Two GDTs

With HFPens firing on all cylinders after the ASG break, I'm sure the pens will come out on the same page, too

GDT1 will get the first 1:30 and be terrible, and GDT2 will look better but run out of time.

Gonna light a candle and pray to the most high that a stray puck nonfatally takes out Todd Reirden for the season and becomes the catalyst for fixing our powerplay.

There is something profoundly and somewhat infuriatingly Pittsburgh-y about the fact that a bunch of Steelers fans can start up "FIRE CANADA" chants at Penguins games but nobody can muster the same for Todd Reirden.

A "Fire Reirden" chant???

Yeah he sucks massively, but.... aim higher.

I'm far too realistic/defeated for that.

If you aim higher, you'll miss his forehead.

Stillers nation has ruined this town.

Stillers nation has ruined this town.

I won't argue too hard.

I have to think that's some of the root of the whole "This HC is stuck to this team like a particularly stubborn boil" problem.

 

[canadianguy77]

I honestly think this team is ready to go on a little run here.

Pool Party lucky charm, incoming 11 game winning streak. That or we lost 11 straight.

you're equating the season ticket holders and the regular fans. totally deferent group of people

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

The Bison King arrivith.

 

[Ryder71]

To the bottom hopefully.

Mike Sullivan: "Harkins has a deceptively good shot"

Meanwhile Harkins statline: 31 GP, 0 goals.

Sullivan's pulling a Pete Rose.

Flying things vs non flying things? Not funny!

I think it will be a decisive Jets win. I think Monahan will give them a little jolt.

I think it will be a decisive Jets win. I think Monahan will give them a little jolt.

Perhaps, but it often happens that just when there's seemingly no hope for the Pens (no expectations, no pressure) they come through with a surprising win. Conversely when they are expected to do well they often crumble.

That's probably the textbook description of a mentally/emotionally fragile team.

And coach.

 

[TNT87]

Smith needs to come out of his hibernation. He started off hot but has been invisible for 30 games now.

 

[TheGoldenJet]

I honestly think this team is ready to go on a little run here.

Great, a pre-TDL hot streak, just what the Pens need right now

 

[Ryder71]

Exactly, the inevitable is this team is going nowhere, we all know this. Send Jake to the highest bidder, I don't think he'd age well anyhow.

Yeah the only way to predict this team seems to be 'is it mentally easy to get up for this game'. If there's any pressure at all, we lose, if there's no expectations and the team is tough we get up for it. Although thinking about it now, maybe the good teams just don't take us very seriously...

Did he seriously say this??
