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

[DesertedPenguin]

Are they already changing up the D pairs or is someone hurt? The last shift had Shea-Letang and the shift before was I believe Ludvig-Karlsson.

I think they've had some odd changes. Couple forwards had some longer shifts, too.

 

[DearDiary]

Eller has some nice skill but dudes on an island

Which AHL linemate should he send the puck to get a dead play?

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Look at DOC out there skating around doing... nothing

Just overflowing with make believe potential.

DOC's RB% last year not so good.

 

[3ladesof5teel]

They're one of the top cup contenders in hockey IMO, I think they're better than both Colorado and Vegas this year.

They are my pick coming out of the West. I've always been a big fan of Benn, Pavs and Seguin.

Their young guys are all really good with some 1st and 2nd year players that have some real potential

 

[66-30-33]

He's got a little Gudas vibe to him

So he wont be in the lineup much.

 

[DearDiary]

Is Graves getting benched?

 

[K Fleur]

The only bad thing about playing our backup is that we have to miss out on the 15 “Jarry is the least of our problems tonight” posts every time he gives up a horrible goal.

 

[WickedWrister]

Frozen Frenzy broadcast is kinda cool. Nothing revolutionary but its nice to be able to watch hockey during breaks in action without having to flip around channels/streams.

 

[Pancakes]

Lol Marchment with the double axe handle there

 

[ColePens]

ColePens sees hockey better than Colby.... saw the 4 on 4 the entire time.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Eller would be a very solid 4C. He's not awful as a 3C but ideally, y'know.

 

[K Fleur]

Guentzel playing fast tonight.

Better trade him for some dork like Hanifin soon.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

Good start

 

[WickedWrister]

Nice play by Malkin and Graves to force the PP

 

[Pancakes]

I seriously thought at least one of Acciari or Nieto would be decent... and they suck. So worthless out there. But i think 25 games should be given to see if it's just getting acclimated.

I'm trying to be patient in general with the team but it's a struggle after what we saw last year.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I feel like the bottom-6 clearly looks better than what they had to end last year. It just hasn't resulted in pucks going in yet.

 

[66-30-33]

Guentzel playing fast tonight.

Better trade him for some dork like Hanifin soon.

Oilers could use Jake. Pens could use Leon. Let's do a trade 1 for 1.

the problem is there is no even a hint of something they are good at

RB%?

 

[Empoleon8771]

Speaking of Ryan Poehling, I completely forgot Ryan Poehling even played for the Penguins last year

He looks like a nothing piece on Philly's 4th line at this point.

 

[Andy99]

Nice play by Malkin and Graves to force the PP

If they just stand around on the PP again it’s not worth it lol

 

[K Fleur]

“Surprisingly struggling Penguins power play”

f***ing lol

 

[Randy Butternubs]

RB%?

Randy Butternubs %

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

OTT reading everything and looks locked in..... not good
