Post-Game Talk: Knock knock! Who's there? No one. Pens lose to Flyers.

[IcedCapp]

+ The coach. Doing a masterful job coaching this team, the players just aren't executing the plan

+Letang. Great shot selection and accuracy.

 

[rkhum]

+Fleury, for real

 

[Fleury3434*]

+ the glass behind ray emery...boy was the glass a beaut tonight...so many saves almost as many as emery.

-------LETANG...OMG IS HE BAD.

 

[Black Label]

Jokinen has to have some of the worst balance I've ever seen. He's falling down on every single shift.

 

[vodeni]

++another valiant effort in third when behind, fighting for every puck, systematic offensive zone presence, just another beauty

 

[hctopcheds11]

This team needs way more size, skill and speed throughout the forward line up. Just nobody who is tough to play against outside of Kunitz in the top 9.

One of Dupuis, Jokinen or Sutter has to go IMO.

 

[Smacker]

Losing to the Flyers sucks.

Something needs to change and it needs to change soon. Three goals in last three games isn't a good thing.

 

[Fleury3434*]

------if pens sticks were only made of coal. They are gripping the sticks so hard we would have diamonds by now

 

[Speaking Moistly]

+ They earned the result. Yay for earning things.

Throw Dupuis out of a window, trade him for something, make his disappear, do something about that pos player. His suckage is mesmerizing, I was just locked onto him a few times.

Bylsma is so monumentally stupid and incompetent that it looks like he's trying to be that bad. Imagine him coaching the Olypic squad, Americans; all that talent.

- To all the people complaining about one single meaningless regular season loss in the middle if November. Your logical criticisms are all invalid because of this.

 

[hiptanaka]

This team is hilarious.

The team played so well from the 10th minute on! Perfect, structured hockey!

- Pasquall Dupuis, Bruce Orpeck, and several others were a bad choice this season

 

[penguins2946*]

-They played like crap against the inferior Flyers on my birthday. That's a quadruple negative.

 

[bradshaw06]

making ray emery look like patrick roy. Letang missing the wide open net twice on the pp, crosbys breakaway. the refusal to change things up. the 4th line out there against the flyers first line on the first goal. 3 goals in three games. awful. something has to change, but it wont.

 

[eXile59]

We just didn't get to our game.

 

[Crozbar]

+This team is only a step or two away from 'getting to its game' and blazing a path to another solid top 4 regular season finish. Any day soon the game will be found.

Anyway, I wonder who is the current mustache boy?

 

[Dangles78]

+ This team is an offensive juggernaut

 

[Fleury3434*]

anyone else see bylsma tonight do this multiple times? flyers send their fourth line out there, danny b decides to send his fourth line out there. NO YOU SEND YOU BEST OR SECOND BEST LINE TO TRY AND SCORE. o and then the flyers send their top line out there, we send out our fourth line and get scored on for the first goal. Happens again multiple times in the game and each time we cant clear the puck out of our end. Stop beating a dead horse.

And if I have to see another game where dupuis is starting on the first line and jokinen is on malkins line i just might lose it

 

[Sty1877]

Get Dupuis off the first line.

Less Mustache Boy in practice, more 'let's practice hitting the net' drills?

 

[Pancakes]

Dupuis is killing the top line. Kunitz isn't playing great either but he at least occasionally makes a play.

I thought the Malkin line looked very good. Or rather Malkin and Neal did. Jussi was kinda eh.

Our bottom two lines really stink. Sutter is horrible. If Shero wants this team to do anything in the playoffs he needs to re-tool our bottom six somewhat. That bottom six will get exposed otherwise. The only good player on it is Beau Bennett.

Our defense clearly missed Paul Martin tonight. I thought Maatta looked uncomfortable and nervous alongside Letang. I don't blame Maatta for that as Letang plays a high risk practically Pejorative Slured style of defense that he can only get away with because his talent level is outrageously high.

 

[penguins2946*]

Times like now are when I'd go sign Guerin or Roberts. Crosby isn't a leader. He focuses only on himself. He's more focused on himself giving it all than everyone else. If he wasn't the captain, that would be alright.

 

[BigEezyE22]

- To all the people complaining about one single meaningless regular season loss in the middle if November. Your logical criticisms are all invalid because of this.

How about 3 consecutive losses?
3 goals in 3 games?
Squandering a sizeable division lead?

Pick one.

 

[Fire Shero*]

- Dupuis, I hate him
- Koon
- Crosberry
- Neal
- Letang
- Niskanen
- Maattaa

I can't remember a game where we took more crappy shots. It's almost like every forward tonight was imitating Tyler Kennedy. Fans around here always say we should be killing them, look at the shot totals! The pens take far too many low percentage shots. Emery won't have many easier 30+ saves in a game than tonight.

Shero has to be fired. Two huge off season blunders in signing disco to an extension and signing Dupuis to that massive overpayment. You don't pay a third line grinder almost $4 million. I would be happier if Shero was fired than disco.
