[mikethelegacy]

Let's hope they play. Cause they were awful without yesterday.

The game's over already???

 

[Old Gregg]

I saw someone post that Crosby showed up at his normal time before today's game so that may be good news.

 

[Rectify]

+ Steigy and Errey didn't talk the entire game

- The team looked completely disinterested, it was like they weren't even there

 

[BHD]

I was going to suggest no Crosby or Malkin would leave NBC with nothing to talk about, but they could still go on about the Wings being a model franchise.

 

[Beauner]

Unleash on the popcorn bowl in the press box, maybe.

 

[Wolf Without a Howl]

Malkin out, Sid a game time decision.

 

[Lomez]

I fully expect BB to pick up the offensive slack due to 87 and 71's absence.

 

[Shockmaster]

Huh? Did we miss the game already?

Those are my sentiments, exactly.
The reality is, however, that both teams failed to show up. The game was practically unwatchable in that sense.

All in good fun!

Hopefully Malkin only misses this game, I don't think it will be too serious. Crosby plays today, end of story.

If I were the Broons, I'd be concerned that Pittsburgh's entire game plan went to hell in less than two minutes. And if it weren't for some unlucky bounces and Kunitz breaking a hip on the way to an open net, they could have easily lost.

I didn't know where to put this, but I was looking at some of the marketing the Pens have sent to me recently and something dawned on me. The Penguins currently are being run by soccer moms and or the same mentality? I can tell you this, their marketing doesn't appeal to me. And now it makes sense that this attitude has filtered down to the type of team they have put on the ice.

Maybe the Pens are smart appealing to the next sissified generation. But they have slowly lost me, to the point where I paid for season package for the 10th year in a row, but have watched the least amount of games since becoming a fan.

 

[chethejet]

When healthy the Pens with their stars playing well can beat anyone. Unfortunately without them the Pens are very ordinary. The concept that take any team and remove it's two best players is just not the case. We are looking at a game that the Pens had to adjust and for the most part played a game that was physical and kept Boston to one EVG. Kunitz missed a open net bunny with a great pass from Sutter and that folks is where the drop off is.

I've got the "Multiplicity Effect" going on. Not the Steve in the movie correlation, that's just a bonus.

If they aren't appealing to someone who uses the word "sissified" they're probably doing something right.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Makes sense with no Malkin.

 

[systemsgo]

I wonder if Ebbett shouldn't replace Adams anyway.

I agree, but I don't think giving that guy attention is a good thing.

 

[Joejosh999]

Erm...have I missed a GDT?....

 

[Waffle Fries]

Lol at "tentative"

 

[Asuna]

He should.

 

[wej20]

I'd glad we're playing Bennett out of position so Adams can play his correct position.
