GDT: Game 13: Washington @ Pittsburgh, 3pm EST Feb 14th

[Empoleon8771]

Penguins on a 3 on 2, Zucker drops it to Letang only for Letang to bobble the puck, take a weak ass low shot 7 feet wide of the net and serve as an outlet pass for the Capitals

lol

 

[SEALBound]

I want to hit Letang for that play.

 

[pensfan71]

Kapanen ignores a wide open Malkin cocked for a one timer until he's covered.

Wasn't that Letang

 

[Gumbercules]

Not sure why Letang sprayed out to the boards there. Zucker was driving the D to the net, follow him and shoot through the traffic. Moving towards the boards just takes away any shot angle that he would have had, and the defenders can play pass all the way.

 

[Andy99]

Get another goal Pens!

 

[sovietsanta87]

Anything goes out there.

 

[SEALBound]

Lol, "whacked off by Codi Ceci"

 

[Tom Hanks]

Possession possession possession

 

[Trade]

Teddy Toews at it again.

I have an idea...he's kinda slow

 

[Randy Butternubs]

What division are we in? The Preparation H East?

Mr. Norris candidate strikes again

Was that Letang? I thought it was Kapanen.

Whoever it was, Malkin was locked and loaded and open for a one timer with Zucker actually skating towards the net.

He ignored Malkin, peeled a little left, and then bobbled upon realizing Malkin was wide open if he'd moved the puck 5 seconds before.

 

[Empoleon8771]

They won't do it but the Penguins should swap Zucker and Rust

Also man that Knights vs Avs game tonight at 7 is going to be insane. Absolutely must watch hockey IMO

 

[Kristopher Letang]

I think Geno can survive with Kapanen, but Ron Hextall is going to have to save him from Jason Zucker.

It's hard to imagine that whatever Hextall could get for Zucker would be any less impactful with Malkin and Kapanen.

Fake news.

Zucker is good because he’s from Newport Beach, CA and he played for the University of Denver before getting drafted by Minnesota in the 2nd round of the 2010 draft.

Letang, which makes it all that much funnier

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

ZAR looks a tad faster so far in his first games back.

 

[SEALBound]

Late to the party but lol Sprong is scratched for Sheary

Can we chalk him up as a bust yet? 2 goals and 3 points in 10 games while being almost 24 and not able to stay in the lineup of a legit NHL team.

4th line player. Will gladly take Pettersson.

Better still, when he got the puck, Malkin was open for a one timer to his right, and he skated left and ahead with it. No shot. No pass for a one timer with Zucker driving. Just skated left and neutralized the 3 on 2.

 

[ChaosAgent]

Fake news.

Also you personally know his junior coach and his parents and they'd take the kids to practice in a Dodge Durango.

Edit: also where his junior coach played hockey. On and on and on.

 

[TKalltheTime]

How much of a f***ing joke of a D-man do you have to be that PK Subban has won a Norris and Letang hasn’t, hahah wow

 

[Phil68]

Zucker is really really really terrible with Malkin. I mean awful. Minus the blunder on Backstrom, Malkin had a good defensive game. Zuker cannot create or continue to develop a play. What is the point of a center having wingers who cannot complete plays.

 

[metalan2]

Tough one.

I'd still go Matheson despite his decent last two games.

Ruh - Ceci is too good to break up.

Math - Marino haven't been good overall.

Matheson is gonna play. Ruh sits.

Nah it was Letang, I rewound just to be sure. It was 58.

And predictably dumb, I suppose . . .
