GDT: GDT Preseason game 5 Halifax Edition: Pens vs Aval..... What wait?! Why the Senators? We want Mack

[Andy99]

It’s the preseason so I’m not going to overreact …I’m going to save that for period two of the first game lol…but this team is already looking like this season is going to be a slog lol

We have JC pickle stabbing at passes from his own dman . Move your feet old timer.

The 3rd line looks monumentally better than it did last year. Even Hinostroza looks good on the 3rd line.

Get Carter out of the bottom-6 and I think the bottom-6 is sitting in a really good spot.

One thing that's super obvious with this team: their transition game is substantially stronger and the forwards are staying closer to each other to support each other better.

 

[PaulD]

Jarry picking up where he left off.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Hinostroza gives me Joe Vitale vibes. In that he's small and pretty shit, but will skate his ass off every shift.

 

[canadianguy77]

Nice little exit under pressure by Kris and Graves. First time they’ve been in the same page so far.

 

[Jacob]

Zohorna looks good, as usual.

 

[WickedWrister]

Karlsson is the Penguins 2nd best player at this point. Him and Crosby are just on a different level than anyone else.

Legit think he might be the best lol... there's just an extra gear there.

 

[Andy99]

13 shots on goal and not one of them looked like they had a chance….but that’s Mike Sullivan hockey, so thrilled to
Watch it lol

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

EK is so sick

I honestly think we've gotten the better of play this period, despite the score.

I’d try to keep him and Sid on the ice together as much as possible. They’re both so adept at finding passing seams and angles

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Tkachuk just killed a guy--who was that, Acciari?

 

[Ugene Magic]

I honestly think we've gotten the better of play this period, despite the score.

Where have we heard that music before...?

 

[WickedWrister]

Zohorna looks good, as usual.

Yeah, I liked him keeping his head up and taking the space through the neutral zone. He's not a burner, but when he gets those big legs going he can surprise people with his pace.

 

[The GM]

Wtf?

 

[WickedWrister]

I honestly think we've gotten the better of play this period, despite the score.

Welp

 

[Randy Butternubs]

twas

 

[NikolaiCakebreaker]

So many shots aren't getting through

 

[Jobeycool]

Graves not playing to well so far ..

 

[Borgir]

We blow

 

[Ugene Magic]

 

[Pancakes]

I've only been half watching since I just got back from vacation and my brain is fried but EK looks nasty. Can't believe how fast he looks too.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Hinostroza looks like a NHLer based on this period. Probably should only be a 4th liner or 13th forward, but he looks like a NHLer with his speed.

That sequence is exactly what I was talking about with Letang and Graves potentially having brain fart problems as a pair.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Kind of getting tired of the shocked Jarry eyes looking at the scoreboard.
Like "omg...how did that go in?!"
