Post-Game Talk: Cole's Plus/Minus: I love beating the Flyers!!!

[ColePens]

Plus

+ Third Period Resilience: Gotta love it. We just believe now that we can do it. It's beautiful. It started with the 4-1 comeback (even though we came back in the 2nd).

+ Sid: Nothing better than Sid scoring against the Flyers. I thought their line had a million chances and they deserved more.

+ Fleury: Not his best goal against, but he really did make big saves to keep us alive down 1-0. I thought he played a simple but very solid game.

+ Dupers: ****ing right! Concussion and on for the final goal.


Even

+/- Dustin Jeffrey: He would make great plays and follow them up with ****** decisions.



Minus

- No hunger for both teams: Very lazy game played by two rivals who have really been at one another's throats for awhile. That was a decent third period - but meeeeh for Flyers/Pens.

- Joe Vitale - Injured? There goes 60% of our faceoff wins. Joe God better heal himself.

- Neal: Needs Geno back ASAP

- Coburn: Are you ****ing serious?

- Refs: Let too much go and look what happened

Please note - this is not the trade thread. Keep this about the game.

 

[Beau Knows]

Great win. I thought Dupuis had a horrible game, but I'm glad he is ok of course.

 

[td_ice]

Damn, what a shot!

 

[bathroomSTAAL]

+ It isn't widely known, but 12 is better than 11

 

[Shrimper]

I'm off to bed. 2am. Enjoy guys!

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Feels great, nice comeback. Flower was great tonight and solid in the past couple of games

 

[bradshaw06]

I'd love to see tks numbers vs philly. feels like he always has a big game.

 

[JQR]

Why the **** is TK always taking slappers with a wrister like that?

 

[domaug*]

+ Crosby
+ Kennedy (props for that good shot)
+ Bennett
+ Fleury... how could i forget to mention him here? awesome game.

- Neal
- Jeffrey (played pretty well but can't finish)

-- Coburn (gutless hit from a gutless player)

 

[edog37]

definite gut check win tonight. agree on the meh factor for a typical Pens-Flyers game, but 2 points is 2 points. MAF played well after a soft goal & the OT winner by TK. Damn, it always feels good beating Philly like that.....

 

[ColePens]

If it's under 8 minutes and we are down a goal - watch out. We are winning.

 

[Pancakes]

I thought Neal played a pretty good game he just needs to shoot more. For some reason lately he keeps faking and then trying to make backhand passes. He's not Crosby he needs to just rip the puck if he gets even close to the net. With his shot there's no excuse for him not to.

 

[SundanceKid]

+Crosby
+TK
+Fleury for keeping this a 1 goal game


-Orpik. Giving up the puck like 10 times in our D zone. Sloppy game.

 

[Tender Rip]

Tyler Kennedy..... KENNEDY!

Awesome .

I will now kill any notion of Joe Morrow ever having been a Penguin to begin with and get on with my week.

Happy trails, lads.

 

[Crafton]

+ It isn't widely known, but 12 is better than 11

Richard Park > Jordan Staal

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Ok, I've held off on his other ones...but we are getting to the point now where I actually don't want Kennedy moved. If he can keep this up, he can do what he did for us during our cup run. We all know he elevated his game anyways in the playoffs like talbot. Instead of him being the whipping boy and all of us wanting him gone for a draft pick, how about hoping he can keep this up?

It's definitely not unrealistic to think so.

A Bennett - Sutter - Kennedy line with Cooke being moved down to 4th could be pretty nice( if we don't make any more moves)

 

[BCard86]

That's Pittsburgh Penguins Ice Hockey. Great win. There is no quit in this team and they are getting better. Adding Morrow will indeed help. But who could have predicted the recent scoring from the 3rd and 4th liners??

 

[IcedCapp]

+++ Fleury.

 

[bradshaw06]

yet another game allowing under 3 goals. 8 games in a row.

 

[mrzeigler]

What is TK always licking off of his upper lip?

 

[Malkinburgh]

TK has 5 goals on the year, 4 of them against the Flyers in each of the games

I actually thought that Neal kind of was moving his feet tonight, at least by his standards.

 

[HuskerTornado]

+ Done with the Flyers for a while.
+ Keith Jones' sad face after the game talking about the Pens' 12 game win streak.

 

[nhindian]

+ Fleury. Lots of clutch saves there, unfortunate bounce for the goal against
+ Sid. That shot.
+ TK. DAT SHOT. Was dangerous all game for once and actually tried to make plays. That pass to DJ was sick, too bad DJ didn't shoot.

- Orpik. Bad turnovers


---- Coburn. What a puke. Hoping for a suspension but doubt it. Who cares, at this point I'd rather the Flyers just keep him since then they won't plummet to 30th. Or maybe they still will.
