Good 1st, good 3rd. Can't have that kind of 2nd period against good teams though.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Jack Johnson is still bad at hockey.

Jim, Jim from the Penguins, needs to make more moves on defense. I think we really need Dzingel. That speed element is sorely lacking and I maybe move Pearson to do it.

Rust and Simon were atrocious tonight.

Can't wait to read angerrus' meltdowns in the morning!

 

[Empoleon8771]

It's hard to criticize them for losing 3-2 to a very good team on the 2nd of a back to back, but damn, that one hurts. Simon, Pettersson and JJ were all noticeably bad. Pettersson is playing himself out of the lineup for when Schultz gets healthy, he's taken a spot he should have had on lockdown and threw it out the window.

I thought Bjugstad had another good game and I liked what I saw from McCann again, so that is good. Murray had a strong game outside of that squeaky first goal. You'll win a lot of the time when Murray plays games like these, so I can't really criticize him much.

It is what it is.

They are who they are.

Gotta play for 60 minutes.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

pretty garbage after they failed to get the 3-0 lead. 1st goal was awful from MM but was pretty good after. damage was done tho

1 PP for is a joke.

If it's a Saturday night game, there is no reason to watch .it's an automatic loss.

 

[EightyOne]

I don't care, in fact I hate JMFJ and Maatta, but that game wasn't on them.

f*** whatever that was. Close score, but, the gap between these two teams is a f***ing chasm.

f*** em all. Ruined my night. lol....why'd I think they could pull off another win.

 

[domaug]

i don't like looking at the Leafs. they repulse me.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Meh. 1 really bad period. Fought it out well but was a taxing game.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Let's give Babs credit for teaching the Leafs the art of interference and getting away with it.

 

[DegenX]

Same reminder as before ... if fans of other teams drop by, as long as they play nice we expect you to do the same. If they aren't, don't engage. Report the post and we'll take care of it.

 

[DReynolds]

I know every backup goalie looks like a f***ing vezina winner vs us. But Garret Sparks may be legit.

 

[PensPlz]

Bob Errey called Jack Johnson "thicc".

Just saying.... this game wasn't a total loss. We'll have that moment forever.

 

[Al Smith]

Good 1st, good 3rd. Can't have that kind of 2nd period against good teams though.

Remember in 2016 when Pens basically put the game away in the second period. Good times.

Bottom pair on D was pretty scary. Riikola looking pretty good at least.

When was the last time Pens scored a goal with the extra attacker?

 

[Turin]

B2B against a good team on the road without Geno, lost by 1. Whatever.

 

[SEALBound]

Considering:

1. Back to back
2. On the road
3. Against one of the best teams in the league
4. Without Malkin
5. With 2 brand new guys

...I thought it was okay. Rotten 2nd period. Good 1st and 3rd.

Sucks to lose, but I'm okay with it. Not going to go jump off a ledge after this one.

This game and the one against Tampa were encouraging. We can still skate with the best in the league.

Probably cost us a 1st and Pearson. Then Maatta, 1st in 2020, Hallander for an upgrade at D.

Right you are.

 

[EightyOne]

I know every backup goalie looks like a ****ing vezina winner vs us. But Garret Sparks may be legit.

Matt Murray was a back up once.

Then the best ever.


.....not sure what his status is now, hopefully Sparks stays good for them...I guess.

 

[Clatartar]

Tough to beat a system of pick plays and interference...

I like Blueger, kids yet to have made a mistake that I’ve seen. I’d like to see him tried a few shifts in the top 6 before the season is done.

What happened to G?

Thick Johnson’s are the way to go.

 

[cheesedanish87]

Considering the opponent i was pretty happy with the game, much better then the San Jose and Vegas games.

No shame in losing a close game on the road to Toronto.

 

[domaug]

i think I'm repulsed by the Leafs because they are coached by Babcock and his clutch-and-grab interference system

 

[Malkinstheman]

- I hate JMFJ and Maatta

 

[StroShow]

Tough 2nd period, 4th game in 6 nights caught up to them. Hopefully Geno is back next game.

Maatta had a rough game.
