I wish Letang wouldn’t have score early. I want this team to get shutout while getting blown out so that SOMEBODY wakes the **** up and douses this dumpster fire.

I'm going to go out on a limb and say we probably have the worst record in the league when scoring first.

What does this even mean?

 

[Bingo71]

the last game was not a **** show. 2nd of back to backs, backup goalie in net, outshot the opponent by 10+ I believe. The game was decided by 2 really bad plays, but we didn't play badly the majority of the game.

Whatever you say.

Sully is 7-3 against the Sharks since coaching the Pens.

Maybe I should've put "finally?"

 

[Tom Hanks]

Maybe I should've put "finally?"

Lol gotcha

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Eh, they actually can. Johnson and Oleksiak and Maatta all have good to great shots. They just can't get them off quickly.

Dumoulin has a limp shot though, and Pettersson's is not so great either.

I mean, the defense other than Letang has combined for like 5 goals. Oleksiak hasn't scored since like game 20.

And getting the shot off quickly is part of being able to shoot worth a damn. I don't care if you can shoot 100 mph if it takes you 10 seconds to wind up and it gets blocked every time. That's not a "good shot" just because it's fast.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Brassard doing some smart things

 

[Ogrezilla]

Whatever you say.

oh good point, you've convinced me.

 

[Ogrezilla]

for real this time.

 

[Bingo71]

What does this even mean?

It means that despite the little winning streak and individual efforts from certain players, this team is a f***ing mess and if it takes some embarrassing losses to get changes made, the so be it.

 

[SHOOTANDSCORE]

why bother pulling the G? The team isn't even close to competing.

 

[PensPlz]

Can't even get a shot...

 

[HuskerTornado]

Maybe I should've put "finally?"

The secret was to get their #2 PMD (Schultz), and their blood and guts warrior (Hornqvist) out of the lineup.

 

[PensandCaps]

Malkin is "done" while pacing for 90 points.

 

[ChaosAgent]

Lol.

Gonna be funny when he goes on his eventual 15 points in 4 games run.

To get back to -15 on the season.

 

[Bingo71]

oh good point, you've convinced me.

I’m a convincing guy.

 

[Ugene Magic]

They really need to look into sitting Malkin for a game, maybe two.

 

[WayneSid9987]

Geno's either not in shape or playing hurt. 100%

 

[Tom Hanks]

for real this time.

 

[Turin]

It means that despite the little winning streak and individual efforts from certain players, this team is a ****ing mess and if it takes some embarrassing losses to get changes made, the so be it.

They’ve lost two in a row after winning like 10 out of 11, get a grip.

 

[Bingo71]

Bronx cheer

 

[PensandCaps]

To get back to -15 on the season.

Who cares. He's going +30 in the playoffs with 34 points

 

[vodeni]

Brassard doing some smart things

he's been noticably better after giving him simon and Pearson

 

[HuskerTornado]

Brass Bawlzzzzzzzzz

 

[canadianguy77]

Too little too late Brassard. I swear that guy is only good in the last 5-10 minutes of a game.
