Post-Game Talk: Emporer Penguins take the crown from the Kings

[JRS91]

I've been saying since Rakell was acquired that he should be playing with Crosby and Rust.

GrizzleSuck is pretty close, that's what I would use

I'm talking about when he went off the ice in OT.

Don’t think so. He went up and down the ice, blocked a shot. I think he was just gassed. He always seems to do quick changes in 3 on 3 ot regardless - which I love and wish everyone would be on board for..

I am flabbergasted that Geno accidentally hitting Sid in the face didn't result in Sid being out for a while. Things sure have changed when it comes to the injury curse in the last two seasons. Too bad the roster is too mediocre and the coach too clueless to take advantage of that.

Nice effort and actually rewarded despite coming up against a goalie who seemed to be in the zone and a decent defense. Rakell has his disappearing spells like most wingers but when he is on, he makes all other wingers on the roster look so useless. Rust may have decent score sheet but his overall effort is nowhere near to Rakell's in most games.

Malkin looked so smooth out there and ironically scored one of the ugliest goals of his career.

Must admit, I didn't have us catching the Rangers in the standings on the bingo card. We were 5 games below .500 at one point...

I do enjoy seeing Malkin perform the way he did bc it pissed off Kings fans to no end

It's funny that we beat all three of our home games against California teams, but all three of them went to at least OT. I wonder if that trend will continue when we make our California road trip next month.

ahh, above mediocre, just where I like my hockey teams. Savored a bottle of dom in the 32 minutes we sat in a playoff position.

Exactly…I don’t get all the consternation about Sid’s goals…he’s generating a lot of offense for the team…



Also, yes…lol
