The good news is Michkov appears to blow.

He's been "Torts'd." Which is like being "Sullied," but way worse.

 

[Duffy13]

The back to backs at the end of the month should be interesting, Bunting may not have any teeth left lol

And now, onto this meaningless 4 Nations nonsense…

 

[metalan2]

I mean, 2 goals should have easily won that game. That's how lifeless the flyers were.

 

[Pancakes]

I'll give this team credit. They suck but they do work really hard.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Good.

Pens leapfrog the Flyers in draft order to seventh.

4 Pejorative Slurs in stripes and none saw that.

I'd be sending that tape to the league, that's a scumbag move by Laughton

 

[BobCole]

Well, for all of the whining we've done about the team losing while looking listless, you can't say they didn't try tonight.

On the Deserve-to-win-o-meter, they were 84% likely to win tonight. That's the 14th game the Pens lost this season when favored to win, compared to only 6 games they've won that they deserved to lose.

Flyers have been a team of Tom Wilsons since they were formed.

Makes rooting for the Superbowl difficult. No one wants a three-peat. But, Philly.

I may have to root for the Taylor Swifts.

I'll take KC any day over the Eagles.

 

[BobCole]

This was a game between two very, very bad teams. It was actually incredible to witness how our team of misfits kept the Flyers hemmed in their zone for long, long, stretches.

But this Pens lineup obviously lacks offensive skill and finish. Also, I feel like Letang never makes a great play with the puck on his stick in situations when we're pushing for offense. He makes fewer boneheaded decisions in those situations than in the past, but it's a lot of double clutching (nothing new for him) and safe passes that don't lead to offense.

Both teams can get E-coli for all I care

And I don’t even watch/like football.

 

[Turin]

Blom kinda lost the game for them. Oh well, probably for the best

If the pens do finish to pick 7th overall; I'd be happy with Desnoyers, O' Brien or if McQueen would drop when the penguins pick.

POJ didn't help on the second goal, but I'd give him another shot.

Not kind of. He for sure did.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

Not kind of. He for sure did.

But, that's what we want now, right?

 

[metalan2]

Penguins should have realistically won Anaheim, Sam Jose, Seattle, and for sure Philly. They'd be firmly in a playoff spot if they did. Losing them all in regulation was way more improbable than winning them all.

 

[Gurglesons]

Pono makes Acciari look good…

 

[metalan2]

But, that's what we want now, right?

I don't. I know it's likely better for us, but we still have Sullivan, so if he's out coach I'd like to win as much as we can now. We can not be planning for the future if Sullivan is going to be our coach.

 

[ImporterExporter]

Pono on pace to get 9 minutes tonight. Even when the prospects we want to show, get forced into the lineup by Dubas, Sullivan just buries them with the conviction of a f***ing statue.

Welp, I rest my case.

Mike Sullivan is such an asshat.

 

[Turin]

Pono makes Acciari look good…

They should like, play him and develop him and stuff.

 

[Andy99]

Tomasino also had less ice time than Acciari…and we were icing a terrible lineup who couldn’t score in a brothel…the coach is a moron…

 

[Andy99]

Also, someone tell our top 2-3 coach that scoring goals wins games, not having the most offensive zone time…lol

“Obviously, we’re disappointed that we didn’t get the result,” coach Mike Sullivan told reporters who attended Saturday’s game. “But I thought we competed hard all night long, and for long stretches of the game I thought we controlled the game, we controlled territory. We had a significant amount of offensive-zone time.”
