GDT: #50|Tampa Forcing the Pens to Go Dark | Wed, Jan 30TH (8:00PM) PPG|NBCSN, SN, TVAS

[Zirakzigil]

Isn’t Semin on tour with The Incredible Bongo Band now?

Loves the Pug Bongos apparently.

Rusty should have kept par with TB goonery and crosschecked him in the head there...

[KIRK]

When will he win a cup?!!

When he's more consistent and is committed to playing winning hockey.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Also, isolate on Geno. He's not forcing **** in transition defense. He's letting Rust be Hags, if you know what I mean, and be the first layer, and then Geno is right behind him. Tampa's getting nothing, even when it looks like they have something.

Truth be told, I've always LOVED Rust with Geno. Said the other day he's my first choice for LW of the available guys. He also is my first choice for RW.

Ideal world, we get Ferland and play him with Geno-Rust. That line COULD be Kunitz-Geno-Rust (where Kunitz was broken down and Geno had one good arm) on steroids.

I think there's a danger of having too much "try hard" on the line and not enough skill though.

Geno can use a little finesse to play with...and Phil can use a dedicated defensive complement too. I'd keep the line together.

Cedric Paquette is a massive p***y

 

[Andy99]

Ironic thing is Malkin played the most consistent hockey of his career (when healthy) from the day Bylsma was fired until the end of last year, and only a hater wouldn't recognize that.

I’d still like to see him shoot more...should have shot that and let Rust have a rebound attempt...

 

[PensandCaps]

When he's more consistent and is committed to playing winning hockey.

Leading playoffs in points twice, apparently isn't winning hockey.

 

[Ogrezilla]

Rust is always going to frustrate with chances like that, same as Horny does. If Rust had legit good hands he'd be a 6 mil player.

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Cullen is moves insanely well fora 42 year old dude on the ice.

Depends on what we do at 3C.

And how consistent Rust is at LW. Because I think he's better on the RW and the best call for Geno's RW.

And Ferland isn't exactly just more 'try hard'.

 

[PensandCaps]

Hey, Rust has some sneaky good hands. You stop that.

Ever see his inside out move? Works every time.

 

[KIRK]

Cedric Paquette is a massive *****

He is.

And, while I am loathe to abandon the Vanilla Ice strategy, I wouldn't mind one for the Pens 4th line.

60% of the time it works every time.

This Kendall girl is more Jason Witten than she is Tony Romo.

Look, the key is for Rust to bury enough of those chances and to otherwise do his thing 200 feet.

Cialis...

It's more so the lack of creativity and tunnel vision that holds Rust back. His hands are good.

Also, his shot is wildly inconsistent

she figured what's required to be announcer on NHL/NBC

 

[WayneSid9987]

Even tho the output off the 1st was their best, it was their worst played period tonight.
Solid 40 after that.
The PP needs to get it's ass in gear.
Hurry back JS.

He actually is relatively better in the tunnel vision department with Malkin than he is with some others.

 

[Andy99]

It’s a very low standard...

 

[Fatty McLardy]

Pearson needs to start doing more, now that the honeymoon stage is over, he's falling back in to his LA stage.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Michael Schofield? That ring a bell for anyone here? hahahaha
