GDT: Game #82. Pens in Philly. 3:30 pm Sat.

[Ogrezilla]

I thought the pens were out of call ups. Did they fabricate an injury?

Must have. Though I don't think an injury needs to be all that severe to allow a call-up. Tightness in a muscle is honestly probably enough.

Fitting that the Flyers season will come down to the Rangers, Penguins, and Islanders, in games that are meaningless for all 3. In the very least your Australian fan will get to see a game that means something for one team, albeit without Crosby and Letang it'll be a little bittersweet. Hopefully no one gives anyone any serious **** in the crowd.

Hoping for a clean game, no more injuries for you guys headed into the dance, and a win for mine so we can join. Also, as always, go Buccos.

Has it been announced as official that crosby and letang aren't playing?

If JR had traded him for Oshie like he apparently could have then Bennett's shoulder wouldn't have been screwed up by Oshie.

Keeping Kunitz was the biggest mistake this org has made in... awhile... giving a time frame could end in a fight.


Remember when Lovejoy almost got MAF in the eye?

I'm still kind of fuzzy on this. Surely the rumor was not just Kunitz for Oshie, right? I'm assuming the Blues wanted more than just 14 in return given their age differences. Was Pouliot or picks supposed to be involved.

Sullivan speaks to the media at 1:30. I imagine either they'll be ruled out then or declared a "game-time decision" and be scratched at the last second.

Just have WBS players use the Big Pens jerseys and sub in. WBS is right there, just have them all wear tinted visors.

After the game when we go out to eat I am for sure leaving my jersey and stuff in the car haha. I trust security at the games but not South Philadelphia haha. Hopefully it is fun. Rarely do I get to enjoy a hockey game without stressing over the outcome. This game is like a perfect win-win situation for us so it should be fun and I won't need to yell

I wouldn't wear Pens stuff in Philly after the game. Something is wrong with the gene pool there and you'll have every piece of trash in the city wanting to fight you. I've never seen anything like it in any other NHL city and I've been to a lot.

Flyers under a lot of heat here. Pens will play a nice game and do their part. Flyers being hammered by the caps isn't the worst outcome for the pens. Pens in the second round play the caps a long hard knock down drag out series would benefit the Pens.

@Pens Hey this dude named Toxic Holocaust will be in from Australia! Sad he's missing Crosby!

Until it's officially announced, I'll be holding on to hope......

I know it's the right move for the team to make, but man it sucks. No Geno & no Sid. FML

 

[Malkinstheman]

is murray starting?

hopefully you'll get to see the Flyers lose at least. That's always fun.

Try to make it known how far you came to see him to a Pens rep, or one of the radio/TV guys there and maybe you will get a nice one on one and selfie with him.

Can't hurt to try.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

I'm surprised Crosby is sitting so close to 87 points. Surprised but impressed... unless they're resting our star left winger.

I'm still kind of fuzzy on this. Surely the rumor was not just Kunitz for Oshie, right? I'm assuming the Blues wanted more than just 14 in return given their age differences. Was Pouliot or picks supposed to be involved.

iirc, it was disturbingly close to a one for one swap. Someone else can correct me if I'm wrong, that just means I'll spend the day crying.

Just sent them a tweet. Obviously I'm not expecting them to do anything for me, but as you said, worth a shot. Sorry to hijack the thread guys. Still excited to see the Pens live!!

Boston up 1-0
Detroit down 1-0

Games are free on center ice.

so many combos as to who the Pens will be playing but basically Islanders need to lose both for the Pens to play the Rangers assuming that result stands?

Isles need to lose 1 for the rag to take back the 3rd spot

Must appreciated! Thought the Wings game was on NBC. NO. I get soccer.

No, if the Rangers win and the Islanders go 1-1 in the last 2, the Pens will play the Rangers. If the Rangers lose, the Islanders need to go 0-2 for us to play the Rangers. I think we'll get the Islanders.

How do you watch it for free?

 

[JakeNBake59]

Murray in net

 

[shureshot66]

Those alleged "bumps and bruises" are the excuse they used to be able to emergency recall Mouillierat.

 

[JakeNBake59]

No, if the Rangers win and the Islanders go 1-1 in the last 2, the Pens will play the Rangers. If the Rangers lose, the Islanders need to go 0-2 for us to play the Rangers. I think we'll get the Islanders.

awesome thanks

No Crosby, Letang, Malkin, Maatta, Fleury, BB, Rust no problem. Will make this win that much more sweeter.
