    Pens in 5, Pittsburgh just has too much postseason experience and have looked a lot more solid late in the season

    I couldn't find the overtime on TV but Bailey wins it.

    I voted Isles in 7 before the game tonight because I thought they have a the grinding/defensive mindset to upset the Pens.
    Plus they have Barry Trotz.
    Let's see how this one folds out! But it's gonna be a close series imo.
    Points-only keeper league. 12 teams. Keep any 12 players. Dress 12F - 6D - 2G.

    Trotz has one year of postseason success and a losing record against Pittsburgh so I don’t really see how he’s the x-factor, but if Pittsburgh plays like that all series the Islanders are winning.

    Yeah, this was extremely disappointing. And it better not happen again. OT in the playoffs is the best thing since sliced bread... so don't take that away from us!

    I'd imagine the 12 pm puck drop is a nbc thing and not a scheduling conflict for an evening event PH ?

    Has to be. Makes sense that NBC would want Crosby and the Pens as the afternoon weekend game. They've played a lot of those during the last couple of years.

    Wowza, hard to believe the Isles have them on the brink already. Don’t think anyone saw that coming.

    If Tampa and the Pens are both gone in the first round, that’s going to destroy a whole lotta hockey pools

    Didn't believe much in the pens myself (had the isles in 7, I believe) but I agree with you, they were a popular pick.

    Very happy for the Isles and their fans though. Was a rough spring last year, this must feel good. They have a real shot at a deep run here.

    I knew NYI would win but not so easily. I had them in 7 and pretty confidently as I took a couple Islanders in my money pool.

    Can you hear that?

    Nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah....

    Isles look good but, we can't write off a team with Crosby and Malkin on it.

    Barry Trotz could be the first coach to win the Hart and Conn Smythe without stepping foot on the ice

    Any question that this is Lehners team? What kind of $$$ are the Islanders gonna cough up?
