Game 3: Penguins @ Flyers 2009 Playoffs

[SouthP17CD]

NBC is a joke, and as a corporation as a whole, they just suck.. I only watch NBC games because of Mike Emrick, one of my favorite broadcasters.

[sortman94]

yeah i agree

[lisameyer]

hiya drew,

hey just wanted to correct my mistake: sykora had 14:24 of ice time game 3, not 17 min as i previously reported.

my gripe w/ peter gun never has been his goal tally, but OMG he almost never plays defensive side of puck! i feel geno has to play for both. put superstar max on 2nd line already!

ps. TK for prez ! lolol

peace out. love your channel. shalom.

[PerogieBoy714]

ok???? kinda stupid, oh well GO PENS!!!!!!!!

[DancingDivaAlex]

Haha where did you find that first picture it is so hilarious. NBC let us use the big screen for there broadcasts last year so why not this year?

anyway the game was a little sloppy but the pens will come back and win game 4

It's from the Pensblog. 2nd link in my description.

[SuperHenderson13]

tough loss, guys like gonchar, sykora, who should know better lost us the chance to win...

i think it was for the best, a little wake up call for the pens, but i would rather have lost game 4, then game 3

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

Yeah, I agree. The Pens will take this loss and it will fuel their fire for Game 4.

[DancingDivaAlex]

i agree but i would rather them have lost game 4 and not game 3

[UbaDaNooba]

Lets not forget that the game was played at 3p.m...the penguins record for games played in the afternoon this year well....sucks...I'm sure they will come back hard for the next game.

[29pens48fan25hockey]

nbc is horrible.

no excuses the pens played a bad game, there is no positions to blame it on, EVERYONE played horrible all they did was give the puck away nobody tried to set up plays and it was just sloppy work it breaks my heart saying this but its the truth it was all good up until the 2nd i honestly dont know what happend...

pens should have won that game plain & simple

[lisameyer]

i'd like to comment on 3 things:

1) NBC atrocious. they barely mentioned geno in pregame, never mentioned our 3rd line and their exceptional work, never mentioned our defense- scuderi/orpik etc

2) PP ? i don't even know what to say, seems they are looking for perfect pass instead of shooting.

3) kunitz played 9 min today and sykora getting 17 min a game? boo

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

Wow, no idea the ice time for Kunitz and Skyora went like that. Definitely shouldn't be that way. Skyora had several great chances and just couldn't finish. He hasn't looked good in quite some time. Meanwhile, Kunitz is playing lights out, that one hit was insane.

[DREADS613]

he was in the penalty box all game so that why

[bwhighfootball]

not really and the only reason i can remember for him being in there was for fighting

[DREADS613]

9 PIM...it defintely limited his ice i think

[bwhighfootball]

ok and 5 of them were fighting so that means he only took two penalties and now i remember that 1 was bullshit and after he laid someone out CLEANLY the guy retaliated and they both got sent to the box

[Chazwozel]

Tough loss today. It was the Pens fault for playing sloppy. Still lead the series, here's to a win on Tuesday and finishing off at home!

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

Agreed, some sloppy play, Flyers took advantage. They'll be ready for Game 4.

[felix2606]

yeah there were some sloppy plays! gonchar should have never lost the puck behind his net! but one thing i registered is that once the pens stopped to challange the flyers physical they took over the game! pens gotta focus on coming after the flyers hitting them with solid clean hits like kunitz did but stay away from the fighting! he should have waited for hartnell to take a penalty..the man is dumd enough to do it as he has proven before..so pens will win game 4!!

[Chazwozel]

I watched the game at home. NBC has THE WORST POSSIBLE ANGLES! That aerial goal onward view is so friggin retarded. Between that and Pierre not shutting the fuck up and NBC missing faceoffs to squeeze in one more commerical, I hope they lose all broadcasting rights for next year.

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

Are you talking about that aerial view on the powerplay? Yeah, I agree, what the hell was up with that?

And yeah, I can HEAR the players skating around while they are showing some stupid ad. I know I'm missing the action but there's nothing I can do.

thats gay
