Damn... Marchand always amazing... still almost got that goal while getting the crap hooked out of him.

It's always pissed me off that the Pens stole the Bruins's colors -- at least vary them a little. Just another reason to hate them.

Pittsburgh had black and gold hockey colors before Boston did.
I'm confused on this, when the Pens entered the league in 67' their colors were blue and white. Bruins have been black and gold since they joined the league. Am I wrong or missing something?

Bruins wore Brown & Yellow until the late 60’s I believe.

Swayman seems to have pucks go into his glove and out a lot... he just had another there and there were some earlier in the game...

Sway a much better game overall and aside from a couple defensive lapses by backing in to deep a solid game from the Bruins. Nice to see that change

Please give 1 example of a penalty that should have been called that wasn’t.
To be clear, I was just citing an objective statistic with no particular situation in mind. (Not able to watch live today.)

And in fairness to the Pens, their league lowest PIM% doesn't really stand out too much as they're 9th in Corsi% and 6th in xGF%. However 2nd lowest being the middle-of-the-road Caps (50.2 xGF%, 50.15 Corsi%) and 3rd being a crappy Chicago team (46.24 xGF%, 46.06 Corsi%) does raise some eyebrows. (As well as Carolina being dead last in PIM% for that matter...)

Good win today. The Coyle (83.5 xGF%) and Haula (76.4 xGF%) lines especially did well given their recent struggles.
