GDT: MDSF: ISLANDERS vs. PENGUINS| GAME 3 | Are you too good for your HOME?|4/14 12:00PM | PPG

[SouthGeorge]

"Are you too good for your home" I feel like this is foreshadowing Letang will have a great game

 

[2wayPlay]

Get a couple goal lead and put the pressure on the Isles to play a different game than they want to.

I was reading an article by Mark Madden saying how Sid won’t let the Pens lose to NYI. How is that looking?

 

[Clare2904]

Why is Scott Wilson in the line-up?

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

This is going to be a disaster.

 

[JakeNBake59]

yep current performance plus an afternoon game bodes well for the penguins


just find a way

 

[Trade]

Pens playing like **** AND an afternoon game? What can possibly go wrong?

This has all the makings of us potting 7.

I hate this "I'm so chill, nothing bothers me, man" iteration of Barry Trotz.

 

[Tumty]

So we have a 24y old +20 points player on our first line. What could possibly go wrong? Ive lost my faith in Sullivan.

 

[Pens x]

Get Simon the f*** off of Crosby’s line. Sullivan is a moron.

 

[Pens x]

What is the iteration of Sully?

 

[LOGiK]

45 minutes until d-day boys and girls

Of course that fat f*** wants to go to supper early

I haven't been keeping up, but I assume we're panicking and the series is already over?

 

[Turin]

I haven't been keeping up, but I assume we're panicking and the series is already over?

They lose every afternoon game remember?

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I am not panicking, but I have a hard time seeing the Pens coming back.

Murray standing on his head is probably the only reason why game 2 was not a blowout. D is bad. Transition is bad. Sid is not Sid. Letang is still hurt.

I mean, tough to be confident.

I expect a win today, but not a series win.

shoulda put Horny there so we could have a 32 year old with the exact same ES points (Simon has 4 more than Horny since the new year actually) on the line. That's the ticket.

What’s our record after 2 straight losses?

seriously. How can Sully expect Sid and Guentzel to produce anything with our 2nd best RW on their line, and now we're anchoring them with AHL all-star Simon?

There is something very wrong with the locker room.

Game 2 looked like a revolt. Nobody gave a shit. Guys were coasting. It was absolutely pathetic. Even 87 looks like he doesn't care.

We'll know in a few hours whether this team has any pride or is doing their best to sabatoge the coach or particular players.

they could play the worst game of their lives and we wouldn't know any of that. Well, any more than we already know they aren't f***ing doing that because they aren't middle schoolers

Again with the locker room revolt speculations after losses. Same shit, different day. I love this board lol

This is the classic example of a game in the past that you feel good about bitching about ahead of time because they'd come out flying and make you look stupid for doubting. But I don't see it with this gaggle of washed up, underachieving, disorganized, undisciplined, no-plan, no-confidence players who haven't shown a spark for more than a game or even period at a time all season long and even going back into last year.

So... yeah... go team, or something. Hopefully they don't embarrass themselves too badly on home ice. Though anyone who has paid any attention the last little while doesn't realistically expect them to do anything so... good news... pressure is off.

Not that they'd play any different if there was pressure. That's too hard.
