GDT: #65 - Penguins @ Habs 19:00 - I've Got A Cold Edition

I'm sure this shit happened the last time the Pens were in town, I'VE GOT A BLOODY COLD!

The game tonight was always a "must win" if the Pens are not to be golfing next month and the result from last night in Buffalo gives no room for error (or shitty officiating)

I've not seen any Tweets about a practice this morning so I will presume everything is "as you were" with a maybe a swap in goal to CDS. I'll add the line-up once it is posted.




Until then, I'm going to take some more drugs and get ready for an evening watching this crap live with alcohol

Sid will have a multi point game.

We'll give up 4+ goals and lose.

Wash, rinse, repeat.

 

[Pens x]

Plz don’t allow more than 3 goals, DeSmith.

I am back row too, in the rafters so at least I can stand up and have a clear view. Once again I am at the ends (usually sit center ice) at the end the Pens will (attempt) to shot at.

I honestly just want him to hit 100 points. This season is a waste anyway.

I want us to get a Cup. But between our injuries along the blueline (and overall crap play there) as well as having shit goaltending (besides DeSmith's first half the season) there is literally about a .02% chance of that happening.

We're not even in the playoffs right now.

Let that sink in.

Yea I’m just trying to be positive if the season winds up how it’s projecting. Obviously I want a cup too, since our window is so short. But if he can hit 100, I’ll at least be happy for the guy and his attempt at carrying the team.

I hear you.

Sid's had a monumentally good year. He's been a 2 way beast, while maintaining a great scoring pace. When you look at how bad Malkin and Kessel have been for much of the season, along with the constant juggling by JR and Sully we're lucky to not be closer to the basement than playoff bubble.

Without 87 this year we'd be in the running for Hughes at #1. I'm not joking in the least.

@Clare2904 Hope you feel better! Thanks again for the GDT

In the poutine of life the Pens are the napkin.

Gallagher is gonna make this team his bitch.

 

[Shady Machine]

Tonight is as close to do or die as it gets.

Naaah. With CBJ losing today and us playing them twice in less than 10 days, we have our backdoor in.

 

[Andy99]

Can’t be a PO team if you can’t beat the competition...boys gotta do it tonight if they’re ever gonna do it...

Of life? Maybe this year but come on now. One bad year doesn't mean we are the napkin!

It won’t be good if they lose, but I think by the end of next weekend we will have a pretty good idea if we should get back into old tank mode or not.

Hello darkness my old friend...

 

[ImporterExporter]

Part of me wants to be the 8 seed just so we can "shock the world" by sweeping Tampa in round 1.

 

[Tables of Stats]

Canucks fan following your team to see if we wrecked the good parts of Guddy's game or if he's just naturally awful.

I can't say I'll be cheering for you exactly, the Canadien's turn around this season is just too good a story to cheer against, but I'll be looking at the condensed game highlights. That said, good luck and here's to a fun game.

If Guddy does anything of note I'll catch you post game in his thread.

 

[LittleSpoon]

The weather seems a little fair around here.

Agree with CBJ losing it does give us a bit of a leash. Those two games against them are the biggest of our season. Win those both and that's 4 points we gain up. Huge at this stage.

People got to relax a little

There's 18 games left. They ain't winning them all. Neither will the Canadiens, Blue Jackets, Canes, etc. This game is in no way a 'must win'. It's more important than say the Florida game on Tuesday, but still not a must win.

 

[SEALBound]

Let's see, is it too early to blame the loss on Johnson and Gudbranson?

Isn't that what the cool kids are doing here? Did I make it? I gathered all the bias I could muster and made a poor, rash decision...I have a little credibility left in the corner but I can call JR old or something and get rid of the rest if that will help.

Naw, man, you're behind. We're onto blaming Murray for everything now.

It's probably not time to relax, to be fair. But there is a happy medium. We are in the playoffs right now to be fair. There is no sugar coating it.
