GDT: VGK @ Birds aka Flower gets his ring

My girlfriends fault. She says she likes both teams equally and then said "Yay" when the Penguins first scored.

Just get ready for the Thursday game in San Jose (a four point game).

This team did exceptionally well for what is probably the roughest stretch of the year. After San Jose, this team gets seven straight home games to assure a favorable playoff position.

BOOO! Time for a new GF!

Trolling our boards!

Meh, I've done the "accidentally talk shit about the opposition while I was checking out their GDT" move a few times. Sometimes you forget where you are.

There was a point on the first road trip where I was just excited to see the Knights fight back after having a period like tonight's 2nd. The fact that I'm a little bummed out instead of excited they've got some fight just goes to show how huge this season has been.

Can still make it a great road trip with a win in San Jose.

I'll never understand why Gallant doesn't save the Marchesseault line for the empty net chance.

I think Gallant really likes Neal's ability to score and Perron's puck control. Karlsson has the most goals, but a lot of his goals are wide open cross crease goals or uncontested shots in the slot. I like Smith and Marchy more than Karlsson because I feel that wild Bill has racked up mostly easy goals and the other two linemates have had to work harder or shown more skill in their goals. Karlsson could also be a better face off man and passer. To gain the zone there is no doubt I want the wild Bill line in late to gain entry and possess the puck and if they can't score, turn it over to the haula line for the final assault.

Just way too many mistakes in this one. PK was on point though.

We left flower exposed on bad turnovers too many times.

3-2 on road trip so far

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

The Pens are the Pats of the NHL. They get EVERY call!

Not even close.

 

[LadyStanley]

Let sigh

 

[Boris Zubov]

Not even close.

Ok, now I'm totally convinced.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Ok, now I'm totally convinced.

C’mon, they’d have more Cups than 3 if that were true.

 

[BattleBorn]

So if Carp-Bellemare-Tuch continues to be a thing, can we call them the TCB line?

 

[Boris Zubov]

They do. They have 5. The officiating was just as skewed when they had Lemieux.

First google image result. It’s an Elvis thing.

Alrighty then

 

[ChanceVegas]

Feel sorry for flower. Defense left him out to dry on this one.

Do the Pens have less penalty minutes than other teams?

 

[BattleBorn]

I don't think Golden Knights fans are in any position to claim teams get preferential treatment.

If we're not at the bottom of the list for team penalty minutes, we've got to be close.

I'd be lying if I didn't say I've seen my share of favorable whistles (or lack thereof) go our way.

I'd have pegged them as -3, I think I did during the game last night. Surprised they weren't that cruddy.

Definitely not a great experiment.
