GDT: ECF Game 1|The Guild of Calamitous Intent|Penguins vs. Bruins|Part II

[SEALBound]

They've given up on Vokoun. They're getting easy odd man chances on us.

Huh?

 

[Terrapin]

Any chance in hell Vitale plays over Sutter next game? He cannot possibly be any more invisible.

 

[Jacob]

Sutter looks like an old woman with the flu out there.

 

[Waffle Fries]

So when is DB gonna reunite KMN...

If only we had a player on the team who could win board battles for Malkin and Neal.

If only we had a proven finisher to play with Sid.


Oh wait.

 

[HotCoffey]

Once it was 2-0 it was over, they were always just going to take the neutral zone away.

 

[heretik27]

Well, of course you'd rather be the team carrying the play. I just don't find any solace in saying "Well, we dominated" because it doesn't really mean anything in the end. The score matters and if you're on the short end of it then that's all that really matters. I think it's entirely possible for us to "dominate" our way to 4 losses.

Isles lost at least two games where they outplayed the pens for the majority of the game.

 

[farscape1]

So, we're not gonna sweep the Bruins?

No the Bruins are going to sweep us.

 

[pensfan71]

Vitale for Sutter?

Quoting the other poster:

Is DB still the coach?

 

[Tofveve]

No Fleury, ever. If you want the Pens to win that is.

 

[TheHudlinator]

So when is DB gonna reunite KMN...

It will never happen IMN have been to dominate

 

[domaug*]

to be fair, Fleury has terrific numbers against Boston.

however, you don't put him in unless Vokoun really is the reason they are losing. so far, he isn't.

 

[mpp9]

Sutter looks like a ***** out there. Might wanna find a way to add some bulk kid.

 

[Moebius]

Sutter: soft.

 

[pensfan71]

If only we had a player on the team who could win board battles for Malkin and Neal.

If only we had a proven finisher to play with Sid.


Oh wait.

Only if we had a power forward playing his proper position with the best player in the world

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

u gotta wonder what db tells them between periods

 

[Frederick Stanley]

This is were I'd love Torts. I know he's an idiot, but could you imagine Bylsma benching Brad Richards?

I'd much rather lose a game that I thought we dominated than to lose a game that we got thoroughly outplayed in. The latter is far more demoralizing to a team and bodes poorly for their future outlook (see: Ottawa).

 

[Marns]

Lol, Healy just said he's never seen Malkin fight.

 

[66 to 87]

You think that scrum at the end of the 2nd would have fired them up. Instead they come out on empty.

 

[Waffle Fries]

Only if we had a power forward playing his proper position with the best player in the world

If only we had a dynamic right hand shot for the first pp unit.


Damn this is fun.

 

[JESSEWENEEDTOCOOK]

Just curious, why did they take Iginla off the first PP unit? Your team's PP seems to not be very effective without him, and then it seems to get instantly better when Iginla is on there. Seems pretty open and shut to me. What gives?

 

[pensfan71]

This is were I'd love Torts. I know he's an idiot, but could you imagine Bylsma benching Brad Richards?

Could you imagine Torts being so kind to the referees...and not ripping our players a new one?

Could you imagine DB actually coaching?

 

[Guins71]

This team let a 1-0 Boston lead that was based off of some lucky breaks on posts and a deflected goal turn them into a total headcase. This team needs better leadership than that from it's coach and captain.

 

[Kenadyan]

Sutter needs to sit, he just sucks

Sutter has been frustrating to watch tonight. Earlier in the game he was back checking, and instead of getting the puck, he starts looking around to see who is going to check him. Smh.

Bylsma happened.
