Scott Hartnell is the antithesis of guys like Jeff Carter & Mike Richards. They're both alpha male types, and both can be dicks, but Hartnell is deep down a good guy and has pure intentions. He knows what's right and does what he does in order to achieve that. It's kind of like a Dark Knight - Joker relationship. Hartnell does some questionable things, but at the end of the day he is a good guy fighting for what's right. Carter & Richards just want to watch the world burn. Paul Holmgren obviously recognized that the dichotomy in his team was too great, and he needed to get rid of one or the other. I'd like to say he made the right decision, but Richards & Carter are still on Los Angeles who are doing very well. I'm almost hoping now for a Flyers-Kings finals for a true, timeless battle of good vs evil.

It's really saddening as well to see the deterioration of Sidney Crosby. He was such a great leader, almost beyond human, who just wanted to win and could lead his team to victory. That gold medal winner was the epitome of greatness, and the pinnacle of legendary moments in sports. I hate to say it... it breaks my heart to say it, but maybe things would have been better if he just stayed injured forever. You either die a hero, or live long enough to become the villain. And Crosby has become a villain. It's so sad to see him go this way

Crosby has been a bitch his entire career, glad you finally realized WG.

Let's go KAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNNNNNNNGGGZZZZZZZZZ!

Hartnell is too good for his cheating whore of a wife. Hartnell is kinda like Jay-Z. Not the most physically attractive guy, but so elite in every other aspect of life that he deserves a top 10 women in the world. "Lisa Hartnell" who the hell is she? Some total random 10/10 blonde. Big deal. He deserves way better.

I think a Flyers/Kings final would pretty clearly have the Flyers labelled as the evil team.

In a few years, we'll all be embarrassed about the CUP that was gifted to the Pens by some horrible officiating.

That's if we aren't embarrassed already.

What a ****show they are... always.

Holy ****... we have a game!

MARTIN BRODEUR VETERAN WIM LEADERSHIP LEADING THE COMEBACK

My two favorite Eastern teams... so I'm conflicted

lol @ the panthers defensemen cross checking that guy into his own goalie.

Holy **** that was almost three.

solid save by fatty there

WHAT A SAVE!

New Jersey is probably winning this game at this point.

In what thread can I lol at Vigneault for benching lolongo?

I was at Boston Pizza a couple hours ago for dinner. Was pretty pleased this was in the lavatory;




Apparently the Lakers went to OT today at the Staples Center. The game ended around 3:30pm local time so that's about a 4 hour turnover. Expect terrible ice

Probably another one of Terry Peters' fantastic inventions. You're welcome.

Always love to time lapse shots of the switchover though.

Good God. PUT ONE OF THOSE IN!

How in the BALLS does he save that?

Jesus...

RATS

No earthly idea how the Devils don't score at some point
