Discuss the farce.

When words won't do . . .

 

[MeticulouslyDishevel]

I can't believe I stayed up until 1:00 am to watch this.

- MJ: Your indefensible line-ups handcuff the team from puck drop.

This is the biggest problem with the team right now. Most of the rest of the poor performances can be seen as a trickle down from the idiocy at the top.

+Beau didn't lose any board battles

Neither did most of the Pens, who never got to the boards to battle.

These debacles are becoming common. WASH, NASH and Van in the last couple of weeks. Combined scores 13-0.

Bring on the Las Vegas Penguins.

 

[Michael8771*]

I know Greiss didn't get much help but honestly, he's much worse than I anticipated.


And oh yeah, MJ SUCKS!

Bull, players played like **** regardless of lineup decisions.

I wish this kind of game didn't come at end end of a 2 game west coast win streak. You know it's just going to be chalked up to fatigue.

 

[Callista Rhian]

--- for everyone. no redeeming qualities
----------- **** you refs

It's looking like another long Cup drought

 

[MtlPenFan]

In before all the "PENS GET FRUSTRATED TOO EASILY AND WERE ACTING LIKE BABIES WE SHOULD BE EMBARRASSED!!!" nonsense.

Everyone knows what my deal here is. The gripes I have with certain players and certain roster moves whether it's from the FO or the coaching staff. I'm not a pessimist by nature, which means when I pick on this team, it's not for fun or to try to prove I'm smart. I just go by what I see, and it breaks my heart to say that what I see isn't good.

However, one thing I won't agree with for tonight is the Pens supposedly acting like babies. They deserved to lose this game, but this was a **** show of officiating and it basically looked like open contempt against the Pens from the second the first puck was dropped.

Pens had every right to retaliate and get their pound of flesh when the Canucks were getting away with about 10X more than the Pens were allowed to. You have guys getting tackled from behind, punched in the mouth and slew footed 2 feet from the refs, then their arms lifting 2 seconds later when a Penguin had the audacity to hit back.

Honestly, **** off with that ****.

They did, but the lineup puts them behind the 8 ball before the puck drops

If MJ uses this to justify his decisions I swear I'll fly down to Pittsburgh and bash him with a 2x4

 

[Michael8771*]

I don't understand how the pens braintrust doesn't step in with such an inept coach. How can mario just sit back when his two generational talents are being wasted!

All of the lines were compromised due to poor line-up decisions.

Kunitz should not be on the 1st line.
Perron should be on the LW.
Hornqvist should be with Crosby, not Malkin.
Bennett should be playing, and on Malkin's RW.
Farnham should be playing in place of Adams.

And Sutter shouldn't even be on the 3rd line as things stand.

What lineup changes do you want him to make? They 3 guys who were out today suck also.

We need a new coach. He's awful.

Agree with all of this. Doubt things change much though.
