I will continue to blame sully and Dubas for not firing him. That said screw the Bruins. Just folding like that.

It's a tribute to Sullivan that the Bruins didn't ever want to meet him in the playoffs LOL.

Great news - unless a miracle happens, this prolonged agony will end today.
Not so great news - apart from screwing over the Sharks, this late push will probably save Sullisma's job.

Probably Kaprizov, who is at his peak and outscored Sid in goals and points despite playing less games, on a weak team no less.

OR 3-1 lead over CLB, but the collapse at the AVS was brutal, not surprising but brutal. THey squandered a good 10-12 points.

If we’re giving Sid powerplay points, are we giving Kaprizov back his missed games?

Dubas is awesome, blame the core for wanting Sully around and Hextall for the extension. KD came into an almost impossible situation. He has a big mess to clean up because of others. So far so good, but it'll take time.

Playoffs or not, i'm in peace with whatever outcome.
On one hand, It be cool to see another Crosby run in the playoffs, he did great last time and he let me wanting more. And who knows? anything can happen in the playoffs.
On the other hand, this team really sucks and don't deserve to be in the playoffs let's be honest. This has been a shitshow the whole season and it took 36 y/o Crosby to carry his team on his back into the playoffs race. Without Crosby, this is a lottery team. There's too many unsolve problems that haven't been fix, Sullivan being the coach is my main concern and the real reason why this team is at the state that it is right now. Anyway, if they ever make it to the playoffs, they'll probably get smash in 4 or 5 games and we'll be complaining about the same things over and over again.
And of course, nothing will change if they make the playoffs, cause it would be viewed as a huge success in the eyes of the organisation.

I feel the complete opposite. They needed to make the playoffs or completely crater.
Making the playoffs meant Sid and Geno get to accumulate more points (bc this team ain't winning a playoff round)
Cratering might have meant Sully was on the hot seat
So now we get neither...

If they make the playoffs, Sullivan will probably sign the first ever lifetime contract

Way too little, way to f***ing late.
Losers.
Losers.

come and take it.
The Penguins put themselves in this spot and have no one to blame but themselves
They need a lot of help on Tuesday night they might not get.

Buffalo just fired Granato after missing the playoffs again and they only have 4 points fewer than the Pens…wake up Dubas!so you think sullys job was in doubt?
MON probably plays DET hard for their final season home game.
PHI beating WAS is plausible, it would put PHI in a playoff spot (have tiebreaker vs WSH and DET) with a DET loss and PIT loss.
Not all is lost but very unlikely and Pens only have themselves to blame.

Caps win tonight, they eliminate the Flyers, Wings, and Pens.
Caps lose and Red Wings win - Caps, Flyers, and Pens are out.
If both lose, all the Pens have to do is beat the Isles in NY, and they are in.

I keep flashing back to when Lindy Ruff coached the Sabres for a billion years...so you think sullys job was in doubt?

Thank You 59.
Parts of DC and Baltimore are shit holes where you have a real good chance of being shot, I know this since I've lived in Northern VA my whole life.

I am not conflicted at all. Win out. Get in if possible.
Sure, I have a better chance of winning the lottery than the Pens do of winning another Cup.
But that doesn't matter.
It is a cost free chance. The first round pick is gone. And giving up pick 17 rather than pick 13 or 14 is likely a meaningless difference. But still sounds more palatable to me.

Didn't you know that points don't matter in October and November?

Those 2 points could have made things easy for us. We would need 1 point max. Or none if Det/Caps get a loser point. But nooooooo.
