Post-Game Talk: Penguins 4, Bruins 2 - A Huge Win

[Gurglesons]

If Sullivan was smart, he’d run..

McCann - Sid - Rust
Jake - Malkin - Hornqvist
Teddy - Bjugstad - Kessel
ZAR - Cullen - Simon

When healthy.

 

[KIRK]

Except he looked just like ZAR.

Glad they’re making a change though.

He looked NOTHING like ZAR.

He moved to make himself available and supported instead of watching and reacting. And, he got Geno the puck where he was moving and had time and space.

That is NOTHING like the ZAR of the last 10 days or so.

Jared, Jared McCann from the Pittsburgh Penguins, seems like such a down to earth and humble guy. The Penguins have a gem in him.

Whatever you want to pretend. ZAR has made the same vanilla plays the last ten games that amount to nothing.

This will end well.

Best balance tbh.

-Sid missing the empty netter. It would be a bit of a shame for him to miss out on 100 points this year. He's been unbelievable this season.

+Great 3rd period there from Geno with Blue, if that's a line that gets going this team could be very good.

 

[BrookswasHere44]

McCann is an empty net superstar. He's good at hockey also

 

[Nakawick]

The Sid post late in the 3rd, that reception and mustard on the shot, just sick.

 

[PensandCaps]

If Sullivan was smart, he’d run..

McCann - Sid - Rust
Jake - Malkin - Hornqvist
Teddy - Bjugstad - Kessel
ZAR - Cullen - Simon

Swap Rust and Horny tbh


I do agree that Jake with Malkin makes us a better and deeper team, along with Kessel on line 3.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

How in the blue **** is Trotman in the NHL?

Once again JJ and Guds were really solid.

Because they want a right-hander and we have two hurt.

 

[Shady Machine]

McCann - Sid - Rust
Jake - Malkin - Hornqvist

ZAR - Cullen - Simon

No way you can break up Jake-Sid. The chemistry is insane. Just play McCann with Malkin.

 

[TeeTee]

I have had no beef with Gudbranson since we acquired him. I was expecting an entirely different player than what I have seen so far.

 

[Gurglesons]

McCann is an empty net superstar. He's good at hockey also

I hope they don’t pigeon hole him as a top
six winger. But, if they are keep him with Sid.

 

[Dick Sledge]

If this is the McCann we're getting for years to come I would have traded Sheahan and Brassard for him alone.

 

[Gurglesons]

No way you can break up Jake-Sid. The chemistry is insane. Just play McCann with Malkin.

I honestly think Malkin and Jake looks even better.

 

[Dinfire]

Great team win. Squad is rounding into form just in time. Losing Letang and Dumo at once may end up being the team’s saving grace. Winning the Metro is not out of the question. Big game Tuesday against the Caps.

 

[KIRK]

No way you can break up Jake-Sid. The chemistry is insane. Just play McCann with Malkin.

Or Rust when he returns.

Or Blueger until he turns into a ZAR pumpkin.

There are some options.

As long as Sully rides the hot hand and is proactive about pulling a guy (even a pet) when he turns colder, it's workable.

 

[Tender Rip]

If Sullivan was smart, he’d run..

McCann - Sid - Rust
Jake - Malkin - Hornqvist
Teddy - Bjugstad - Kessel
ZAR - Cullen - Simon

There is nothing smart about separating Sid and Jake.
Most other things look fine and well, but that there is a wet brain fart. You know this to be true also.

 

[PensandCaps]

Jake-Sid-Horny
Blueger-Malkin-Rust
McCann-Bjugstad-Kessel
ZAR-Cullen-Simon

I like splitting up Rust and McCann, don't want allll the speed on one line

 

[WayneSid9987]

Solid win. Best things atm:

1) Murr is dialed in right now.
2) They're starting to look good on home ice again.
3) ZAR going down may be a blessing to get more lines going.
4) May get Letang back here this week and Trots will be long gone.

I'd bring up Blandisi for his speed quotient and he's not bereft of skill at all.

McCann-Sid-Jake
Bluegs-G-Phil
Simon/Blandisi-Bjugs-Horny
Simon/Blandisi-Cullen-Wilson

Dumo-Tanger
JJ-Schultz
MP-Guds

Needs 12 points in the next 13, he’s gonna make it

Well Blueger unlike ZAR makes skilled hockey plays, he won't turn into a pumpkin

 

[Ryder71]

Trotman can **** off any time now.

good to see Blueger tried with Malkin...my plan is coming together nicely!

Trotman looks very overwhelmed at this point. We need to sit him. The PP is also a serious issue here. But beyond that and Geno blindly throwing pucks in dangerous areas of the ice there's a lot to be happy about tonight.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Always loved Canner and knew he would he a great fit. Nice to see him hit 16. I really hope he scores 20 and Jake hits 40 this season. That depth scoring tho with Canner.
