GDT: Game 73 | Penguins @ Islanders | Sid Might Do Something

[Sidney the Kidney]

Don't get why they broke up the third line that had 2 goals last game.....idiotic. Rust sucks with Sid...

Especially since Sheary and Kessel on the same line has disaster written all over it. Brassard's going to have to channel his inner Patrice Bergeron tonight.

I'm just glad we're playing. These long breaks suck!

The schedule for the Pens is so weird. "Let's give them five days off for some random reason, then immediately have them play back to back when they return".

The league couldn't have spaced out those games better?

 

[PensPlz]

We don't have that luxury, or have you not looked at the standings recently?

Idk. I actually think we have a much better chance at knocking off Tampa in the first round than we do in the ECF.

Some People suggest we're the leagues favorite and that we're handed things. You can't say that about our schedule, anyone with a modicum of impartiality can see that.

It's been the same story every year.

We can literally have 3 flat out amazing lines that gel, but the team will screw that all up to force stuff with Sid's line, it's always been ridiculous to me. Yeah Sid is the captain, face of the team, etc etc etc...but maybe it's him that should maybe adapt a little bit instead of the crap he's been this year for most of the year.

Welcome back, Mur! Rough offense to face right off the bat, though.

Watching Sheary-Brass-Kessel and Guentzel-Crosby-Rust is going to be a bit of a trial.

I hope Sully switches up quickly if it looks as bad on the ice as it does on paper.

Sheary and Kessel is approaching Iginla-Neal levels of dumb

Murray a game time decision tonight? I’ve been busy with work and kids all day and this is the first time I’m able to sit down.

I’d give Jooris a shot with Brass and Kessel to get some jam on that line since the options appear limited ....

But let’s go boys! I just want a win...

Can’t watch the first two periods tonight but I’ll be checking in....

It’s not ideal but not completely crazy either. Sheary has speed and can forecheck. I highly doubt it’s a long term thing either.

Quote in my post above says he's in.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Wait, what has he done to the lines? Ffs.

Yep and just heard on WXDX he is in.

Some context for how bad they’ve been on the road.

OTTAWA - The Ottawa Senators issued the following statement regarding team captain Erik Karlsson and his wife, Melinda.
"The collective thoughts and prayers of the Ottawa Senators organization, the city of Ottawa and entire hockey community rest with Erik and Melinda Karlsson following the loss of their son.
We ask that you respect the family's wishes for privacy during the grieving process."


Another one?? WTH

Only got to enjoy Murray on my fantasy team for a few games after trading for him. Stoked to see him back tonight.

Hope you guys pick up the W against that awful Isles defense.

 

[GoSensGo6172]

Yeah man we are all heartbroken for Erik and his wife here in Ottawa. He was so excited to be a father and the birth was only a couple months away. Just awful news.

 

[Ugene Magic]

That is yesterday's practice lines. Wait until the official one comes out.

Miscarriage?

Here's live footage of Sheary walking to the team bus.

You know my tag line for him...”Conor Sheary: perfecting the art of horizontal scoring”.....
