It's second intermission right now and as I sit here I have to agree that I like the Pens chances with the Caps out of it. There was an article on the Pens website about how the players are watching tonight's game. The players say they don't care who wins. I bet, however, the are rooting for the Habs. Think about it, the Habs advance and you have a team that you are 3-1 against and the Caps advance and you have a team you haven't beaten all year. I'll be a Habs fan tonight, but for tonight only.

Getting ready to watch the Habs - Pens game 5. It is honestly too hard to tell who will come away with this series. The Habs are playing good hockey but I think the Pens are still more talented.
Let's Go Pens!

Fleury is returning to form. I don't see the Pens losing this series.
LOVED game 5...waved my new towel around!

After tonight I very much see the Pens losing this series. You can not let a team like the Habs stick around. Maybe the Pens playing with desperation will help. We'll see.
I am glad you waved you towel around, do it again Wednesday night.

Well if nothing else at least the Flyers have made a series out of it. I'd love to see them take it to a game 7, but we'll see. Obviously momentum is on their side at this point and they're coming home for game 6, but .... home hasn't actually been much of a help to them so I dunno how this will play out.
I do think, to some degree, Boston is on the ropes a little bit. If the Flyers can jump on them early in game 6 and continue to get inside their heads, maybe ....
As far as the Pens/Habs series goes, I'd be worried if I was a Pens fan. The Caps took the best team in the Eastern Conference to a game 7 and won ... they're not going to be intimidated by this game and the pressure is clearly all on the Pens.
Wouldn't it be something if the Eastern Conference Finals featured the 7 seed hosting the 8 seed???!

I don't think they let them hang around. Sometimes you get lucky, sometimes you don't. Pens were all over them last night, but three times hit the iron on shots. Any one of those goes in and you have a whole new game.
They definitely lapsed for a bit in the last period though. Bylsma has to correct that tomorrow night or it's the final game at the Igloo.

I agree 100%. I think the Habs really do believe they are not supposed to be there and are having fun with it playing as a team. The pressure is completely on the Pens to win. Fortunately, the Pens have a few players (Talbot, Crosby) who thrive on that pressure. I, as a Pens fan, am just scared that a team like the Habs (likely with Gill back) can very much upset the Pens, especially if Halak is better than Fleury.

Disappointed in the Pens but not surprised. The Stanley Cup Champions did not play as such and they did not deserve to win. Not that the Habs did not play very well. First the Caps, now the Pens. This Canadiens team could win the Cup. In fact, they have to be the favorites especially if Halak keeps playing as well as he has.

Ahhhhhh .... it was a good night last night.
Who'd have thought the Flyers would outlast the Pens in the playoffs??

Agree 100%. Halak is on a roll. His play over Fleury's was the difference in this series.

Hate to burst your bubble bro, but they made it to game seven of round two just like the Pens.
Now if they WIN, then you got something there!

Oh wait, they aren't.

Being a Pens fan, I was disappointed with Game 7. The fans showed up but the players..I think forgot too. I think Montreal could take it this year. Loved the days of Patrick Roy!
I am proud of the pens and I hope they open with a strong season next year in their new home.
The only thing I didn't get was how canada would boo Crosby on the ice..After all, Team Canada brought home the gold for their country. That's nothing to boo about!

I found the booing of Crosby very unsettling. This same group of fans also had 41 of their people arrested last night "celebrating" a conference semifinal win. I guess their are bad apples in every bunch. People say Crosby was booed at the Mellon the game after the olympics. I was at this game and the footage of his goal being shown the second time was booed but our captain himself was never booed nor should he have been.
