GDT: Game VI Pens vs Stars 1930hrs EST: Dancing with the Stars

[The Old Master]

I'm interested to see what Ludvig does. Not expecting much as a waiver get, and playing on his off side no less.

is that what you call, putting a player in a position to succeed? just ask'en for a friend.

Kessel was a point per game player when JR turned him into POJ and f***ing Galchenyuk

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Man, the Caps are ghastly.

Klingberg was outrageously good before Heiskanen was even drafted.

He was overrated and a product of some good offensive Dallas teams. The only thing I will give him is he is a solid PPQB. Outside of that he's not a very good Dman

 

[K Fleur]

Man, the Caps are ghastly.

Their whole goal the next 3 years is getting OVI that record.

Like they’re not even remotely trying to hide it lol.

I'm late to the party on this POJ v RUH debate. But I like results as opposed to expected results. Last season I came up with a Randy Butternubs % for forward lines. And I guess I can use it for individual results too. Last year's RB% for POJ was 57.8% and RUH was 50.4%. The higher the better.

I think the debate was more around whether POJ had "sparkling analytics" and not whether POJ was better than Ruhwedel or not.

POJ put up a great goal differential last year and had strong 5v5 production. Beyond that, his overall results were pretty middling. Absolutely not good enough to claim that he had "sparkling analytics" unless you think Ruhwedel had "sparkling analytics".

For sure. And that dude looks like he's completely outta gas. Watching him get so close and fall short would be f***ing hilarious.

 

[ColePens]

Yep, it’s sad…

Talk about when a stat matches up with the eye test, eh?

 

[Zirakzigil]

Okay. Let’s go boys!

He has the best GF and GA per 60 out of regular defensemen. I know you need to gatekeep the words analytics, but POJ was much better than Ruhwedel last season.

Keep defending players like Chad Ruhwedel tho.

Yeah he looked like he was 65 years old in the game against us.

Why is there a fan in the stands wearing a Joe Burrow Bengals jersey

 

[Andy99]

Man, the Caps are ghastly.

Pens havent been much better to start the season lol…

 

[The Grim Reaper]

I’ll know the Pens are over when Jimerson retires.

 

[3ladesof5teel]

Why is there a fan in the stands wearing a Joe Burrow Bengals jersey

Because Kenny Pickett isn't good

 

[ColePens]

Ruh is about as AHL #8 dman as it gets. They are a dime/dozen. If people want to throw f***ing charts out there to make it feel he's better... they are not worth debating.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Why is there a fan in the stands wearing a Joe Burrow Bengals jersey

Because the Steelers are a basement team

 

[ColePens]

What a freaking career for Joe Pavelski. Seriously.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Pens havent been much better to start the season lol…

Okay, Andy.

 

[K Fleur]

Ned’s nose looks like it’s trying to run off the side of his face.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Because Kenny Pickett isn't good

Because the Steelers are a basement team

I think you two missed the point of why I was asking that

I meant why are they wearing that to a Penguins game

 

[The Grim Reaper]

I’m a Pens/Eagles fan. Weirdos like me exist lol

Might be the only sports jersey they have, but I agree, it’s hilarious

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Good start

Letang/Graves behind L1
Karlsson/Petts behind L2

 

[ColePens]

Z just out hustled 2 players to get that possession

 

[Fordy]

big z demonstrating why it’s good to be big
