Cooke sucks.  When he gets suspended for the cheap shot on Cole, it will be good for the Penguins.
Carolina is faster than I thought.  They also utilized the Mike Richards wait, wait, cut, shoot strategy pretty effectively.  Pens never seem to be able to catch on that Richards is going to do it, will they figure it out with Carolina?

Cam Ward played great. He stopped 2 breakaways and absolutely robbed Bill Guerin. If he plays like that all series it’ll be a tough one for the Pens.

But not to be lost in it all, Fleury had a solid game as well and made a couple key saves to help get the W.

he’s not getting suspend.

Ward kept candy canes in that game but they didnt score enough goals.

They also utilized the Mike Richards wait, wait, cut, shoot strategy pretty effectively.

If Cooke gets suspended it will just prove that the NHL is F’d. Ovie’s was worse and no suspension.

Miro Satan UNDRESSED Ward. I think Ward’s jockstrap is still on the ice at the Igloo.

Sorry, I don’t pay attention to Facebook.  But how Richards spend his long summers is his business.
Cooke should get suspended.  He tried to do that more than Ovechkin tried to knee Gonchar. He is so slow reacting to the play and his puck skills look like mine.  As I said, he sucks.

Both goalies played well.  I expected it of Ward, Fleury was more of a wild card.  If all of the games are like that, its going to be a long series.

You mean the LEADER of ALL TIME Richards, If the Canes follow his lead they’ll be playing golf with him in week or 10 days
