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

[metalan2]

Someone said like two weeks ago the Penguins inflict maximum pain on the fans and themselves and the season would end in maximum pain. This is it.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

I would be shocked if Hextall isn't gone. Surely FSG wants to put their own guy in there.

Sullivan seems safe regardless because of that damned extension. Sigh

The thing is, I like Hextall for a rebuilding team.

The build this year was an obvious fail. But if they tear it down I am far from opposed to keeping him to rebuild.

Yep, GM change likely won’t help us for years unless we get some generational player in the draft….meanwhile, the one move that could help immediately with all the NMC contracts would be firing Sullivan

 

[canadianguy77]

His most noticeable moment was him complaining to the refs

He got in the way and gave the puck away on a few cycles and sustained possessions too. Basically his norm.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

6 years 100 million for Injarry. Our big FA will be a 20 mil a year PK specialist that Sully can masterbate all summer on how hes gonna use him.

Nobody finishes under Sully. He'll be edging all summer.

But I'm not here to kink shame, just shit on Hextall, Sullivan, Jarry and Rust. (And every blueliner, and almost every forward)

 

[HuskerTornado]

Beat the 2 worst teams in the league to get in the playoffs they said.

Hold our everclear

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Does it even f***ing matter? This team is done winning playoff rounds for a decade+.
This goalie or that. Who gives a crap?

Apparently a lot of you.

 

[Pancakes]

We're the 14th worst team in the league at the moment, meaning if we won the lottery we could move up to #4, where we'd likely be able to draft either Leo Carlsson or Matvei Mitchkov.

Both players would be franchise changing.

So uh someone go find CP and have him get out that clover again

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

We will see if anyone gets fired.

Would not be shocked to see nobody fired.

Even Hextall?

I wouldn't be surprised if he's the only one gone.

But a new GM has to come in and clean house.

Start with the coaching staff and scout team.

This organization is stale, has been for years and desperately needs a new set of of eyes.

Ohhhhh just you wait.

The Isles will lose tomorrow just to see the Pens lose again on Thursday. THAT'S maximum pain.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

That happened tonight, justifiably so

Ain't that the truth mate.

I wonder how that jersey thing went. I turned it off after the 5th goal.

 

[MetalheadPenguinsFan]

Hair wanker is on ignore. Hair guy can be wanktankerous.

Quoted because I absolutely love these two terms.

And your avatar/user title is spot on too my dude!!

As usual.

 

[Borgir]

Glad it's finally all over. I have a busy spring.

Why on earth would you like Hextall for anything? Anyone who thinks Mikael Granlund is a good player to acquire is not someone I want anywhere near running my team, unless the goal is to tank but we won't tank hard enough with Sid and Geno here.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

Just so the people that have you on ignore get your message (I imagine there is a direct correlation).

lol, thanks.

I got sooooo much shit about all those meaningless points we pissed away in Oct/Nov. I'm right, again.

 

[hiptanaka]

Sullivan may be a worse coach than Disco Dipshit, who actually managed to get this team into the playoffs and win a series or two.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Was one single adjustment made tonight?

They played the game the right way.
The sticktoitiveness was there. Bounces didn't go their way, the Hawks are better than their record suggests.

Probably what Sully said.

 

[LOGiK]

I must know this....

Was it Hextal or Sullivan who thought Granlund was a player this team needed?

Who ever thought of it should be fired. Who ever referred the message should be fired. Who ever executed it should be fired. EVERYONE FIRED!

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

If Hextall hasn't already been informed to pack his shit, I doubt I can even so much as check the score for this team until Sid retires. Ain't worth it if FSG can't even manage that much of an effort. I don't expect Sully to be fired, by Hextall or his successor. He should be, but he won't be.

But if Hextall isn't fired immediately upon the season's end, I don't even know what to say. That'd be unbelievable, but this organization's done a lot of unbelievable (derogatory) things in the past several years.

 

[Andy99]

Letang has always been superfluous (see Hainsey, R., 2017), but not sure what more you want out of Crosby and Malkin at the end of the season after Sullivan relies on them 20+ minutes a night all year long.

Exactly, people dont realize how much they’re overplayed during the season because the coach can’t roll four lines, so by game 81 and ages 35+, what can you realistically expect?

 

[Pens x]

Good god. What does this idiot have to do to convince everyone he’s awful at his job? Why would anyone want Hextall around for another minute???

It’s shameful it took people as long as it did to realize Hextall sucks, but it’s downright scary some people would even entertain the idea of him coming back.

 

[Tacitus Kilgore]

Ain't that the truth mate.

I turned it off after 3-1 Holy f***ing shit they potted 5 on us, as If I didn't lose my yinzer mind already

 

[Flying Dego]

This thread title is misleading. The Hawks are the 30th team in the league! Much better than last place.

 

[LOGiK]

Should've dealt Rust at the TDL last season, should've let everyone walk this summer, and let Sid decide if he wanted to go down with the ship or chase a Cup elsewhere.

Well, the team should've f***ing nuked the FO and coaching staff in 2020, but Mario and his pedophile-adjacent bud were just as MIA and dumb as FSG's been.

They stick together man... they are like ticks.
No idea why.
Money?
