Post-Game Talk: Penguins 4, Lightning 2 - Punching A Faux Bully In The Mouth

[KIRK]

Just one opening comment: If Dan Girardi just woke up Evgeni Malkin tonight, then all due respect to Sid and Letang, GIRARDI is the Pens MVP.

Nice win.

Too bad they’re going to lose to Ottawa next, especially if Andy is in net.

 

[Rudy Russo]

Pens lose to the Devils and beat the best team in hockey tonight.

 

[PensandCaps]

I say we keep Blueger as the Mascot, at the very least.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Murray was great. Geno woke up. We showed a lot of heart.

Great win against a great team.

Now, do not suck on Friday.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Two points against the Lightning? The how doesn’t Maatta!

 

[BigEezyE22]

This is what it's all about.

Modern Pittsburgh sports summed up this week with the loss to the Devils and the win vs Tampa.

anyway, I missed most of the game so this is all I've got

 

[SHOOTANDSCORE]

Derick who?

 

[Son Goku]

Watch us win

I dont mean to be that guy but...

 

[heysmilinstrange]

Those two goals at the end by Tampa left a bad taste in my mouth.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

The Blueger effect.

 

[K Fleur]

This is Girardi's career highlight.

 

[Ryder71]

Much better game by Geno tonight. Encouraging.

Pettersson also, strong positionally, good stick.

 

[Turin]

Good effort, they didn’t really play amazing but I guess that’s usually what happens when you go up 3-0 right away. Good stuff.

Get Staal.

@Soggy Biscuit, isn't it ironic that the first LW Geno has looked like himself with since Hagelin left is the one who plays 200 feet like Hagelin? Nobody could've seen that coming. Nobody. Well, maybe nobody except YOU and ME and him . . .

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Not a fan of the last 4 minutes of the game but hopefully this game sets them off in a good way.

I’m still loving those yellows

Don't rinse with vodka just yet. Save that for Ottawa.

Why did you miss it?

 

[Ogrezilla]

This is Girardi's career highlight.

oh my god I remember that so well. We had like 15 people at a friend's house watching that game and the collective sound we all made was fantastic. And that's the game where the Rangers thought they won the shootout but then had to come back out and we won it

Interestingly, I thought they played their best in the 2nd. So, it wasn't going up 3-0 and then they took their foot off the gas. It was up 3-0, TB pushes back, the Pens punch them in the mouth, then they own the first 15 minutes of the 3rd, then they take the foot off the gas up 4-0 with 5 minutes left.

Why did you miss it?

driving home from Kentucky with my boss.

 

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Only negatives for me....

Murray letting up that soft goal at the end.

Rust continuing to miss golden opportunities. Needs to be better if he’s going to be in the top 6.

Loved the play from Blueger although it was very limited. Hopefully he gets to play with guys that can hold their own at some point and not just Wilson/Sheahan for his time here.
