GDT: Game #5 Pens vs Flyers. Time for a new look!

[Speaking Moistly]

He slid over on his stomach for some reason on the Umberger goal. Went down way too low on the Bellemore goal. He spent half the game rolling around his back and his stick handling is comical. I just don't understand where this guys head is at right now.

Really? It's up his ass and in ruins.

 

[ColePens]

The overreaction is embarrassing. This team needs a good 40-60 games before we can really judge the style. They are still learning it.

 

[Corvidae]

This does look dishearteningly similar so far

Same disheartening group. Their level if intensity is almost directly related to the importance of a game. It's so hard to get excited anymore. You can actually FEEL when they give up and they may be the most easily deflated team in the NHL.

 

[Dick Sledge]

I'm glad I'm not on suicide watch tonight.

 

[gordie]

Fleury needs to be removed from that room and the dependence they have on him.

 

[WayneSid9987]

Letang, Fleury, and Kunitz right??

Those would be the guys i move away from yes.
And you can get very decent return for them.

 

[Country Mac]

Disgraceful

Glad to see Kunitz taken off line one

 

[vodeni]

I have been in hate MAF camp allways, but this has nothing to do with him. They have a lot of work to do. What I see is the team just has no idea what to do

 

[BigEezyE22]

He's not blamed for every goal, but he needs to come up wih at least one save and keep us in these games. Combined with his awful puck handling that kills possession for us, it adds up to a mediocre performance when you need a good one.

Is 27 saves at least one?

 

[mikethelegacy]

this hyperbole is out of control

I can't think of a game in the last year that we've had less puck possession.

Watch this goal from 2012:



I don't see how Fleury has changed from that in the last 2+ years. He still sucks just as much as he used to.

It's not the system.

 

[KIRK]

Malkin with his 2nd shift at center at the 14:00 mark of period three.

Don't know how Johnston could have brought himself to break up the Sutter-Malkin combo.

One more thing: For as much as everyone has celebrated Kunitz-Sid-Horny, they are paid to SCORE ES GOALS, something they haven't done with a goalie in net since Toronto.

 

[Fordy]

lol i can

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

I haven't even noticed Sid out there since the 1st. Not his best effort tonight.

 

[Marns]

i'm actively committing suicide. this game is the worst thing that has ever happened

The pens are literally worse than my grandmother's waterobics hockey team

Yeah but don't forget nobody here cares just one bit about the regular season, it's all about the playoffs. Oh, and everybody is fully aware that a new coach and system means growing pains.

 

[pensfan71]

lol i can

The Boston series comes to mind

 

[darkbrew*]

Everyone looks bad tonight, but am i the only one noticing that Ehroff has been AWFUL? This guy looks like hes still playing on buffalo. Hes so underwhelming.

We basically have 5 of the exact same dman - weak ass smooth skating pansy type guys who disappear when they give up a bad goal.

 

[ColePens]

I have the post-game coming up as soon as the game is over. We need a temp thread til then.

 

[Waffle Fries]

switching kunitz and dupuis is telling me that this coach is clueless

Why? Kunitz was playing like ****, so he got demoted. Pretty simple.

 

[PensFanSince1989]

He's not blamed for every goal, but he needs to come up wih at least one save and keep us in these games. Combined with his awful puck handling that kills possession for us, it adds up to a mediocre performance when you need a good one.

Do the 17 saves he made in the 2nd period not count as saves?

I agree he's looked off tonight, but Jesus. The other team makes a nice play that results in a goal or our defence hangs him out to dry, and it's still his fault or "well, he just can't make the save when he we need him to" apparently, the 15,16th,17th shot against weren't important shots to save, but that 18th shot? that was the save we needed him to make (numbers here just hypothetical)

 

[Speaking Moistly]

How hard do you think Rossi is jackin it to this game and his human Bylsma doll?

*Vomits*

If you want to score a goal don't play Scuderi.
