GDT: 1, 2, 3, Go Pens Go - Game 3 Penguins @ Philly @ 15:00EST

Ok and....

I would give him taste of playoffs.. regardless win or lose... I love Murray nothing against Murray..I know is capable of winning any series..

Look man.. you are using a crazy panic move for no reason. And I typically don't want to put a spotlight on one member's point of view, because it's not the view of 99.9% others, but when you start to overthink and panic, you lose. It's not a smart decision. Even if Mur lays an egg here, it's not a smart decision.

Gotta trust the team defense and gotta trust he will be a gamer. If it doesn't happen, oh well. It can't always go perfect.

but to play DeSmith, you have to sit Murray. There's just no way to justify doing that right now. I'd love to let Bleuger get a chance in the playoffs too, but I'm sure as shit not sitting any of our centers for him.

Hope to see Guentzel-Sid-Sheary/ZAR.


move Rust on line 3 with Brass and Kessel.

L3 desperately needs a forechecker with some speed.

 

[The Gobfather*]

No troll.. just thought he should get a taste of the playoffs..

That makes no sense though

 

[BHD]

As if it wasn't possible for Couturier to be even more overrated, he has a street named after him.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I will blame @Scandale du Jour watching the game if we don't.

EDIT: I also will blame @Clare2904 for not properly distracting him.

Tonight is soccer night. We won the Cup on a Sunday (a soccer night) last year.

Rule #1 of Troll Club: Don't feed the trolls.

God bless 9pm games. Lets f***ing do this guys

 

[Andy99]

Just listening to Milbury and Jones opine in their biased way on the Pens-Flyers series makes me want to fly into a rage....where’s the Xanax?....

 

[ColePens]

I will be interested the see the tweaks Sully makes to the Flyers going with a passive 1-2-2 and backing everyone up on the PK when the Pens breakout.

One thing Hak doesn't get enough credit for is the PK. They are stacking at the blue line, DARING the Pens to dump, because they know the Pens won't do it. Sid gets pissed when they dump/chase. The only thing there is a dump/chase. That's what I want to see adjusted. It will push the Flyers back and then they can skate in.

As for the regular 1-2-2... we shall see.

U reading my mind..or just all my posts the last two weeks.

Altho get kessel away from brass. Sorry kirk..goes with Malkin

Tonight is soccer night. We won the Cup on a Sunday (a soccer night) lasy year.

Well, as long as we win today, you damn well better have athletically related plans for every Pens playoff game day henceforth.

and that ain't ZAR

 

[SirBrad]

Don't know what it is but I just can't get excited for today's game. Hope they can play well early and change my mindset.

totally. I can be awake at work tomorrow.

Let them have this, the Flyers haven’t had anything to celebrate in a longggg time.

 

[SUBdrewgANS]

I hate NBC.. I cannot watch this game with sound.

It's the playoffs. A little "unease" in your system is beautiful. That's what life is all about!

Never forget.. this is just a game at the end of the day. When this weird "Omg I'm scared" feeling pops into your gut, enjoy it. That's what it is all about.

Oh, the Pens can break the 1-2-2. We know that. But, it caught them off guard on Friday. Lot of guys moving horizontally through the neutral zone, which is a double whammy. No speed to attack. No speed to chase dump ins. Gotta attack with more speed, vertically, and hit a trailing forward/defenseman coming late.

PK, agree 100%. I don't want ANYONE standing at the blueline. Skate to it. Gotta have Horny and Geno both going full speed to get to the puck so the dump in is a legit option.

 

[ColePens]

you can't dump and chase when you don't chase....

Obviously. That is Hornqvist and Sid's responsibility.

 

[BHD]

Sean Couturier Avenue. It doesn't even roll off the tongue. Couts Avenue would have been fine.

Milbury is a cave man but he’s honestly pretty fair, but you’re right on jones, dude is a biased tool.

 

[Shrimper]

What ? Murray in net


I would give DeSmith a shot.

I love Murray but I want to see DeSmith..

Sorry.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Well, as long as we win today, you damn well better have athletically related plans for every Pens playoff game day henceforth.

I play ball hockey on Wednesdays. Soccer on Sundays. Outdoor season starts end of April on Sundays (indoor ends tonight, we play in the championship game). My other outdoor league starts end of may and is on Tuesdays.

3 days out of 7, I have sports. Call Gary and ajust our schedule

I can't shake it off, just can't...
