Damned if we did, damned if we didn't.

Let be honest here....Sullivan’s new defensive scheme of avoiding contact with opposing players near the blue paint isn’t doing our goaltenders any favors.

is that new? Because for years I thought we avoided taking the body as much as possible... Maybe it was just wasn’t an official scheme, lol

Yeah but hey their utterly defeatist defensive strategy is at least saving them wear and tear on bodies!

*looks at IR list*

Oh what the f***?!?

Well Sullivan didn't manage to put Weber on the top pairing.

Progress!

I think I'm going to pop a blood vessel screaming "USE THE BUMPER POSITION FOR ONCE" every time I see the Pens pass the puck around the perimeter and either wait for an un-screened Malkin or Letang point shot, or a low percentage cross goal line pass for a tap in fail.

yeah the bumper being active and the player on the half boards actually moving with the puck towards the net have been missing for quite a while.

I’m pretty sure Sully admitted they don’t coach the power play at all right? Like they come up with some neutral zone stuff but just let the guys do whatever they think is right? I don’t think I’m misremembering that.

Well hopefully the addition of... ::checks notes:: ... Yannick Weber can right this ship.

::slowly and blankly sticks head into oven::

Watched the extended cut of Mallrats and The Muppet Movie for some seriously good juju last night.

Chocolate covered pretzel?

 

[Jobeycool]

Shootin the puck first mentality is not gonna work against really good teams like Bruins and Flyers.....Pens just do not match them anymore...traded away to many number 1 draft picks after Kessel left.

 

[Andy99]

please don’t make me regret watching this game boys (unlike the last two)...

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Chocolate covered pretzel?

Ahhhhhhhh Gill just shut the f*** up!

 

[BHD]

Yay...

 

[kodoshin]

A powerplay? They got us right where they want us.

 

[KIRK]

OC, you here tonight? Well it certainly won't lack for entertainment . . .

Speaking of entertainment, it's a Pens PP . . .

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Oh lawd...

 

[Andy99]
