Speculation: Penguins off day talk thread: Yes, Sully is still the coach

[vodeni]

Not surprised…Rust broke his hand or wrist or has some torn ligaments…

If Sid keeps scoring the same pace with Rakell and Smith, he is definitvely from another planet..

 

[DesertedPenguin]

@Honour Over Glory can rejoice... Puustinen on the first power play.

I wouldn’t be surprised…it’s going to have to be Sid putting the puck in the net though because those guys have been really inconsistent this season at that

I just will continue to not understand playing Lars Eller on the top unit. It's willful stupidity.

Mike Sullivan has a way of taking players I like and appreciate and eventually make me resent them.

I kinda thought it might be a shoulder the way he was hit. Who knows. I'd have to watch the video again.
Finally get to see Smith with Crosby I guess. Boost hos value hopefully.

I'd put DOC out there over Eller 9 times out of 8.

Big Puus and his cannon ready to shread opposition goalies.

Shit man, they have me half-resenting a genuinely fantastic person and one of the top-5 best players ever to play because they're too stupid and cowardly to make serious changes as long as he's around. They've for some reason decided Sid and Sully are interlinked and cannot be separated. It's maddening.

I think the worst part about that is it's almost entirely of the organizations creation. Sid has never shown any signs of wanting to be involved in "the process." I'm sure he makes his preference known. I'm sure he does his usual diplomatic song and dance when asked about Sullivan etc. But it's on them that they think he'll like... throw a shitfit and skip town if they fire the dingdong coaching staff or even just change his linemates or something.

They are walking on eggshells that aren't even there. If Sid was some meddling diva we'd have SOME inkling of it after nearly 20 years... c'mon.

For sure. I never believe the "Sid's controlling things" bullshit. It's just that they're all too terrified of even mildly inconveniencing/annoying him that they just curl up into the fetal position and accept this shit sandwich we've been getting for six years and running.

Need him out there as a 2nd C for faceoffs in the D zone.

[Andy99]

Yeah, that’s no bueno but hopefully it causes us to lose more games this week so we can sell at the deadline lol

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Sucks for Rust and the team. He was looking like he was starting to get back to his early season form.

It's because Reirden likes him from his days as his HC in Washington.

You know, five years ago when Eller had more offensive upside but was still never an offensive dynamo?

WRONG, The Players do what they want, BUT please continue to make an ass of yourself

ok, so if that's the case then who's fault is that?

Well at least they got that Malkin off the top unit. It's a relief that they were able to diagnose and solve that problem. Side assist to many members, here. Boy you guys were right on the money. They look downright DANGEROUS, now.

What does this even mean?

Sidgets what he wants, If He was pissed about Reirden's PP he would be GONE, same with Sullivan ! I know you are Immature & Ignorant But that is how it goes with Superstars on a team

ok, so if that's the case then who's fault is that?

UMMMMM do you know the 1st Transaction The Craps did after Trading for Jagr ?

 

[Al Smith]

Never ceases to amaze me how long it takes to evaluate their injuries.

If they were using him in front of the net to muck things up or something, I could at least see the logic in it. He was on the right half wall last game.
