GDT: Pens vs Goldilocks nightmare, Geno playing game 1100

[Al Smith]

Acciari to L3, Puusy to L4/Wilkes?

The line did have a great shift there.

 

[Genetic]

Sully better not put out L2 in the last 2min of this game.

 

[Trade]

Rust is getting thrown out like every other shift in the third. Lmao Sully you f***in dork

 

[Andy99]

Had to take a look but Rust actually played 81 games last season.

And like 80 of them were pretty bad lol

 

[pi314]

L2 scares me defensively

I don't think your list of people who scare you defensively is long enough.

Acciari certainly deserves it, he’s been great tonight

 

[Genetic]

Maaannnn idk if that was offside. Holy shit my heart

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Sid is amazing but in this case that was an example of throw it to the net and good things can happen.

Assuming they hold on (huge assumption) this doesn't mask the continuing issues. As I said before, I hope that management is clear eyed about this team and their actual chances if they back into the playoffs.

that would be actually a great line

 

[SomeDude]

All secondary assists on the power play from winning face offs and getting lucky. Caps fans told me so.

As we continue to watch Sid age like a bottle of fine wine and Ovy like milk. It is just priceless to see Caps fans come up with excuses.

 

[Pancakes]

It's amazing how like half of our powerplay goals have been just Sid or whoever taking a wrister that bounces off something and into the net.

And then they go right back to the same pass pass pass shit again

 

[vodeni]

L2 scares me defensively

they just had two best shifts of the night...so small steps...

I think that’s been their biggest problem. The lack of just getting pucks on the net. Whenever they get set up, they always opt for the slap pass redirects but they’re so low percentage anyway. At least if they just get the puck to the net, they don’t waste entire shifts trying to get set up.

80% of our PP goals are probably because someone accidentally got in the way of the goalie. Yet they continue to stand 5 feet from the net watching the passing and wonder why they suck.

Sid looks incredible out there.

The number one issue is that the two forwards on the half-boards have to skate the puck towards the net every time they get it. Malkin and Sid both stand around too much up high. It's the McCann/Kessel play. Whenever they do that, we get a good chance and it's the simplest play to set up.

 

[HuskerTornado]

Ned empty net for redemption?

 

[SomeDude]

Sid looks incredible out there.

And Ovy looks like a guy whose pharmaceutical pipeline got plugged on account of his country being d-bags.

 

[chethejet]

Pens Eller has been the second best signing after Rakell in 2 years. Smart matters.

 

[Genetic]

Did I just witness rust out there with sid and jake with 2min left in a 1 goal game?

 

[vodeni]

Did I just witness rust out there with sid and jake with 2min left.

he just can't help himself sometimes can he

 

[Killahpunk]

Just waiting for something bad to happen.

Yes. Down to two lines - GCR and DOC-Eller-Acciari.

Crosby is a different animal. He was born on the ice.

Letang going for a skate with his guy near the net.
