Post-Game Talk: Rangers 2, Pens 1 (OT) - And So Begins Our Summer of Discontent

[Asuna]

It's going to be a long offseason boys.

 

[bigkam]

Fleury deserved better than these losers.

Lovejoy should be cut later tonight. Worst acquisition in history, and for a guy who will probably be a decent d-man for years to come. JR should be gone based on that trade alone.

 

[SixGoalieSystem]

Just stopping by to thank you for the series. I was very impressed with the way your Pens were able to keep every game of this series close, considering your depleted defense. Fleury was great and I would love Hornqvist on the Rangers. One of my favorite Non-Rangers.

I'll leave you alone now.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Fleury was great.

Hard to win when you only have one line and no dmen who can move the puck. They exceeded my expectations for the playoffs.

Lovejoy was on the ice for 8 of 11 goals against in the series.

Go Ducks.

 

[EVGENIMERLIN]

I can't imagine MGMT sees 4 games scoring 1 goal and think there aren't issues, but then again.....SD for Lovejoy happened

 

[KIRK]

I do not trust this management to make moves we need. That's why I'm sick to my stomach. People won't believe me but the players are there. WE have what we need. We need a couple smart moves and utilizing youth.

I have 0 faith in the organization. It's going to be a long disgusting offseason.

You're far more optimistic than I. Then again, you always have been where this circus is concerned.

 

[Elias Pettersson]

It would have been better if the Pens didn't make the playoffs. Then there would have been changes. Now the management has an excuse to stay course and wait for another early playoff exit next spring.

 

[Gurglesons]

Fleury deserved better than these losers.

Lovejoy should be cut later tonight. Worst acquisition in history, and for a guy who will probably be a decent d-man for years to come. JR should be gone based on that trade alone.

It is ridiculous. Completely ridiculous.

That trade blew up in their faces just like it should have. Complete joke.

 

[sexyllama]

good thing we went all in...

+ that Lovejoy guy is really good at allowing goals!

 

[ColePens]

+++++++++++++++++++++++++ Fleury

Without #29, that is ugly. #29 laid it all out there each game. #29 was the definition of what this team needed. #29 is this team's MVP. I cannot believe I'm writing that.

++ Horny: I loved his season. Definitely the right guy for the job.


Just to throw some positives there.

 

[Night Shift]

I just have a bad gut feeling about this offseason.

I do too. And it's not like they're going to try and make it up for a certain idiotic trade.

 

[Jag68Sid87]

This is PROBABLY nothing, so I will give that disclaimer first, but I was watching the game in french tonight (I can't handle Bob Cole), and the color analyst basically said:

"The first and potentially biggest question surrounding the Penguins this summer will be Kris Letang's career intentions."

Now, I'm pretty sure he was talking out of rear but some of these old analysts around here do have connections with the French Canadian players.

Has anybody heard any talk at all about Letang pondering his future?

 

[Randy Butternubs]

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

The great irony, of course, is that after years of being the #1 reason among players for our playoff failures, Fleury starts playing like a great #1 goaltender and the rest of the team is garbage.

I do not trust this management to make moves we need. That's why I'm sick to my stomach. People won't believe me but the players are there. WE have what we need. We need a couple smart moves and utilizing youth.

I have 0 faith in the organization. It's going to be a long disgusting offseason.

Yup. I really hate being a Pens fan right now. Losing is one thing, but needlessly squandering seasons with a series of stupid decisions is another.

 

[Mischa]

Fleury had an incredible year. couldn't have happened to a nicer guy

 

[#1GuinFan]

I like the look of Dumoulin, he was probably our best puck mover out there from the defensive end.

Look at the bright side, no more Adams.

 

[Jacob]

If Dejan is to believed nothing much will change. We'll chalk it up to injuries and try again next season.

That's honestly less alarming than thinking the idiots in charge are going to do some kind of overhaul.

 

[Zbynek]

Lovejoy on ice for 10/11 Rangers goals - brutal

 

[WayneSid9987]

We held up defensively which was surprising.
But we had one line that was consistently producing.
Nothing else. Notta. Zilch.

Problems are obvious on the roster.
Let's see how we bungle it again this summer.

 

[Winger for Hire]

Rip 2014/15

 

[Night Shift]

good thing we went all in...

+ that Lovejoy guy is really good at allowing goals!

Yeah but He's a Morehouse PR quote machine. You need that element for championships.

 

[Dinfire]

Getting jobbed the first couple games and injuires were just too much to overcome. They played hard, though. That's all you can ask from the players who take the ice.

 

[Asuna]

Positive thoughts - no more Adams

 

[Allie Kitsune]

Horny was one of the best pens all series long. Absolutely love the way he plays and his effort level. Too bad we couldn't clone him

I feel like cup-winning teams have 2 or 3 Horny-esque players.

We had Kunitz , Staal, and Cooke in 2009.

Not to mention Guerin.
