GDT: Everybody Wants to be Up, It's All Uphill from Here: Your New Jersey Devils @ Pittsburgh Penguins, 3 PM, ABC/ESPN+

I am not seeing this one... I saw the Glass goal on NHL.com I know the score but how has this looked so far? Shots look close?

Pretty even gm. One side getting the saves.

Devils had a shorthanded goal called back on offaides

neither team looks really good but as is typical their chances all go in our chances miss the net or go right in the goalie’s chest

Terrible game to lose too. Score first, a rarity, do a great job first 16 minutes of the first, and then coast and you just knew they'd let up a goal. And then a collapse. Four in a row is whatever - but we need the wins here, we're not really that far ahead.

 

[Signal]

What a lousy period. If they can wake up I still think we can steal the win. Hell maybe even a point would be acceptable after the way they’ve played today.

 

[Bleedred]

We're not going to win a whole lot if Markstrom keeps averaging 3.5-4 goals per game like he has since returning.

1-3(4?)-0 since.

 

[Better Call Sal]

We’ve largely looked sluggish. A shame that the shorthanded goal was offside, but we have been getting outworked for most of the game.

Hopefully they can flip a switch in the 3rd, but this effort won’t cut it.

This team really disappoints when they think they are cruising.

It wasn't so bad until they got down 1. They really f***ed themselves

 

[LGD]

I think Devils can win this one , I am predicting a loss though.

 

[Killing Joke]

Least wins when trailing after two vs most losses when leading after two. The Stanley Cup of suck.

 

[Lindys Lazy Eye]

Time to run with Auntie Anne instead of Mrs. Fields

 

[Devs3cups]

If they lose, 3-1 in the last 4 games. Just keep believing in yourself and keep pushing.

The game in Columbus is definitely winnable and a 3 game home stretch after.

Get one early in third and I like our chances. Reunite Nico-Timo-Jesper.

 

[jkrdevil]

Home and road this is a different team without Jack. That can probably survive at home without Jack because of the last change. On the road without getting the matchups it looks like a struggle. They weren’t doing well on the road before the injuries.

I was so pumped too!! lol. Thought we were back in the game.

> if I could find someone like Gabrielle Union

PK aren't you with Lindsay f***ing Vonn?

It feels like the zone exits are a mess, and we’re struggling to have much possession of the puck at even strength.

We really shot ourselves in the foot on that early PP in the second. We passed up possible open looks for the perfect shot and it never came.

 

[SJinNewJersey]

How is PK going to see more from Haula? He's not playing.

If that's the case, fortunately we only have 5 left after today on the road and 4 left on the road after Columbus and this two game road trip.

I think we have 9 left at home?

They split up a while ago.

 

[Bleedred]

That wasn't even the weirdest thing he said in that segment. As he may just be talking in general and not in this game.

He just said ''Are the Penguins gonna make the playoffs? That's a big maybe''.

The Penguins can get 96 points if they win every game for the rest of the season.

I’m late. Just watched the goals against.

1st- yes, you’d like no rebound there but you’d also like your dmen to clear the puck out of harm’s way

2nd- awful play by Mercer and played terribly by Markstrom. Hold your position and don’t flop like a fish

3rd- Duomolin wiping out took himself out of the play. Brutal. Where’s the coverage on Rakkell?! Who missed him? You can’t give a goal scorer that kind of chance from the slot.

Not all on Markstrom but he needs to be better. I’m more appalled by what I saw from from the D.

Bottom Line: 1 goal against this turd of a goalie isn’t getting the job done.

I haven't been so frustrated at the PP in awhile and that was comical, because within a few minutes we gave another goal up. They looked like they were trying to dunk it in the net, why not take a circle or a lot shot. My biggest pet peeve with this core of top 6/PP.

No one wants to say "guys I'll get the goal" everything is defer on PP

Lazar was a stride and a half late. Agreed Mercer was ASS on the earlier one and Marky flew way out of the position. Silly stuff but game breaking
