't go from having a big scoring lead to mud overnight. They're still a highly offensive team, and they've still only scored 4 goals in three games. Fleury's save percentage is still 0.956... And speaking of offensive, why the hell do they did they have a gay Spartan on the ice before a Senators game?

Everytime I see that thing I think of the Michigan State Spartans...

That is wierd that the two sites are conflicting... but, whatever I tend to agree that Fleury is a good young goalie despite some letdowns during his junior career. Hell, I'm just praying the Wings old man goaltender doesn't hurt his damn groin again... we have rode Osgood to the finals before, but it wouldn't be easy.

Please don't start this again. The NHL stats say the opposite.

I'd say it'd be hard to give the MVP to Crosby since he missed a pretty long stretch (only played 53 games this year). I don't even think he could get team MVP this year (would have to go to Malkin - 106 pts and +16 in 82 games). The kid is amazing though.

Ovechkin will likely get MVP.

Malkin was already voted team MVP, and deservedly so.

    • Day 355: more mirror work. Worked on some feels to get shaft lean without such extreme forward body movement. 
    • Yes, agree that there should be more TV coverage. I think the fact that they don't have the swing speed of their male counterparts makes it (slightly) more relatable, in that the rough is more of a penalty and the lack of distance means they are often pulling longer irons or lumber to get home on par fives. I think this season has been a bit tough on the LPGA to build much of a narrative with no one winning more than one tournament. And you could argue that they didn't really make hay with Nelly's run of wins, which should have been crowding out Caitlin Clark for female sports story of last year. One piece that they need to fix is the slow play - I would argue there is less player power compare to PGAT, so I don't understand why they aren't hitting the repeat offenders with stroke penalties. They have taken some strides in that respect this season, so let's hope Kessler continues the momentum.
