What is everybody eating for thanks giving? Yes, even if you don't celebrate the stupid holiday....

Since turkey dinners take hours to prepare and it'd be difficult to enjoy the down time... we are making the food for grand mum and auntie and it will be home-made burgers and potatoe wedge fries... with tomato, bacon, cheese, relish, onion... that is our thanks giving dinner. I make a wicked burgah man...

What we should do: Ride the Ned
What we will do: Jars

Too bad you can't like reaction a facepalm... Like, Love, Laugh (with or at), Amazed, MISSING FACEPALM!

Moon over Parma, bring my love to me tonight.
Guide her to Cleveland, underneath your silvery light.
We're going bowlin'
So don't loose her in Solon.
Moon over Parma, tonight!

…oh wait, per Rorabaugh, Jarry is the first goalie off the ice. So I guess that means no Ned tonight. Nevermind.

Sully has to Sully lol

I got 2nd row seats on the end they shoot twice. Hoping I can break a string of bad luck attending games.

I’ll be wearing my white Crosby CCM jersey.

So let me get this straight: the Pens lose when you watch them in person? Dude, why did you have to go tonight of all nights?

This is where lack of depth and not having a L3 player that can play up and down the lineup hurts us.
That being said we will probably win like 4-3 or something because that's what this team has done with injuries

I don’t think so with this game if Rust can’t go…our best PKer against one of the best PPs in the league and Jarry in net lol

 

[DesertedPenguin]

No Rust tonight. Hinostroza and Nieto game time decisions but they are available. Ludvig a game time decision. Also, Samorokuv is on the roster.

It’s my first one in a while. I only went to one last year since they got rid of the company tickets. Before that I had excellent luck. It might just be me going to less games.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Destroy the Rags!!! Jarry better come up big tonight

 

[Ugene Magic]

Penguins watch party...

Walking home...

 

[vodeni]

I think L4 stays the same
3 RW in Hino, Zo and Nulander will be put in the blender and whatever comes out will be the lines..
I would keep 3rd line the same
put Nylander with Sid and Jake only because Geno needs Vinny more than Nylander...maybe his brother's crazy streak rubs off of him or something..

oh I forgot Harkins, he'll play over Nylander for sure...

 

[66-30-33]

Quick has been a good goalie for NYR.

 

[Josey Wales]

The Penguins have announced that Bryan Rust will be out of the lineup on day-to-day basis with a lower-body injury.

 

[vodeni]

Rust injury will be hard to overcome tonight
Trouba-Miller will shut down L1
unless Geno can come up with some heroics...
they should trap the shit out of Rags tonight

 

[Icarium]

Why bother playing the game at all, just throw a die to see if the Pens get a shut out win or get embarrassed. It will save a lot of time and effort plus viewer nerves.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

oh I forgot Harkins, he'll play over Nylander for sure...

There's room for all 3 of Hinostroza, Harkins and Nylander.
You just sit Carter.

I don’t think so with this game if Rust can’t go…our best PKer against one of the best PPs in the league and Jarry in net lol

Our best PK'er is Eller or Smith. Don't listen to Sullivan.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Harkins, Samorokov and Ned were the last ones off the ice, so I don't think they will be in the lineup tonight unless someone can't go.

I think we'll see:
Guentzel-Crosby-Hinostroza
Smith-Malkin-Nylander
DOC-Eller-Zohorna
Nieto-Acciari-Carter

Graves-Letang
Pettersson-Karlsson
Ludvig-Shea
