Pens hockey 21-22

[MTC]

The Sid effect. When he returns we walk away from our attack. I almost predicted a loss tonight,

Yeah they definitely lacked the aggression they’ve been playing with. It’s like they coast and depend on him to create the plays. I know the dude is a hof’er but just treat him like another teammate on the ice.


Sid still has skill in terms of puck handling and set up. It’s frustrating that these guys let up. Surround that ****** with some aggression and his play will enhance that.

Maybe Sullivan sees it. Who knows. One night doesn’t make or break the season, especially this early thank God

 

[MTC]

It's really an embarrassing loss. Their third string netminder, and Sid back with Carter. At home. I hope this one stings for them. They need to feel like crap for a bit.

Eh there’s a lot of parity in pro sports. Minors, bench warming goalies etc all have skill.
Wasn’t it Montreal who pulled some average Joe out of the crowd last season and won a game?


Time to focus on next game

Complete bullshit call on Sid that cost them the game last night. That should have been a power play not a penalty shot.

Between that and the frustrating PSU loss I am not looking forward to the Steeler game today. Think I will DVR it so I can skip the BS and possible stroke watching it live.

Good call. You can skip the political commercials too.

Sid and Dumo out with covid tonight, and the next two weeks.

Sucks

Entertaining game tonight, Pens up 2-1 2:30 to go in the 2nd

 

[JMM]

Flyers just tied it up with 2 something to go in the 3rd....Pens giving it all they have but the pedal has hit the metal and then some.

 

[Djfan]

What a great game (mostly) against the flyers!!!

 

[JMM]

Great win...Just noticed I posted the OT stuff in the P&R forum....Time to call it a night.

Awesome fortitude for Letang to do what he did tonight after being out for 4 games with Covid.. Great win for Coach Reardon filling in for Sully tonight. Really glad they won tonight. They desperately needed a win....

 

[MTC]

Missed the 1st period of thursdays game but the captain Carter led WBS Penguins looked decent vs the flyers. For as frustrating as Letang can be, the guy is on fire when he is dialed in.

 

[Djfan]

We have been playing the Wild very well. PO Joseph left the other team in the crease. Jarry couldn't see. Can't let that happen.

 

[Djfan]

KAPPY IS ON FIRE!!!!!

Let's get him his FIRST hattie!!!!

You just knew that Kappanen was going to explode with all the chances he was getting but I switched to something else last night with 3 minutes to go, up 4-2, and they manage to blow the lead? WTF.

 

[black and gold apex]

Hard lose to the wild

So you are to blame? Geez...😉

I didn't tune into the game so I have no idea what happened.

 

[Steelr4evr]

I didn't see it. I did see the HT in highlights. Great job, crap job blowing the game in regulation.

Usually its the other way around. Was bouncing around the football games and missed the debacle.

Did tune in to watch the shootout which, I thought might help since my luck was *** backwards last night, but the Pens weren't having any of that......

I missed it yesterday. I was dawg tired…literally lol. I napped. Saw the score 3-2 in the second period. Couldn’t muster the energy to turn on the tv so I conked right back to sleep

Old fart

Old fart

I think Dawg Tired is defined as the result of having too many beers/drinks during a Georgia game.

Someone gets it

Probably going to miss the 1st period tonight. I don’t get out of work until 8pm eastern time. 6pm mountain in my timezone.


May the Pens take after their nfl brothers and stick it to chicago

 

[JMM]

I might skip tonight's game. After last night's game, 5:00 AM came awfully early today...
