it was something like "are you okay with losing because you're playing well and just not getting the results you deserve"

Adams is Canadian, don't try to pawn him off on us.
Also, I don't see how anyone can say they didn't get to their game. Did you see how many times they missed the net? That's Ruslan Fedotenko hockey to a tee.

Sullivan gots to go!
Yup. And if we're all watching the same games, Joe Vitale has pretty much outplayed Sutter on a nightly basis. And Vitale is completely and totally limited as a player, so it's not like he's the solution on the third line.
But Shero needs to realize we don't have a quality third-line center any longer. Throwing it out there, but I'd love to give Brian Gibbons a look. Why the hell not?

DAMN! You're right. You're both right. I am wrong. It was Kevyn Adams who is American...the Adams Family line from Carolina in 2006. Damn.
Well it's a good thing.

What a terrible image.
I thought he was looking more intense for a bit, it wasn't goals, he was looking like a better and tougher player. Then the team started to be complete crap with little effort and he stopped being that player.
Him being invisible isn't the problem when players like Dupuis and Orpik are running around being hacks and Letang looks like he's in need of testing.
Also, why is D'Agostini playing? He's just a worse TK. That 3rd line wing hole is huge. Too bad Jokinen-Sutter-Dupuis would never happen, that would actually be a nice 3rd line.

Yup its like he's just shooting on a shooter tudor. There's not even a movement to fake short side, go wide and open the five hole.

As a GM, you can't be afraid of making trades. No matter who is coaching your team. But who's kidding who here? Bylsma isn't getting canned, and Shero will continue to acquire players for his coach. And after going all in, he's probably less interested in bringing in non-Bylsma types.
Basically, we're %$#@ed.
Basically, we're %$#@ed.
Tonight was legitimately different.
Neal SHOULD have buried at least three of his chances, Orpik could have easily buried his chance, Crosby could have scored on his breakaway, he could have scored on his two point blank backhands directly into Emery's pads, Letang could have easily buried his two wide open nets.
I mean some of those are goals 95% of the time. Tonight was extraordinarily unlucky.

Been saying this since last season. I believe that Orpik would not like a coaching change because that person is more than likely going to push these players with a belief that they are a real contender and this is a opportunity for that new coach to win a cup. Orpik doesn't like to be pushed, so with him on the decline I say Bon Voyage.

Of course most of us here will agree, now. Many of us did since back then. There were also lots who celebrated Dupers new deal as a discount though - and told us "you should not let a player that good leave". To some of us it was clear that re-signing him meant more of him on the 1st line, and even if he played elsewhere, on the third line as he should, his salary would prevent us from getting abilities on the team that we need much more. Anyway, I have written too much about that already.
But that is neither here nor there.... the problems on the Pens are much, much bigger than Dupuis playing on line 1. That is just a symptom.

Complete nonsense. Everyone's so obsessed with getting rid of his meager contract, they look for any nonsensical thing to try to get rid of him.
Like it or not, Martin and Nisky have been the team's best defensemen.
I absolutely hate when people say we got unlucky. That's just a crappy excuse to cover up what the actual problems are. It doesn't matter what should have happen or could have happened, they didn't. It's on those players for not cashing those in. That excuse, and "we didn't get to our game" makes my blood boil.

What a terrible image.
Yeah, that would do it. I want Crosby to explode, or Malkin, or Letang, anyone really. Can Vokoun fly in to do it?
No... he's... an alien. Tell Bylsma.
Everyone but the moron that needs to see can see it. Damn Shero can probably ****ing see it.
The one thing I have faith in is that Crosby will eventually work on his breakaways.

No its not nonsense. I saw him turn his share of pucks over and make ill advised passes. I'm not even taking into account the joke of a goal on the PK. He wasn't the worst offender but he still wasn't good either. Just the smartest kid in the Pejorative Slur class.
As for the last sentence, Niskanen has been nowhere close to one of our 2 best defensemen.

I'll take anyone that will show a pulse... anyone. All Sutter is doing is throwing weak shots on net from above the circles and playing safe hockey.
I thought Glass had a good game tonight and IMO the 4th line has out played the 3rd line most of this year.
