GDT: GDT#4| Penguins vs. Redwings | Wed, Oct. 18 2023 7:30 PM EST|LCA| Hey, it's My B-Day, all I want is a Karlsson good game...

[vodeni]

like how wings are not even trying to defend our bottom 6, they just send all five guys to pinch, he should mix up the lines a little bit to get some more punch on those lines, swap Acciari with Harkins, put JC on 4C for a little while

well he listened, not sure if this was just for this last shift

 

[bambamcam4ever]

Jarry has to be the dumbest goalie in NHL history

 

[Pancakes]

I know he's got a few goals but Sid isn't playing that well to start this season imo.

He's always a slow starter so not worried but I hope he can get it goin. A good start for this team would be big

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

well that was complete dogshit after the PP

losers

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Dubas in the booth splitting the atom on his iPad to solve the bottom 2 lines and 3rd defensive pairing.

 

[Andy99]

Detroit took it to the boys after the first few minutes…became much tighter checking through the NZ and we still have issues maintaining O zone possession

 

[BillyOcean]

Wouldn't DeSmith/Nedeljkovic be preferrable if that 4+million was spent on the bottom 6 instead? I think that's a better team overall.

 

[chethejet]

Absurd contract that Hextall just gave Carter which has no out except a trade that Carter will never Ok is so bad. But at the TDL, which is roughly 100 days from here, his cap savings over 1,6 million that may just allow for the Kings to take and get back a player who can be moved or assigned to WB.

No. That tandem would be awful.

Jarry has a .944 save% on this year so far.

This place is nuts if it thinks Jarry hasn't been good to start the year.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Pretty decent period outside of a particular point in time.

Feel for Carter, twice had breakaways Preseason and this game and comes up empty.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Jarry has to be the dumbest goalie in NHL history

He's been pretty good this year, so far.

 

[AuroraBorealis]

What's the going rate Sullivan is looking for? 1 goal from the bottom-six every 5 games?

 

[PensPlz]

Jarry isn't the guy. For all the good Dubas did... this will haunt him.

Jarry will never win a playoff series.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Colby is starting to morph into Beeker.

 

[vodeni]

Thank God Jarry was re-signed.

We get 1 pass through 2 dmen for a goal and spent the rest of the period trying to force passes through Red Wings.

this. They just don't come out in bunches and get closer to each other for the support,, now its all spread as far as you can and try those long passes through 3 skaters (except L1, they do that well)

 

[Pancakes]

What's the going rate Sullivan is looking for? 1 goal from the bottom-six every 5 games?

Considering the bottom six has exactly 0 goals so far 1 would be an improvement lol

 

[bambamcam4ever]

He's been pretty good this year, so far.

I agree, but his decisions with the puck are impressively bad and he's never shown signs of improving

 

[Ugene Magic]

Army evil laugh...

 

[Andy99]

Dubas just saying the bottom six “isn’t there yet” lol…understatement of the early season so far

 

[Empoleon8771]

This team could lose on 5 own goals by Crosby and Malkin and they'd still bitch about Jarry, Ruhwedel and Carter. You could make an AI that just says "Jarry sucks", "Sullivan sucks", "Ruhwedel sucks" and "Carter sucks" and it would account for like 80% of GDT comments.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

This is the game DOC starts to play like someone who isn't a complete nobody and starts the process of me eating crow. Maybe.

 

[vodeni]

Dubas just saying the bottom six “isn’t there yet” lol…understatement of the early season so far

let me translate to you in GM language: we'll give them another 5-6 games and if they suck we got another 5-6 bad players in AHL, we may give them a shot

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Dubas: "When you look at the championship teams, team toughness is a key part". Not word for word.

Is he talking about the Pens championship teams or other championship teams? Because we've never been known for that in the Crosby era.

Give me some credit Emp my first period observation was that Sid has kinda sucked so far, stats not withstanding.

Honestly don't like his game at all outside of the Caps game. Hasn't been good yet.

Right now we're a one line team and that needs to change in a hurry or our record is gonna go south
