GDT: 64|njd's rage against the machine/pens|tue, feb 27 PPG (7:00pm) sn, tvas, attsn-pt, msg+

It can also go to the closest player from the team that gets the goal in some cases...

Own goal - Wikipedia

So in this example most likely the player that lost the draw I guess. Would be fun if Sid got credit for one that way, just to see the "undeserved secondary assist" crews heads explode about him getting a goal without touching the puck

Penguins Power play opportunities = 2.

Over/under?

I'll go with 4 PP chances.

the only thing worse than a 4th line with Rowney at Center is a 4th line with Rowney on the wing

 

[Tom Hanks]

Please don’t overreact if Brassard doesn’t have a good first game.

Lots of praise if he does though.

At least he brings some excitement to a Devils game.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Hey @Empoleon8771, peep Rugged Rowney in the line-up.

Wish we had Cullen now?

 

[Jaded-Fan]

After Visa issues and just getting in late last night and a few shifts of practice with his new team I would expect Brassard to dominate tonight and will expect nothing less.

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

The run for the 3peat starts tonight

19 games left..perfect time to see if Sprong can gel with Crosby. But Rowney..

Love it.
Can't wait for tonight!!!

Cullen-Sheahan-Rowney

You're welcome.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Wonder how long Rust lasts with Crosby this time.

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Wonder how long Rust lasts with Crosby this time.

1 period. O points 0 shots

Moves down... 1 g 1a 5 shots

As usual

I do expect that new team, they paid for my Uber from the airport without a tantrum adrenaline tonight. After that I’d expect an adjustment period.

How long before we see an Ironman Rowney tweet from the Pens?


Question: Who reminds Sully of Sully during his playing career????

Hint: think awful

Maybe Rowney wouldn't be playing had Simon not been straight up trash recently? I don't know what to tell you. Kuhnhackl is hurt and Simon has been atrocious recently. Who should they play in that spot? They don't really have anyone else.

What about a 4th line with Kuhn AND Rowney on the wing?

 

[XanderCrews34]

What about a 4th line with Kuhn AND Rowney on the wing?

Would only work with a guy like Vitale at C.

 

[Fatty McLardy]

BrassGOD, you f***s !!! This team better come out with a huge defensive effort, not only after letting in 6 goals last game but also to not leave Jarry out to dry again..

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

JR adds Brassard, adds Jooris, and somehow Rowney's still penciled into the lineup?

I wish JR had traded Rowney for Jooris instead of McKegg just to take him away from Sullivan.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

What about a 4th line with Kuhn AND Rowney on the wing?

I just puked in my mouth.

Simon is still a much better choice than Rowney. Actually, I've liked Simon on Line 4.

Trashy Simon is still a better option than healthy, at his best Rowney.

 

[cookthebooks]

join me in my pledge to burn my brassard jersey if he doesnt put up a hat trick tonight

 

[chethejet]

After two cups, slow start and improvement in the bottom teams have changed the dynamic. Pens are in a dog fight but the main consideration is the Pens are built for the playoffs. So one game is not any indicator of the playoffs as most have little experience in making them or winning a series. NJ is a good team and will test any team in one game. That is called the regular season. Back nine of Sunday is where it really begins.

 

[cygnus47]

I think Brassard will have an awesome couple games running on adrenalin and then will go quiet for a while when he's actually adjusting to the system before breaking out in a big way by the time the playoffs come around.
