GDT: PuppyBowl XI.... errrr Pens vs. Nashville!

[PensPlz]

I have no clue how this team will do in the playoffs. That was aimed at the people who want Bylsma back.

I'll remember this if we continue this pace and Florida gets hot and we don't even make the playoffs.

 

[AquaticBirdman]

We're getting shutout. I'm more skeptical of Fleury than most people, but when you score zero goals, it's not the tender's fault that you lost, whether he lets in 1 goal or 10.

There are way too many worse things about this team to point out before we can start up the Fleury hate wagon again. Our reigning MVP is currently on pace for the worst season of his career.

 

[Shrimper]

Bort shoots the puck onto his own net with force hahahahahahahhhaahahahh my god he's horrible!,

I hope we let him go in the summer.

 

[H382]

I'm gonna go ahead and blame Letang for for this loss by not getting any assists today.

 

[Ugene Magic]

A 4-0 loss at home just isn't acceptable. I hope Mario enjoys looking down at all the empty seats right now.

Why?

Those seats resulted in $$$$$, just think of the savings on all the wear'n tear.

 

[eXile59]

I still think we should have looked at Keenan. This team needs a culture change. We got Bylsma version 2.0

 

[Shockmaster]

I'll remember this if we continue this pace and Florida gets hot and we don't even make the playoffs.

So you think Bylsma is the solution to the team's current problems?

Losing games like this might be better for us than squeaking out a win in a bad game like we did with Disco. Only if management is willing to do something about it though.

 

[AquaticBirdman]

So he can spread his PP magic over all aspects of the team?

PP needs to be willing to shoot the puck and actually get it on net. Last I saw Tocchet was wearing a shirt and tie, and not a uniform and skates.

 

[roquay]

Even how bad this team is right now I'm baffled how people want Bylsma back.

Exactly. MJ at least deserves a playoff run with a full squad first before the "let's fire MJ" starts

Miss Me Yet??????

 

[mikethelegacy]

Literally the 4th line just got two shifts in the last 2 minutes of the game. No shifts for Sid. Joke. Absolute joke.

 

[ColePens]

Was Spaling our only good player today?

JR really is the key. Shero was too buddy-buddy with Bylsma to get rid of certain players on the roster. I don't get the sense JR is like that.

Exactly. And honestly, it has to be hard to play behind a team who just isn't putting in any effort. Fleury isn't playing well. But its really freaking hard to play well in this situation. Elite goalies can carry their team through this kind of game and the Caps game. Fleury isn't that. He never will be. He isn't paid to be. There are 4 or 5 goalies in the world who can look good in a game like this on anything close to a regular basis.

Why should you play Sid in a 4-0 game?

Blaming the coach stuff is almost as bad as blaming the goaltender stuff. This is a slog. Way the game's officiated makes games like this common now. You win those with muscle and speed from the forwards and quick decisions by the D.

Personnel is still the problem.

 

[AquaticBirdman]

I'm tired of blaming everything on injuries. We were missing Malkin, COmeau, and Erhoff today. Some pretty important players, yes, but when you still have the likes of Crosby, Hornqvist, Perron, Bennett, Kunitz, Letang, Martin, Despres, and Downie in the lineup then you still have enough talent at your disposal to at least score a god damn GOAL!!

 

[PensPlz]

So you think Bylsma is the solution to the team's current problems?

No. Just saying he set franchise records with worse players and made it to the playoffs. Is anyone 100% confident we have a playoff spot?

 

[KIRK]

I still think we should have looked at Keenan. This team needs a culture change. We got Bylsma version 2.0

I'd like to say that would've been worse.

 

[Ogrezilla]

Was Spaling our only good player today?

He's the only one I noticed positively.

 

[Goalie Ledoux]

This team is whole lot of sad. Going to be a long stretch to the end of this season.

 

[Ogelthorpe]

He'll never out do me in the photo bombing.

Well Played!

 

[Iffyiffiffer]

Fire MJ and promote Tocchet, anyon?

No thanks, he is just as much all talk as MJ.

I disagree. There are teams in this league that are able to get results without having the benefit of the talent that we currently have at our disposal. Enough's enoguh.
