Post-Game Talk: Game #3 Pens vs Leafs

[Sidney the Kidney]

What a shocker. Pens can't win or score goals against teams that don't play shit defense or whose goalie isn't letting in muffins from everywhere.

It's like we've seen this movie for the past handful of seasons. But nah, I'm sure things will change as long as we keep doing the exact same things over and over again.

At least we have a top 11 LW.

 

[Sorry]

Makes total sense to break up a third line that had something going the last two weeks. Subsequently taking DOC away from Malkin when those two have showed a spark. What an absolute gong show behind the bench.

Damn Petts for tanking his trade value…someone tell him we need a first for him!

I honestly didn't hate their game. I thought they really took it to the Leafs in the first. They played quick and had a good forecheck. Leafs got their first two on bad bounces.

That game could have gone either way honestly.

I had the opposite takeaway tbh. Blom kept them in it but they were giving away odd man chances and high danger shots like candy. There's no structure to their game

Yeah, defensive breakdowns, poor coverage and bad decisions all game..

Bunting's dodged valid criticism that should be lobbed his way through three games imo. Dude's been pretty dogshit.

It's weird that they refuse to use him as a net front guy on the PP when I feel like that's pretty much his only value as a player tbh.

Rust serves no purpose on PP1.

This was news pre-Covid.

No depth scoring.

If we get any depth scoring we get a point.

I wish I could smash that like button

This team just isn't all that talented offensively. Sid and Geno can still bring it (though Sid was bad tonight) but the wingers in the top six pretty much are all varying levels of stink.

The bottom six looks better than it was last year but I still don't think there's going to be a whole lot of offense coming from them.

And the goaltending....Blomqvist looks solid so far but he's young and will probably get sent down when Ned comes back. TJ is TJ.

PP looks better I guess?

It's just a very poorly coached team. I'm convinced it would compete with any other coach that isn't sully or Quinn.
