Post-Game Talk: |January 8| Pens vs Stars | End of the winning streak

[Zirakzigil]

Well it had to happen eventually. Great 1st and subpar rest of the game. Team looked lacklustre by the 2nd. On to the next one!

Would have been nice to at least make it to OT

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Time for overreactions.

 

[Common Sense]

Buy out every f***ing contract on the team and start over again with 20 new players

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Cancel the parade! They are going to miss the playoffs! Beginning of the end!

Am I doing this right?

 

[Kristopher Letang]

It’s 4:30PM. If you’re angry after a 10 games winning streak… log off and go outside y’all still have time

 

[SomeDude]

No longer undefeated in the Alex Nylander era.

I'm gonna come back in a few hours and laugh at the overreactions, though.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Where's the poll?

The final 5 seconds summed this game up.

 

[Gurglesons]

- Sullivan already pulling the McCann with Rodrigues. Excelling at C and puts him at W for reasons.

 

[Dominance]

Joke of a second half, but I don’t think it was on the players. We were sitting back the whole time and trying to defend the lead from the start of the second period. You know better than that, Sullivan.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

That game was f***ing dog shit.

Total piss poor effort after the 1st.

Can't even hold onto get a loser point.

f***ign pathetic.

Really the only guy I'm super critical of in this game is Carter, because he's been off for a while so he should be coming back rested. But the way he's skating out there makes him look like he's even more gassed than everyone else on the team.

I can't get too critical on the team when they're coming off a 10 game winning streak and are playing shorthanded in their 3rd game in 3.5 days. But I do think Carter deserves to be criticized for being heavily responsible for 2 goals against while coming in fully rested.

Can’t get too mad, they just won 10 in a row. Sucks to lose like that, though. Welp, on to CA.

 

[EVGENIMERLIN]

Annoying to lose in regulation up 2-, but they looked gassed, it happens.

 

[PensandCaps]

ran out of gas at the end. oh well.

Sullivan should really let Erod do his thing in the middle of the ice.

 

[DearDiary]

If Carter was scratched... Pens would have won this game

He had symptomatic COVID at 37.

Let’s just get this over with now. No bickering at your fellow posters. You’ll just get punted out of the thread. We lost, it was going to happen. Relax and move on.

 

[KrisLetAngry]

10 wins in a row.

Bound to get a stinker.

3 games in 3.5 days. Back to back. Travel and then an early game.

Would have liked to see some more effort. So many giveaways in the 2nd and 3rd in the defensive zone just extending zone time and tiring us out.

Power play was extremely weak as well.

Let's see what happens next game.

 

[eXile3]

Carter does not look like he's ready to return but we're out of forwards.

I think we could have managed the taxi squad better. No reason Z shouldn't be in there. Icing 7 D has been, and will always be a stupid idea.

 

[Crosbyfan]

And so it ends...

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Little bit sad, but hoping for them to get the all time record is pretty greedy.

I enjoyed this streak thoroughly. Teams very often go cold after long streaks end so I hope we bounce back quick and minimize the damage.
