GDT: GDT: #39 - Pens vs. Rangers - Tuesday, April 6th 2021 | 7:00PM EST | Crosby's Redemption Tour

[Randy Butternubs]

He somehow managed to greatly improve his skating during Covid.

Improved leg strength from squatting farm animals.

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

Said this the other day. THIS top unit is either really good or really bad on any given PP. It's been more good than bad lately. As long as it stays that way, just create a 2nd unit with returning guys, including Malkin. Start whichever unit is fresher. If it's a tie, then Sid's unit. Make Malkin first change (or Sid first change when Malkin's unit starts).

Won't work that way, of course . . .

That sounds like all Penguins PP units, not just this one.

 

[Gurglesons]

Not really sure how we can afford to lose McCann. Dude is amazing.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

Is McCann going to be left unprotected?

 

[KIRK]

At least Sid is hungry now.

Zucker and EROD backchecking . . . not so much.

 

[OnMyOwn]

Creep back into it. It’d be nice to get another one before periods end

 

[vodeni]

2 great looks,

Okay, they're coming now.

look don't worry anymore about Pens playing the right way, lets just hope that goaltending is there and a bit of puck luck

 

[Randy Butternubs]

At least Sid is hungry now.

Where's Despres when we need him?

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Atta boy ERod..........walk Zib's ass out of the crease

 

[canadianguy77]

McCann on the PP again.

He leads the team.

And I was told he's too "indecisive" or something. You were wrong.

Do not take him off PP1.

Tbf, he looks like a totally different player this season. He’s a much better skater, and not as reluctant to use his shot.

 

[PhilThrillPill]

You give them draft picks nd ask them to take Petterson.

Edit: Or Matheson

 

[KIRK]

Is McCann going to be left unprotected?

IF the Pens add at the deadline, maybe. If not, I suspect they protect McCann and leave Zucker exposed (if he isn't traded).

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

Rags d is mobile asf

 

[Gurglesons]

Letang is an utter mess tonight.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Somebody tell Sid the game has started.............

 

[Trade]

I’m a little behind but that pass by Dumo to Rust was a beauty.

 

[KIRK]

Actually, you need all three if you hope to go anywhere in the playoffs.

 

[PhilThrillPill]

Interference on Jake - not called.
Hooking on Rust - not called.

f*** off refs.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Letang has made 3 dumb plays so far, which means only two more dumb plays and then he’ll score.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Kreider is that nice mix of shit-disturber and quality production winger. Has great speed too.

And Adam Fox is quickly becoming an absolute stud. Lots of reason to worry about this Rangers team in the near future.

ive said that for a decade now... do you realize the advantage you have when you can put a two supreme power play units out... especially if the first unit plays a short shift then gets put right back out after the power play ends and all their best defense guys are spent

 

[ownal]

If we score another this period we are going to come back and win.

bad stretch of games for him...Marchand really does screw his head

The problem is no coach knows how to manage it, perhaps because the answer to a Sid unit and a Geno unit PP is obvious . . . fresher unit starts and from whichever unit doesn't start, Sid or Geno changes first.

IF they did it now-- and they won't-- my 5 man Malkin unit would be Malkin, Kap, Zucker, Ceci, Matheson.
