Post-Game Talk: Cole's Plus/Minus: Pens vs. Red Wings and it didn't go so well!

[LOGiK]

I'm going to wear those old school red and blue '3d glasses' out in public one day just to see what people say to me. Hopefully I hear some good zingers so I can steal them.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Even in a loss this was a fun game to watch. Detroit even being out of the playoff picture was awesome.

Guys like Simon and Hornqvist look bad in games like this against fast young teams.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Trotman playing is a joke. I f***ing hope the offense shows up when Geno and Letang are back.

 

[canadianguy77]

They can't possibly miss the playoffs so this loss wasn't a big deal. The other teams will take care of it for them.

Also the 3rd line went to shit with Rust on that line too. Maybe people need to start admitting to themselves that he's a streaky player, and when he's not producing, he isn't very good and is capable of bring lines down. Sorry in advance for the hurt feelings.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Sullivan is literally the complete opposite of Bylsma. Disco Dan would never mix lines up. Sullivan can't help himself game to game. Why McCann, Sid, Jake was ripped up is ****ing lunacy.

Bylsma would also have this team playing some pretty good hockey while missing half the line-up, Sully is clueless when he loses just Geno.

Still hate Disco though.

Well, that was an absolute bag of canine excrement.

Was hoping the last two games wouldn't be important. Welp, here we are.

 

[domaug]

I'll say that the Pens have, at a minimum, 4 regular defensemen on their roster for whom they should listen to trade offers in the summer.

 

[Tacitus Kilgore]

All I care about is how we clinch next. Someone tell me

We fall ass backwards into the playoffs by losing all our further games while Montreal and Cbus does too. I didnt even bother to check the schedule too see if that is possible so theres that though

 

[Shockmaster]

Huge minus to Sullivan. I know the injuries are ridiculous, but seriously, stop going back to what we know doesn't work.

 

[2wayPlay]

Maatta and Phil is a good start but unfortunately you still have Geno and Letangs annual injury before playoff itis

Be happy we got those B2B boys can’t nobody take those away.

Agreed. He doesn't bring enough when he's not producing to be considered anything above an average player.

+ Murray
- This board has become insufferable anytime we aren't blowing someone out. Worse than normal even.

Psh, we've always been insufferable.

Think Cole said any CBJ/MTL loss past tonight or PIT win and we're in.

The 2 pts also pretty likely secures a 2nd/3rd spot as well vs Wild Card(s).

 

[Gurglesons]

Huge minus to Sullivan. I know the injuries are ridiculous, but seriously, stop going back to what we know doesn't work.

Like Jake - Crosby - Phil?

 

[Mr Jiggyfly]

Maatta always has these moments where he looks like Sam Beckett just teleported into his body at the exact worst time and Sam thinks “oh boy!”

 

[Ugene Magic]

Huge minus to Sullivan. I know the injuries are ridiculous, but seriously, stop going back to what we know doesn't work.

Yeah, fast young team and he benches fast young players until it was out of hand.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Bring back Trotman.

BECOME??!! We've ALWAYS been insufferable!

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I almost hope we miss just so I can read some spicy takes all summer. Geno to Russia, Sid's career is done, Letang's being forced into retirement, Murray's G L O V E, Sully!!!! >

 

[treeni12]

1st line started look like trash after Letang went down. Nothing to do with wingers. People still don't appreciate how high level Letang played

 

[Honour Over Glory]

I hope 'Zona wins it all.

 

[Gurglesons]

For those that are crying about this loss the Jets are getting blown out and CBJ did too and they actually have something to play for.

 

[Trade]

This is getting eerily similar to the 2014-15 defending Stanley Cup Champion King’s who slept through the regular season only to actually miss the playoffs by two points.

 

[Tender Rip]

Your user name is very apt, it seems.

 

[chethejet]

Pens are just not hungry and it shows up to often. Yes this was a mediocre effort and while hopeful Malkin and Letang come back to top performance, they are looking more like a wildcard team which will be a harder match up. Win Thursday and Saturday and play the Islanders.

The Letang part might be true......
