[EspenK]

On paper it looks like it should be 6 in a row.

Pens 4-1.

 

[Halfboard]

Ahhhhh, poor little Cindy got the sniffles & a tunny ache.........poor baby.................

 

[The Jones Zone]

I feel as if I am beating a dead horse....but I can't understand why Cracknell isn't in for Tropp or Boll. He's played 10x better than either one of them. The 4th line gave up the second goal Thursday so Richards not wanting to break up that line doesn't hold water, Cracknell is physical but does it the right way and stays out of the box

Tropp has been just as bad as Boll if not worse..........7 minutes of ice time, and 4 minutes in the box


Anyway, love to see the season ticket holders Not sell to these Pigeon people

I expect Calvert to get a goal tonight, he's been off his game a little but I look for a rebound tonight

Battle On, let's get another W for the good guys

“@smitchcd: Rychel in Hartnell spot this a.m. Looks like same lineup otherwise. #CBJ”

 

[End of Line]

Couple of Pens tidbits here. Sill is out and Megan was sent to WBS. Farnham and Rust were called up so they'll most likely will be in the lineup.

Here's to a good game tonight gents.

 

[gdsmack267]

Expected lineup but the lines change a lot since so many forwards are out

Klink-Malkin-Comeau
Spaling-Sutter-Hornqvist
Rust-Goc-Downie
Farnham-Ebbett-Adams

Martin-Letang
Ehrhoff-bortuzzo
Scuderi-Despres

Griess (assuming since MAF played last night)

 

[DJA]

No offense, but that lineup for PIT looks atrocious. No reason on earth we can't bag two points tonight.

 

[NotWendell]

LEE'S KEYS:
1. Jump on em early. Get the Nationwide (Arena) on your side. Don't turn it into a neutral site game.
2. Stay out of the box. We say this every damn game but it never happens. We can beat this team five-on-five.
3. Jump on em again in the 3rd. They played last night. Legs should be getting a little heavy late in the game.

 

[MAHJ71]

With Sid out and Penguins possibly starting their backup goalie we best capitalize while we can and pick up the 2 points.

Vibe for tonight is telling me 2-1 Jackets.

 

[jackets4life]

This is like a preseason lineup for the Pens. We need this one.

 

[NotWendell]

Did my part yesterday. Went to the zoo donning a CBJ sweatshirt and booed the penguins. People around me chuckled.

Then I overheard a group of gals say this...
Girl 1: Penguins ARE SO birds.
Girl 2: But with those little wings, penguins can't fly.
Girl 3: Yeah, and they can't skate either!

 

[cbjfaninmo]

Hopefully, we can jump on them early. This is a very winnable game. We need to get two!! Go Jackets!!!

 

[Cowumbus]

I hate Skille on Boone and joeys line to be honest

You, my friend, are doing God's work.

Win or lose, meaningful or meaningless time, I think Rychel scores his first NHL goal(although for him, no matter what the score is, it would be meaningful as it would be his first).

I will either say 3-2 overtime or shootout loss or a 4-2 win. Bob makes the saves when needed but we don't allow as many shots in tonights game.

 

[Cowumbus]

Samkow, I look forward to your GDT pictures and this is my favorite so far. Always built lego cities when I was younger

I agree. Has Skille ever even scored a goal when playing with those guys? Last year he was red hot until he jumped to their line.

 

[NotWendell]

I hate Skille on Boone and joeys line to be honest

I'm right there with ya! I'd rather see Gibbons on that line and Skille on the 3rd.

 

[CBJx614]

I'm right there with ya! I'd rather see Gibbons on that line and Skille on the 3rd.

I'd rather Rychel with Jenner and Johansen

Great to see the blame game continues. Love to see non-season ticket holders buy some seats up

 

[CBJWerenski8]

The Pens played extremely well defensively last night. A bad rebound by MAF was the only reason it wasn't a shutout.

 

[major major]

I'd rather Rychel with Jenner and Johansen

Hear Hear!

 

[Cowumbus]

door opened a 5:30 is anyone down there able to say if its a home game or neutral? IOW is it 50 percent pens fans like normal? osu dosent play no excuse to not be mostly jackets.

Hear Hear!

agreed those two could really get joey going
