GDT: Preseason Game 6: Sabres @ Penguins - 7:00pm EDT

[EichHart]

That was the most obnoxious thing I've heard listening to a hockey game in a while.

Like, it's AHLers/kids who have never and will never all play significant time together again versus the full lineup of a team with 2 of the last 3 cups. Of f*cking course they're going to get assignments mixed up and look "lost."

Housley is a terrible coach though, that’s a fact.

 

[Royal Thunder]

And our preseason was off to such a good start. Now gonna be 2-5

 

[sabres4ever]

These turds announcing the game for the pens are just ridiculous. You'd swear they just won the cup again

 

[old kummelweck]

Ullmark is not playing well.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Wtf borgen

"Housley is a terrible coach" is most certainly an opinion. It may be an opinion shared by many....but it's still an opinion.

 

[Fearnot]

Ullmark is not playing well.

In playoff form.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Ullmark is not playing well.

Hes getting literally zero support. Id say the only one hes had a chance on is the letang point shot

 

[GellMann]

Housley is a terrible coach though, that’s a fact.

I don't think it's that simple but it's also irrelevant to what I'm complaining about

 

[Slangston]

This team is depressing.

 

[CrazyPsycho]

Its like these guys came into camp fired up to prove people wrong and housley has coached the life right out of them

 

[HaNotsri]

Did Borgen just let Guentzel walk into the middle? Looked like Pilut tried to catch him from behind and then followed him away from the net. And then Borgen just let Brassard score on the rebound.

 

[Myllz]

I agree, but that announcer's tone set me off. It was so, like, arrogant or something. Buddy, it's Taylor goddamn Fedun.

Yep, agree, he was a tool about it.

 

[old kummelweck]

Despite the score, I've liked Nylander and Mittelstadt.

 

[HaNotsri]

"Housley is a terrible coach" is most certainly an opinion. It may be an opinion shared by many....but it's still an opinion.

Maybe we can agree on the fact that Housley is a coach and that the results are terrible?

I'm sure Phil has an Any Given Sunday type motivational speech prepared for the intermission to get the team fired up for the third period.

"I quit."

 

[Sansbacon]

I legit never thought the Pens broadcasting team could get any worse than it was. And the play by play is not really all that bad; it’s the color guy. Jesus Christ, just stop.

 

[Snippit]

I lied and stuck around to watch the 2nd.

As a team we obviously suck this game. But considering this is a lineup of mostly prospects it's more important to see who stands out against an obviously high level of competition.

I think Nylander and TT have done enough to earn spots in the opening night lineup. I also think Bailey has stood out in these last few games.

I'd love to see Nylander on a line with Eichel and Reinhart.

Nylander-Eichel-Reinhart
Skinner-Mitts*-Okposo
Sheary-Berglund-TT
ERod-Sobotka-Bailey

* don't think he's ready but I doubt he's getting sent down

 

[Ralonzo]

"Sabres look lost." If it's so damn easy for everyone to see, why doesn't Housley?

 

[old kummelweck]

I don't think it's bad coaching to put out a lineup like this and see what cream rises to the top.

 

[sabremike]

"Housley is a terrible coach" is most certainly an opinion. It may be an opinion shared by many....but it's still an opinion.

This is not true. A group of leading scientists recently published a paper in a leading scientific journal that conclusively proved that Phil Housley is a terrible coach. Can't argue with science!

Why I never watch Pens games live despite living in Pittsburgh. It's either radio or nothing. Unless it's not being called by their homers.

If you start with pond water and not milk, it's something else that rises to the top.
