Me: how did the Penguins manage to stay in our zone for so long?

*sees Polak and Dillon on the ice*

Oh ok.

 

Fuck you Jones stop being so fucking good

 

Wow, what a sequence by Jones there.

 

Even the Sharks themselves are standing around in awe of Jones

 

God damn Jones stoned Crosby and sheary there. Beast mode.

 

Jones for conn Smythe

 

Jones has me nervous

 

Ye realized that after I posted

 

Jones is insane.

 

His play is taking me back to Hank in 2014. Too bad saves alone mean nothing.

 

Really surprised DeBoer just doesn't use the Q approach from last year's playoffs and just not play the 3rd pairing lol.

 

I might have said it before but if Jones has an amazing game tonight and the Sharks still lose, I think the Conn Smythe talk should be Kessel, Letang, Couture and Jones.

 

Feel like this San Jose crowd is going to lose their mind soon

 

Everyone has been saying this but he refuses to do it because ALL FOUR LINES AND PAIRINGS garbage.

 

That's why quenneville has rings and deboer is deboer.

 

Replace letang with burns and I agree.

 

I would probably add Crosby to that.

 

hey remember when NHL said only one viewing party per round?

where is the lightning fan to get mad

 

Yeah I can see that. It's just Letang is playing like 30 minutes and basically carrying that team meanwhile Burns is still part of a really good too 6.

 

So in this theoretical situation where the Pens win there is only one Penguin that would be considered for the Conn Smythe in your opinion? I'M ROLLING MY EYES SO HARD RIGHT NOW

 

Crosby would probably be like the third or fourth choice from me on his team.

 

Kessel/Jones/Crosby/Couture would be my picks.

 

Who do you put ahead of him besides Kessel? Murray?

 

Kessel because he is the reason HBK line has been so good.

Letang because he carries that defense when it's pretty bad. He is basically doing his best Duncan Keith from last year.

Crosby and Murray in the 3 and 4 but it's hard to argue Murray for this round since he hasn't been really challenged this round and he has let in some awful goals.

 

They talk about how great Crosby has been this series and proceed to show the scuffle him and Thornton had in the beginning but not the slash that he caused.
