Post-Game Talk: Penguins 8, Flyers 5 - Jake says . . . IT'S OVAAAH! (Guentzel mic'd up post #663)

[ColePens]

I honestly cannot get enough of this. Even when it's idiotic Pens fans losing their mind.

ESPECIALLY when it is Yinzers losing their minds.

You just are shell shocked from having to infract them when they come here to post.

So many on the crossroads this time that they are running out of room.

See I just disagree that the compete level wasn't there in the losses. It was. We racked up shots, we took dumb penalties. The care was there.

The execution/results were not. Saying the Pens treated those losses like they were exhibition games is just not accurate in my mind.

I'm talking about the Flyers not the Penguins. The Flyers compete level was garbage in their losses. Maybe I wrote "Penguins" instead somewhere.

 

[RizzleMcRib]

Josi at 4 mil though. what a steal.

I think him and Klingberg are the 2 biggest steals as far as defensemen go.

Sorry, I guess I misread what you wrote then. Mondays, man.

Yes I would absolutely agree that the Flyers compete level in the losses was horrid. That team wilted under pressure against us all year. What a difference in mentality they have from Lavy to Hakstol.

I think we'd have beat them with Lavy as coach too but you better believe Lavy would have made it awfully hard on us and his teams wouldn't roll over and quit.

Hedman at 7.8M. He's worth 10+. Best Dman in the league.

 

[TNT87]

Did Giroux come out and say that he was a no show for the series because of the broken wrists suffered from Crosby's slashes? Just wondering.

 

[SUBdrewgANS]

This is the only segment I've seen for this show.. I don't know what else they do, but I feel like based on these video's the guy on the left is a bit irrelevant.. he doesn't really add much to this segment.. Perhaps he's better and more involved in other segments.

That's true

 

[Clare2904]

They need that contract to overpay Subban

 

[Clare2904]

You woke us up

 

[Peat]

You’re confirming my point right?

Personally, nope. To me that indicates its not special teams giving him his high ice time and it points to his ice time being reduceable... if the other pairings are good enough to take on the added ES ice time.

This is a 100% jackpot. Couple things I noticed from the trash talk:

- Guentzel was so badly under the skin of Giroux.

- Jake is a great chirper. It's not about being a tough guy. It's about saying the thing the other person isn't expecting. Jake did it perfectly. Tough guys are pointless. The right jeer will keep them seething forever.

- The Pens bench really did rally behind Kessel attacking Giroux. Kudos to Kessel.

- And kudos to Giroux. Girioux and Gudas should have part of their salaries paid by the Penguins because they helped us so much. Those idiots.

He sounds like a 13 year old, in tone and these whooooooos! Love the enthusiasm.

When asked about the minuses on his game log: "those are from Crosby".

Holy shit, what a troll.

Dude has some decent chirps, but boy it's hard to take them seriously with his 10 year old sounding voice

Jake counting the goals is sooooo f***ing annoying.

Loved it.

Kinda what I was thinking as well. But I wonder something. I wonder if we get by the next round if Kucherov or Stamkos or some such player will ''wake him up''. I wonder what the difference would be in facing Hedman instead of Gudas. I wonder about that.

 

[pokey10]

Weird stat of the day.

Guentzel was a +5. No other forward was more than a +1. How does that happen?

Being in the box / mid line change, etc

Oh, you haven't head Johnny Hockey talk yet. lol.

 

[Vyruz Reaper]

He

Letang is one of the best blueliners to ever play for this franchise. People sadly won't realize it until he is gone. Thought they would have learned that lesson last season when the Pens got shelled most of the playoffs and their transition game was ass, but guess not.

Malkin makes just as many boneheaded turnovers and takes as many bad, selfish, hotheaded penalties.

That's who they are and both can play disciplined hockey when they want, but it goes agt their nature and hotheaded temperaments.

He eats up a lot of ice time. There aren't a lot of blue liners that can do that

Ugh, Just of recent history, I can recall our own kind bashing Gonch to high hell. When he left - so did our powerplay (minus 2013 and 2018) and the majority of a transition game.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Speaking of the Pens trolling.

Penguins GM seethes over Flyers fans’ conduct

“There were frustrated fans,” Rutherford said in an interview with the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette on Monday. “They decided to waste their money and throw some things on the ice that they had already spent money on. I guess some of them have more money than brains.”

Kinda what I was thinking as well. But I wonder something. I wonder if we get by the next round if Kucherov or Stamkos or some such player will ''wake him up''. I wonder what the difference would be in facing Hedman instead of Gudas. I wonder about that.

Yeah, if only Guentzel had a highly successful cup run under his belt while being on Crosby's line. Then we'd know if elite players could "wake him up" but what can you do?
