Ugly game.


Sully will rain down accountability on them. Bennett, Schultz and Cole must be terrified.

 

[66-30-33]

ROFL a 39 save shutout and it was probably the easiest shutout of his life.

 

[WayneSid9987]

Yuck.

Kunitz smiles because he's omitted and easily the most overrated Penguin of all time.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Games like this just remind me that Corsi doesn't win games and just getting a bunch of **** shots means nothing.

 

[metalan2]

Kunitz is at least serviceable with Crosby. Put him with Bonino and Kessel and it's dumpster fire. It basically made us a one line team.


Fleury did us zero favors tonight either.

I'd laugh if that weren't exactly what's coming.

 

[eXile59]

We weren't going to run the board so I'm glad it was the devil's we lost to. Sucks that it wasn't even a game.

 

[KIRK]

Yuck.

+Phil

- ZERO 5 on 5 shifts for Phil with a center EXCEPT Bonino.

 

[BeautiPhil]

+Kessel was our best forward tonight, despite not converting on some chances. Too bad he got zero help from garbage linemates

-Crosby was off tonight
-I have no clue what Bonino and Fehr bring to this team, aside from good penalty killing.
-Kunitz as usual
-Maatta wasn't good
-Sullivan for not trying Crosby-Kessel at even strength among other things
-PP garbage with Malkin
-The boring turtle hockey that the Devils employ

Pretty disappointing loss after such a good streak, but had to expect something like this to occur eventually.

I get losing.

I get the shutout.

But, the complete lack of engagement is a major disappointment.

A slightly lesser disappointment was how Sully managed his personnel when things were going badly.

If the Pens drop 2 points on Saturday, it's not going to be pretty (I won't be comfy up 3 on the Wings with 8 to go with our schedule) . . .

- ZERO 5 on 5 shifts for Phil with a center EXCEPT Bonino.

The way Crosby was dragging it and Phil was flying in the first period, xCK should've been a line to start the 2nd. I would've made the x Hagelin, since him and Kessel gel together perfectly.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

I'd laugh if that weren't exactly what's coming.

I wonder if Porter is close? Get Lovejoy and Porter in for the last games of the season.

Sheary-Porter-Fehr
Cole (he'll melt the **** down with Lovejoy)-Lovejoy

 

[ThaKloned]

Losses are expected to happen sometimes. This crap is not. Sadly for the Pens it is.

 

[KIRK]

ROFL a 39 save shutout and it was probably the easiest shutout of his life.

We never challenged him.

And, whenever we had sustained time on the offensive zone, it was on the perimeter.

 

[Ugene Magic]

I wouldn't expect them to win every game, but to not even score a goal...I don't like that.

Their shots couldn't have been more telegraphed.

 

[BeautiPhil]

Those were 39 of the tamest shots I've ever seen in my life. Had to be at least 20 chest snipes in there.

 

[KIRK]

The way Crosby was dragging it and Phil was flying in the first period, xCK should've been a line to start the 2nd. I would've made the x Hagelin, since him and Kessel gel together perfectly.

Sniper noted in the GDT that the Devils really were collapsing on Sid. It was a full sellout and not the usual cheating. With Sid not feeling it, he needed a winger who could make a play. With Kessel feeling it, he was the winger who could've done that.

That's on Sully. After he's rightfully done chewing this team a new one, he needs to look in the mirror.

 

[Shady Machine]

Ugh glad I missed this one. We need to get back on a winning streak. Playoffs are still no guarantee.

 

[KIRK]

You mean like the 3 on 1 where Wedgewood was square to Sid a split second before Letang passed?

 

[Empoleon8771]

Ugh glad I missed this one. We need to get back on a winning streak. Playoffs are still no guarantee.

They basically are, the Pens had a 98.9% of making the playoffs before tonight and I can't imagine 1 loss would drop that too much.

 

[vodeni]

If flower was going to play like this, OK, but letting bad goal, than not being able to make a great hlove save, we amy as well mix him up with Murray it won't get any worse

 

[KIRK]

Ugh glad I missed this one. We need to get back on a winning streak. Playoffs are still no guarantee.

9 games left.

Detroit has 9 left.

Next game against Detroit.

Drop two points, and you're 3 points up with 8 to go.

Pens have a much harder schedule to close it, and those two against Philly could become must wins really fast.

They blew a huge opportunity to be able to breathe a little.

 

[Cherpak]

Fleury was absolute **** tonight. That first stinker he let in was an omen of things to come.
