Series Talk: Pens vs Habs Round 1 Best of Five - Episode 5: Camme toé

[Gurglesons]

Just tuning in... Lange making it sound like the Flyers brought their A game and the Pens brought their C game.

Pretty much. Pens look discombobulated as f***.

 

[ColePens]

Yeah, but that's Jarry in net now.

They showed the replay of the goal.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

I’m really enjoying a very boring game. This Covid shit is real.

 

[DeSero]

The ice looks atrocious. Might as well put a rubber ball out there with how much the puck is bouncing.

 

[KIRK]

2 shifts in a row G line got going.

I want to see one shift where sid skates hard and im good to go.

Maybe see McCann stop looking like a passenger

This is why I don't know what to take from this one.

Geno slipped two shifts ago and since then he's been moving, and it's facilitated everything.

If he's screwing around-- and this goes for Jake and Tanger and others today too-- at less than 100% against a team playing with structure like the Flyers, it's going to look like a train wreck.

 

[KIRK]

They showed the replay of the goal.

Oh okay. I've got the NBCSN feed.

 

[PhilThrillPill]

Classic Tanger, athletacism makes him beat a player 1-1 only to brainfart.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

This ice is going to mean “unfit to play”s all over the place if this is the standard.

if only L2 and L3 were any good....McCann ghosting this game is worrying...

McCann is so damn inconsistent.

 

[Andy99]

The ice looks atrocious. Might as well put a rubber ball out there with how much the puck is bouncing.

looks like it’s going to be that way for this restart since this is the first game and it’s already crap

 

[KIRK]

Wow. 1st shot for Philly in 15 minutes per NBCSN.

 

[Andy99]

Marino is so beautiful

 

[vodeni]

I would play Lafferty and Rodrigues with Horny

 

[KIRK]

We don't deserve Marino. What a great stick play.

 

[ColePens]

WHAT A HORNY SHIFT

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Marino looks very strong at least, as usual. One positive.

 

[KIRK]

WHAT A HORNY SHIFT

 

[Gurglesons]

score already L2

 

[vodeni]

2 shifts in a row G line got going.

I want to see one shift where sid skates hard and im good to go.

Maybe see McCann stop looking like a passenger

1. no problems
2. no problems
3. problem

 

[KIRK]

score already L2

As long as they do it on Saturday.

They've turned it up a notch. Now just nobody get hurt.

 

[Gurglesons]

@KIRK Zucker flashing his hands there with that give and go with Geno.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Marino is my hero.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Letang has hit more skates with passes today than sticks.

 

[LOGiK]

penguins look disastrous.

four months off and they pick up right where they left off.

 

[Kristopher Letang]

This passive D coverage on our zone is killing me inside

 

[KIRK]

@KIRK Zucker flashing his hands there with that give and go with Geno.

This reminds me of the scrimmage on Saturday. L2 looked like crap, like they were out for a skate. Turned it up a notch early in the 3rd, and it was a totally different story. Similar today. Clearly there's another level there. Maybe two. I suspect it's the 'games count' desperation you'll see from them starting Saturday.

As I said, same thing as Letang . . . what he does only works if he's all in. If he half asses it against a group playing the right way, then it's not going to happen.

EDIT: There it is.
