Post-Game Talk: |Pens vs Preds| Win | And back to your regularly scheduled TDL Viewing

[The Grim Reaper]

Crosby win the faceoff cleanly to Letang, he completely ignores it to attempt to check someone with 15 seconds left. I was so mind blown.

He’s always been our special child.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

It was entertaining hockey for sure game, but I want them to at least try to get past the 1rst round of the playoffs. I kind of doubt that happens without trades. Not a promise with trades either..

Just making the playoffs is an incredible feat. We shouldn't be so angry if it doesn't last as long.

The ignore button is free

I am incredibly offended.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

I think Calgary should sign Gaudreau, wear #13. Just so my mate @Zirakzigil can get more usage of his jersey.

LOL

 

[AlphaMikeFoxtrots]

Now that we got that pesky game out of the way, we can go back to talking about the trade deadline. Cause that’s the importanter thing.

Zucker, the hero we don’t deserve. Boeser doesn’t have half the heart he does.

My main takeaway from this game is I wish Zucker nothing but good things for the rest of his life.

Zucker goals are happy goals.

Yeah that was insane

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

You find that acceptable for the role he plays?

Let’s not get into it, he’s definitely had a down season compared to his last three, but he’s always been streaky. It’s just that you said something like he’s fallen off the most of any player in recent memory.

 

[Extra Texture]

Rusty with the empty net goal of the year, sick shit.

That was truly amazing. From the camera angle he barely got anything on it, and the puck just seemed to float in the air before wafting in.

Yep... it is a long hard grind and I always say NHL players are the best athletes... probably bias..

 

[Gurglesons]

Ugh what if we make the playoffs

As I’ve been saying forever. They’ll handle Carolina or Boston well and then get their doors blown off in R2

Well, he has, the only comparable I can think of is Neal.

true shocker

 

[Ugene Magic]

People are getting perturbed.

Dumo?

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Dumo?

Got me.

 

[Ugene Magic]

What if they get out of the wildcard position?

 

[Pens1566]

So DOC is growing on me.

 

[PensandCaps]

Isles lose

Didn't realize Gus is some vezina goalie. stopped 40 Tonight. That Brassard trade is looking even worse.

 

[vodeni]

I am glad that Sid and Rakell had an inspiring game, thats great, if we get consistent good games from Sid and Geno, plus fourthe line and play like Jarry, we should be OK, good for making play offs not much more

LOL

I never had his jersey, my flames jersey is blank. Been buying them on clearance for my nieces and nephews birthdays though. $40 isn’t a bad price for a jersey. Almost bought a Flames black flaming C one though. Wanted Backlund on it and they didn’t have any customs left. Just blanks.

I can see Carolina, but not Boston. What’s your reasoning?

 

[CascadiaPenguin]

This team will do just enough to make the playoffs this season; and it's the worst possible scenario for any true fan of the franchise.

Pretty sure I can do the Pepsi Challenge "true fan" test, regardless of how little I know about hockey. I know this- we make it as WC 1 or 2 and win our first round series, it will be the greatest Penguins playoff upset in history. What "true fan" would not f***ing dig that?!?

 

[ZorkEnchanter]

I can see Carolina, but not Boston. What’s your reasoning?

Hurricanes are 4-0 in their matchups and Boston was 2-0? I guess maybe the underdog role plays in but I don't think we are going far in the Playoffs at all.

 

[Ugene Magic]

 

[Gurglesons]

I can see Carolina, but not Boston. What’s your reasoning?

Because this team loves getting our hopes up and then crushing them.

HF Pens: "The season's over. Sell for next year."

I don’t want to downplay war, trauma, ptsd, etc… but watching this era of Pittsburgh Penguins Ice Hockey come to an end weaker than the stream of an 82 year old with an enlarged prostate has sometimes made me consider laying siege to a small PNW town
