GDT: Game XVIII Pens vs Rangers 1900hrs: Now serving streak of 1

[vodeni]

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

lets see, this will be interesting...I would not be surprised if he swaps Carter and Nylander

I would have expected Harkins in and Nylander out, with Harkins on L3 and Zohorna on L2. Because that's the most Sully way to handle it.

Except Harkins was incredibly SOO bad his 4 games, even Sully won't play him.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Nylander on L3 and Z back up on L2.

Nylander is useless in a bottom 6 role. His only value is exactly what exists here - fill-in top 6 winger. Even Sully has to know that.

 

[Ryder71]

We could use his help lol..

Unfortunately, he really doesn't offer any help. LMAO

LOVE IT! This is why we keep you on retainer!

“Throughout his career, Jarry has faced the Rangers in 16 games and has an 8-7-0 record, 2.94 GAA and .899 save percentage.”

uh yeah, tell me again why he needed to start this game…

meanwhile, in six games this season, Quick has a 4-0-1 record, a 1.98 GAA, a .928 save percentage and one shutout.

 

[Miro4Norris]

With our right wingers out, let's just bring "Tom Sestito" on the ice and tell him to have good time with Rangers number 8

I would have played NED, anyone who has the balls to wear a Myles Garret Jersey after the Browns beat the Steelers, lol in addition garnered a shut out in that game deserves another start.

 

[Miro4Norris]

Sully has to Sully lol

I think it's up to goalie coach. Sully has a lot of power though so not sure.

Also contract wise jars is clear 1 unfortunately so organization wants him to be 1

Well I would like my abs to look like Brad Pitt’s and be just as wealthy…unfortunately I’m not and unfortunately Jarry is not a #1 goalie and needs to play fewer games in a platoon with a 1B goalie…

 

[vodeni]

come to think, although I feel bad for Rakell, his injury came at the right time, we need to find who would be that extra body that can fill the top 6 in somewhat decent role..

 

[Ulf5]

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?

Ban this poster!!

 

[LOGiK]

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.

Drew Carey intro theme? The good one.
I always thought it was: so don't lose her insulin.

The price is having your seven children hate you…

 

[Jobeycool]

Is this new defensemen Dmitri Samorukov being called up tonight?

 

[Maninthebox87]

Hopefully with Ned coming off a shut out Jarry is looking over his shoulder a little bit and plays well knowing there’s legit competition behind him.

Highly anticipating this one but also dreading it.

Jarry back in, what are the actual odds he looks good tonight for 60 minutes.

EV scoring will be at a premium. Rakell had perfect opportunity to get back to the top line but he's also hurt. Very weird and frustrating.

Rangers powerplay is currently scoring at 32%. Penguins 15%. Only way to win this game is by closing that gap.

 

[PensandCaps]

Seems obvious to me to replace Rakell with Nylander. He didn't look bad with Malkin.

If Devils can destroy us down their 3 best players surely we can beat NYR down a few of our wingers.

The Rangers are missing Chytil and Fox so no excuses for us imo

 

[Josey Wales]

Phil Bourque is on TV tonight

 

[Malkinstheman]

Stupid not to start Ned but whatever, just add it to the list

 

[Ugene Magic]

No

The only way is to stop doing them.

We can always shit post, but you are enabling them.

 

[Grouch]

Ok then….looks like DOC L1. Interesting.
