Post-Game Talk: |Pens vs Panther | OT win | We are so very special. Our special teams giveth and taketh away

[TNT87]

That was one hell of a roller coaster ride.

 

[vodeni]

Better zone time than he's had in a while. 63% xgoals 5v5 tonight if you care for such things.

I don't think he was great but it was much more solid than he has been

and I said that, actually that has been the case last few games, but do you feel here is a chance when you see him or Blueger carying that puck into the zone...I think if you put a decent pivot between him and McGinn you would probably see the difference...they need to play him like Tampa is playing Perry, just get him around the net and have McGinn and X zooming around...

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

That was stressful

Armchair psychoanalysis says they absolutely would refuse to lose this one, *especially* once Tanger scored his first. Glad they won, and happy for him, but whew.

 

[The GM]

Nice sticktoittudness by the boys

 

[Deport Ogie]

Perhaps I'm being cynical but it's possible the reason CDS can barely outduel a 3rd string slash AHL goalie is because that's where he should be as well?

But all that aside a big hell yeah for Letang. Man deserved a game like that.

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

Good thing we have been dead for awhile now

May they be afflicted with indigestion.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Come on @Zirakzigil i know you hate Letang but he deserves the thread title after coming back from what he did to do what he did in this game

I dont hate Letang. I hate his dumbass decision making. Letangs talent and Sids brain, he'd be one of the best defensemen in the history of the game.

 

[Hank Plank]

Some of you are way too negative especially after a win we only need to shore up defense and goaltending. And get a different coach.

Sid makes his fair share of brainless plays as well if we're being totally honest

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

hard not to hate CDS playing like an amateur.

He cannot get off this team fast enough.

 

[Andy99]

I know there were some complaints about POJ’s game but he lead in CF and had the best shot differential tonight (12-3). Also had a scoring chance differential of 7-3.

Plays under 10 minutes 5 on 5 thanks to Sullivan…L4 only getting 10 min too despite a strong night

 

[Zirakzigil]

True, but the number is significantly less. Sid is also less likely to take a stupid retaliation penalty.

 

[Night Shift]

Problem with the last point is we have to lose to get a new coach

 

[Pancakes]

Jake really sucked tonight. Did not like his game at all.

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

I don't think that's happening this season.

 

[Pancakes]

Desmith gave up two goals tonight where he somehow ended up not in his net at all. The maf special

 

[Hank Plank]

Problem with the last point is we have to lose to get a new coach

We're screwed.

 

[reino]

They tried to throw game away desperately but couldn't because FLA is that bad LOL

 

[Nordekes]

At this point I would trust Van Damme as Darren McCord to make a big save over DeSmith

Hell, have Hexy put the pads on

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Game was fun to watch. Couldn't give a f*** less about the win/loss. More of that, please.

 

[Zirakzigil]

NHL frowns when we double dip like that. Player/owner (Mario), player/coach(Sid) and now player/GM??

 

[Deport Ogie]

Perhaps Florida would like a slightly used Brian Dumoulin to help shore up those GA numbers.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Everybody playing 20-25 minutes a night makes a shitload of braindead plays throughout the season. That's hockey, it's chaotic.

[SomeDude]

Happy for Letang.

No need to talk in the 3rd person.
