MJ seems like a smart guy, BUT He's a ****ing tard.

I think he gets too caught up in line matching and doesn't realize his 2 star C's need a shakeup on their lines. Can't multi-task.

 

[Sh00terMcGavin]

We sure as hell better not be buyers at the deadline. This team obviously isn't just a "piece" away from the Cup.

 

[Catfishcol87]

This team is gutless can't score even strength, can't score on power play. Then lose the game on a shorthanded goal.. Feel bad for our goalie. This team needs a major overhaul, no one on this team seems to care. We went from 1st to wildcard. And yet another loss in our Metro.

 

[bradshaw06]

hope jr is working the phones. team is broken.

 

[Hank Plank]

How can a team with Malkin and Crosby struggle to score goals?

 

[flaneur]

sigh. this team is definitely something right now.

 

[penguins2946*]

Comeau made the pass.

Okay thanks. Still, it was a terrible pass by him.

Bad pass was a mistake for sure, but you don't chase it when you're the last man back.

Pouliot wasn't the last man back though, there were 2 other guys behind him (Comeau and Martin I believe it was). Comeau just did a **** job at playing it.

Note to Sid: IF you actually are hurt, then please do yourself, team, and your fans a favor and just sit out a few games. You being on the ice is actually doing more harm than good.

 

[Nei1ey*]

At this point, i don't give a **** who gets moved, but OLd man JR better make some big moves or i'll be pissed. Shero left this team a collection of biggest ******* in the NHL. Pushed around every game.

 

[Ogelthorpe]

No, Crosby (I think it was) made a terrible pass and turned it over in the neutral zone. That goal was entirely on the player who made that pass, Pouliot was just going after the terrible pass.

2 bad plays on that goal.

1) Comeau with a horrid pass
2) Downie with a flyby of his own net. Had he stopped in front like he should have, he clears that rebound.

 

[Hobodrifter]

Hate to sound like a broken record, but the only thing that is gonna wake this team up is a coaching change, plain and simple. I never thought we could regress beyond how bad we were under Bylsma.

Is the team gonna start changing coaches on monthly basis if things don't improve? The team needs shook up no doubt. But I think moving significant players would serve more purpose at this point.

 

[specialized]

Look at Crosby on that SH goal just gliding behind Dubinsky

 

[AquaticBirdman]

hope jr is working the phones. team is broken.

JEsus, what the hell else can the guy possibly add to this team to get them to start scoring goals again???? Honestly! This team doesn't need to make more moves it needs to just WAKE THE **** UP!

1) Comeau with a horrid pass
2) Downie with a flyby of his own net. Had he stopped in front like he should have, he clears that rebound.

I was going to mention that as well, but I couldn't tell what player it was. Basically, blaming Pouliot on that goal is absolutely asinine.

 

[pensfan71]

**** it, blow er up. Keep Geno, Sid, Letang, Perron, Maatta, Horny, Pouliot and Fleury. The rest can go **** themselves

 

[AquaticBirdman]

Our biggest ******* at the moment also happen to be the two best players on the team.


NExt suggestion...

i have no idea. something needs to change though.

EXACTLY - he was the one who literally skated right by the play and left the guy free for a wide open tap home.

Downie needs to be gone ASAP. Gives nothing.

 

[AquaticBirdman]

How can a team with Malkin and Crosby struggle to score goals?

Apparently it's all Kunitz. Sid refuses to shoot and can't nail a pass anymore, Malkin takes nights off, and Perron and Hornqvist have completely disappeared....but I think if we move Kunitz the rest will fall into place.

Yessssssssss.......

 

[WayneSid9987]

I'm more mad at MJ right now.
Team has scored 3 goals in 3 games and he refuses to change his top lines. Thats more than DB-level stupidity.
Atleast try something to get your 2 star C's going.

 

[Terrapin]

**** it, blow er up. Keep Geno, Sid, Letang, Perron, Maatta, Horny, Pouliot and Fleury. The rest can go **** themselves

Yeah, but where's the blowup? Trading scrub 3rd and 4th liners won't do anything. The problem is Sid and Geno.

 

[gRoy804]

My wife asked me why Crosby is playing like Peyton Manning

 

[pensfan71]

Yeah, but where's the blowup? Trading scrub 3rd and 4th liners won't do anything. The problem is Sid and Geno.

I'll be ok if we trade one...i hate it but yes...trade 1

Dude he's been our best bottom 6er all year. You have an agenda.

 

[AquaticBirdman]

With the talent this team has right now there's ZERO excuse as to why it's struggling to score 5 on 5 and on the PP. None whatsoever! JR has done a great job at adding depth up front. It has nothing to do with personnel! This team lacks a winning culture right now and a heart beat!
