GDT: GAME 5| COUNTS NUMBER OF THE DAY| FLYERS @ PENS|FRI, APRIL 20th (7:00pm) AT&T

[flaneur]

wait. did ron maclean just say: "the pens, obviously terrible in that period"?

i mean he isn't wrong... just surprising.

 

[Ogrezilla]

This looks nothing like the team that played Wednesday...I feared this was going to happen...

G better be fine or we’re in trouble....

it looks a LOT like the team that played Sunday though.

Obviously I agree on Geno.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

Pens are playing like f***ing garbage right now.

 

[vodeni]

Knees can be tricky though, but, yes, he went off on his own power.

he has come back in similar situation only to be week to week after the game...

 

[KIRK]

I know. I just like putting it in print.

Ffffff**** I hope he's traded this summer.

 

[Tom Hanks]

They’re getting dominated.

Really? I’d say we’ve had as many chances as them.

 

[cygnus47]

Got lazy at the end of the period there. Need to refocus. Hopefully Geno just got a bit of a scare at the end there.

 

[Rudy Russo]

Pens are lucky they are only down by one after the first.

 

[Pancakes]

They obviously didnt care that period. Passed up 5 good attempts..to make a pass.

Honestly like them better on the road..where they have to play with urgency. Being at home..they are too relaxed and the other team makes them pay. Glad we dont have home ice advantage throughout the playoffs

The urgency is there but I think we get a bit more pass happy at home.

I expect we'll have a much better second. Hopefully with Geno tho

 

[SEALBound]

Not irrecoverable. But they need to pick it up and shoot the damn puck.

 

[vodeni]

Pens are playing like ****ing garbage right now.

Sid totally di not show up, he looks totally disinterested, I'd put sheary with him, he probably hates Simon

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Is it just me, or does Aston-Reese make a lot of soft plays in his own zone? Quite a few times he'll either fail to get the puck out, or he'll attempt a dangerous pass to the middle of the ice that gets picked off.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

That was so f***ing stupid of Geno. Don't try to slewfoot people, you dope.

 

[KIRK]

he has come back in similar situation only to be week to week after the game...

This is the playoffs. He won't be week to week. He'll play.

Thing is, IF he comes back, then Sully 100% needs to insulate him. None of this Phil bull****. Hags and Rust, so he doesn't get forced to overdo it.

 

[SirBrad]

Got home late toda. Put the game on and within 2 minutes Geno went down and the Flyers scored in a turnover. Yay.

He's been taking pointers from Sheary.

its hilarious the praise he got from the media, he does not much and I am rooting for a guy but just don't see anything there not even effort, Kuhn is at least hustling

It’s been a problem in the playoffs for him.

 

[BeatenLikeRentedMule]

Pretty crap 1st period. Play another 2 periods like this and onto game 6.

 

[KIRK]

Got home late toda. Put the game on and within 2 minutes Geno went down and the Flyers scored in a turnover. Yay.

So, you're saying . . . it's YOUR fault?

 

[Pengwins]

I don't know why.. it looked like interference to me.

Maybe he was mad at Simon

 

[PensandCaps]

Meh. Brassard is here and can be a solid 2C. But down Horny and Malkin...will be tough to win this game. Hopefully both are back next one if we don't win.

ZAR-Sid-Simon
Guenztel-Sheahan-Kessel
Hags-Brassard-Rust
Sheary-Double shift Sid-Kuhn

 

[Burn]

Not exactly the killer instinct I was hoping for.

Absolutely zilch in the first.

Compete GD it.

 

[Tom Hanks]

He's been taking pointers from Sheary.

Does Sully have any more nieces?

 

[fate]

They're not getting dominated but need a good ball busting at intermission to wake up
