Post-Game Talk: Pens lose to the worst team in the league

[Big Poppa Pump]

Imagine being a Pens player and having to do the fan interactions after this.

LOL

They don't give a shit. They wont lose a second of sleep tonight....

 

[BrookswasHere44]

Hall of Famer idgaf what anyone says. Still on the low end of goalies in the Hall albeit

Is that really up for debate? Obviously he is

 

[Pancakes]

I can't say I'm surprised. I hoped for better, but this outcome was always a realistic possibility.

Heads should roll after this.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Watch the new GM come in and trade for Gibson. Then Gibson has injury issues and this board will lose its collective yinzer minds.

 

[Malkinstheman]

I hope the Isles win tomorrow. Dont want to see these guys take a shit on the ice again on Thursday.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

We re-sign him 6 years at 7M AAV.

Probably, Jeff Carter will deliver him his contract

 

[Tacitus Kilgore]

Is that really up for debate? Obviously he is

It's heavily debated outside this part of the board

 

[vikingGoalie]

@Better Call Maul go ahead and explain again how this game isnt Jarry's fault because ya know he had to face a difficult shot

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

The funny thing is, Jarry's just dollar store MAF. Athletic enough to stand on his head from time to time, but f***-awful fundamentals and too f***ing prone to making the absolute dumbest f***ing play he possibly can at any given time, on any given night. Just as volatile as it gets.

Would be a career backup if not for natural talent.

Every photo of a fan getting a jersey

Granlund, Bonino and Kulikov was one helluva TDL. Also great that he traded away Marino and Matheson and extended Carter who will also come back next year. Ronny Hextall is the best, maybe he should stay here. We might have a shot at first overall pretty soon with him.

Being as bad as we can over the next few years is probably the best route to go if you think about it. We need to start accruing and compiling young quality assets.

 

[Shady Machine]

It’s weird how I have the exact same feeling I’ve had 5 years in a row with this team.

Must be Ron Hextall and Tristan Jarry’s fault!

I mean it’s definitely partly Rob Hextalls fault

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Letang, Kulikov, Petry and Jarry all had a brutal game.

PP, when it counts the most, sucked again.

How this team can play back to back well structured games and then play this way tonight is mind boggling.

In Sully we trust....

Add 2 Granlund in there, I still can't get over that move.... Un f***ing real stuck 2 more years of that hot garbage

 

[canadianguy77]

I've been doing this thing in my head this season where I imagine Sully in the post game replacing his sports cliches with American corporate nonsense talk.

"Tristian was doing an experiment in avante garde goaltending tonight."

"Bryan Rust has been establishing a bold new paradigm in the hockey space this season."

I was just surprised he didn't swap Rakell and Rust back at some point because it was apparent from the get-go that this was going to be another loafing night for Bryan. You can always tell because he looks like he's going to seriously forecheck, gets close to his guy, and then inexplicably turns and skates away when the puck is within his reach. He basically pretends to forecheck.

 

[Tacitus Kilgore]

That happened tonight, justifiably so

 

[Jaded-Fan]

The thread should have been Titled:

Pens lose to themselves. As usual.

No heart. No guts. No Win.

 

[FunkySeeFunkyDo]

@Pancakes said in the GDTsomething to the effect that its better to end it now than have to suffer through a bad first round series. Hopefully ownership cleans everything out.

He will be a back up elsewhere soon or in the minors.

His most noticeable moment was him complaining to the refs

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

If Montreal wins tomorrow this team will just lose again. I'm not watching Sullivan hockey anymore

Montreal is not winning tomorrow

It is indeed a joke that only Hextall will get fired for this.

What does the next GM even do anyways? Like I think Hextall has been largely awful, but this free agent crop sucks, we have no prospects, we have deadweight (Rust/Granlund/Carter being the most notable) and the next GM will probably be stuck with Sullivan.

Was one single adjustment made tonight?

We will see if anyone gets fired.

Would not be shocked to see nobody fired.

Going against sticktoitive-ness is blasphemy

 

[HuskerTornado]

Very first Penguins game? Well, we know who to blame this on, then.
