GDT: Pens/Flyers - TNT? Wtf

[ThosePuckingPenguins]

Archibald has been much better than any of us anticipated this season. Genuinely am okay with him being in the everyday lineup.

 

[Ugene Magic]

Listen.. I'm not buying this channel. Who has a you know what? PM Me.

Archie scores, but you don't want to watch this garbage logo...

 

[canadianguy77]

Darren Pang already with a couple weird comments. Calling Crosby-Malkin-Carter a “three headed monster” and then just compared Carter Hart to Carey Price over a rather routine save.

Eh…he has to say something. I think a lot of the color commentators who mainly call for one team don’t necessarily follow hockey all that closely when their team isn’t involved.

His grit per 60 is off the charts

Yeah he’s been a nice surprise. I would never move him the line up but he’s been a great 4th liner.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Man has Archi been good. I did not see that one coming.

I think it's a great example of how sometimes we just need to trust the management

I didn't get the Archibald signing at all at the time. He was horrible in Edmonton last year and was coming off a potentially career derailing illness as a side effect from COVID. But even with that, he's been a good 4th liner and makes the amount of money you want to be paying a good 4th liner.

It's way nicer to be paying Archibald like $900k to get these results than pay Tanev $3.5 million to get the results he gave for the Penguins, even with Tanev being clearly better than Archibald.

Me when the NHL is on a niche TV channel that I don't pay for



I'm currently in Nuremberg and waiting for a 2 am bus back to Berlin, so I'll actually be up to watch this game.

Damn thats a long trip, Willkommen in Deutschland! How long will you stay here in Germany?

Start looked shacky but I feel like it got a lot better mid period and the 1-0 is huge

 

[canadianguy77]

Archibald opens up a lot more space than Rust. I think there’s a decent enough chance that he would work well with Zucker and Geno. No reason not to try unless you’re overly concerned with Bryan Rusts feelings.

 

[Trade]

Alright fine, get Heinen out of the lineup. He’s the opposite of an energy player at the moment.

I remembered liking him early on in his Pens career because he could skate, but yeah it didn't look good.

Like you said, sometimes management gets it right with these 50/50 signings.

I'm leaving tomorrow

I was in Berlin for 3 days and Nuremberg for 2 days, and I'm flying out tomorrow morning. I'm a bit Berlin-ed out, because I've been there 3 times already, but Nuremberg was awesome. The Nuremberg Christmas Market was really cool.

 

[Andy99]

did The. announcers just call us one of the best PK units in the nhl?

 

[SomeDude]

Hart, what is you doing?

 

[Hotep Numminen]

is anyone else's TNT broadcast playing a bruins vs. ducks game?

 

[Pancakes]

I love how aggressive we're being on PP breakouts lately. It's extremely disruptive and it's giving teams a hard time.

 

[WickedWrister]

An elite goal scorer like Archibald gets those calls

 

[reino]

Rust is ruining 2nd line. He refuses to work in corners

 

[BusinessGoose]

Archibald is still a terrible signing for your professional hockey team. But he's been better than some players making a lot more. So. I think that says more about THEM than HIM.

 

[eXile3]

People wanting to trade Teddy B. Heart and soul of our PK!

 

[Empoleon8771]

I don't like Petry as a PPQB but I like Petry as a shoot first guy in Rust's spot.

 

[Josey Wales]

Does Tortellini have a look constantly of a bad case of the Shits

Well Berlin is a lot different from most german cities so if you want to experience Germany then I'd definitly recommend you to see some of the other cities as well. Have you been out west as well in your prior trips?

To be fair, the Penguins are up to 14th in the PK on the year at this point. Blueger coming back has made a night and day difference for the PK. It started out horribly but has been really good recently.

 

[Hotep Numminen]

geno and sid ended up on the point together there. seems inadvisable
