MOD WARNING:

Regarding Daniel Sprong: If it is not happening in real time it does not belong in the game day thread. If you fail to stay on topic you will be thread banned. If you complain about your ban you will be infracted. If you complain about your infraction you will be infracted (again) and forum banned. In addition, the Harry Potter 'He Who Shall Not Be Named' references aren't as funny as you think they are. They will earn you a thread ban as well.

Finally, check the size of your image or gif before posting. If it is over 800 pixels in size it's probably going to be deleted. The hamster can only take so much.

Can't wait to see Despres play.

 

[Gurglesons]

Can't wait to see Despres play.

The funny part is if Despres stayed healthy they’d likely have moved Fowler.

Hope we win this game.

Ducks have been on fire and no way in hell Sprong doesn’t light the lamp against us.

We SHOULD be able to take advantage of the Kesler line though.

This should end well.

Surprisingly, people want to talk about hockey related things that have nothing to do with Sprong. He is playing tonight, and that means there will be some Sprong discussion but it will not be allowed to consume the thread. That's what the Sprong thread is for. This one is for tonight's game.

It wasn’t a criticism of doing that.

God bless you. Let's just get a win. (Though a bit disappointed there's no "double secret probation"!

I have a feeling it’s going to be a sprong day’s journey into night ...our mediocre roster management casts a sprong shadow over this team...
I don’t know...it’s been a sprong time since they Rock n Rolled...

John Gibsons career numbers vs Pittsburgh isn't pretty, this could be a lopsided game, his hometown team gets into his head or maybe because his family is there & is extra nervious.

He also shut them out the last time he was in Pittsburgh, he's fine.

If I recall, his first couple games in Pittsburgh were really bad but then he did much better against us...I think the early numbers skew the sample size....

I hope so.

Murray was OK on Saturday, but I think they should try to keep CDS going while he's playing well.

I hope this applies to the PGT as well.

So, are we allowed to support his play tonight, you know, when he is on ice, just had a shift etc?

As for the gif's there should be a way to block them as they are annoying as f***. You want threads to stay on topic yet allow bullshit like those to be posted 66543892 times a game.

"OK" ? lol

You guys have seriously unrealistic standards.

Gifs make things fun. GDTs should be about fun (and discussing the game like we are in a pub all together).

Weren't there rumors that Gibson was never really considered being picked by the Pens?

Nice GDT!

Will not watch, but will put on my best behaviour if I stop by the PGT*

*Adheres to Sprong only. Can't make any promises regarding other topics...

 

[ZeroPucksGiven]

I hope so.

In back to back situations, it's generally wise to not start the same goalie because you don't want to fatigue them for later in the year.
The goalie selection was fine this weekend and they are wisely going back to riding CDS until he proves to be no longer hot
