Post-Game Talk: Pens vs Holtbyism's laptop - 12:30 EST

[McVechkin]

I can tell you right now this new pp formation is not the answer.

 

[Corby78]

Teams have no say in the scheduling. NBC likely gets to select the matchups they want per their contract.

I’m aware, it was sarcasm.

 

[peterthegreat12]

Decline the PP. Moving Kuzy off the first unit hasn’t worked.

Ted should schedule a rodeo at COA every Saturday and Sunday at noon during the season.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

This PP is a joke now

 

[bur and 666 others]

It's unbelievable with all turnovers. All reckless passes. Hopefully our PP hasn't been figured out yet

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

Technical lapses. Lost angles, little missteps in lateral movement. It's all there, just not catching an eye more often because he has managed to rack up Ws so far.

So the way goals are scored in the NHL.


If you think you're going to find a goalie that doesn't struggle with this every so often you're going to have a bad time.

 

[SpinningEdge]

We now are approaching 3 1/2 minutes without a set up or shot on power play

just give it to Ovi and let him try ripping it at this point

 

[Melkor]

Ovechkin is literally useless on that right side. What is he doing there?..

 

[mad4comp]

Absolutely shameful. forsythe should be fired asap.

 

[Corby78]

How can you screw up the pp this bad?

 

[searle]

The lines for the bathrooms must be pretty long as soon as we get given a PP

 

[Sam Spade]

If they don't do anything, complaints, if they switch stuff up, complaints.......

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

I’m aware, it was sarcasm.

You didn't use the sarcasm emoji, it was open season.

So...what exactly did you want to hear from me then?

 

[Capsman]

Has become by far the worst PP in the league. Forsythe should be ashamed taking a paycheck.

 

[Corby78]

Well that was gross.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Turnovers were 10-0 in that period and Caps still had better chances.

they deserve to be losing - but you can tell how much better they are than the Pens. That’s good to see at least.

 

[Dr John Carlson]

Pens fans' vitriol for Ovechkin in their GDT is a lot worse than normal. They're really sweating over the goal record chase. Love to see it.

 

[kicksavedave]

There will be complaints until they fix it.... because, fans.

 

[SpinningEdge]

Absolutely shameful. forsythe should be fired asap.

Forsythe is desperate

 

[bur and 666 others]

btw, without all doom and gloom. I like that this is an exhibition A of two different styles of hockey: physicality vs speed, executed on high level.

 

[Melkor]

If they don't do anything, complaints, if they switch stuff up, complaints.......

Somewhat true. It's not out of realm of possibility that this personnel just can't be more effective at other disposals.

 

[CapitalsCupReality]

Oh brother.....technical mistakes are made by every goalie.....yes he’s learning.

The W’s aren’t hiding anything......I think we’re experienced enough fans to not simply be blinded by a team stat “W’s”......gimme a break.

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

I thought the PP in the Nash game had moments where it looked better. Sustained zone time, cycling the puck, decent entries. I also think it had horrific moments too.




I'll never understand how you can have the same guys on the PP for years and suddenly hit a wall.


Forget the blue line issues, we are going to struggle in the post season if we don't figure out our special teams.
