Jarry is a damn conundrum lol

 

[WickedWrister]

Jarry empty net vulture

 

[ThosePuckingPenguins]

I don’t know if this year’s team is better than last but I do know they don’t win a game like that last year.

 

[Rudy Russo]

Great win being down by two goals, and outshot in the 1st period. Huge plus for Jarry and his first career goal, and for DOC and Carter with their goals tonight. Now go SWEEP both back to back games against the Cryers.

 

[Pancakes]

That has the feel of a game that could turn around the entire season.

Or maybe this team comes out and takes a shit on the ice the next one. I guess we'll see

 

[TKalltheTime]

Please let this all be a season changing victory?!

 

[StaalForOne]

That RULED

 

[SEALBound]

Jarry and Carter have the same number of goals this year. Jarry in less games.

 

[Jacob]

That was so hilarious. Wonder how many goalie goals were scored with only a 1 goal lead.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

This team is just stupid. We know they can play like that, which is why when they don't I get so pissed off.

TJ is a f***ign stud. Where are all the losers who like to mitch about him in GDTs and not show up when the Pens win?

Only other minus is Geno missing that ENG, need to pad the stats.

 

[metalan2]

Unreal. And the goal was a big goal too lol

 

[SomeDude]

Title should be How Jarry got his groove back

 

[canadianguy77]

Hard to get a bead on this team. I was ready to write them off down 2-0 and getting severely outplayed.

 

[Headshot77]

Jarry > Malkin confirmed.

Also, Carter's goal was low-key sick as f***. He sold pass the entire way, then ripped a quick shot while his entire body was contorted the wrong way. I am very impressed.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

0 question who the first star was tonight

 

[Kristopher Letang]

Let’s f***ing go!

 

[Jacob]

Ludvig had a very sturdy game. Didn’t look out of place with Letang at all.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

So serious question. Especially given the uncalled pick in OT the last game that led to the game winning goal.

Why does a team with so many skill players have the fewest power play chances in the NHL?

Here’s a Penguins Power-Play Problem That’s Easy to Overlook

NASHVILLE, Tenn. — The Pittsburgh Penguins devoted the final segment of their 35-minute practice at Bridgestone Arena Wednesday afternoon to getting their power play in order. Which was pretty much to be expected. After all, when a team is in a 0-for-20 slump with the man-advantage over an...

They looked so outmatched in that first. Great job the rest of the way.

DOC with a huge late 2nd period goal. Carter contributed.

What a game by Jarry. He kept the team in it after that onslaught first period and then caps it off with the empty net goal. Keep it going.

 

[HuskerTornado]

Jarry has more goals than Rakell. Lol

--and yes, I know he's been out, but still, played 17 games before the injury.

 

[SomeOldDude]

Huge gutsy win. Four unanswered goals, Jeff f***ing Carter scored? lol And Jarry was stellar the whole game the ENG was icing on the cake.

 

[tom_servo]

Pivotal game I hope. Could've been the most demoralizing yet, but they salvaged it.

Jarry has had a nice little stretch here.

 

[EliteGoaltending]

That has the feel of a game that could turn around the entire season.

Or maybe this team comes out and takes a shit on the ice the next one. I guess we'll see

Nothing will change till Sullivan is here. But at least this win will boost their moral a bit, they were trying really hard in the 3rd and Jarry' scoring was cherry on top. They all looked so happy

 

[WickedWrister]

Jarry's 2nd career goal (one in AHL), Ned has 3 in the minor leagues? Gotta be the most career goals for a goaltending unit in quite some time lol
