Excellent GDT

From the pregame thread . . .

I like these lines. Splitting up HBK while Sid is out makes total sense.

I'm stunned that Broken HBK would make total sense to you. Stunned.

Don't underestimate the power of Broken brillance, brother KIRK!

Nashville will be DELETE, DELETE, DELETE! OUI!

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Maybe the Preds had some Bolton's spicy chicken. Made me **** my brains out for days.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Solid GDT, Weak side Lock!



Lets take advantage of them on the backside of back to back games.

LGP!

 

[66-30-33]

Rinne still has better stats then Fleury even with his 3-1-1 record lol.

 

[DegenX]

Great GDT, Weakside Lock!

 

[Redline]

Is he practicing? It's unusually quiet on the sports networks about Crosby's situation, I mean eerily quiet.

Still continuing his skating by himself. Nothing has changed. Since he's been consistently skating except for a day off after a week of skating, I think that's a good sign he's coming along.

Wait till the Pens have full practice on Sunday or Monday.
Id expect him to be in no contact on one of those days.i f he doesn't then it's s bad sign.

 

[Elias Pettersson]

Quick question: when is Letang expected to come back from injury? Is it bad?
It's a matter of life or death for my fantasy team.

 

[DegenX]

Kinda feel bad for the Perds ...


Nah, not really

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

We'd better win if I choose to watch this instead of getting some rest.

Damn flu...

 

[BHD]

"It's kind of a flu-id situation as far as the Preds lineup is concerned..."

 

[Gurglesons]

I haven't seen anything saying he isn't playing this game or playing this game. He is supposed to be day to day, but with Letang that could mean literally anything. Unless you are in a H2H league I'd hang on to him. I've drafted him nearly every year because people get scared of his injury problems, but usually he still ends up putting up 50 points with a bunch of PPG production and also he tends to take stupid penalties a lot.

I mean the fact they called up Wars.. I think it's safe to say he's not playing tonight..

I guess he could be a "game time decision" but i am not optimistic about that.

 

[ColePens]

Flu caught me this week, too. Running wild all over. I went to the sauna a bunch

 

[Son Goku]

Kinda feel bad for the Perds ...


Nah, not really

Jesus

 

[Cashville]

We iced 20 last night, lost three (RyJo, Smith, Sissons) by the early 2nd to the flu. Skated ~8 forwards for half the game.

I would be very surprised by anything other than a PIT W, just hoping it's not terribly ugly.

I bet he's not in tonight, but with Pouliot on LTIR they needed a 7th body either way.

Chipolte strikes again.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Chipolte strikes again.

According to Poile it might be Chicken Soup.

Any news on which specific players that are sick?

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I hate 8PM starts. I am bored
