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

[domaug]

I hope Sullivan is ripping them apart right now.

i'd be shocked if he were, tbh. they probably see this as a positive turnout.

 

[Ryder71]

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.

It's amazing the disparity in their performances. Heck even from one period to the next.

 

[Will Hunting]

Would have preferred the penalty carrying into the OT.. Not sure what to say. Stars doing nothing, one point goes down the toilet. They need to learn the lesson. Better to learn the lessons while still picking up some points.. that´s my only positive, I guess. But yeah, it sucks.

 

[MtlPenFan]

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

Someone needs to insulate Letang.

 

[DegenX]

I hope Sullivan is ripping them apart right now.

I have my doubts about how effective that would be. You can yell all you want, but if you don't back it up it gets tuned out right quick.

 

[ColePens]

I hope Sullivan is ripping them apart right now.

I don't think Sully needs to. He should just tell them very bluntly that know what they did. They stopped playing. It's a lesson to learn. Yelling/screaming won't do shit. Let them know and walk out.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

I hope Sullivan is ripping them apart right now.

I hope he saves some of that for himself.

Playoff lines.

Guentzel-Sid-Hornqvist
Hags-Geno-Kessel

[JimmyTwoTimes]

We might have pissed the division away tonight.

Philly and caps fans keep saying this after every loss too.

 

[ColePens]

I have my doubts about how effective that would be. You can yell all you want, but if you don't back it up it gets tuned out right quick.

Damn you. Beat me to it.

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Sheary sucks. He's nowhere near good enough offensively to make up for how abysmal he is without the puck, both in terms of defensive play as well as puck support.

 

[Chuck Norris Trophy]

DeSmith was awful.

Eh, except for that flubber in the OT, he was f***ing great. The game could have easily been 2-6 at the end of 3rd.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

All joking aside the third period sleep walking/collapse bothered me less than the power play. They STILL get too cute and enamored with their skill and should be working on breaking those bad habits of looking for the pretty tap in after fifty two dangerous passes across the middle of the offensive zone.

This is when they should be working on things for the playoffs.

 

[Tom Hanks]

i'd be shocked if he were, tbh. they probably see this as a positive turnout.

You know Sully is our coach now not Bylsma

 

[LOGiK]

 

[Turin]

Sid ain't elevating **** these days.

It’s not hyperbole to call him the laziest 5 on 5 skater on the team many games. He literally gives up on plays, and that’s disturbing to me.

 

[Dey so soff*]

No, they need to win. I believe reality has already sunk in.

Really?

I thought that after the other numerous **** shows that produced this year that it would have sunk in, but along comes another one of these games and it’s clear that it hasn’t...

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Still say Sid should have taken that penalty shot.

Win > Rocket

 

[SirBrad]

Philly and caps fans keep saying this after every loss too.

Yeah whoever a tally wins this division isn't going to really earn it. "Backing into it" is probably the better term.

 

[Ryder71]

Hagelin, Rust and Desmith played well, the rest of the team not so much.

 

[Shaffer]

I don't think Sully needs to. He should just tell them very bluntly that know what they did. They stopped playing. It's a lesson to learn. Yelling/screaming won't do ****. Let them know and walk out.

I'd say something along the lines of "sharpen your skates for next practice."

 

[ncm7772]

Give me Philly anyway. They suuuck. Also, I really don't care who we face. We'll beat them. Aside maybe Tampa and Boston.

Ehhhhhhh, I don't know, man. This team has had enough awful efforts to make me fairly certain there's no guarantee whatsoever they'll win a playoff series.

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

Playoff lines.

Guentzel-Sid-Hornqvist
Hags-Geno-Kessel
Sheary-Brassard-Rust
Simon-Sheahan-Jooris

Not enough sprong in there and too much sheary

 

[GregR]

Still say Sid should have taken that penalty shot.

Win > Rocket

Had to be someone who was on the ice so it was Malkin, Hagelin, Hornqvist or one of the d-men.

 

[domaug]

it's pretty sad when the worst part of a game against the Rags ISN'T NBC's coverage (Susan Sarandon... "oh, oh, oh!")

(and i like Susan Sarandon, but i don't care about her going to the weddings of Rags players 30 years ago)
