>mfw the Sharks will win the next 2 games in San Jose and reverse the momentum
Yeah they better I bet a fucking 6 pack on then with a coworker and the pens already fucked me by beating Washington

They fucking better or the series is over.
Sharks may have choked a 3-0 series lead, but the Penguins won't
I wish I had your faith OP. Experience watching this team over the years has taught me to expect failure when it matters most.
YFW the Sharks have NEVER won a finals game
>>68036277
HAHA, no
No such thing as mementum between games
Pens fan here. I'm still not letting myself get overly optimistic, not after the last 6 years in the playoffs. I just hope Crosby has learned his lesson and evokes the same attitude among the rest of the guys, now that he's one of the "older" guys.

I swear I can't be the only pens fan who can't fucking stand crosby
kessel and hagelin make for a better duo than crosby and malkin

I can't not like Sid and Geno, but I hate them together on the ice. Especially on the PP. They get too cute with the puck. It drives me crazy seeing them spend 60 seconds trying to make the perfect setup, only to fuck it up without getting a shot off. That's also on Tocchet, who should have been let go with Johnston.
Yeah, the chemistry between Bill and Hags is a thing of beauty.

Crosby and Malkin have done wonders for this team in the post season just by being on the ice. The HBK line is magical, but having those two makes the team infinitely better by constantly drawing attention off and you getting so much of the youngsters like Rust and Sheary putting the goals away because of how much space they get. Plus Crosby has been as good a leader this postseason as anyone. The knock on him has always been immaturity and piss poor leadership especially in the stanley cup playoffs, while right now he looks all business and locked in and is leading his team calmly. That kind of stuff can't be ignored. Plus he's been fucking outstanding out the gates of this cup final. Lest we forget Crosby leading the entire NHL in points over the last 50 games of the season and having an NHL best +26 in that same time frame.

Crosby and Malkin aren't meant to be a duo, you fucking retard.

>I swear I can't be the only pens fan who can't fucking stand crosby
You aren't. I can't stand him either, but still love the team.

There is less than 10% chance that Shorks will win now
