GDT: Game 42 | Pens vs. Canes | 7 PM | ATTSN-PT, FS-SE

Why is our puck possession so poor this year?? I expect more

We should be a transition team. We don't have the big horses to maintain the puck along the walls.

Love that 4th line. Hurry up and get a 3C JR.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Is it me or does Hunwick-Letang NOT look god awful?

Hockey math . . . a cluster**** + a cluster**** = meh?

Well in regular math, multiplying two negatives creates a positive, so. Clearly onto something here.

 

[vodeni]

Sid's line because of the difference in Sid's game.

Geno's line . . . truth is Geno and Phil ALWAYS have sucked together with possession (which is why I keep saying they need a better fit on the LW, someone with jam).

Bottom six is self explanatory.

split them up, doing them no favor playing together

 

[Andy99]

They're letting them play.

It's 70s hockey night as well I guess....

 

[WayneSid9987]

Also Letang is falling all over the ice...lol

 

[KIRK]

Honestly, they just stuck two very good players together until they developed some kind of “chemistry”. They need to be on their own lines. An LW isn’t actually going to fix that, it’s just managing a problem they keep repeating.

No, with the right LW, you'd get the type of production that one would expect from putting Geno and Phil together.

It's just the Pens haven't had that right LW for the last 2.5 seasons (really longer than that if you look at Geno's career with the team).

Now you’ve jinxed them and they’ll somehow take out half the team in one spectacular screwup.

Sid backhand sighting. I love.

 

[KIRK]

Also Letang is falling all over the ice...lol

So, he's better tonight?

I mean, better falling all over the ice than getting beaten all over it, no?

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Also Letang is falling all over the ice...lol

Switched skates with Sheary?

 

[Night Shift]

Is Jarry still injured?

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Vintage Sid-grinding there.

The reverse jinx post right there. Well done

 

[canadianguy77]

That goes in for Sid last season...

 

[cassius]

Anyone else disappointed that Steiggy isn't around to tell bad stories about the 70's instead of actually calling the game?

Yeah me neither.

Yeah, I really don’t think you will. This team needs a couple of prime Kunitzes but Kunitz-x-Kessel and Kunitz-Malkin-Sprong/x would be the better result.

 

[BHD]

There is letting them play and ignoring blatant calls. And we need all the luck we can get.

The first call is going to be bruuutal.

 

[KIRK]

Is Jarry still injured?

Well, they read him last rites this morning, so I think so . . .

 

[Tom Hanks]

Vintage Sid-grinding there.

That’s encouraging to see. He’s been terrible below the line of late.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Yeah me neither.

That's a good call right there.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

They’ll call tripping for a blatant dive.

 

[cygnus47]

Geno has to be so careful. He gets away with so many hooks, if the refs need to give a penalty he'll be first cab off the rank.

I'm liking our defensive zone play more so far tonight. We're getting on their D better than we have been in a while.

Also, what was with that Horny-Geno chemistry there in the neutral zone?!?! Never seen those two pull off anything that complicated before.
