GDT: PITTSBURGH PENGUINS vs MONTREAL CANADIENS - SERIES THREAD

[rainman67ko]

Dupuis has elevated his game this year since riding the bench much of last years post season. No quit in his game.

Hmmm 29.7 seconds 2-1 can it be done.

A couple things I noticed throughout the game:
1. Habs transition game is an absolute mess without Markov. So many neutral and defensive zone turnovers, many brutal at that. They have to start getting the puck out of the zone on the first opportunity or they're going to get buried.
2. The primary reliance on 9 forwards is having an effect on their performance - guys like Pleks, Cammy, Gomez, and Gionta have to be burning out a little bit. AK46's floating continues so he's still all right.
3. The loss of Gill, should he miss Game Six, could be a catastophe on the back end. They're already down Markov & Spacek, the two main PP guys, so to lose half of the PK/shutdown tandem would be devastating.
4. I still believe that this series is going to go 7 games.

Bravo to Fleury for a virtuoso performance in goal tonight. He definitely earned the first star of the game.
