GDT: #30 |Penguins @ Red Wings | 7:00pm | Dec 7, 2019

[Scandale du Jour]

Passable more so than perfect IMO.

Every 7th D is at best "passable".

 

[cygnus47]

Passable more so than perfect IMO.

If he didn't take a penalty every game he'd be far better.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Could have gotten Jarry 3 straight shut outs... but nooooooo... gotta play ****ing Murray.

was right decision imo

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Went to make some coffee and missed a Ruhwedel goal. Guess that dumpster's in the lineup forever now, great stuff.

 

[The GM]

They would not get a good return anyhow.

I guess it is mostly a question of management giving up on him

At this point, trading him is all about cap space, not "value" coming back.

That’s what most thought when Mattaa was dealt

 

[Empoleon8771]

Dear god Athanasiou has an on ice save% of 74.7%. That's inconceivable that save% can be sustainable over a 30 game sample.

 

[PensandCaps]

3 shutouts in a row??

 

[ncm7772]

A goalless period for the Big Murr. A start.

Man, Wings announcers all up on the Geno / Rust train.

So JJ for AA?

 

[LOGiK]

was right decision imo

Why?

 

[JimmyTwoTimes]

So you're saying we should get Hall for that awful Hossa package?

No. Jonathan Huberdeau to play on Sid's LW.

They get 1st round, Calen Addison, Bjugstad, Nathan Legare

 

[dig1]

dumbass #46. He had to shoot that. He couldn't wait 1 more second until #53 is near to receive the rebound. Good idea #46. Except you had a brain fart

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Snoozer but we’re up 2-0 so can’t be upset.

 

[madinsomniac]

He has been the perfect.7th for us for years.

He is what he is and that's fine. If he has to be a regular, he is underwhelming but as a 7... perfect.

Yes but this staff really looks for reasons to overplay him... he is great for a game or two, then he tries to do too much and costs us games... he will either try to force offense and start giving things up the other way, or try to take hits that put him out of position... every single time he comes up its the same pattern... nice solid play... a little success.... forcing things... collapse... really poor play... finally coaches sit him again.. rinse, repeat....

 

[ncm7772]

Are they just non-stop complaining about the Pens?

Haha, no. They just seem to realize the Wings stink badly, and have no problem admitting it.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Why?

Because he played last night

 

[LOGiK]

Erry should lay off of the crowd being loud already jeeez.

Pittsburgh is one of the most quiet hockey crowds I have ever been too... nothing to brag about there Erry.

 

[Clare2904]

Does Abdelkader still play for them? where he at?

injured

 

[Scandale du Jour]

That’s what most thought when Mattaa was dealt

Olli had term. Galchenyuk is a UFA.

 

[WayneSid9987]

Despite the sloppiness in the OZ for everything not Line 1 they managed the puck alot better in their own zone that period vs the ARI game. So kudos to that.

 

[vodeni]

You can see the good and bad with Noesen. He is by far our slowest player, but he's pretty good at taking a second to make a good play. He'd be a fulltime NHL player in the right system.

I have a similar take, seems to be good around net, but he is slow moving through NZ and does not pass well or anticipate pass, that maybe inexperience with these guys, I don't see him sniffing a shoift with Sid or Geno...

 

[K Fleur]

3 shutouts in a row??

 

[Andy99]

just tuned in to the end of the first...Geno padding his stats I see against the Wings...good...would be the height of embarrassment to crap out against the craptastic wings...he should come out of this game with two more points as long as Sully doesn’t put JJ behind him...

 

[LOGiK]

Because he played last night

Im sure a 24 year old kid can go back to back after sitting half the year.
