Hope to see a huge game from EK and Geno. LETS GO PENS!

 

[Andy99]

I want Geno, Jarry and the PP to take this game by the balls and win it lol…yes, I’m living in a fantasy world…

on the other hand, maybe a loss gets Dubas moving…

 

[The Old Master]

is sully still coaching? just asking for a friend.

 

[Icarium]

f***ing Yohe still doesn't have the guts to even imply that the Pens lack of discipline and general mental fragility might have something to do with the coaching staff. And applauds Sully and Reirden for the new power play unit. Why is he wasting his time in sports journalism, he should try stand up comedy instead,

SOOOOOO The "ENTITLED" Core is Undisciplined & weak & it's the Coaching Staff's Fault ?? HAHAHAHA

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Anybody who has played sports with zone defense concepts knows how laughably bad the Pens' pp is.

Like, a 4 man box should immediately come apart with a couple of quick passes. 5 guys slowly passing around the perimeter and trying to pass through the box is the only way to not beat 4 guys.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

This feels like a game they should lose handily, so I expect them to blow out the Leafs.

Anyone who even THINKS of putting nylander on an NHL power play should be fired. Immediately.

UMMMMMM Genius without Rust & Rakell who are the playing on the PP ?? I'll Wait

 

[ZorkEnchanter]

I heard we are not sticky enough? True?

He’s waiting, your move hocket homers. Your move.

I think Sullivan should be in hot water. You all have watched him coaching for far longer than I have, but this will be the 20th game I've watched with great detail, and it's just not working right. We can't really point to the players to say "Sully's doing it right but the players aren't executing. Sid has been excellent, and Malkin, Karlsson, Letang, Guentzel, Rust, Smith, and Pettersson have been good to great so far.

I think it's about time EK is given more freedom to play his game. This has to be the fewest amount of times per game he's skated the puck out of the D-zone in his entire career. It makes me think Sully isn't aware that one of his greatest strengths is breaking out, and yet on the regular all we see is EK rimming the puck around - which at best leads to rushes up ice, but more often leads to giving the opponent the puck again in neutral zone, or turning it over because the winger wasn't there/couldn't get it out. The chemistry with Sid has been blossoming recently, so that's good at least.

Also, what the hell is with the stretch pass fetish Sully has? Too often it's just a hope play instead of a well-supported breakout with short clean passes. Surely Dubas can't be watching these games thinking this is the vision he has for how he wants this team to play.

Even if they have a good win tonight I think Dubas should be contemplating a change.

ANYONE else on the roster. Hell put Sully out there before Nylander.
Eller, Nieto, Acciari

 

[66-30-33]

Let’s reverse this from yesterday…

I hope we lose.

 

[BrookswasHere44]

I'm so sad that apathy has set in for me

4 - 1 Win w/ 2 PP goals

I'm happy with Eller play so far with the pens.

 

[Andy99]

Lol…there’s no hope…

Mark Madden's Hot Take: Nothing should be off-limits to get Penguins on track

Going into Saturday night’s home game vs. the Toronto Maple Leafs, the Pittsburgh Penguins had just 19 wins in regulation time over their last 64 games. They blew a 2-0 third-period lead at Buffalo on Friday night, losing 3-2. The Penguins’ season has taken on familiar characteristics that have been

You know, proven NHL players instead of proven NHL rejects. Genius.

[Tacitus Kilgore]

Wins are nice and usually preferred.

But a goose egg of a game here would be beneficial in Dubas getting rid of Sully

LOL what a jabroni
