Lookout Willis Reed….
Banged-up defenseman Sergei Gonchar practiced with the team this morning.
While it’s still unknown whether Gonchar will dress in tomorrow night’s Game Seven, Stan Savran stated on ESPN Radio 1250 this morning that Gonchar was seen last night in the locker room with no brace and no noticeable limp, just a discolored knee.

So in other words, Pittsburgh was lying about the severity of the injury to try to get Ovechkin suspended? I’m shocked that a team with such leadership would try such a stunt.

Did you see Crosby’s helmet came off after a check and everyone booed when there wasn’t a call? Yeah… he flung his head back with such exaggeration that his helmet popped off.

Wow. Just… wow. Yeah dude. It’s a conspiracy.

Disregard my last comment, I was obviously on drugs and didn’t perceive reality correctly at that time.

Pittsburgh never said anything about how long he’d be out other then “day by day” and “gametime decision.”
It was the media that somehow found this 2-3 weeks idea.
Imagine that, the media exaggerating something, or, oh my, making something up!
No, they would never do that.
