GDT: | Pens vs Sabres | Dec 10th 1900hrs | RoboPen save us!

[The GM]

Why is rust not playing tonight?

 

[Andy99]

The World Cup has melted all my nerves away for Pens December hockey.

I know people around the world all love it but I cannot watch soccer/football for the life of me…it interests me to watch as much as golf lol…I played soccer and enjoyed it, and I play golf and enjoy, but I never got the excitement of watching other people play it…nothing happens for long stretches in either sport lol

 

[vodeni]

Does that line up with the eye test?

not really, they don't create as much as Sid's line but what has not beenreported they play way more conservative than GCR and they don't give up as many chances as many xGA, so their overall precentage is greater

Yeah I've given it a fair shake. Only watch international play and super exciting teams like Manchester City.
I'm a pretty mellow guy and I get bored as hell watching league action. So I'm surprised hot tempered people and kids make it their #1.

Sid's shooting percentage 5 on 5 this year is 22%, that is crazy

This has to be some of his best 5v5 work in his career.

should regress more to the mean of 12-13%…otherwise it will be one of those unworldly years for him but let’s ride him while he’s hot lol

 

[AuroraBorealis]

Crosby 30 even-strength points in this his 28th game. That's actually nuts.

 

[vodeni]

This has to be some of his best 5v5 work in his career.

was just rewatching that backhand goal and it dawn on me to look at hios SH% cause his pucks are just getting through...he is shooting 2 shots per game (5 on 5) so basically scores every other game...and plus all the assists

 

[The GM]

The most dangerous lead in hockey, let’s go boyz

 

[Honour Over Glory]

I want Potash’s card too

 

[vodeni]

they swapped McGinn and Zucker, I like that

It won't last but he can compensate with more on the PP with our unit turning it up.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Brockstar get promoted to L2???

 

[vodeni]

way to kill the momentum tanger

 

[Andy99]

Zucker’s been fighting it the last few games

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Letang was there

 

[Andy99]

way to kill the momentum tanger

He hasn’t been good tonight lol…we all hate to say it because of the stroke but it’s true lol

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Nice hustle Rutta and great board work

 

[TNT87]

Nice PK there.

 

[vodeni]

He hasn’t been good tonight lol…we all hate to say it because of the stroke but it’s true lol

he has not been good all season long but I'd rather have him than ruh, it really falls in place with this line up

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Another stellar PK

 

[Gurglesons]

PK has been unbelievable for us in the B2B.

 

[vodeni]

Zucker’s been fighting it the last few games

just what I wanted to see, just mix it up and Zucker already had the best shift in the last 5 games

Rakell reminds me of a poor man's Marian Hossa. Very well rounded.
