Post-Game Talk: Pens manage to hold onto scary 4 goal lead

[eXile3]

The amount of people upset about a win is insane to me. They’re not very good, they’ll lose plenty. You’re cooked as a sports if you’re worrying about lottery positioning in November guys. Like tell yourself “oh Karlsson getting points makes him flippable” or something

I’m with you. I’m just not ready to actively root for them to lose.

The defensive effort of Rust on this goal is just

It encapsulates the entire Penguins defensive zone structure.

Big Game Bryan Rust

Rust and EK trade value

With EK having that 5 million dollar signing bonus hanging over him on 7/1 I doubt he's movable. They also have NMC's.

It's hilarious and on brand that even when the Pens win they have to (almost) blow a huge lead in the process. If that doesn't just drive home what "Sullivan Hockey" is, I don't know what will.

 

[Ulf5]

It is positively amazing how many guys come here and have a career-worst year, lol.

Kessel wouldn't let his ball be cut off. He wasn't changing his game for anyone. Other than that, yeah the list is lengthy.

 

[Turin]

The kind of game I want them to play. If you’re gonna be mid, at least score while doing it.

 

[Shrimper]

2 points for Sid, that's all I care about right now

 

[KrisLetAngry]

I’m with you. I’m just not ready to actively root for them to lose.

I'm more into the A loss at this point doesn't bother me as much.

Fine we lose. Whatever

Fine we win that's a pleasant surprise.

They spent the entire third period trying to get Rust a puck for a HT…great coaching leadership there lol

You gotta pump up that trade value.

Last night's game is exactly what this team is, imo. There have been many games where they were unrecognizable, but last night is what I expect. When this team cannot score, it makes zero sense considering how shoddy they are defensively.

So, this is who we are:

- a top six that can produce.
- a decent but not great PP that can either destroy momentum or add to the offense.
- poor and badly-timed goaltending.
- terrible defense.
- a bottom-six that provides zero offense.
- horrible coaching.


If Dubas thinks they can win a lot of games with this setup, he is dumber than he looks.

i dont think he does believe they can win.

 

[HandshakeLine]

If only he’d realized that before signing 7.35 million of scratched blueline.

 

[BusinessGoose]

It is fine

Dubas is just going to pivot from terrible decisions to good ones

Just watch

Bro this is how you rebuild you just don't understand the 7 year plan.

Dubas: “

I don't even understand the 7.25 million dollar 4th pairing, I will never be a GM except on Video Games.

Is this a real headline or just a headline that should be real?
