Hossa must be cut! He hasn't had a goal in white some time.

LeTang with two slashes/hooks and a cross-check on Kaner = nada!

That really was a piss poor officiated game. In my memory I never have seen a ref call a penalty right in front of him and later talk to other officials and turn it over. It was one thing about that puck going off the Pens stick and that call reversed but no way that Crosby's should have been reversed.

I would bet that the linesman said something about what happened a few seconds earlier against Crosby no being called and that this was a make up non-call. Like I said, I never saw it ever before.

When released out of the box Crosby was smirking the whole time...sat on the bench smirked at the coach. He looked like he really wanted to laugh out loud in disbelief.

Thought Cumiskey had another nice game. One turnover in his own end in the corner, but other than that he showed nice speed, good positioning, and a good first pass. Thought Oduya has played two nice games in a row as well. Cumiskey is likely a Q sort of guy, considering their past, so Rundblad may be seeing more of the press box...which is where I'd like to see him on a Stanley Cup contending team.

Hartman didn't get much of a chance to shine today. He is going to make rookie mistakes but as long as he keeps bringing energy, there could be a place for him. Really, really hoping that a rookie steps up and makes things difficult on the Blackhawks. Hasn't quite happened yet.

Starting to think that it is time one of Shaw/Bickell sees some time on the fourth line. Sharp should never be on the fourth line. I don't care if the Blackhawks fourth line isn't a "prototypical" fourth line...Smith/Kruger aren't going to help bring out the best in Sharp and utilize him to his full capability. Same goes with Versteeg being on the fourth - considering that Sharp/Versteeg switched off at times throughout the day.

A whole lot of Crosby hate in here...but damn is the guy incredible to watch (probably why people enjoy hating on him so much). Was also thoroughly impressed with the way Malkin uses his body when he has the puck. See plenty of these guys on TV but I suppose you take more notice when they play the team you root for.

Exciting game on Wednesday - Red Wings have been playing great this year.

People don't hate on Crosby because of his game... he's undoubtedly skilled. He's just a fucking crybaby, and that naturally rubs people wrong. Rightfully so imo. Don't be a *****, people won't hate you so much? :dunno:

The way he was cheesing after he got that lucky bounce in the shootout... I almost drop kicked my TV

Crosby is the Erin Rodgers of hockey. Best player in their sport (although Erin is debatable) but both *** assholes with that smirk. Both are giant pussies as well, so they are protected by the officials.

Didn't watch a second of the game and haven't even seen clips of it.

Looks like Cory had a good game via the 3 stars though so that makes me happy.

Never been a fan of Sunday morning hockey games so I will rack this one up as I didn't care and still don't. **** YOU NHL!! :)

Anyone else think Crosby should get a six game suspension for his brutal, heinous and viscous cross check on Kane?

You guys that missed the game, why not DVR it watch when you have time to see it. You can skip commercials and the intermission crap.

I don't have a DVR, but might watch it using NHL vault service tonight or tomorrow. Depends on how much free time I have.

While I'm not so much against the fact that they went back and re-looked at what was obviously a bad call, I can't help but think that if it wasn't Cindy Crybaby, it would have never happened in the 1st place--especially with Regis, Eddie, and Doc singing the ref's praises while being choked by Crosby's nuts.

Still, monster game for Crawford IMHO. Glad to get the 2 points.

The Capt. sure has his number, though, doesn't he? I think that he makes it his personal challenge to outwork Crosby and win the battles. He did it again SUnday.
