GDT: Pens vs. Nucks|December 4, 2014 @ CEC

[SHOOTANDSCORE]

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times

 

[Pancakes]

Have to give the Canucks a bit of credit tonight too. They've smothered every single thing we've tried.

1 goal in the last 2 games... time to pursue a move

And their goalie has made some good saves... also Sutter is snakebit

The Shero era is the gift that keeps on giving. Amazing when you look at our forward group minus the guys he inherited look like a average AHL squad.

JR chose to go into the season by exacerbating that situation. For as much as I appreciate his talk, the evidence so far doesn't match the talk.

 

[ColePens]

Watching no profit from all these drafted d-men has me saying.... get rid of everyone on defense and keep: Letang, Maatta, Despres, and fill in the rest w/ who we drafted for cheap. Take all the other money and put it towards wingers. We need 'em.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Steigy with another shot at the Pens.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times

Blurst of times!

Tonight is why you trade Paul Martin, and there's no shortage of suitors, that's for sure.

"Stupid monkey!"

Forsberg with 2 more points tonight. But damn that PP in WBS is ****ing awesome!

It's like 2 months into the season...

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

No-look passes behind you to nobody are the cat's ass, guys.

 

[pensfan71]

Tonight is why you trade Paul Martin.

Tonight is why we make moves in general...

 

[66-30-33]

Told you guys in second period this felt like a game we won't get a goal, yup 3-0 final most likely.

 

[TheSniper26]

I know it's still relatively early but the Ehrhoff/Downie signings just both look like mistakes to me. Neither guy is really making any kind of tangible impact(other than Downie putting us on the PK frequently). I'd love to be proven wrong though.

 

[KIRK]

It's 6 months into the JR regime.

 

[madinsomniac]

Well that happened... good job Canucks... Maybe the baby Pens can bother to show up next game

I wasn't a fan of the Hoff signing....the Downie signing sucks right now...

Just don't get your hopes up on getting anything other than a vet winger in return. Martin is an impending UFA and old. Teams would value him, but not to the point that they'd give us what we really need which is a young gun.

Maybe he could be packaged with a prospect for something worthwhile. Maybe.

 

[OilerPensfan97]

I hate losing to the Canucks...

Downie hasn't put us on the pk in 6 straight games and has played some very solid hockey.

 

[madinsomniac]

Absolutely... In fact I think Vancouver would be interested and they have wingers to spare

 

[Speaking Moistly]

No it's not. Tonight is why you realize that our team needs an exorcism and that they're probably playing with fire with Martin being healthy.

I guess I should start posting here on the pens board sometimes atleast. So far I've only been posting on hf if dead bored .

But I'm a pens fan from Finland, been watching like 75% of the games since 2011.

Frustrating game tonight but at least pens got chances. But they made it a pretty easy shutout for Lack, no finish.. At least Malkin was all over the ice. Crosby mostly quiet tonight. But obiously hard for them to create offense with NO top six wingers tonight
