As bad as the Pens were in the 2nd and 3rd periods, they still had a chance. Everyone is forgetting that Staal flat out beat Bryzzy but hit the inside of the pipe! If that somehow squeezes in, the Pens probably overcome the horrible offsides call, the horrible penalty that Orpik took, and the horrible defensive effort in the 3rd.
I think the Flyers are gonna be sky high with momentum now. But the Pens might come out with a chip on their shoulder. Just wonder how much the psyche of the Pens is damaged.
Preds/Wings is setting up to be pretty awesome as well. And the Kings win last night. The "Dogs' ruled the night!
