Yep, It's amazing that some posters don't believe it's all that important to win tonights game. I guess they're bad at math. We haven't clinched anything.
If you lose a game like this tonight you're asking for problems. We're still without key pieces and haven't secured a playoff spot yet. Taking any game for granted under the circumstances is kinda foolish.
My point is that whenever the Pens lose a game, there are people on here that need to be walked back from the edge. Yes they should win this game and they should win it handily, but if not it's not the end of the season either. It is a game against a team that has nothing to lose. The Pens have traditionally played down to their opponents. My comment was to the fact that losing to a non-playoff team doesn't really matter when you have one of the best records against playoff teams. Now if the Pens were in Philly's spot (also tied with Tampa and the Pens for most points against playoff teams), that is a whole other story. Sure the Pens haven't cinched anything yet, but the chance to not make the playoffs is basically slim to none.
My point is that we haven't won anything yet. And what happened to this point really doesn't matter. Again, we're missing key players, eventually that'll catch up with you. I don't think this current line up beats the Caps or the Bruins and probably not the Flyers (they'd loved to spoil things for us). So winning tonight is pretty important, like. I don't expect the Rags to loose much from here on in. We need at least five or six wins. It's doable but far from certain. A win tonight would be a big help.
It wouldn't be the first time, or the second, or the third.Blackwood is out... now watch whoever replace him become first star of the week because we play the Devils three times in a row and for some reason struggle against no name backups.
Meh...I think it'd be great if he had a few more points and a goal by now, but when you look at what the Pens gave up for him verses what Florida paid for Bennett (essentially 2 2nd's) and what the Caps paid for Mantha, I am happy with the current results.Hopefully Carter can score one.
I know it's early, but it kind of sucks to see guys like Mantha, Hall, and Bennett (all guys I wouldn't have minded the Pens acquiring) producing for their new clubs already, with Carter having 1 assist in 3 games.
And yes, I'm impatient. I acknowledge this.
Keep losing “these games” and they won’t make the playoffs to even have to worry about how good they are against playoff teams...
I guess you could look at it that way...but I am more concerned with the Pens road record than I am with their record against non-playoff teams.
Just like the time you said Jank was traded.This is a W. Bet your house on it

I want to say "Thank You!" to everyone stepping up...! Quite a few who don't normally do them...
Just 6 more for the regular season. They are easy... take 5/10 minutes for the basic of GDT's, only asking for 1, but won't turn down more if you want to do more. GDT SIGNUPS
