Noel Acciari has a concussion. Malkin just a maintenance day.

 

[HandshakeLine]

How could they tell Acciari was concussed?

 

[McGroarty2]

I wonder who on the Pens Dillon would be challenged by had he not been suspended?

 

[Pancakes]

So all that awful stuff that Hockey Canada was involved with and meanwhile team USA is employing Bill Guerin as GM and he covered up a sexual assault while here and recently was investigated by the Wild for verbal abuse lol.

I love hockey and there's a ton of great people involved with it and I grew up playing and still do but man

 

[BusinessGoose]

How could they tell Acciari was concussed?

They asked him if he knew where he was and he stated: "on a contending team"

 

[Andy99]

Flyers, Caps, Canes and Devils all leading tonight lol…Jets down again but this time to the Flyers
will be very difficult to move into a playoff spot with the Metro all winning out of the break

Yea metro is going to be tight. The pens need the flyers to go on another 5 game losing streak but idk if they will happen.

At least no matter what they gain on the Isles or Lightning tonight

He kept yelling "To me, my X-Men!" to Chad Ruhwedel.

Great ........ White gets 2 more undeserved games. Bottom 6 goals a-comin'.

Tampa may be too far ahead…root for them, especially since I think it will be easier for us to get into third in the division than to make it as a WC

Flyers of course scoring more against the Jets than we did lol

Should be Poulin up over him…

Also Danton Heinen has 10 goals, more than anyone in our bottom six, and yet we couldn’t bother to re-sign him because Sullivan wanted a bunch of stone handed PKers lol

He’s just another vanilla player.

He had opportunities last year, including in the top six, and no one wanted to sign him this off-season.

Good for him for making some contributions this year, but not bringing him back was the right call.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

We went from "Heinen is AHL-caluber trash, Sullivan's pet" last year to "Sullivan drove a 4th line gem outta town cuz he was too good at scoring goals."

Tampa is going to be hurting without Sergachev. They are in a wild card and about to be past by detroit.

We need to pass both Tampa and the isles

correct they should not have signed him again but also correct that they didnt really bring in skilled players for the bottom 6.

Neito
Accari
Eller
White
Harkins

We hate players like Heinen and ERod while they’re here, and then we look at the replacements and complain even more bitterly…basically the only person we needed to NOT re-sign was Sullivan lol

He’s just another vanilla player.

Who scores more away from this coaching staff while playing on L4 (see Sprong) lol

Yes These Chuckleheads would rip Dubas for anyone they signed, Nutty as Squirrel shit

I don't miss Heinen. He produces sometimes but doesn't do anything else.

 

[Andy99]

Well, at least Caps and Devils lost lol…seriously, Isles and Flyers extending their leads over us…we cant afford a single loss

I dislike Sullivan too and have wanted him gone since after the Covid series, but I feel like it’s beating a dead horse at this point.

They’re not going to get rid of him as long as the team is in sniffing distance of a playoff spot. Maybe we can have a thread dedicated to him because it gets tiring reading about how much of an idiot he is. And I totally understand that a lot of the issues stem from him being behind the bench, but the vitriol goes on a bit thick at times.

 

[Come on]

Eller has been good.

The way some people on here have made "psychotic obsession with the coach" their entire personality is hilarious, in a concerning/embarrassing way.

 

[Darren McCord]

Eller has been good.

wasn't meant to be a knock on eller. just that he brought in a specific type of players instead of a diverse group.

 

[66-30-33]

Woulda been nice getting Trent Frederic last offseason.
