Post-Game Talk: Penguins 8, Sabres 4 - Doogie Houser Should've Stuck With His Once Promising Medical Career

[KIRK]

And to think the magical cure to the Pens historical struggles with jabroni goalies coming up from the beer league to stone star studded Pens teams was this . . .

What was the bigger shock:

A. Jeff Carter 4 goal game

TRADE HIM FOR SCHUTLZ!

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

Dude. How many close, awful games did we have to play this year against the Bruins and Islanders. Can't we enjoy one of the few times we get stack the stats against a bad team?

Yeah, that's what "Whatevs, take the stats" means.

Happy for Carter and L3. Hope the Top 6 is ready to flip the proverbial switch come PO time.

Now, just win on Saturday and hope some results fall our way so we get home ice.

He will remember this when they renegotiate a new contract the summer and ask him to take a pay cut

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

People thought they were a marginal playoff team to start the season, they have one of the best records in the league, and all that gets said about the coach is talk about how dense he must be.

Not to say the man should be above criticism, but I think people have somewhat unrealisitic expectations.

 

[Tom Hanks]

So how long are you in the NHL for Houser?

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Now, just win in Saturday and hope some results fall our way so we get home ice.

Win Saturday in regulation and home ice is 100%, at least in R1.

Zucker that had two points and multiple good rushes? It might have been his best game with Geno ever?

If McCann - Carter - Gaudreau can get hot and Zucker can at least stay out of the way of Geno and Kap we'll be looking pretty good line-wise.

Sabres - 4
Penguins - 4
Jeff Carter - 4

Game ended in a tie.

 

[Al Smith]

This felt somewhere between an All-star game and early scrimmage in terms of contact. Good for the Pens injury proneness.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Carter to Buffalo

 

[Kristopher Letang]

He will remember this when they renegotiate a new contract the summer and ask him to take a pay cut

I don’t think Letang cares about the money at this point of his career, I bet he’d rather take a pay cut for one last run with his bestfriends.

People are saying that he might go to Montreal but I think he knows that Montreal is a suicide mission for a Quebecois.

 

[JRS91]

It's interesting to see where Blueger fits next season if Carter returns.

Gaudreau in my opinion has been too good to not play at this point, not only that but he and Zohorna should both definitely at the very least be able to battle for a spot next season. I still think Zucker is a good player, he just doesn't fit with this team. I definitely think he should be traded before anyone else.

 

[Fatty McLardy]

Carter was a beast.

I'm still not happy about giving up 4 goals to this awful Buffalo lineup. Top 2 lines are still bleeding goals against, will be ugly against the top team.

 

[66-30-33]

Carter 4
Sabres 4
Pens 4

Jeff f***ing Carter and @HandshakeLine MURPHY DUMPS

A+++++++


Also great coaching to keep Geno getting reps at the end of the game. I thought that was a smart call.
