Kris Letang's seven-and-a-half-minute shift. WOW. Sure, there was the Kunitz Kick timeout for a breather, and three seconds off for a face-off, but he was on the ice from 9:20 to 16:51 in the third. Guess that off-season cardio pays off!
This game is good for the HCDB Video Collection. Just title it "The Do's and Dont's of Playing the Flyers."
I watched the replay of the Miller save on Neal in the third and I got a huge kick out of the reactions of Sid, Geno and Neal. Tie game, late in the third, perfect play, got stoned by the goalie -- and all three guys skated off with big smiles.
Confidence is high, I repeat, confidence is high.
@Darth Mutski Gotta be somewhere on Sunday. I won't watch it on TV, if it comes down to that.
I wasn't scheduled to be at work during Games One through Three. I'm on tonight and Friday night, but not Sunday.
At least the ANALysts who predicted Bolts in six were wrong. The ones who picked the Pens? Almost all of them had it going seven.
kkobers I'm thinking that the operative words in your true statement are "right now." But imagine you're a GM, a day or two away from the deadline, and you've still got this future UFT on your hands. Getting anything for him would be a bonus.
