I suppose. Not going back all the pages to see if that's true or not beyond just this conversation.

You should just expect more, you come off as more of apologists for him than anything else. Bob is what, 25? Over 10 games started in the postseason, he should be better regardless.

Bob has nothing to do with that, those guys aren't even shooting the puck.


Crosby and Malkin both have 12 shots on goal, tied for 24th among NHL players thus far through the playoffs.

Exactly, IF he was playing well it could already be over.

This series is literally the exact same shite as the Islanders series last year, 2-2, Fleury frick ups, and the Pens won it in 6 clinching on the road because as I said 2 games ago, Pens love playing on the road.

If you don't win Game 5, the Pens are closing it out in Columbus.

I was pointing out your hypocrisy/delusion that Fluery has been better than Bob and it's not even close.

But that's whats to be expected from you.

Uhm, bruh, that is fricking awful.

Those guys should have a couple of goals each and about 20 shots each. Especially with all the PP's the Pens have had in some of the games.

Huh? We should have swept you in CBJ, I told you we'd win both and we were 20 seconds from doing so.

The Pens on the road goes back to the Cup year, they're much better on the road for whatever reason.

I really don't want to get involved in this little but this right here

is wrong. Why? Because Vokoun isn't coming of the bench this year. Do you honestly believe you win the series against the Islanders if Fleury doesn't get benched?

Just fwiw:

Malkin averaged 3.1 Shots per Game during the regular season. Averaging 3.0 in the playoffs.

Crosby averaged 3.2375 Shots per Game in the regular season, and 3.0 in the playoffs.

Not that this means Bob is playing well, just that unlike you asserted Crosby and Malkin are putting shots on net at a similar level to their regular season totals.

Not the same Fleury either.

Fleury got pulled last year after allowing 3 goals to the Isles, he allowed 2 in CBJ in game 3 in the first 5 minutes, awful goals at that, and skated to the bench during a TO and was rock solid from then on. He would have been pulled against the Isles.

It's the exact same, Pens win game 1, Isles win game 2, Pens win game 3, Isles win game 4. Pens win 5, 6 series over.

They should be putting double the shots on goal in the postseason, this isn't the regular season.

Crosby's post season career Shots on Goal per game is 3.29.

Malkin's career post season Shots on Goal per game is 4.008.

Malkin is underperforming in the SOG, but Crosby is about where he has been for his career.

Pretty interesting stats.

Because of the situation, not the level of support and noise level.

The teams both admitted that the crowd was a large factor in Game 4.

NWA is gonna be unbelievable in game 6.

Exactly, and Malkin has looked better than Crosby, even though he's underperforming more statistically.

And really, those stats don't say much considering they are including much tougher opponents in the later rounds Conf finals/Cup finals compared to a first round matchup.

The fact that this series isn't 3-1 CBJ when Malkin/Cros have no goals, is pretty hard to believe.

Crowds have little factor to be honest, I thought the crowd was better in Game 3, and CBJ built an early lead and the Pens still won. It really just doesn't matter much.

And you're underestimating Washington in 2009, that place was rocking and that rivalry was in full swing between Ovi-Crosby, I'd say it was just as loud and hostile as NWA in either game.
