    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    These Penguins are a bunch of cowards. I'd be embarrassed if I was a Penguins fan. Lemieux must be so proud. Shanahan is really screwing these fines & suspensions up by basing it on the injury.

    Pittsburgh forward James Neal will have hearings on Tuesday with the Department of Player Safety for two separate incidents in Sunday's Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Quarterfinals series against the Philadelphia Flyers.

    Also, Pittsburgh forward Arron Asham has been offered an in-person hearing Tuesday morning for his match penalty for cross-checking Brayden Schenn at 14:15 of the first period. Asham received a match penalty on the hit.

    Neal's hearings focus on the hit against Sean Couturier in the third period, as well as the charging penalty he received for a hit on Claude Giroux later in the period. Neal was not penalized on the Couturier hit.

    Nice to see that the NHL is having the time to meet with a couple of players from yesterday game.

    maybe they will both get fines for 2,499 each.

    anyway, I am hoping for a closer game on wednesday. I want Philly to start playing D.

    in other news, all the people who laughed at me when i picked alot of Flyers for my hockey pool are starting to give me the money already.

    "Guys are emotional," he said. "There's a lot of stuff going on out there. There's no reason to explain, why I have to sit here and say why I pushed a glove away. They're doing a lot of things out there, too. You know what? We don't like each other. Was I going to sit there and pick up his glove for him, or what was I supposed to do?

    "Skate away? Well, I didn't that time."


    what a douche bag

    your right so do i, but i want it to be a shutout. The Flyers need to play better on the d if they want to win the cup.

    agreed that the D/goaltending has to be better.

    i'm not worried tho....things can change quickly from one series to the the next.

    lets just get that 4th W and move on.

    I agree with that. if the Flyers win game 4 they can rest some players and also practice their defense coverage.

    I also forgot to ask, I hear JVR is ready to come back. do we play him and if yes what line?

    Twitter has jvr replacing zac. I would expect jvr on the 4th line with limited minutes to start. Gotta knock off the rust. After that....i dunno...the other lines have all been playing well. Not sure i would break them up unless one starts to strugle

    wow 4th line for a 2nd pick overall. but I would agree in him being on the 4th. all the lines are rolling right now.

    the 4th line is my guess.

    flyers reporters have him replacing zac in teh line up.

    game two line combo's from http://thepensblog.bloguinmedia.com/tpb ... tions.html

    Scott Hartnell - Claude Giroux - Jaromir Jagr
    Brayden Schenn - Daniel Briere - Wayne Simmonds
    Jakub Voracek - Matt Read - Eric Wellwood
    Maxime Talbot - Sean Couturier - Zac Rinaldo

    i think he either replaces rinaldo straight up, or maybe he slides into wellwood's spot and wellwood slides into zac's spot. i wouldn't touch claude's or danny's line at this point.

    he's coming back from missing 6 weeks....he's gonna be rusty, team is playing well on offense...no need to shake things up. put him on lower line and see where he is. if he plays well, give more minutes.

    I like Wellwood and his speed but the dude is so easy to get off the puck

    He's get poke checked like crazy without even needing to hit him

    kind of funny that a coach gets more a fine than a player who smashes a guy face in the boards

    agree. much prefer the rhythm of every other night. although after the flyers win wednesday it's going to be about 8 or 9 days before they play again.

    Always fun to watch other teams play after your team has already advanced. 8-)

    I think last year they started accelerating 2nd round games once the series were set, which is hard to do with the reseeding thing.
