GDT: | Game #VII | Pens vs Flames |1900hrs MST | Effort cant be worse than last night

[Night Shift]

No 82-0 this year means 1 thing..... Sully must go!

Dip$*** Sully can't even go undefeated. Robbie robble robble.

 

[Rakell67]

I hope Malkin had his fun.

With Jake and Zucker possibly out, it’s back with the scraps he’ll go!

I stopped watching after the 1st. What happened to Zucker?

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

Not expecting much out of this one. Tough back to back.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

cant wait to see how PP1 bounces back tonight!

 

[Flying Dego]

This feels like a lower scoring game from us. I'm thinking a 4-1 loss.

I've set my mindset now that I can either be right or pleasantly suprised. Perks of a pessimist.

 

[Zbynek]

Is it just me, or is anyone else thinking Malkin hatty tonight?

 

[ncm7772]

I’m bad luck this season, don’t know if I should watch tonight. Only game I’ve watched has been Montreal. Tuned in to the radio broadcast during the second period last night. We know how that went!!

5 THINGS - FLAMES VS. PENGUINS | Calgary Flames

Sid and the Kid and Co. come to town for a tilt at the Scotiabank Saddledome

www.nhl.com

In post game thread someone made an argument that Sid is known to pace himself through the season to be "fresh" for playoffs. Yeah, sure, and then he goes completely invisible in Game 7 where Jarry plays on one foot and the team loses by one goal. One hell of awesomoe "pacing" and "freshness". Face it: he is simply lazy and not motivated any more and deosn't feel like making a proper effort in every game and period and shift. I wahted to throw up when I read his comment about "putting together a 60 minute effort" since he is No1 who must do that and doesn't do that.

Well.............they could take off all 3 periods tonight

 

[RSPens]

I stopped watching after the 1st. What happened to Zucker?

Took what looked like a cross check (uncalled) to the kidney area. With his abdominal issues last year, it didn't look too promising for him

 

[Nhlpowerweek]

Waiting on a huge game by desmith tonight. Put a lot of paper on y'all.

 

[Luigi Lemieux]

It seems Calgary benefits from playing a lot of teams on a back to back since they go through Edmonton first.

 

[Flying Dego]

Waiting on a huge game by desmith tonight. Put a lot of paper on y'all.

Good luck

Zucker got hurt last night!?!?

Lol What a f***ing meme of a player.

 

[K Fleur]

I think those that are losing their shit on the team need to look around the league. Every single team is underperforming that was supposed to be a “contender” this year outside of Carolina and we’ve matched their point production.

The amount of leads being blown right now is bizarre by numerous teams.

If they lose tonight it will stink, but what we are seeing is simply October hockey. I’d rather they underperform now and get bought in later in the season tbh.

Yeah guys don’t jump to any conclusions in October.

Pixies would never do that.

Lol What a f***ing meme of a player.

I’m not seeing anything about him actually being hurt? I saw it last night, but he played after.

 

[Ziggdiezan]

Any updates on if Guentzel is playing?

He did play after iirc. He took a stick to the arm or nuts or something. It was hard to tell where it got him. But he came back after.

 

[ThosePuckingPenguins]

See you in January, Jason.

 

[Pancakes]

So Poulin and Caggiula in then?

Will they crack 14 minutes of ice time combined?

 

[Empoleon8771]

See you in January, Jason.

Lmao

It doesn't matter how well Zucker plays because he's just going to get hurt.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

Looked like to the ribs/kidneys. Real soft spot without much padding.

 

[DesertedPenguin]

I'm really curious who will play on the left side with Malkin. Caggiula might get his shot like had in training camp.
