I say Rangers easily win in 5, Penguins are not much of a threat besides the first line. They don't have as good a depth and not as physical, and their defense and goaltending is inferior. But (and this is a big "but") we do have idiot coach.

Penguins defense is inferior to the Rangers? I almost spit out my lunch when I read that. The Ranger's defense is paper thin back there. Penguins in 5...

Ranger depth > Penguins depth?

wow.

NO 2nd line Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Rangers in six, if the refs don't buy into Cindy's whining and diving and general petulance. If they do, it's anyone's series.

O.K' Now back to your Junior Study Hall. JUNIOR

You might win, IF it isn't Fagr's time of the Month

Gill, Scuderi, Letang, Gonchar, Orpik, Whitney and I supposed to be scared of this defense?

"Ranger depth > Penguins depth?"

yep, something you have hard time comprehending?

Penguins Speed > Rangers Speed

Who do you want in a seven game series... a bunch of guys past their prime (Including one who's already talking to the Russian Super League), or the new stars of the league?

Pens in 6... winning the series at MSG to send the Rags packing.

What do you mean Pens dont have depth, we have 4 solid lines.
As far as defensemen go there one hell of a squad, no one gives them credit.

bob = nutsack
The Pens have arguably the two best lines in the NHL, a solid third line, and a bruising fourth line, get over yourself.

It's must be hard to judge talent when you watch a team play that terrible trap system every night.

i dont think bob watches to many pens games.

"or the new stars of the league?"

yes, I want Dubinsky, Dawes, Callahan, Marc Staal, Girardi, Tyutin, etc.

yes, I want Dubinsky, Dawes, Callahan, Marc Staal, Girardi, Tyutin, etc.

Over Sid, Geno, Jordan Staal, Krys Letang, Tyler Kennedy,Ryan Whitney & Mark Andre Fleury ??????

OTAY BUCKWHEAT

Something tells me you missed the SHORTBUS today


Oh Yeah That Nothing 2nd linre Bob is Malone-Malkin-Sykora
YEP no 2nd line scoring there

I never said there is no 2nd line scoring. Sykora doesn't scare me one bit, we had that bum for a while as well as Hall and Taffe and Dupuis.

Why would I want Tyler Kennedy or Jordan Staal or Fleury?

Sykora is not a bum. I would take Fleury and Jordan Staal does play an important role on the team he is very offensive defensive

"Gill, Scuderi, Letang, Gonchar, Orpik, Whitney and I supposed to be scared of this defense?"

Uh, you're not playing?

What summarizes Sykora is when he was bragging one game that he threw 2 or 3 hits and his teammates said that that must be more than he threw the entire season. They were maybe joking, but every joke has some truth in it. Jordan Staal is nowhere near as good as his older brothers, he is not very physical for a big guy.


If Renney idiot puts Prucha in the lineup insted of Hollweg the Rangers will have 4 lines that can score.

me think teh rangers will whin in 3 games. new york is allways the best at it all. we are the capitil of the world.

So you'd rather have; Dubinsky, Dawes, Callahan, M. Staal, Girardi, and Tyutin over Crosby, Malkin, J.Staal, LeGame, Whitney, and Kennedy? Stop sniffing glue man...

Stop including Kennedy, nobody wants him. And I take Girardi over anybody on the Penguins, yes he is that good.

Dear Bob,

All i ask is that you watch the penguins play tonight, re-evaluate your thought and get back to me. Girardi is alright, but to be honest him and Adam Hall are about the same player...PS Adam hall is only in the Lineup due to an Injured Gary Roberts, he usually doesnt play. Im sure you will see the scrapiness of Tyler Kennedy Tonight. As of the last time i saw Dawes play (Debs v Rags) he was the best player on the list of young guys you named. Jordan Staal is overall a better player than Marc, no question. Dubinsky, Jagr, and Avery got owned by Rutuu in the Past. Jagr also has historically gotten shut down by Hal Gill(we will see how that plays out). As far as offense goes i have to give the edge to Pittsburgh. I see a draw on defense(Don't underestimate the penguins mobility). Goaltending, Lundquist is the better of the two, he is proven, i like him alot. Coaching, once again i have to give the edge to the NYR(therien is switching up his 2nd and 3rd line defensive pairings, i dont think its a good idea). PP - Pens, PK - Pens.

I think this series will go 5 games with the Penguins winning it at home. with three games decided by one goal.

Total Goals in series Pit - 17 NYR - 10

Girardi and Adam Hall are about the same player? Oh my, I am still laughing at this.

That's ok bob, the whole world laughs at you.

bob.

he is dumber than you!!

congrats!

Well looks like the experts agree with me overall. I know one is on offense the other on defense but same caliber of player. What are your opinions on everything else?

http://sports.yahoo.com/nhl/playoffs/nyrpit;_ylt=AvjHxmvj66n7FD897bKAMKp7vLYF

the Penguins agility is the CEO of the United Global Agility Corporation. Pens in 4

what the fucx are you talking about?

the Penguins quick and fast had a baby and named him Speedy ... Pens in 4

Milano,

yeah, Dan Girardi scored 10 goals this season from the blueline and played solid defense all year, averaging about 20 minutes a game.

Adam Hall scored 2 goals this season as a forward and would have been scratched if Gary Roberts had played.

Other than that, yeah, ummmm, same caliber player, sure

the Penguins' strong apologizes for making the Rangers' strong look like cottage cheese ... Dooby dooby doooo ... Beware the Penguins .... Pens in 4

Penguins better PK? wow that is some expert.

Also instead of comparing defense and offense he compares forwards and defensemen.

I hope Avery shoves his stick up Crosby's Vag.

Rangers in 6

http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?fid=11444

there, some more, the experts agree

Read over the stats on the TSN page and listen to the commentators. Also watch the Video on Yahoo on the previous link


Thats because Hall played half the games Girardi did and the Rangers as an organization are not as deep as the penguins. So he naturally would have to take more resposibilty because of a lack of other skilled players.

Check it out, Hall even gets more PK time than Girardi does...

When all "experts" say Penguins will win, that should fire up Ranger players and cool off Penguins.

the Ranger's agility owes the Penguins' agility 20 bucks ... Pens in a SweeeeeeeeP!

You guys are delusional!

Crosby's luscious lips alone could beat the Rangers.

fergir! fergie! fergie! OH NO YOU JUST DIDN'T!

Malkin should play goal with his wide open mouth. No pucks would get by him! HEYO.

Pens will sweep to the cup.

Wow. I never realized how annoying Penguins fans are. TJ, now would be a good time to modify your buzzing bob routine to these know nothing fans.

Rangers in 7!!

Were annoying because are team is just that good. And if you want annoying look up Sean Avery.

Penguins > Rangers.

Rangers fans are in for one whiney rude awakening. Pens in 4.

well said "bob knows nothing"

Ranger fans are on a false high because they beat the scrap ass Devils. Wow, big deal. Warm up is over, welcome to the real playoffs. Penguins won't make the mistakes the Devils did.

Penguins in 4, then you will be crying about the refs, I mean you already are and the series hasn't even started. Very sad!!!!

pensin4

i really hope u think the sens r equivalent to the rangers

I can't believe we are having multiple posts comparing Adam Hall and Dan Girardi.

we've had lots of dumb discussions on this blog, but this one is the topper.

Okay, Adam hall lays out dan girardi....end

Sean Avery is annoying, but EXTREMELY effective. It's not easy to rattle Brodeur, and all you Pens fans know that, even if you refuse to give Avery credit.

NEXT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

BUT .... BUT .... BUT... Sidney DOVE, Yeah right he dove when he had a POTENTIAL 2 on none


COMMENCE LOSERS WHINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
