Post-Game Talk: Pens/Caps Post Game Talk

[ColePens]

+ We dominated. Identical to last Tuesday, we absolutely dominated.

- We have 0 points when we dominated. And we have 1 point in 2 games where we didn't decide to show up at all. Yikes.

Meh

 

[K Fleur]

This team is a meme

 

[canadianguy77]

No Sprong and still the bottom 6 can't score. He sure is a problem.

 

[IcedCapp]

stuff happens

 

[Randy Butternubs]

-incoming Geno suspension
+their play

 

[Empoleon8771]

Damn, Oshie had himself a night. Skated into Malkin with his head down, causing Malkin to brace for contact and get a 5 minute major for head contact, and then scores the GWG after he's magically okay after the head contact. Damn, what a game from him.

I can't wait for Malkin to get suspended too, will definitely make a lot of sense.

 

[Sideline]

This team ain't right. They need a shake up.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

I expected worse than this so I guess I wasn't let down that much. DeSmith played a solid game and Letang was solid...the rest.......

 

[turd]

Just want to remind everyone how badly Rust f***ed up that play on the boards and how much he sucks.

Other than that, they actually played extremely well. Problem is, so did Holtby.

[AverageJoeFan]

Gotta be able to finish. Just didn't happen tonight.

 

[Tom Hanks]

Should have won. Our finishing didn’t help nor the refs.

Sucks it had to be those ****ers

 

[Rudy Russo]

Sully should ride the Desmith train till the wheels come off. I thought the PK was great killing off Malkin major, and overall in general outside of Ovechkin power play goal. Johnson had a nice pass to Sid on his power play goal, and I liked seeing Kessel with Sid. Other than that major disappointment on the second goal late in the game. If they lose at home on Saturday, I won't be shocked if a trade happens.

 

[Coastal Kev]

Until Sully finally plays his best possible lineup with who's available, I will continue to lay blame on his head.


Fire SULKY

Re: Malkin hit.

- Malkin stays in his lane the entire time.
- Oshie swings toward Malkin
- Malkin never lifts elbow.

However.. here is where Pens fans have to be fair. Geno, on the defensive, DID engage and attack as Oshie was coming in. So as @Warm Cookies said - that part was wrong and deserved a penalty. 5 minute? f*** no. It is on Oshie to make that avoidable. That was Geno's lane the entire time. Oshie was engaging Geno. Not the other way around.

 

[TNT87]

Shame they couldn't get it to OT at least with their effort. Sloppy play the last two minutes.

 

[Turin]

Aside from the last minute, I enjoyed the game.

 

[Peat]

Heartbreaker.

The org asked for a response and they got one. Any idea that the room has been completely lost should be buried for the time being.

How we didn't get the result... nervous players not burying chances, great game from Holtby, that bloody post, spending forever on the PK... whatevs.

Over the course of the season this game will be forgotten as long as they take something like that effort into the Arizona game and the games beyond that.

No Sprong and still the bottom 6 can't score. He sure is a problem.

Wilson and ZAR looked 10x better and more noticeable than Sprong has all year.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

"Domination" and no scoring once again. 1 ES goal in the last 4 games.

It's almost like the coach is insisting on a bunch of safe guys who can't score in top 9 roles.

 

[Coach Travis]

- Malkin's a dumb-dumb
+ Oshie coming back probably negated a suspension for Malkin

It was all planned out in advance...

 

[dogthateats]

Wilson looked decent as a 4th liner.
