Longhorns1991

Alright, considering that the Pens are goin home for game 5 and the fans will be loud. Here is how we should start off.

1) Put Laraque out on Hatchers first shift, piss Hatcher off and knock Hatcher's teeth in. Literaly Hatcher is a larger part of the Flyers then Laraque is to Penguins, so the more we miss him off the more the Flyers lose out.

2) Go back to the normal lines. Don't throw Crosby on the fourth and first line, he has nothing in the tank after all the ice time.

3)When the puck comes out of Phili's zone into neutral ice and Pens D have posession, don't whip it back in...but flick it in high so the offence can get onside and reset. *Whipping it back it caused the empty net goal in game 4*

4) Shoot the puck!!!! Don't drive wide, stop, and blindly throw it through 4 players to get some miracle pass. Too many turnovers.

I'm new here, so give me some feedback on this subject.

Dont change too much if anything. The Pens had some bad breaks in game 4 and Philly came out flying. I dont expect the Pens to play as bad and if they just keep the same gameplan and dont take 3 bad penalties we should be in Motown by next week.

Yeah, but just stay out of the box. The game turned on the three consecutive calls on the pens. Before that happened, the pens were outplaying the Flyers, and outshooting them something like 11-4. Three Penalties later and the period ends and 17-13 flyers. For the most part, all three calls were pretty weak.

therrien can choose the line match ups in the igloo, so he can pick apart the PHI defence just by deciding who is on the ice.

there is no need to smack anyone's teeth in, even the head goon of PHI (altho hartnell is always worth a good lamping) and La Rocky, has size enuff to allow a good few scoring opportunities by springing a puck out from behind the net, so don't waste him by making him an assassin.

basically i fail to see a bad side to the loss in PHI (aside from it not being a win of course).... this year PHI played tough at home and in this last game, their entire season's work was on the line. i am more than pleased to see a split in the wins from that road trip.

not to express irrational or over confidence, but when did PIT last lose at home?

nuff said. just keep on keeping on penguini and just hope the officials aren't a band of orange wearing retards!

Welcome to the boards, its always great to see new Penguins fans (I remember being the only one at the original HF).

I dont think they should change anything, as others have said I think it was just a bad game. One thing I want to see though is big George making his presence known. I know he has been playing well, but lets not lie to ourselves...he is what he is, kick someones arse George!

Well there you have it, we're going to call it Longhorns rule #4. SHOOT THE PUCK. Look what happened, three, yes three goals on shots that had little original chance of going in.
