great team effort. they worked hard to get zatkoff his first win .. and he gets a shuts off. Well done boys.

no complaint about how they played.

 

[IcedCapp]

So I have a confession: I have the flu, and i had this inception-like dream last night, where, for about 12 hours, I kept having a dream that Crosby took a hit to the head and ended his career tonight. Every time I would try to wake up, it would just be in to a different dream where I would confirm the news that Crosby's career was over.

Needless to say, I WAS ON PINS AND NEEDLES for this one. Glad to know I'm not prescient.

 

[Killahpunk]

Nice effort from Zatkoff and Engelland tonight.

 

[sanitysrequiem]

Watched the last period, Crosby looks absolutely lifeless - what's up with that? Hope nothing's wrong with him? Like most of us were saying even when he had 2 points/game, he didn't look as dominant as 2010/11 but he has looked really bad the last few games.

 

[Ogrezilla]

+ Engo as a forward
+ Bortuzzo and Maatta are not playing like rookies
+ Zatkoff
+ Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[Frederick Stanley]

great day for Zatkoff.

I'm still not sure if he has a future in the NHL, but today he should just enjoy it.

Well, out goalies play good against Columbus. Let's try to engineer a first round match up against them

 

[Al Smith]

+ Anyone who bet on the Zatkoff/Emery shutout exacta

Good for Zatkoff. Team blew his chance to win against Isles and played quite well in front of him in the third.

 

[Captain Hook]

Congrats to Zatkoff. Hell of a way to get your first win.

I still think the Pens have something in Engelland as a forward. He kind of reminds me of Asham when Asham was still good.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Oh, I must say it has to be pretty hard to take how close these two teams are for Columbus. It's like a Penguin home game. I feel for you guys.

+Zatkoff


- Pretty boring tonight, but I think this is due to the score, and the fact Columbus couldn't. I Hope things turn for the better there sooner rather than later.

Man, I'm not seeing that at all. Definitely has more life than dead-legs Malkin.

Just kidding, both of them look fine IMO.

You need serious help, like not even Fleury's psychiatrist could help type of help.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

It's good to know that they figured out how to play in front of Zatkoff, actually trying and complete insulation.

+ Did they actually adapt for this game?
+ Zatkoff, it feels good considering what they did to him last time.
+ Engelland as a forward.
+ Maatta and Bortuzzo.
+ Martin
+ Jokinen taking the EN goal.
+ Letang getting up
+ Comeau

- PP
- Niskanen's stupid pass

Engo is a better forward than Glass.

#ShinyNewToy

(But seriously, I like Engelland better than Glass. For all the **** I give Bylsma - and he deserves all of it - moving Engo to forward has been a great decision.)

 

[mpp9]

I'd re-sign Engelland over Glass quite easily.

No, as anachronistic and misplaced in your world as Patton was at the end of WWII.

I like that comparison, CH. I think we'll have to curb anything we take from these two games against, Columbus.

Well, at the time, it was either that OR dress Jeffrey
