How Satisfying to Watch the Flyers Pass the Puck Back and Forth in the Penguins’ Zone While Up 3-0
Published:
What a way to end Game 2 in Pittsburgh. This was like the cherry on top of the ice cream sundae. It was like putting the star on top of the Christmas tree. It was like wrapping the final present and placing it underneath said tree:
lol
How embarrassing for the Yinzers and the half-dozen fans who stuck around to watch that. They couldn’t hang with the Fly Guys and decided to completely goon it up at the end of the third period. If you can’t beat ’em, fight ’em instead, you know? Kris Letang, Anthony Mantha and assorted jabronies like “Parker Wotherspoon” started taking penalties, which put the Flyers out there with a man advantage for the final 90 seconds. So Risto and Sanheim just passed the puck casually between themselves eight times before getting Owen Tippett involved. Risto even half-ass faked a shot from the point, which was wonderful.
What’s important now is to keep it going. Absolutely cannot get complacent coming home with a 2-0 series lead. The building is gonna have so much JAM inside of it that it’s gonna be bursting at the seams. Keep up the intensity in game 3. I want to see people rip their heart out of their fucking chest:
