If I had my way - Sullivan would have been fired years ago and our #1 would be Gustavsson and if they still drafted Blomqvist by not trading Gus, then a Gus-Blom tandem.

You monumental twat.


Except I want Blomqvist to be the goalie (with Larsson as the back-up) and don't want either Ned or Jarry, but that wouldn't fit you being an absolute f***wit you dumb wankbucket.
No. No, im not in love. I want this totally other scenario to happen in my head.
Next three posts are sonnets to TJ.

I love Sid/Geno/Letang but I don't really feel bad for them tbh. Part of the blame is also on them for being so careless/lazy this season. They could also get a new coach if they really wanted to

Had my own hockey so missed this one.

Lolling at another blown two goal lead though
Crosby being -2 is obviously the entire team letting him down and not Sidney Crosby playing poorly at all this season, Crosby could never play poorly, neither can Marcus Pettersson, Matt Grzelcyk, Erik Karlsson, nor could Mike Sullivan coach this team poorly.

On the bright side, I don't think we'll be worrying about blowing a 2-0 lead on Friday!
They blew a 2-0 lead to the Jets earlier in the season before they laid an egg on the entire west coast trip.

They had a 2-0 lead and blew it to lose 6-3. They went up 2-0. Jets then scored 3 straight to make it 3-2 and Pens tied it in the beginning of the 3rd only for the Jets to score 3 straight again. Ned was shelled for 35 shots, obviously all his fault, that's how we roll here right?

In order to mediate the Crosby vs. Jarry debate as to who cost us this game, I think we can all agree it was actually Ryan Graves' fault.

As far as the D who actually played:

Shea looked good at times (though not as good as the homers on the TV broadcast made him out to be).
St. Ivany.... not so much.
Grzelcyk is awful at everything except for being adequate on the power play.
Pickering was largely invisible, which isn't the worst thing for a totally inexperienced rookie to be since it means he wasn't f***ing up constantly.

When 58 comes back, 24 should sit and Shea can move to his natural side if he's staying in the lineup.

Grz is just an absolutely dreadful player and I don't understand how he keeps getting played anymore, just bone headed play one after another with him and Sid is playing some of his worst hockey defensively since basically the 20 game streak last season heading into this year. He's about as bad as Bryan Rust defensively.

People on here fighting and shit and I’m looking at the point percentages and we’re in the bottom 6 baby. You have to think that at some point the Preds dig their way out of their hole so I’d say we’re a solid bottom 5 team. That should be good news to you guys.

The bizarre thing is the east is so bad that the Pens aren't out of the playoff race either
