Pre-Game Talk: March 10 - Pens vs. The Cod Crew

[Nei1ey*]

You mean like last time when we gave them 7 PP and they went 0 for 7?

but that was when our PK actually was good.

 

[AgentM]

your avatar is giving me dirty thoughts about the girl

Can we please show the ability to shut down the opposing team's star player. Every game, the other teams top player has at least a 2 points against us. I'm calling Tavares with a 3 pt night.

That's my girl haha

 

[Darth Vitale]

Where the hell did you find that pic???

Stop! Google Image Time!

 

[Harvey Birdman]

This game will be won on the ability to limit the space that Trav and Grabs have. If we can limit their space around the circles and in the lane. And not give Grabs any chances to scream down the ice then we should be able to simply just overpower them.

If we let ether of or both of those guys command space, this will be yet another high scoring gun slinger game. Id like to see a shut down smartly played win, or a flat out blow out after the past few games.

they have Lubomír Višnovský and Mark Streit now. we don't even have a PP QB

 

[bradshaw06]

I'd like to see them hold the isles to under 3 goals.

 

[MeticulouslyDishevel]

Fish-hipsters... they're no good.

OMG. That's amazing.

We're are 3rd in the league so I guess it's been doing fine with out a "QB"

 

[rmartin65]

Is Malkin supposed to play today? He looked pretty shook up after that hit last night.

hey if complacency is your thing, all the more power too you. production be damned, they could get more out of that PP with better quarter-backing.

 

[rmartin65]

We don't know yet.

Thanks. I did not know if I was just out of the loop or not.

 

[ColePens]

Any updates on if they'll give MAF a back-to-back start?

 

[NutCracker]

That's my girl haha

Nope

 

[Stad]

Not yet. I'm sure DB will let us know when he meets the media at 4:30.

absolutely, but lets not be jealous of the freaking Isles

 

[Frederick Stanley]

I'm done right now. My hometown team just advanced to the Playoff Semifinals surviving a 6 on 3 in the last 2 minutes in game 7.

 

[ColePens]

By the by.. I'll be at this game. Sitting dead center ice. Can't wait. I haven't had a good record as of late so I apologize early for the loss.

 

[ObsessedCreative*]

I heard Bylsma doesn't meet with the media till around 4:30 so I doubt we'll hear anything before then.

JY reported that as well.. doesn't sound good I think he isn't playing :/

[ObsessedCreative*]

Dave Molinari ‏@MolinariPG
Bylsma says Malkin will not play tonight. Not a concussion. Vokoun in goal.

 

[Stad]

I imagine he will be back Tuesday. Not even really that worried about it tbh.

Making a mental note for the plus/minus thread in the event of a loss.
