GDT: Game 81 | PIT @ CBJ | 7 PM EST

[Fred Glover]

I believe that is called Equivalent Criticality.

We should have lost that first home game of the season
that too was critical

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

Is 2-6-2 considered a run?

It was enought to F it all up wasn't it?

Chicago is 2-8-0 and Anaheim is 0-8-2.

 

[MAHJ71]

Depressing. That’s all I got.

 

[CBJWerenski8]

I never thought I could hate the Penguins more, but now? My goodness.

I cannot wait until Malkin, Letang, and Crosby f*** off and that franchise sits in the basement for years. I wish they would have moved all those years ago.

They’re a joke of a fanbase. Had the second-best player of all-time and another top-20 player of all-time and within 5 years of them leaving they were last in the league in attendance behind Atlanta… until they got saved at the very end with Fleury/Malkin/Crosby.

Bunch of bandwagoners. Wish they were in KC. F*** them.

 

[Cowumbus]

Svozil looks good.
Pyyhtia with an incredible pass to Bemstrom for the goal.
I didn’t notice Knazko, so maybe that’s good?
McKown had his best game.
Luoto or whatever his name is has 0 NHL future.

Live bet the CBJ down 2-1 at +500. Solid night.

 

[Columbus Jack]

Came here to say I hate this franchise.

Just never is going to do itself a favor

They claim to be a sports city, but the only team they really care about is the Steelers. The pirates and the penguins could leave tonight, people would be upset for about a week, then they get distracted by NFL draft top and the pirates and penguins would fade into obscurity

 

[KJ Dangler]

So based on a full season , can KJ become our #1 center ? I’m still going to hold out hope we get a stroke of luck and end up picking#2 , but in the mean time , what’s everyone’s thoughts ?

 

[VT]

Except Sweeney and Luoto, all other player played not only less than 100 games, but they are under 25 years. Four players played his the 1th game, next two less than 10 games.

Defensmen:
Stanislav Svozil 20/1 -16:19
Samuel Kňažko 20/1 - 9:35
Tim Berni 23/58 - 13:29
Bill Sweeney 27/8 - 13:23

Forwards:
Hunter McCown 20/11 -14:45
Kent Johnson 20/87 - 17:16
Mikael Pyyhtia 21/1 9:29
Tyler Angle 22/1 - 10:31
Kirill Marchenko 22/58 - 14:11
Liam Foudy 23/88 - 15:01
Joona Luoto 25/6 - 13:26

Time - 5x5

Tell me, what Jarmo and Lars should do? Broke Gaudreau, Boqvist etc legs?

Did he play C tonight?

Only if he is stronger. If yes, he will be one of the best centers in NHL.

I think they care about the Penguins until Crosby retires, then they'll go back to empty arenas like they were before he came. The Pirates have been irrelevant for years.

 

[Jyrki]

The one night where we'd be sticking it to Pittsburgh by losing to them. Sigh.

 

[NotWendell]

22:14. Why the hell is Johnny Gaudreau playing more than 22 minutes in a game we need to lose?

 

[stevo61]

22:14. Why the hell is Johnny Gaudreau playing more than 22 minutes in a game we need to lose?

Why does Larsen finally play Johnson his career high?

 

[NotWendell]

McConnell needs to clean house NOW. Not tomorrow morning. A fu***ing conference call RIGHT NOW.

 

[Iron Balls McGinty]

At least I can still wear my Hischier and Hughes jerseys in the playoffs. They at least have a core group of young players to be pretty damned good for the next several years.

Replace Steelers with Buckeyes and that feels very familiar.

They have a hellava good young team

 

[behemolari]

What the hell, they were first for Bedard race, why why why!??

 

[behemolari]

I am so pissed off at the management of your organization after spending nights (here in France) tanking with you in the hope of seeing Bedard in Tex' team.

Some attitudes tonight are suspicious... the penalties after the 2-1 for Pittsburgh and some Pens who did not want to take any shots - the NHL wants Bedard in Chicago, that's it

Sorry for you guys

I think you're spot on with this

 

[EDM]

1what pissed me off the most was all the fans around me screaming and celebrating the "victory". One fan said to me, "who cares about the draft, we won the game"........ The guy was from our Front Office.

 

[KJ Dangler]

Chicago ties it
