Post-Game Talk: Pens/Devils - Solidifying that top 10 pick

[Turin]

Glad I’m at work for this one. 5-2 again? Are they even trying?

They were until they went down a goal, then the bottom fell out as per usual.

Yes, that’s the scary part…Sullivan hockey at its finest

When Puusi throws the hardest hit on a forecheck, you know your team has fundamental problems that lead up to the Head Coach and to the Front Office.

You're Accari, why exactly are you here?

FIRE SULLY...............

Dubas should be on notice

From the GDT:

Jarry sitting at a .900 in the first 9 minutes.

I mean can we wait till the game ends before we decide to blame him?

....... No

I'm not trying to personally attack you

But this floppy ass catfish finished with .868 while letting in some real bad ones

As a $5mil "starter" in this league... This shit happens a f***TON with Jarry

That shit with him literally facing the wrong way 15 feet out of the net tonight... I swear, if NJD scored on that, i would have sat him the rest of the season

It's MAF all over again. How many one in a million stupid goals happened to that guy? It's insane. He literally gave the Caps a Cup by sitting on the puck for an own goal.

Interview with Jake Guentzel now after another Carolina win, he was asked what is making that team so good and succesful. He said, "there is obviously a lot of good players and this team is so well coached." Don´t remember him saying that in his eight Penguins years once. He is loving it in Carolina already.

Obviously that's a shot towards MS. But I'm sure no one in the Pittsburgh media will bring it up!

Genuinely curious; I wonder what Jarry's stats look like from Valentine's day through the end of the season each year he's been a full time NHLer. I feel like right around February every single season he just craters without fail.

too busy asking Coach about how that penalty was the sole reason we lost the game and basically the whole season

I posted this in the GDT…

Before February 1st, Jarry is 13-14-4, 2.53GAA, .913SV% (Ned 8-3-3, 2.60 GAA, .916SV%)
Since February 1st, Jarry is 6-8-1, 3.32 GAA, .893 SV% (Ned 2-3, 3.73 GAA, .868 SV%)

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

3 point game tonight for Guentzal. Seems like Jarvis is an adequate replacement for Crosby, who may not even finish the season at ppg

Honestly think he helped Crosby more than the other way around this year.

Btw Carolina is such a machine - watching them control the game is a work of art. After the Jake trade fully on board with rooting for them in the playoffs.

Yeah, that feels about right. Also feels like it happens every year, too, but that might be recency bias.

No, it’s literally happened every year of his NHL career except one lol

 

[the penitent]

No doubt that Jarry hasn't been good for much of the last month. However, let's forget how
TERRIBLE his defense has been. When you have a turnover machine (Letang), a statue (Karlsson) and a tipped over statue (Graves) in front of you, along with a defensive system drawn up by a deranged monkey, the stats are going to suffer.

They're both cratering, but one does it while being paid for consistency

That's been all year, though...this has been five years in a row that he slips right when we need him most

 

[Andy99]

Lol…

 

[SEALBound]

1.7% chance that the pick is automatically transferred to SJS

 

[Andy99]

Well maybe change how you defend because your players can’t do it the way you want lol…

 

[the penitent]

That's still too high. We need to get Harkins back in and put him on Crosby's line. Also make sure that Malkin, Letang and Karlsson are all on the power play together. And elevate Graves to the top line and play him 25 minutes per game. That should do it.

Sullivan change his system and stick to it?

Harkins, Crosby and Carter

 

[BusinessGoose]

f*** defending at this point, that's some mike sullivan "I'm a grinder only" shit. Our goalies can't pull off 1-0 wins right now

Score more goals

2 against NJD is sad

What happened the last couple games where our dumb ass depth scoring did anything? Oh... Wins.. Crazy

 

[Jacob]

Acciari is downright gentle and Ludvig is no longer doing the seek-and-destroy hits, and it’s because of Reirden. Petry said Reirden didn’t want them stepping up in the neutral zone for big hits.

And Sullivan and Dubas won’t object for their own reasons.

 

[Gurglesons]

Yeah, that feels about right. Also feels like it happens every year, too, but that might be recency bias.

Nah this is something I've been saying to all the Jarry defenders for awhile.

Dude sucks.

 

[GilbertSeinfeld]

Thank you Mud Boonshine for towing the company line.

 

[ZorkEnchanter]

We are still in this am-i-rite?

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I don't want Sully fired because it's gonna fix this. I want him fired because he is a guy who hasn't done a good job for half a decade, and I can't stand his face or his bootlickers like Yohe and Kingerski.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Didn’t even have to watch this shitfest to know the result.

Trade em’ all. At this point who gives a f***
