GDT: Game II Pens vs Caps Oct 13th 1930hrs: Friday the 13th

[Zirakzigil]

vs

Sid:​

“Both teams understand when we play each other there’s a little bit more to the game,” Crosby said. “That’s developed over the years. Having the opportunity, all these years to go up against him… it’s brought the best of both of us.”​

Sully:​

“It’s obviously been one of the best matchups in the league for the last 15 years or so. Part of it is is because of the nature of both Sid and Ovi being two generational talents, but also they are two organizations that have had a lot of success.”​

Karlsson:​

“I’ve watched TV for a long time. It’s going to be fun. It’s a fun barn to play in. They’re a good team. They’ve got a skilled group over there.”​

Chalk up another L

Ludvig please.

 

[WickedWrister]

5-2 Pens

Rust 1st and last (EN) goal.

 

[Turin]

Time to crush the Caps. 4-0.

The Devils last year went 0-2 and then I think won 10 in a row.

We aren't that good though. Better not dig a deep hole early

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Basically just shut down the cross-ice pass to Ovechkin on the PP and you got pretty good odds to snag the W.
Hopefully Eller's in charge of that. Can't think of a better man for the job.

 

[Rudy Russo]

Time to crush the Caps. 4-0.

That would be nice, but I'll take any win on Friday night.

 

[CascadiaPenguin]

Two immutable postulates on the current Penguin era: 1.) We suck against the Hawks and our games versus them are usually inexplicably awful 2.) We don't like the Caps and generally play them tough in entertaining games. I'm betting the mood will be better in here Friday evening (but I'm not betting the house).

4-2 Crapitals

One thing nobody is pointing out is that the Caps have a new coach and by all accounts they will be playing a lot differently from how Lavi had them play…they may take an early lead as a result…Sullivan is probably going to have to make adjustments….can he anymore lol?

 

[Victor Z]

Ludvig please.

+1

Then we'll have 50% of a useful 3rd pair, which is 50% better than what we're accustomed to. Hopefully Ludvig knows how to PK too (hint: clobber the guy in the crease wearing the different colored sweater).

They signed Steven Seagal?

They signed Steven Seagal?

Shooting pucks from the hip, off-hand, from the locker room tunnel, with eyes closed... Scoring hat tricks

He was 9th best PKer in the AHL last season, should be decent in NHL hopefully.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Continuing the Massacration, and I'll add optimism.... Because, people are frail with the pessimism.



Do it for EK65!!!



Aye, aye, aye ye, matey!

 

[Ignatius]

Just call this the AARP Classic…

Tonight, who will be the one to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Need a goal from the bottom-six and PP1.
Otherwise we're 0-2-0 most likely.

I would play Ned in this one and Jarry tomorrow. Only way we taking points when tired vs Calgary is a goalie carry.

good the the new coach in waiting

Rangers looked like a new and improved team under Lavy lady night. Owned the Sabres in Buffalo

Tonight, who will be the one to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory?

Jarry

Caps are in decline and OVI was a 100 foot player now probably a 50 foot player. But against the Pens seems Mr. Dot will strike again.
