Malkin is closer to Lemieux in terms of his skill set along with his sheer size. Crosby is more akin to Gretzky (minus the goal scoring ability of his youth) or a slightly better all-round game of an Adam Oates; plus the fact that I think he'll learn to play defense. Maybe he's like Yzerman? He has alot of growing up to do, but it is in his reach if he commits to a total team game.

Zetterberg seems due, but so does Crosby.
-
-
I would peg Franzen for an unassisted goal, if he happens to get it. I wish the announcers would pronounce his name correctly.
-
Lidstrom. Point shot with a deflection, but he'll start the goal.
-
-
-
-

Has Malkin had the puck without giving it away this game? Man, should be a good OT, but Detroit has been owning them in the last period.

Hossa continues to be one of the most underrated players in the league. :(

Staal has played exceptionally well.
-
-
Pens are the 1st team he's actually performed for in the post-season. He was a 40-goal man for the Sens, and consistently stunk it up during the playoffs. I think he had but one decent post-season for the Sens. I didn't follow him in Atl., but I think there's a reason he's in Pittsburgh now.
That said, he is AMAZING this playoffs, and still really like the fact he's a fucking bull on the puck. I remember watching him for the Senators, stickhandling with one hand on the stick, the other arm holding off a defender as he circled the net. So hard to move off the puck.

Lidstrom winning it in the last second with a slapshot from the blue line would have been epic!!

I was certain that was gonna be it.

Haven't you seen the classic Van Damme movie Sudden Death?
-
With the Penguin mascot fight.
-
-
That is truly the worst best fight in movie history.
-
-
-
Not during the playoffs. Only regular season games, and World Championship games (maybe Olympics too, who knows) end with shoot-outs.

While I agree with the first reply about this being pointless, I have to ask why they were so bullshit. I mean, I'm not very into hockey but it sounds like the rules state you can't stop a goalie from doing his job. If you run straight into the fucking goalie on your own accord I don't see how it could NOT be a penalty.
-
and while I think I only got to see a single replay of it, the action resulting in a penalty called on a Pittsburgh player was FAR less game-affecting. Don't remenber if it was interference or hooking or what now, but I think a player's stick crossed on the other side of an opposing player's body.

you can't be proud of your team after that game can you? they gave up a 2 goal lead and 3 goals in a row. sure they tied the game up but then they played ~2.5 periods of shit until getting a couple shots on net in a pp that lead to a goal. be happy for the win but there's nothing to brag about in this game

This logic is going nowhere. YOU can't be proud of your team after that game can you? They lost to the team you just described. They out-shot the other team by like 50% and got fewer goals. They got three consecutive goals in regulation, two within 3 minutes of each other, and couldn't net a single one in three periods of overtime even during a power play.
and on and on

The great thing is Sykora said he was gonna shoot the game winning goal. He did.
Fucking awesome. -
-
-
Seriously though. The Pens are far and away the underdogs here, but crazier shit has happened in the world of hockey. Remember the Oilers narrowly escaping an empty net goal and then coming back in the last 20 seconds to tie the game to force an overtime and subsequent win? Yeah, kind of like that, but with the Pens and one Mr. Stanley.
