GDT: 34| Penguins at Lightning|7:30 - TVA Sports & Root Sports

[Ugene Magic]

Frederick can't do the GDT so if someone has time that would be great. If not I guess we can use this. Now, I know this is short notice for, Fredericks, I'm also looking for someone to take over the GDT for the Caps on the 27th. I've been sick for a good while and have put literally no effort towards it.

Any takers for either?

Respond in the GDT thread, and we both thank whoever takes them on.


LGP!

I would, but I have no imagination, very little in the way of humor, and am technically inept.

I am also far from the usual nay-sayer, but I think we are going to get absolutely smoked tonight. I mean a good ol' fashioned pimp-slappin', humilating, ass kickin', beggin'-for-mercy, beat down.

At least it'll be character building for the youngsters.

[Deutschland Dangler]

Don't care about the result tonight, I just hope we don't lose any more players. Oh and that for a change, nobody freaks out if we look flat and get dominated.

 

[wheelz87]

I'm suiting up tonight guys. Winger for Sid right here. Ugh I really don't want to look at the lineup tonight.

Would like to see Zatkoff get the start, not too sure about MAF going back to back. Probably going to get crushed tonight anyways. Thank god for the break after the game. (even if it's just a few days)

 

[LionelHutz*]

Looking forward to seeing Uher, Obviously would have preferred it being under different circumstance, I like the package he'll bring to the bottom 6 in the future.

 

[Killahpunk]

They should of gave Zatkoff the start. Hell we should use an all WBS lineup to ensure no more regulars get hurt before the Xmas break.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

So, who gets injured tonight?

I'll go with Rust. He's looked good, he's a forward, and I want to see how he plays with Sid/Geno, so he's the natural choice.

But maybe I'm not thinking big enough.

Start with guys who haven't missed a game yet. Malkin, Despres, Fleury, Scuderi... is that it? Damn. Then call ups who haven't missed one yet, maybe Klinkhammer too.

 

[Shrimper]

Ha, I said yesterday how annoyed must Zatkoff be if he doesn't play.

 

[Cherpak]

I fear Fleury's stats are going to take a serious hit tonight.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

 

[Waffle Fries]

Ew. Why?

 

[Shrimper]

Why split up Sid and Hornqvist?

 

[Fordy]

lines are... alright. would rather give malkin kunitz...

 

[Stad]

I actually like those lines, guess i'm the only one lol.

 

[Cherpak]

Why split up Sid and Hornqvist?

Probably just trying to jump start that 1st line. They haven't done much lately. I'm all for it.

They haven't played much together lately. Hornqvist was hurt and Crosby had the mumps. Hornqvist just scored a goal last night off that top line.

Kunitz, again, is the one that needs to be moved.

I do too, Rust is a much better skater than Hornqvist.

I saw plenty of times last night where on the rush it was Hornqvist killing the play with his lack of puck handing and accepting passes from Sid. Rust has shown he can do those things so MJ is probably wanting to see if it works.

Eh. Kunitz's lack of effort killed a good number more plays in my opinion. I'm not against Rust getting a shot, but I don't see why Hornqvist should be the one to get moved.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

I can see putting Rust with Crosby, but Kunitz is doing his impression of a corpse while being gifted a spot with a rookie on the other wing and I'm not a fan of Malkin-Hornqvist. So, meh. It's always going to be ugly with these injuries and holes in the roster.

 

[bambamcam4ever]

Yep. Hornqvist is the new player though so the shine hasn't worn off for most fans yet.

Crosby has played 30 games this season and has not scored an even strength point in 16 of those games, while having #72 on his line almost every game. Considering Sid quite rarely went consecutive games without producing at ES the last 4 years, it's hard to figure why most fans don't see Hornqvist as a possible problem on that line.

 

[roquay]

I don't mind it. I wanted to see Rust with Sid.

Might as well try some things at the moment.

The Crosby-Hornqvist duo has gone dry recently, I'm not surprised they split it up.
