GDT: Penguins v Blues - Can You Skate? - 20:00 EST

[Sidney the Kidney]

Good news though! ZAR is back...we are soooo winning tonight!

Maybe ZAR can cough on the Blues' defenders so that by the time the 2nd period starts, they'll all be as sick as dogs.

 

[Andy99]

Is this game on NBC? Is that why there is an 8 PM start?

yes because they force us to watch Roenick and Jones spouting complete BS for an hour beforehand...

with our luck he’ll cough on Geno and Jake instead and they’ll go down with Bubonic Plague...

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

I thought Blandisi got waived or was it someone else?

Nobody waived back

 

[Andy99]

waived, cleared and didn’t even bother to send him back to Wilkes with Penguins dropping like flies...

 

[ChrisKuuuunitz]

so Blandisi should play for his life tonight then

 

[Ginger Papa]

Start or sit Jarry in fantasy?

Talk me into it guys/girls I need the rush

Hey Crackdown44, It's not looking good with all the injuries tonight. The group here is hopeful but not very optimistic. Good luck if you have another option tonight.

Cheers

Sounds like Jarry is in, actually.

Wouldn't start him in fantasy, regardless. This team is absolutely gutted with injuries and Jarry isn't this cavalry that everyone seems to think is gonna ride in and save them all, anyway.

Brain cramp for a moment. I should probably stick to GIF's

Penguins projected lineup
Jake Guentzel -- Evgeni Malkin -- Dominik Simon

Alex Galchenyuk -- Jared McCann -- Stefan Noesen

Dominik Kahun -- Teddy Blueger -- Brandon Tanev

Zach Aston-Reese -- Joseph Blandisi -- Sam Lafferty

Jack Johnson -- Kris Letang

Marcus Pettersson -- John Marino

Juuso Riikola -- Chad Ruhwedel

Matt Murray

Tristan Jarry

Scratched: Zach Trotman

Injured: Sidney Crosby (core muscle surgery), Nick Bjugstad (core muscle surgery), Justin Schultz (lower body), Brian Dumoulin (ankle surgery), Patric Hornqvist (lower body), Bryan Rust (lower body)

I think Rust will be back first. "Day to Day".

Actually looking forward to seeing how the 2nd and 3rd lines do. If Noesen can pickup where he left off in AHL while also being the one to get AG going too. McCann centering them, even better.

And 3rd line, keep Kahun/Tanev with Blueger as long as possible so he can focus more on the offensive side of his game. He was showing it when he first came up last year and was 2C(replacing Geno) but never got thaf chance again.

And keeping him away from ZAR for now....will do wonders. Idk why they dont give ZAR a week or two off since that is the theme this year anyway. Would rather see a 4th line of Agozzino - Lafferty - Johnson right now instead.. Trying to give the team a spark knowing they have to survive Hurricane Injury 2.0 after doing great the first time around and starting to settle in finally. Team was getting points in each game and we saw alot of them putting up solid numbers

 

[Andy99]

yow...just pour it on Bob...

Oh Ugene, sometimes a picture is worth:

f***ing Sully will always pick MM even when he's f***ing losing us games night after night and TJ is one of the best statistical goalie sin the league. Always gotta have a boy and MM is Sully's boy.

Edit: even with TJ starting tonight, MM is still Sully's boy.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

****ing Sully will always pick MM even when he's ****ing losing us games night after night and TJ is one of the best statistical goalie sin the league. Always gotta have a boy and MM is Sully's boy.

Jarry is the starter you absolute maniac.
