Congrats to the Penguins on winning this game. Fleury came up huge again.
My consolation was that the power play goal came as a result of a penalty that actually should have been called, as opposed to the first three called in OT.

Fleury is God. Incredible game.
Badger Bob and Maurice Gibb with the inspirational duet from heaven for the win.
Paul McCartney & Stevie Wonder = Stunned.

Anyone notice McGuire also called that a four-minuter?

Unbelievable.
I thought the Dallas/San Jose 4OT game couldn't be surpassed.
I was wrong.

55 saves on 58 shots to be the Red Wings and their goalie
Terry Sawchuk = Stunned
Oh, and i have my finals in... 7 hours. Niiice.
hahah free candy on fsn now
holy shit i cant believe it.
FLEURY IS A BEAST. THEYRE ALL BEASTS. FUCKING MALONE WITH THE PUCK IN THE FACE? ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME? Gonchar manning up on the PP?
Stunned. The good kind. I love it.
what.a.game.
Bigger goal. Talbot 2000? Or Syko calling it?
I'd have sex with fleury, and let hal gill watch.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
Exactly.
"The Shift" - "Yard Sale"

@nicholas...
talbot for sure.
Tears of joy. Tears of relief.
Even if Gene Krantz wasn't put in tonight for the game...his quote rings true...
"With all due respect, sir, I believe this is gonna be our finest hour."
PENS WIN.
BOOSH!

HOLY FUCKING SHIT
Gonchar with the Kirk Gibson.
Mellon needs to register seismic activity on Wednesday.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I stood for the entirety of Overtime. I did not eat or drink anything. I almost vomited 66 times.
Jyeah.
Even that random dude was smoochin Mario's wife. Too bad that comes with the penalty of DEATH.
i dont think i will be able to talk for a week
my throat hurts so much and i love it
Oh my God how could I forget Gonch?
Sarge is the best nickname ever. He's just like the tough ass, no nonsense sergeant who won't quit in every World War II movie ever made.
John Wayne = Stunned
Ryan Malone > Anton Volchenkov.
My life is complete. :)
I'm heading to the Uniontown Eat'n Park for coffee and celebration.
I only wish that the entire Penguins team could be at my house when I get home so I could mob them.
How fucking euphoric am I?
Are you ready for this?
Even John Fedko didn't seem like such a douchebag on WPXI giving the lead-in recap.
I'd like to add:
t0e8t093856gfijdlkjglkdjlkashgdkdsajlg
Journey ("Don't Stop Believin") or Barack Obama (HOPE/YES WE CAN) should get the call for Game 6
P.s. I'm not taking my Staal shirt off (except to shower) before Wednesday's game.

I LOVE YOU GUYS!!!
THANK YOU FOR THE ASIAN KID!!!!
With all that said, I was stuck at work listening to Lange and 29-er and I missed all of regulation. I was driving home during Talbot's goal and I swear I almost crashed. I was able to watch all of OT. I have the entire game recorded on my DVR, and it WILL be watched before game 6.
I love this team.
PS-Max Talbot is my man crush. I knew we were gonna win as soon as he scored. When we were in Edmonton earlier in the year, I was watching the game with a friend of mine, and the Pens were down 2-0. Max scored to make it 2-1, and as soon as he scored, I looked at my friend and said, "Talbot scored, we're gonna win the game." Sure enough, 4-2 victory for the Pens. I have said it before, and I will say it again: The Pens do not lose when Talbot scores a goal.
Hacksaw has gone into cardiac arrest.
are you kidding me, i actually get to go to game 6. wooooohoooo
And of course on my 12:57 post I meant "to BEAT the Red Wings and their goalie"
Oh, Lilja? Don't think I didn't see you hit Malone in the injured part of his face after the goal. Classless fuck. Does Gary have to come after you again on Wednesday? I think so.
No Journey...no "Don't Stop Belivin'"
It's about losers from Detroit trying to overcome living in the crappiest city in the country.
@raybin - I've been meaning to tell you since I started reading cblog that your Robert Johnson icon is pretty amazing.
Penguins have a hellhound on their trail, which has now been stunned.
@raybin
hillarious...

I LOVE that little Asian kid.....you know...not in a Charlie way of course.
SYKORA=CALLED IT.
FLEURY=BRICK WALL
TALBOT=MARTYR
GONCHAR=VETERAAAAAAAAN.
AND MALKIN HAD THE WINNING ASSIST--HE'S COMING BACK!
I love our city.
@debrisslide - Supernatural fan?
Han Solo- "Never tell me the odds, kid!!!"
That's perfect. I vote for Solo getting the call for game 6.

Holy crap, did you just apply a Robert Johnson title to the Pens?
I am not worthy. Well played.

Get busy livin or get busy dyin..
This team fucking lives. I have a meeting at 8 AM that lasts until 3. I'm going to probably be the most unproductive person at work, and I could almost care.
This team, this blog, you people.. all amazing.. This doesn't stop until we hoist the cup in Detroit.
The last charge of Sid and his Immortals continues on Wednesday.
Holy fucking cow.
Wings fans thought they had this in the bag at the end of the third period, then Talbot said, "Whoa, not so fast."
Then Fleury said, "Take that biotch!" for almost 50 minutes of OT before Sykora said, "GAME 6! WOOOOO!"
Un-fucking-real

Holy fucking shit I cannot believe this game!!!
Malone took one to the face and came back out to play.
Gonch probably could have sat out if he wanted to but realized we couldn't play too much longer and came out anyways.
Fleury is a flipping beast! Those saves were amazing and my heart will never be the same again because there were a few times it jumped across the room at what was happening.
I am mocking all my friends who went to bed thinking we were going to lose. They suck. Pens rule.
The Igloo is crazy right now. I could barely hear my friend when he called but it was amazingggg.
LOVE THE PENS WITH EVERYTHING I HAVE
wtf i just realized there was a new post.
and speaking of unproductive, I have to be up at 430 to be at work by 6. Wanna guess what will be done tomorrow? Pensblog recap, c-blog entries, and maybe if I feel like it....maybe, possibly some work.
Me = still stunned
"We will not go quietly into the night!" We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on!"
Each and every one of you pricks wrote them off after Rafalski's goal, didn't you? DIDN'T YOU???

Well then, you're a better fan than I.
I'm still bouncing.
The Wings were THIRTY SECONDS from the Cup
And now they have to come to the Mellon in a game they better treat as Game 7. Because they don't want any part of an actual Game 7, I can tell you.
Wow.
Malone. They should put his picture on the "Sacrifice" shirt.
The USS Hal Gill? His best game as a Penguin. Maybe? I think so.
Oh and to our special MVP of the game...
Nicolas Kronwall.
Couldn't have done it without you, big guy.
Postgame thoughts dudes...
1. YESSSSSSSSS!
2. Actual conversation between myself and C-blogger Gaylord Focker at about 7:45 this evening...
FOCKER: What do you think?
STOOSH: I think we can win. I think we need to come out like we did in game three. How about you?
FOCKER: I think they'll win, and you know what could break this series wide open? A long overtime win by the Pens.
Focker = Nostradamus
3. I remember all the talk back in 2004-05 (when MAF was in Wilkes-Barre during the lockout) and 2005-06 about how Fleury was a bust and the Pens needed to consider another alternative in net. I'd really love to know where some of the people who said that are thinking right about now, and how many of them would gladly sew their lips to Fleury's ass.
4. King Shero = Genius
5. Fleury - absolute beast tonight. THIS is why we drafted him. Kid was out of his mind tonight.
6. Dear hockey-bashing media,
Fuck you all. I'm laughing my ass off right now because you have no fucking clue what you're missing.
7. Sykora when asked about the locker room food between intermissions, "We had pizza." When asked what kind, he flashes the shit-eating grin and goes, "Dominos!"
what kinda of pizza????
SYKO - "DOMINOS"
hahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!
suck it, Ilitch!
the post game presser is hilarious
Sykora is like, "I ate large pizza, then score huge goal."
talk about heartblog....
Bugsy and Gonch showed some seriousness Heart tonight
I mean Bugsy took a slapshot to the face and didn't miss a beat
...Hossa Hossa Hossa!...Syko!... and Even Geno (Gino) got better as the game wore on. I'm going crazy!
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
SYKO CALLED A GOAL! HE EVEN TRIED TO EFFFF IT UP WITH THE HOOKING CALL! SYKO'S GOAL WAS SO SWEET EVEN HASEK WAS CLAPPING!

I can't sleep and I have to work from open until close at Kennywood tomorrow. I am going to feel like I just completed a 3 OT hockey game by the end of the night tomorrow.
I think we need to police the ranks at the next home game. If anybody brings a freaking octopus into our barn, I think swim lessons in da mon are in order!
DO IT!

post edit is up.....
That's hope, bitches. I love thinking about how that goal made those cocky A2Y jerks feel.
In 2008, Petr Sykora escaped from “The Joe”. All they found of him was a bloody set of gauze bandage wraps, a tab of smelling salt, and a composite Easton, damn near worn down to the nub. I used to think it would take six hundred minutes to slap home the winner. Old Syko did it in less than one-twenty. Oh, Syko, loved netting game winners - I guess it appealed to his meticulous nature. A wrister here, sick one-timer there. Playoff hockey is the study of pressure and time. That's all it takes really, pressure, and time. That, and a big god-damned set of brass balls. Like I said, in overtime of the Stanley Cup Playoffs a man will do anything to keep his mind occupied. It turns out Syko's favorite hobby was callin’ his shot from the bench. I guess after Sarge went into the boards, he decided he had been here just about long enough. Sykora did like he was told, skated in from the point on the Power Play. The Wing’s D simply didn't notice, neither did I... I mean, seriously, how often do you really believe a guy when he says he’s going to score the game winner? Syko skated to freedom through five-hundred yards of shit smelling Detroit foulnessI can't even imagine, or maybe I just don't want too. Five-Hundred yards... that's the length of five football fields, just shy of half a mile.
Top 5 game in Penguins history?
oops i crapped my pants
incredible. i guess we know who's starting game 6
Fleury, that was a Patrick Roy esque performance.
You gotta listen to Lange's goal call again on the Talbot goal.

I love how NBC and ESPN keep talking about how Detroit is still going to lock this series up.
Keep it up. I said it the other day and I'll say it again.
This Stanley Cup feels like the 79 World Series.
Pirates no chance going into the series. Then down 3-1.
Besides if it wasn't for the weak backhand goal on Saturday we would be up 3-2 playing for the title on Wed. I guess the boys will just have to win it in 7.
GO PENS!!!
Game 7 would be on my birthday,
Omenblog
Did anyone happen to go to ESPN.com?
They have this jobber E.J. Hradek offering "instant analysis"
Here's an example of his work:
Just wondering … why did Detroit star Henrik Zetterberg get an interference penalty at the 17:25 mark of the first overtime? I didn't see any foul on that play. What a time for a blown call. Luckily, the game wasn't decided as a result of that penalty. Oh, by the way, the goalie interference penalty on Dan Cleary in the early moments of the second overtime wasn't much better!
Um, maybe Zetterberg was called because he RAN FLEURY OVER LIKE AN EIGHTEEN WHEELER.
I'm willing to grant that the Cleary call can be argued. I thought it was right, but it can be debated. But anyone who doesn't think Zetterberg didn't interfere with Fleury then is either a fool, a douchebag or E.J. Hradek. Not sure which is the worst
That, and a big god-damned set of brass balls.
HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!
@flyer hater
Game 6 is on mine.
But don't worry....we're clutch.
Savran: "Where did it hit you"?
Malone: "In the beak."
This game reminded me of the Winter Classic.
Little chance, bad ice, away ice, overtime, beautiful goal, miracle.
LGP.
@ raybin
AND if you watch the replay Zetterdeutsch tried blading Fleury as he was getting up!
My birthday isn't until the 9th, but my party is going to be on the day of game 7. I hope my family realizes I won't be giving a shit about blowing out candles and unwrapping gift cards. There will undoubtedly be celebration, though.
I'm naming my first born son...

I love c-bloggers. Like really. I love the Pens. I am so hungry, but I can't stop reading comments. I have barely processed this win.
When they showed the bench before the last OT, they were loose and smackin each other around (except Gary...all business).
This has to get the confindence up.
Well, unfortunately I have to go to bed.

NHL Network is replaying the game starting at 3am.
If you watched the game in real time, then watch the replay you are going to die.
DO NOT EVEN ATTEMPT THAT SHIT!
(it's also being replayed tomorrow afternoon... watch it again then and save yourself!)
Malkin ain't so tired anymore, is he?
If anyone has NHL Network, please do yourselves a favor and tune for the sheer brilliance that is Bob Errey. He's reverts from time to time into full "Bob Errey, Color Commentator for the Pens" mode and he clearly doesn't give a shit. Dude is practically catatonic right now. Awesome television.

good f'n gary in heaven!
just got back from a bar in Manhattan totally overrun by Pens fans screaming their heads off ...
I'm speechless ... but one word comes to mind ...
heart
that's what the Pens displayed out there tonight ... heart ...
written off by the media, by some fans like me who thought Detoilet was too tough to overcome at home ... they came out and played like that?! this team has f'n HEART
it's fitting that a guy like Talbot tied it up - ALL HEART. He's a mucker and grinder who gets jacked every game, battles it out along the boards, and NEVER GIVES UP.
it's fitting that a guy like Syko scores the winning goal.
that was all about heart. I'm stunned, speechless, a little ashamed that I lost hope, but happy that this team showed me I was wrong.
That was a thing of beauty, and something we'll always remember, something we'll tell our grandchildren.
GO PENS!
sh0ez...
I can't take credit for Yard Sale...that was Scuds I believe that said it in the locker room to a reporter after the game...I think maybe Stoosh mentioned it during all that hoopla after the Game 3 win...
19:25™ - I'll take it....
NICE WORK!!!!....I HOPE to GARY there is a pic with the Maxs' goal going in & the Wings fans in the background...either gaging, crying, screaming, jaw dropping or all of the above....

@dubs
we were all 35 seconds away from total loss of hope...
Max & his boys just didn't want to disappoint us !!!!!!!!!!!!`
yeah...that 8th round mother fuckin' pick - Max Talbot
@ doc: Either way, you brought up Yard Sale. No one else may have brought it to our attention.
So I'm stuck at work through all of the first overtime -- though when I see it's 3-2 on the Internets late in the third, I tune in Mike Lange to hear him talking about Detroit winning the Cup -- only Talbot seems to have scored somehow. Imagine that.
So I get home in time for the end of OT#2, and that almost knocks me out with the saves MAF is making. I don't know how you all survived 100+ minutes of that shit.
Then I get to soak in the glorious OT#3, thinking that if they don't score on a 4-minute PP then . . . well, no need for that "if" it turns out, because Sykora buries it. What a goal scorer's goal. Labeled for the corner, and labeled in big bold capital letters.
Nice job everyone. And I will be at Game 6.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
Judging by a few comments here...
and something sent of AIM by a fellow cblogger...
This may turn into foodblog in a heartbeat.
I'm so drained and hungry after that, that I could eat my couch.
The hockey world = fucking stunned.
@ bng: i agree.
So I pulled out the big guns for this game. My Malkin/Crosby young guns shirt signed by Laraque, Talbot and Hall. All of those players who dressed got points. I know what I'm wearing from now on.
I'm really optimistic right now.
And it's only partly because I'm listening to Radiohead's "Optimistic" right now.
"If you try the best you can
If you try the best you can
The best you can is good enough"
doc turk -
35 secs ... unreal. I was very close to burying my face in my hands.
My LeGame shirt has been off and on this playoffs. I wore it in confidence knowing he's been in such pain. Did it.

@sh0ez said:

so it wasn't just me that felt it was the Pens & us against the world ????
have to go check out parade douche...he was about 10 hours from one helluva party...
mmmm...too bad, Ironside.
Said this in the game thread, but it bears mentioning again. There is NOTHING better when your team is playing on the road and hearing the opposing crowd let out that shriek that is one-third despair, one-third disbelief and one-third "oh fuck, we just lost!"
I just can't say enough about this Pens team. From Fleury to Talbot to Sykora (who's also clearly hurt), to Gonchar pulling a Kirk Gibson (excellent reference, whoever mentioned that before), to Malone showing a toughness that defies description.
I just can't say enough about this team.
Mellon Arena may never be as crazy as it will be on Wednesday night.
Absolute game for the ages.
@party of ruutu
Holy shit.
Best picture ever.
