GDT: PRE-SEASON | Penguins at Chicago Blackhawks | Sept 19 | 8 p.m. | TV: ROOT

[Jesus Vitale]

Bort is playing mean. if he can keep that up and not be stupid and give up a ton of chances/take too many penalties, that can be really good for the Pens' 3rd pairing.

 

[Waffle Fries]

And justifiably so: Bennett shot instead of trying to force a pass through three guys to Sid.

How silly of him!

14+87+19 = 120

Crosby's highest points total in a season, it's clearly fate.

Well you can't argue with that logic.

 

[KIRK]

14+87+19 = 120

Crosby's highest points total in a season, it's clearly fate.

19 + 71 + 18 = 108

I'll take a 108 point season from Geno.

How silly of him!



Well you can't argue with that logic.

See above. Yes you can.

 

[Nietzsche Zone Play]

there are teams starting the season with Brian Boyle as #1 C and Justin Abdelkader on the top line.

a little perspective is needed when I see people posting possible lineups and thinking it's a joke.

MacKinnon is starting on the 3rd line. if a generational talent can start off there, I think Bennett and his 26 games of experience will survive this coaching atrocity (which probably won't even happen).

 

[KIRK]

My kingdom for a Niskanen shot on net.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Stop giving Niskanen the puck.

 

[Jesus Vitale]

wow. Joey V is a classy guy. instead of rightfully beating up that loser, he let him off with a warning.

I hope he thanks him after the game for showing such mercy.

 

[KIRK]

I better see Sid and Beau 4 on 4, although I won't.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Kobasew thinks the game at a real solid level. You can just see that he completely understands what is going on. He intrigues me.


I wouldn't be shocked if Bennett put up 60 points this year if used properly. His passing is elite.

Kobasew is looking like a great find so far. Definitely will help this year

Depending on how he is used, potential is there. See if DB gives him pp time and 2nd line duty

 

[Common Sense]

Can't believe Crosby didn't just shoot on that Bennett feed.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Which Pen will have the brain fart or lazy moment?

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Can't believe Crosby didn't just shoot on that Bennett feed.

Coaches order

 

[mpp9]

Hey Sid. It's ok if you try. Haven't won a game in awhile.

 

[MeticulouslyDishevel]

NOOOO> Sid's down.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

High stick, **** they miss that

 

[Speaking Moistly]

FFS Crosby. His head is a magnet.

 

[Ragamuffin Gunner]

how do they miss that high stick?

 

[vodeni]

Sid,
man quit while you are ahead, you will be decapitated soon....

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

SO, ain't complaining

 

[MeticulouslyDishevel]

So, who is DB going to put up in the shootout?

 

[HuskerTornado]

Uh oh, Sid doesn't look so hot.

-high stick

 

[KIRK]

how do they miss that high stick?

You're complaining that they didn't call Sid for 2 minutes for embellishing?

 

[WayneSid9987]

So, who is DB going to put up in the shootout?

Crosby, Kunitz, Bennett?

 

[Jaded-Fan]

How many times over his career has Crosby been hit in the head region and the refs ignored it completely?

 

[KIRK]

So, who is DB going to put up in the shootout?

I wouldn't mind seeing Bennett and Pouliot myself.

Crosby, Kunitz, Bennett?

Probably. This game is big.
