Pre-Game Talk: Pens vs Isles

[eXile59]

Had a PP on a goalie who was fresh in the game and didn't get a shot but yeah blame Kessel for having his shot blocked.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Kessel played well today, but because he didn't score 3 goals, I guess he sucks.

I've never really criticized Phil, and I think a lot of people overreact to things involving him. He played well. But he needs to score on that last play. There's no excuse for that, and I'd say it regardless of who was in that spot.

 

[Will Hunting]

Kessel is just so snake bit.

Not snake bit. Just bad. It was a terrible shot. All he had to do was to elevate it a bit.

 

[Human]

the only good thing about Phil Kessel is that he still has value. **** him, and his ****** brain. I'm done with having patience with him...

 

[JakeNBake59]

Done with Kessel. i've done a complete 180 on this guy.

joining you on that... he HAS to score that for the salary he is being paid

 

[Gold Diamond]

Kessel can go die in a fire for all I care - it'll burn for 5 ****ing years.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

seriously kessel **** yourself

 

[SirBrad]

He should be scoring 30-40. He's been a huge disappointment.

He should be 35-40 easily. He's a bust with this team.

He's paid to score goals.

 

[turd]

How dare Kessel not shoot it through someone!!!

Now this, on the other hand, is completely uncalled for.

 

[Extra Texture]

Yeah he did play well, but God damnit it's just so frustrating to see him get these golden chances and not finish.

Granted this one was deflected but christ

 

[metalan2]

Maybe try shooting the puck???


Kessel chokes again, fans on a wide open net he should bury every single time. No purpose for him on the team if he's not gonna finish.


Silver lining Penguins strike again.

 

[thecore]

****in Kessel. He has the highest compete level in this game but can't ****in lift a puck he stops? He's being paid to hit the water bottle with that shot.

 

[Beau Knows]

How dare Kessel not shoot it through someone!!!

He never scores on these opportunities

 

[turd]

He's paid to score goals.

And other people are paid to prevent him from doing so and they did tonight. It happens. Why don't we complain about how awful the special teams were on both sides tonight as that's a legitimate gripe?

 

[Ogrezilla]

He's paid to score goals.

So is geno

Yeah, he definitely needed to score that game. Just like Geno should have scored that game.

The "Kessel sucks" or "I hate Kessel" posts just remind me that for every good posted this forum has, there are 10 bad ones.

 

[Will Hunting]

Snake bit beyond belief.

If kessel played like this every night hed be a 40 goal guy again

That´s not a snake bit. Jesus Christ. Have you seen what he did there with that shot? It wasn´t bad luck. It was him failing miserably in a massive moment.

I don't think you know what fanning is. He definitely should have gone top shelf, but he did get the shot off.

 

[metalan2]

I guess you didn't see the gaping wide open net he had to shoot at. He fanned on the shot and that was the sole reason it was blocked.

 

[Hossa die Waldfee]

Of course he has. It's still even more pathetic how he gets called around here.

 

[pensfansince88]

remember when people thought kessel might get 50 goals

 

[Human]

oh **** off, are there really users in here defending Kessel?

 

[TNT87]

Special teams were a big letdown tonight.
