Will Jooris play? I think they have to go back to him

 

[Unsustainable]

Kuokkanen needs to be sent back.

Jooris should play

call up nedgoaljik because we ned goals

 

[The Faulker 27]

I keep seeing this "it's a long season". Yeah, especially when you suck.

Time flies when you’re having fun, well, we ain’t having fun

Well, it could be worse.

According to Sportsclubstats, we have a 42% chance of making the playoffs.

The Yotes have a 1% chance -- and it's OCTOBER. That's impressive futility, even to me.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

Of course, by the same methodology, Washington has a 37% chance and Pittsburgh has a 29.6% chance, so.

 

[the halleJOKEL]

how is that even possible

 

[Tryamw]

We're Dooooooooooooooomed.

Need to get that Hair dresser from Breaking Bad in here to shape us up. and reduce it to doomed.

 

[Navin R Slavin]

how is that even possible

Well, when you play 11 games and get 1 point, that means you have to get 90+ points in 71 games. They've got to go on an 11-game winning streak to get above loser NHL .500.

They're bad.

Which means they'll beat us.

it would be easy if it were just death, this is a fate worse than death

Have you seen the Pens lately?

 

[the halleJOKEL]

no i dont watch hockey

i just complain about it on the internet

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

TVR and Fleury have looked great. Jooris too. Kruger is playing less competent defensive hockey than I imagined. Darling seems to show mental lapses, get him Adderall.

 

[Unsustainable]

We need a do less better attitude

[AD Skinner]

Pens goal differential is -17. I imagine that probably comes from one or two blowouts but is still pretty surprising.

 

[Surrounded By Ahos]

Three blowouts actually. 10-1 to Chicago and 7-1 to Tampa and Winnipeg.

 

[JCLA]

Pesce down, caught puck up high according to lavalette
