Post-Game Talk: Pens beat flyers 7-6

[Trade]

Really fun game to watch. Don’t give a shit about the implications with the coach, I’m thrilled we won.

Sully ain’t getting fired in-season. I’d rather watch winning hockey while Sid is still playing like this.

We ain’t out of it yet

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Did they find Drysdale's arm yet?

 

[Ryder71]

Of course Crosby loses an assits.. can't compile

overrated

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

Nice to get the win, but not exactly the most impressive game there...

Flyers fans must be so tired of Crosby

They, too, keep willing him on with their ire.

+Sid
+Powerplay

-everything else

Carter needs to be scratched for the rest of the year. Plz just give that ice time to a WBS kid.

 

[Andy99]

-first of. was a MUST regulation win. 2 points baby.
-it was weenie hut jr vs super weenie hut jr in net. Thankfully Peterson is god awful.
-how is Marc staal still playing?
-speaking of anchors. Graves absolutely blows.
-if Rust is out long term were cooked. Like officially.

Is Crosby still a top 10 player? Top 5?

No Sid isn’t…he’s still a really good player, top 20 but did anyone watch Kucherov before this game?

Yeah, we are, but it was an entertaining game. Jake is as good as gone, let the sell off begin. Well, in the next 10 days or so. It's over. Start the Bus!

Drysdale lost his arm, guess that cancels it out.

100%! Kuch, Mackinnon, Mathews and McDavid make Sid look ordinary in comparison.

 

[SEALBound]

This was a fun game for a Sunday afternoon in the context of a single game.

But let's be honest, we won this game because Cal Peterson is a pile of shit goalie. The goals Philly scored were "better" than the several garbage shots we took that skipped past Peterson.

While it's good they won, this shouldn't change anything regarding the trade deadline.

eller on ice for 5 goals against...hope this is by accident

In addition to Jake, Smith and Ned, wouldn't mind seeing that bum leave also.

 

[Bowski]

Entertaining Sunday game.

+Sid.
+RCR working while it was healthy.

-Our "starting" goalie seems to have a phobia of the colour orange and cannot properly play against our biggest division rival that we're "chasing" for a PO spot.
-Our HOF 2nd line center is cooked at that position.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

2-0 in the Emil Bemstrom era.

 

[66-30-33]

This team is really gonna go on a little run before the deadline and then completely collapse after huh

If we sell still I am fine with it so the 1st pick can go to SJ.

He has 60 points in 54 games. That's really good, but let's face it, Kucherov is pushing 100 I believe. So, not sure about Hockey God, not now.

Old hockey god. Kuch has 102 now.

lol he’s our shutdown line…just like Carter

So, Sid is 60% the player Kuch is, sounds about right.

Too bad Crosby doesn't have Kuch's linemates and a working PP, probably 20 points higher.

 

[Ryder71]

Rust might be injured.

Selling back on the menu boys???

 

[Ryder71]

Sid was at one time a great player, still very good. Never got over 120 points in a season though. McDavid had 153 points in a season I believe.

Selling back on the menu boys???

Selling was never off the table. Jake is gone. To not trade him would be a fire able offense. Dubas knows better. He'll do the right thing and trade the muppet!

Crosby and McDavid have basically identical era-adjusted stats. People really still haven't realized this is basically a different sport than 2008-2015?

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

+ Sid reminding Philly they are still his bitch
+ PP actually scoring twice and boy they needed those
+ PK even if it was against a somehow worse PP than ours. Philly had a 2 man advantage when they scored their only PP goal.
+ DOC still streaking
+ Graves in the final moments of the game
+ Puusty back on L2 and on PP
+ Harkins KO'ing Drysdale
+ Tanger with no bonehead plays and scored again
+ Bemstrom getting his 1st in his 1st game as a pen
+ Rakell with another good game on Sid's wing... jeez who woulda thought that would work?
+ Beating those assholes never gets old
++ Beating those assholes in regulation

- Jarry with his worst game of the year. He can't play any worse, right?
- Geno is still MIA
- Eller with bad giveaways early and the double minor
- Karlsson....we all knew he can't play a lick of defense
- Smith is just an empty jersey
- Rust injury

Era was different plus he was always injured.
