The usual. Only outshooting teams 3 times in 20+ games is sad.

It's not just that they're being outshot - it's the extent to which they're being outshot. 5 times, they've been outshot by 20 or more. That's absurd. If it was only 2 or 3 shots a game, that wouldn't be such a big deal, but, they're being dominated on the shot clock.

So getting outshot 13-5, go down early with horrendous D Zone coverage, score a power play goal and a goal on the rush to lead 2-1

This is not a recording.

Don't think that's interference but we'll take it. Why is it so difficult to get it to the point and get a shot to the net and someone in front. Don't understand why any teams PP should look dismal. Keep it simple and good things will happen.

It's a penalty that was called constantly after the first lockout, then the refs started to let it go a little bit, and in the past year or so the NHL wants it called again. Basically, if you dump the puck in like Holland did the defenceman can't go out of his way to take you out of the play. He's supposed to just maintain body position but he can't hold you up like that.

You shut your mouth the Leafs aren't a rush team.
 
Nice response by the team after the opening goal. Helps that the Pens only had 4 on the ice too.  Doesn't feel like the Pens have had 13 shots.

Kessel's flying tonight.

I was thinking the same thing. They really split hairs...

They're questionable calls. Years ago that was never a penalty. Both players were close together when Holland touched. Either way we got the goal and some momentum.
