GDT: #25| Flyers at Penguins| Sat, Dec. 1|7:00PM|It's going down/One of those days..|PPG

[Gurglesons]

Right there is why I want Hornqvist on Crosby’s line. Jake looking for a pass going one on one..

 

[td_ice]

Yeah Jake's gonna want that back.

 

[Andy99]

We need to shoot quicker on goal...

 

[ColePens]

Maatta had like a 4 step lead and lost. Please move him west.

 

[Crosbyfan]

I don't know why you guys want Sprong out there. There's a legitimate concern he might play like the others.

 

[Gurglesons]

Yeah I know. But as bad as he’s playing today, he’s still making some nice play. His timing and effort level is way off though. Could be numerous things (home life, coaches, going through the motions, bad run, dispute with teammates etc.)

Wife is pregnant with # 2?

 

[ColePens]

That's on ZAR there. He made a hot mess of that.

 

[SouthGeorge]

What a shit show in the NZ

 

[AverageJoeFan]

Oh man that rebound yikes

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

So Philly the best team in the league...for one night?

 

[ColePens]

Man ZAR with a absolutely brutal shift.

 

[Andy99]

Yeah I know. But as bad as he’s playing today, he’s still making some nice play. His timing and effort level is way off though. Could be numerous things (home life, coaches, going through the motions, bad run, dispute with teammates etc.)

That his coach actively hates skilled players could be one of them...and wants him to play like a plug

 

[Gurglesons]

That's on ZAR there. He made a hot mess of that.

Can we just be honest.. ZAR and Sprong are about equal levels of ineffective.

I’ve erased sprong from my memory, I suggest everyone does the same.

 

[KIRK]

That was my point.

The reference to playing like a guy who wants the coach gone didn't mean I thought that was the reason, but as we've both said, something is way off. Even on a 'good' night, he's technically okay, but he's not Geno. Not the guy we saw in October.

Thing is, IF I were Sully watching this, I'd be a lot more worried (and proactive about trying to do something to help) than Sully in fact has been.

One keeps getting chances after chances while the other is eating popcorn.

 

[SouthGeorge]

Simon blows

 

[BHD]

lol. How do they not finish there?

 

[K Fleur]

ZAR/Brass/Phil ain’t it chief.

 

[Andy99]

ZAR is horribly slow to the boards and lets a Flyer keep the puck in..,

 

[SEALBound]

Whatever you do Jake...do...NOT...shoot that puck. I repeat, do NOT SHOOT THAT PUCK. Ever. For any reason. Will we get goals else where.

 

[Turin]

That his coach actively hates skilled players could be one of them...and wants him to play like a plug

Malkin has consistently been a 1.20+ ppg player under Sullivan.

 

[Bnat66]

Drink Fierceously. Play Responsibly. Jack Daniels

 

[AverageJoeFan]

Jake..redline my friend

 

[Bingo71]

Struggling against this Flyers team...

 

[ColePens]

Jake's over passing is driving me nuts. SHOOT FOR A f***ING REBOUND. Jesus dude. You are trying too hard.

 

[TNT87]

Come on Jake
