Pens @ Flyers - Game 6 - Doomsday


There's not much I have to say about tomorrows game in Philly. To me, its doomsday, hence the picture. Why? Well because if the Flyers tie it up I don't have the confidence in the Pens confidence. Sure they'll be back home but they just were with a chance to wrap it up and didn't. Could we blame Bylsma for the Sykora-Satan swap? Maybe, but I don't think that had much to do with the loss. I said below that the Pens didn't play with a sense of urgency (the key to them winning the Cup) and render game 5 a must win. When you have a chance to win a series up 3-1 at home you do it, bottom line. You need to play every game as if each game means you're facing elimination.

That said, my keys to the Pens winning tomorrow are these (which are the adjustments from last nights loss):

  • Offensively
  • E-F-F-O-R-T
  • Attack the Net
  • Crisper Passing
  • Capitilize on the Power Play
  • Defensively
  • Play Physical
  • Get Lose Pucks
  • Close the Gaps In the Crease
  • Win Scrubs Along the Boards


Finally, I'll be in Albany, NY over the next few days. PensBeard will be updated no doubt. More than likely no photoshops though. But I'll be damned if I don't get a recap in should we win tomorrow.

Let it Burn!
