Post-Game Talk: Rangers 4, Penguins 3 (OT) - Oh, Oh, Oh

[Hockey4Lyfe]

Dear lord can Crosby wake the F**k up? Does this guy even care? Completely sucks on D and coasts on O.

Still waiting for this flip to switch that people are talking about. Don’t know if he knows that these points are pretty important.

Played soooo passive in the 3rd and it came back to bite us. Need to get healthy because this 4th line is dogshit on D.

 

[Dey so soff*]

Way to check out after 40 minutes ****ers! You EARNED that loss!

I’m kinda hoping they lose in Montreal as well and maybe, just MAYBE they will get *****slapped back to reality.

DeSmith played a really good game but then ****s the bed on the OT winner. Figures.

 

[GregR]

Deserved two points. Got one.

LOL they played hard for 55 seconds and thought that was gonna be enough.

 

[ColePens]

Enfuriating.

It's infuriating.

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Bad team elevated by elite players. Plain and simple, really. Top guns surge and we go on a win streak, people forget how laughably bad we are defensively (and have been for a year-plus).

Hopefully these guys wake up and decide to play hockey again soon, it's getting to the time when it really matters. We have the roster to win, but guys just don't wanna do their f***ing jobs.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

f***ing losers. Sid was terrible. Geno didn't even give them a f***ing chance on that penalty shot. f***ing pathetic.

 

[PensandCaps]

DeSmith was awful.

HGH was great.

They looked very good aside from the PP. it happens. Loved how they played today, aside from late period 3. HGH should've had 3 goals tonite.

 

[dig1]

i only caught the last three or so shifts. what a lazy lazy coverage by Kessel. Horrendeous. He was more interested in starting a breakway than actually covering for his teammates and put sheahann in no mans land

 

[Turin]

Why does Sheahan see the ice 3v3 on a team with Crosby, Malkin and Brassard? And why does Sid’s body language look awful again? So many questions.

Also the goaltending just wasn’t good enough again.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

That was a horrible way to lose.
Shouldn’t Letang and Dumo not be paired?

Whatever that happens, Sullivan better not think now is the time to put Hunwick back in.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Pathetic is definitely the word.

Threw the game away with piss-poor focus and zero compete in the 3rd and OT.

Deserved to lose. The Pens are capable of playing like they did against the Stars and then they put up this trash?

 

[ncm7772]

Ugh, don't know if I want to even spend the $ for tickets to tomorrow's game.

 

[BlackAndGold87]

Just hope this team can get out of the first round.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Pretty obvious that the Pens lost because they did not pass enough on the power play.

 

[Ryder71]

As soon as you start believing this team is gonna to gel, THAT happens!

 

[domaug]

lol

there's nothing incorrect about what you're "lol"ing at. the defense was garbage yet again. the stars didn't show up. nobody but DeSmith was very positive tonight and he got outplayed by Gregoosiwhatsis or whatever his name is.

 

[Al Smith]

Special teams lost them the game. PP could have put them away early. PK sucked in the third and let Rags back in it. Lucky to get one point.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Deserved two points. Got one.

I disagree. I think they deserved zero points.

 

[WayneSid9987]

Most damning thing was up by 1, last 3'ish minutes(?) pk and your #1D gets walked. That simply can't happen.
Lucky they got a point.

 

[molon labe]

Silver platter.

Fantastic first 30 minutes followed by disaster.

Sid - after Sheary ruined every single shift he had in the first 30, he mailed it in and looked gross in OT
Kessel on the PP - Why do we still run the puck through his side? One timer or bust, yet we still insist on letting him 'puck handle' which results in turnovers 4/5 times.
Rowney - not an NHL'er and shows every game
Letang - schooled all night

Good game Rangers, we didn't deserve the W and if we pulled that off in OT I would have felt we escaped lucky. Just atrocious hockey by the Pens in the latter half of that game. Hags and Hornqvist as usual just played their games.

 

[imouttahereEdWinger]

- Letang for just watching goals be scored on 2 different PK's
- Sullivan for choosing a Rowney, Sheary, Kuhnhackl line late game with a 1 goal lead
+ HGH
- Sheary in general. Can't stand a guy who can't even stand up

 

[Empoleon8771]

Desmith had a guy wide, WIDE open on the back post. Not surprised he cheated a bit. He was screwed either way.

Plain and simple. Pens stopped playing after 40 min. Would have lost to Arizona with that effort.

Based on how the team was playing in front of him, I don't blame him at all for cheating off that post. Golden chance after golden chance, what the hell was that? Why did the team just utterly shut down with a period to go?

 

[ncm7772]

And I think the most concerning thing to me, other than atrocious team defense, is how this team has been consistently BAD on the road this year.

 

[Andy99]

Just embarrassing third period and OT

People had chances to win this game and didn’t....

—- Letang
—-Sid
—-Sullivan
——the IPad....it wasn’t committed to a 200-foot game or play away from the puck

+ DeSmith, despite the poor goal in OT, I’m giving a + to DeSmith because he kept us in it and deserved better...

 

[ColePens]

Actually agree with this gif. I am not mad. They left after 2. NHL teams make you pay for that. Pens learned (HOPEFULLY) a lesson. I know it's all about chasing a position in the playoffs but playoff positioning does not f***ing matter. It just doesn't.

It happens. Team learns from it. Get back after it. Learn that you have to play 60 minutes. Not 40. Not 50. Not 59. All 60.

 

[domaug]

We might have pissed the division away tonight.

they weren't winning the division IMO. the fact that it's even close is a testament to how bad the rest of the division is.

 

[Human]

this team didn't deserve shit tonight.
