Malone put a move on that would make Pavel Datsyuk blush but he just couldn't get it in the net.<BR/><BR/>Faux: The Penguins are a very good team, but I think expectations are a little high; they're not going to win every game 7-1! You're right to point out just how over-match the Isles were on paper, but that just goes to show without an honest effort, the better team is not going to win.Hooks Orpikhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04043702689071051472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786036042939190292.post-11197879774251089682008-03-25T08:49:00.000-04:002008-03-25T08:49:00.000-04:001) Yes it was a road game against a division rival...1) Yes it was a road game against a division rival, but the Isles lineup was filled with guys who'd have trouble making Wilkes-Barre, maybe even Wheeling!<BR/>2) Going in, we expected a 7-1 or perhaps more drubbing. Perhaps the Pens felt likewise and over looked a team that had nothing to play for, and only 2 NHL caliber defensemen in their lineup, their back up goalie playing, and their leading scorer(Comrie) sitting with the flu? <BR/>3) We bet the Isles get whats coming to them Thursday in a rematch. Also have to be a tad worried about Sid's slow recovery. Hopefully they are just being overly cautious with the playoffs 2 weeks away?FAUX RUMORShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00403913043629362701noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7786036042939190292.post-83071326785786097002008-03-25T05:18:00.000-04:002008-03-25T05:18:00.000-04:00even being a hardcore flames fan, and avid hockey ...even being a hardcore flames fan, and avid hockey fan (typical Canadian) I thought Malone's move late in that game was absolutely sick, he didn't score, but he gave the defencemen (don't remember who it was) a little "how she going" and it was noteworthy...Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
