Sid having more even strength goals than 66 blows my mind.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

Sid is great.

Now trade Ned and Smith when their value is high and before they get hurt.

 

[Rudy Russo]

Start of Jagr watch. Sid amazing thirty plus goal season again. + Ned, Dragon with two assists, first win in Chicago for the penguins in a while. Looking forward to Sunday.

Pens finally found a team they can beat.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

That was the first time the Pens scored four goals in a game in over a month.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

I suppose that beating a minor league team is better than losing to one.

Yay.

 

[Dessloch]

MINUS - Rakell for taking a stupid penalty instead of trying to set up Sid for the hattrick with empty net situation coming up had he just let Bedard skate up the ice! I could give shit about risking losing a 3-1 lead, I´ll take that risk any day to give Sid a chance at a hatty and one stop closer to 50 goals!

+++Sid

-----Puljujarvi is a total stiff out there. Unskilled and uncoordinated. Wow.

there aren’t many but Sullivan is “redefining winning”….as long as they play with a defensive conscience who cares if they score goals…lol

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Jake was the problem the whole time!!!

 

[Bowski]

+ Ned. It's awesome to have a non-spaz backup step up almost every time.
+ Sid, it doesn't matter what...

-Malkin the exuseless (put a rookie Fin on his wing now!)

 

[wheelz87]

Sids absolutely incredible. Not breaking news but man he was everywhere,

 

[Andy99]

I’d like to know when Geno will get off the milk carton…maybe Jagr commemoration will inspire him…

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Random question—anybody watching on the ESPN app have the stream jump back a half sec or a couple seconds fairly often? That happened to me all night.

 

[Andy99]

All the better for the tank job…brilliant move by Dubas to get us higher lottery picks…

 

[Gurglesons]

Start a streak.

 

[BusinessGoose]

Win one for the Jaker

Well, in a lot more games though, right?

Win one for the Jaker

Then trade him.

What's a realistic bar?
Let's say 95 points. Need 40 out of the 62 remaining, in that case.
.645 hockey. Something like 18-9-4.

Need to do that without Jake for roughly 14 of those 31 games.
This is a very tall order indeed.

I believe that ship has sailed, I'm just hoping we get good return on Jake, Smith and possibly NEJ and MP.

Graves was horrible again. He’s just so lost in his coverage.

Geno was aight, at least created some chances offensively.

Sid was +++

Rakell had his best game of the year.

Yeah that’s not realistic but I will say if the Wings score holds up tonight, we’re back within 5 points of WC2…I doubt it will last over the next couple weeks but its a positive development…we don’t just need more points, we’re at the point where teams above us have to startlosing at a higher rate lol

That ship sailed before the season started.
