I guess that was a fluke last game for Jake...and Petts just can't do one thing right

 

[Andy99]

Very lazy PP

 

[Honour Over Glory]

unless they can pull off a trade, get your bag ready

Gotta keep pumping the Dumoulin tires, that Sully.

 

[vodeni]

POJ is having a rough one tonight.

I thought that was Petts, my bad

 

[Honour Over Glory]

POJ is having a rough one tonight.

Anyone that plays with Ruhwedel tends to. Ruhwedel routinely screws his defensive partner over with awfully timed passes and just zero awareness of where his partner is.

 

[SomeDude]

Whoever decided 3 drop passes is a viable PP zone entry strategy should never be allowed to work in hockey again.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Letting these guys hang in there.....

As soon as I hit reply, BOOM.

 

[Andy99]

Game is much more entertaining when it’s wide open…except there…D optional

 

[Clare2904]

Choke time

 

[TNT87]

Damn.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

That's a goal

 

[Andy99]

We’re going to blow this, aren’t we?

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Lol to be up 5-4 on the Canucks is laughable, there's no score at this point that makes this game a positive.

 

[vodeni]

I can see why Sully hates Kappy, it all started with his lazy lazy puck handling and zero desire to win the puck

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Please, just for once this season don't blow a lead.

Yep.

Allvin just isn't good. He let a lot of solid, inexpensive bottom 6 talent go, players that did the hard 2-way game for a team that needed those types. They prioritized Miller (of whom they should have dealt for a D-man) and had to move away glue players and couldn't upgrade their D and JR now talks about being in cap issues that they are getting out of, lol.

I'll judge him when some of these bad contracts expire and he gets the flexibility to do what he wants. Benning really f***ed them up.
Plus Allvin needs more time to develop as a GM.

Sakic does suck, his Assistant GM was doing a lot of the hard work for him while he took on a legacy role and was learning as he went along, now he's President where he should be and Chris McFarland, who has done most of the magic for the Avs and has been one of the GM's that's always at the top of other teams' list if available, is their GM.

Hard to say definitively. I've heard MacFarland was instrumental, but we're heavily speculating on their internal processes and what Sakic's contributions were.

That's just a tough bounce

Kaps played a solid game with his opportunities

 

[PaulD]

Yep. Sully already working on his pout face after the 4th Canuck goal.

 

[NewAgeOutlaw]

Does anybody wonder if Sully goes back to GCR this season because Malkin really likes playing with Zucker and Rakell? Both those guys work really hard.

 

[vodeni]

yes but when you see him just giving up on 50 50 pucks which turned the tide and ended up in the net...Sully sees that shit...

It's been GCR?

Pffft. As if Sully needs a reason to go to GCR

 

[vodeni]

do Pens think that the second player is not allowed to help on face offs...

 

[Pancakes]

Mcdavid already having 30 four point games is insane
