[hide] Jeff Zatkoff will start in goal for the Penguins in Game 1. Tristan Jarry who didn’t even skate this morning, will be the backup.
Leading up to the game, all signs pointed to Fleury starting.
The goaltending matchup for Game 1 is an extremely lopsided one with Henrik Lundqvist at the other end.
Zatkoff who has appeared in just one game since Feb 20, has an .895 save percentage over his last five games. On the season Zatkoff is 4-7-1 with a 2.79 GAA, .917 save percentage.

Henrik Lundqvist
Look how high Staal’s stick was before his stabbed his own goalie in the eye.
I can’t believe Pens won a playoff game without Fleury. Unimaginable. I wouldn’t take Zak out untl the Pens lose. Dude’s seeing the puck.
don’t forget the pens won with vokoun but the local media swept that guy completely under the rug. how dare somebody outplay their patron saint!
Pens didnt play too great by their recent standards, hope they get it going for game.2
Kobe !!!!!
In Honor of Beerman…. “Malkin to LA”….

Hawks vs blues
i really enjoy watching the pens without st.blurry in goal.
Sestito played well.
crosby played well
Yeah. How weird was that?! In the playoffs!? Who IS that guy?? Still though. That Sestito. Huge addition.
Staal, play of the game!
15-2 since the Russian left for vacation.
Grow up idiot. Enjoy wins instead of being a dick.
1 game down 15 wins to go
Hatric Hornqvist ices it… They had such a shitty start but this is clearly a team that really pours it on as the game continues. They are gonna be so hard to beat when Malkin and Rust return. Tip of the hat to Zatkoff, it hasn’t always looked pretty and he got a lot of help but he came up big when they needed him
Who comes out when Malin and Rust returns? What a great problem to have. Gotta get and stay healthy
Sundqvist comes out for Malkin, Rust would replace a dman.
Nice 2nd and 3rd periods. Shitty 1st and they still get 5.
Getting tighter again… A Malkin PP point or two during the first 4 would look pretty big right now
Chubby with an assist… Can you imagine how bad this would be if Malkin was playing
Pens missing malkin and his 9.5m
Kessell!!!
Lol… Finally get penetration on the PP, good thing the team came through on the crap PP so it could click when it didn’t really matter as much 😉
Kessel with the assist for those keeping score at home
Kuhnhackl has become one of my favorite players. I love his game.
Coonhackl,sheery and rust been impressive this season and people said pens have nothing from the farm team
Oh ya because you’ve been preaching about all the amazing talent in he A right? Lol… Besides there was praise for Rust and Sheary before they showed up… People were liking Wilson. Kuhnhackl seemed to have people lose interest in but he’s done a great job making it work at the NHL level
Is kessel healthy searched tonight?
Do you watch the game? Or do you just read the stat line? Kessell has been all over the place tonight.
You really are fucking clueless… Just wait till the next PP, he will be the only guy noticeable on the ice
Healthy searched!
Once again wings play the game and Tampax wins the game
What? They both played… Tampa won… That’s how these things work asshole, sorry, samthespam
Tip of the hat to Sid, showing up early this year. Anyone else loving Sheary just that much more so far?
Agree
The C must come off from crosby’s Jersey.
#typicalstan
This is why everyone thinks you’re a stupidcunt samthespam
Zatkoff looking great… I think the myriad of perimeter shots served to warm him up as opposed to expose a weakness. He’s battling so far!
That was good penalty by Daley nice play
Pens missing rust. He is the new Dupuis
Hahahahahaha what a stupidcunt… While I absolutely agree we need rust back in the lineup but to say we need him back while disagreeing we need Malkin back is hilarious. 1 shot on 4 PPs… Ya we could use Geno back tardo
Sam, your boys are really quiet tonight. They must be busy scuffing hotdogs.
Let’s hope he doesn’t choke
Speaking of hot dogs I also think kessel had hot dogs for lunch today. He can’t skate today. Rather have sestito in line up then chubby right now
Chubby, the only guy with a shot in 4 PPs… Basically if you ran the team we would have no PP at all lol
I hate Lovejoy.
I can’t believe he has been in the league for so long there I players you question who their father or who they blew in order to be there. . TK is another Clown I ask myself Why is he still around
They can’t all spank a ball into an empty net like
You samthespam
I hate kreider
Scrub versus Scrub!!
How many accounts you created stan for the playoffs brackets
what bonehead coaching by the rangers. lundqvist gets poked in the eye with 48 seconds left in the period. put in the backup for the last 48 seconds and see if lundqvist shakes it off for the 2nd. thanks for the freebee!!! F you Rangers!
I like when you call other people dumb. It’s like Danny devito calling someone short.
Ha! I just jinxed hank after his eye injury told my bro imagine pens score in next 40 seconds
Is your brother the one that taped you doing those amazing ball hockey tricks?
Look timid and all out of whack. Open it up, play with speed, let it rip. If you leave zatkoff out to dry, fuck it, you gotta play your game, not the Rangers game.
Yikes… Familiar bad habits still need ironing out
Someone needs to draw them a map to the net
Without malkin
Yup, and we have been trash offensively… Could use a big time guy like Geno right now
Could really use him on the PP… He would have helped settle that first one for sure! Fingers crossed they can at least set up here without him
0-2 early on the PP with what… No shots. Wonder what a Malkin would have done for us
Make more lazy passes that creates turnovers
You’re an incredible moron… Try shoot the puck. He did lead the team in PP goals in only 57 games asshole
Hey yoda… Sestito didn’t dress… So no he isn’t a dumb fuck lmao. You are tho, one of the biggest to ever steal oxygen
Were hit!!
Yoda must be happy with this news now it’s like him losing his virginity again
First time was to you I bet
we fucked! Hank always plays us well.
Yoda just blew his load
LOL
Fack
