GDT: #4: Pittsburgh Penguins VS Winnipeg Jets @ MTS Centre|Jan.25.2013|8:00PM EST

I honestly think we're coming back in this game though. Malkin and Sid have been playing angry all night.

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

I know Bylsma had that amazing start to his coaching career. But how long does this have to go on before we consider replacing him?

Bylsma gets 1 more year and Shero gets 2 more years imo. Outside #71, 87, 18, and 58, this roster is weak. Should've never let Scuderi and Malone walk. For 3 mill and 4 mill respectively, they would fit this team like a glove.

 

[IcedCapp]

That was my solution for the winger problem. The defense problem: Lovejoy.

oh, sorry. Pens didn't have their ceremonial opening-face-off fight tonight, so I have some pent-up testosterone...

Wanna hit me in the face?

 

[Shockmaster]

People have said it multiple times tonight, actually... When you have a line with 3 players of the same shooting persuasion, it's hard to avoid having someone on their "off-wing"...

And why put Kennedy and Cooke on their off-wings when you don't need to?

 

[Cardboard Orpik]

Down a goal with a period to go. Can't believe Mario didn't sell the team during the intermission. We're clearly never going to win a game again.

 

[hctopcheds11]

Well only a little. I literally said that yesterday when we found out Kennedy was being put with Malkin.

It's so important though that the guy they get to play on the other side is a guy who can handle the puck and make plays.

I watch Neal play off Geno and can only imagine what 87 could do if he had a guy of that caliber on his line.

 

[Medic412]

how is Bennett going to fix what's happening? Pens have had chances out their pores, it's turnovers and defense that's the issue, imo

Can't win the lottery if you don't buy a ticket.



Seriously three unanswered goal WTF

 

[HuskerTornado]

Did Bylsma not know he's allowed to pull the goalie w/ 1.9 seconds left and a faceoff in their zone?

Hey, remember the last time a Pen threw a big hit? Yeah me neither.

This team is playing eerily similar to the end of last year. Not suprising I guess since our only upgrade was Glass for Asham. Nice offseason Ray.

Dupuis in the 1st period.

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

Hey cool, you can make a strawman argument! Good job!

I calls em like I sees em. If Strait was on this team Malkin wouldn't be playing like a ****ing idiot, our 3rd liners wouldn't be passing to Jets, and we'd probably acquire Iginla too. It all starts with Strait.

 

[eXile59]

I was mad about the Pens play & was going to post about it. Then it took me 12 minutes to make a post because of that stupid Hansel & Gretel advertisement that keeps crashing my browser. Now my rage is focused there.

 

[BHD]

The major issue is ****ing DB.

He has shown he can make smart moves. He has shown he can make dumb moves. Right now, he is making a lot of dumb moves.

 

[mpp9]

Enough with the stretch passes. That's all our offense is anymore. How about rushes with proper puck support with intermittent stretch passes when the pass is there?

DB is coaching this team into the ground.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

I still say we got this.

4-3 win for us. Book it.

 

[ColePens]

Gotta be mentally strong in this period. I understand frustration but we are playing in the loudest building and a team thriving on the fans.

Relax... let's win this period and get 2 pts.

 

[brewski420]

The major issue is ****ing DB.

Starting, just starting, to believe this myself.

 

[IcedCapp]

And why put Kennedy and Cooke on their off-wings when you don't need to?

to give you something to be upset about, since everything else on the team is beyond reproach

 

[Frederick Stanley]

And why put Kennedy and Cooke on their off-wings when you don't need to?

because Dan ****ing Bylsma runs this show

 

[domaug*]

I still say we got this.

4-2 win for us. Book it.

that would be amazing if they could play so well that they actually erase one of Winnipeg's goals...

 

[Sivek]

Has DB ever called a time-out during a sequence of giving up a number of goals in a row? Feels like he never, ever does, just keeps that TO in his pocket.

Or maybe he did call one and I completely missed out on it.

 

[Coach Travis]

I still say we got this.

4-2 win for us. Book it.

I'll bet you a trillion dollars we don't win 4-2.

 

[JQR]

I still say we got this.

4-2 win for us. Book it.

How do we strip them of a point?

Well... there's Kennedy who can make plays, carry the puck, and plays the same style of game. Don't worry about that though. The only place Kennedy is allowed to play is on Malkin's or Sutter's line.

 

[Snooki Stackhouse]

Relax... let's win this period and get 2 pts.

Remember when they'd pull these games out a few years ago? The frustrating thing about this team the past couple years is they'd have a period like this and just mail it in the rest of the game.

Maybe they come out with a different mindset than last period. I'm not counting on it.

I don't get this post. lol

Seriously were only down a goal and people are acting like we're not going to make the playoffs
