GDT: Pens vs Avs | 7pm MT | Come Win in Denver, Sid

[sethro109]

We absolutely deserve to lose this game. So f***ing sloppy.

Days off kill this team. Like RIAL said, Bednar is proud how little this team practices, and it's f***ing killing us. Repetition is the key to mastery, and our mother f***ers have had so many days off, their muscle memory forgot how to make a simple pass.

Maybe the real Stanley cup is the second line centers we’ve tried along the way.

 

[chet1926]

Another garbage game, not shocking. This team is trash.

Side note, what the f*** are the refs watching out there. Apparently the Pens are allowed to do whatever they please and the Avs get called for every little thing. Refs have to be better than this shit.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Bednar, play better D, skate harder.

All forwards go to the redline immediately.

 

[Chibby]

Jesus this team needs players who actually put the puck in the net

 

[Pokecheque]

Drouin’s lack of finish is maddening right now.

 

[SoundwaveIsCharisma]

Hahahahaha, Colby suggested the Avs should’ve taken a timeout to settle the team down after a bad start to the period. He clearly doesn’t know that Bednar’s not actually involved in the games, he’s just there because he has to be

5 unanswered goals for Anaheim against the Oil

lol

That Nuke-Lehky 2 on 0 is just zero awareness stuff from Nuke. You have to at least fake the pass. Do something to make the goalie guess. What a f***ing waste. Would have been a 2-0 game.

 

[The Kingslayer]

The next shift after Makar f***s up he has the puck on the blue line and plenty of room and traffic in front of the net....passes to Lindgren. Quinn would have shot that and something good would have happened.

No fake no nothing. Head down shoot lol. I really thought he was going to cut across the crease on that one Jagr style.

That's why Quinn's the captain and Frail just gets the A.

Yeah it wasn't his best play for sure, but I can't fault the guy for actually taking the shot. Too many times it's team fails to get the shot off so at least he made the goalie make a play.

 

[nammerus]

Looks like the Lindgren blockbuster kind of solved a lot of our problems and plugged up some major holes. Well done CMac.

Practice also builds chemistry, you find out what your teammates tendencies are, you key in on where your linemates are going to be. This team does things so ass backwards sometimes

The Avs have been putrid tonight. Shocked this is a 1-1 hockey game.

Numbers through 40:

Shot Attempts 40-36 Penguins
Shots on Goal 24-15 Penguins
Scoring Chances 24-16 Penguins
High Danger Chances 12-9 Penguins
xGF 2.67 - 1.84 Penguins

Wedgewood more than doing his part tonight.

 

[CobraAcesS]

I'm usually not this type, but healthy and without Landeskog there is no one who can actually get this team firing early and consistently in games.

We have no Captain, and no one is worthy of it.

 

[missionAvs]

Yeah it wasn't his best play for sure, but I can't fault the guy for actually taking the shot. Too many times it's team fails to get the shot off so at least he made the goalie make a play.

Again, I don't mind the shot. It's the fact that that's what everyone and their mother knew he was doing blue line in that's the problem. Ned literally didn't even have to think about Lehky. Nuke just went in head down and shot.

What were the HDCF for the first?

 

[Tweaky]

How the hell was pulling Makar down on a zone entry not a penalty when they called Toews for so much less?

My days of taking this reffing seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Yeah this has been a shockingly bad effort tonight. Not a single player looks like they give a shit. Very disappointing.

lol

And Draisaitl is the only player scoring goals for them. They might be in worse position than we are going into the playoffs, but somehow they’re the favorites to win the cup

 

[nammerus]

What were the HDCF for the first?

8-4 Pens. So about even.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Again, I don't mind the shot. It's the fact that that's what everyone and their mother knew he was doing blue line in that's the problem. Ned literally didn't even have to think about Lehky. Nuke just went in head down and shot.

So Nuke is over doing it thinking shot, the rest of the team isn't shooting.

Been saying that. Yeah, they need a 2C, but they need a guy or two that can score.

 

[nammerus]

Lindgren also rocking a stellar 9% xGF. Who knew if you were dog shit on one team, that it might transfer over to another.
