GDT: Qualifying Round: Penguins vs. Canadiens - Game 1

[Andy99]

Price has easy looks at shots because we don’t have traffic in front of him...

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Which is why you want Sid against Danault. Let them play to a draw and the L2 speed and Geno's size exploit Suzuki. As I just said to @ColePens, the flow of this one changed once the matchups changed.

Makes sense.

BART against Suzuki.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

What's with all the panicking in here?

 

[edog37]

IF the Pens play like this, they will win. They dominated play

yep, just keep playing our game & we’ll be fine...

 

[BHD]

Gallagher scares the crap outta me

 

[KIRK]

Makes sense.

BART against Suzuki.

Back to line on line now.

 

[Bingo71]

I could use an analogy for their defensive zone play that involves primates and footballs...

 

[Pittsburgh1776]

So if Sid isn't able to play at his level, do we load up Geno's line with Guentzel or leave this as is?

 

[Pens x]

Lots of shots but most are low quality chances.

 

[domaug]

There is being frustrated and there is crying like insecure little bitches at the first sign of adversity.

They got a lucky break. We are owning the play. Calm down.

nope, with all the shit that's going on in the world right now, i'll be mad if i want to be mad. i'm allowed to be f***ing mad. f*** that.

 

[SUBdrewgANS]

What's with all the panicking in here?

it's always this way

 

[edog37]

What's with all the panicking in here?

It’s typical for the inter webs since we’re supposed to win every game 25-0 with no shots for them on goal...

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Gosh Weber is slowwwwww.

Make him chase the puck.

 

[Woodrow]

It's too bad our game seems to involve playing Jack Johnson.

 

[BHD]

What's with all the panicking in here?

Don't expect us to settle down until they at least tie it. Right now, this series screams Halak.

 

[ColePens]

Our backchecking has been terrific.

 

[KIRK]

So if Sid isn't able to play at his level, do we load up Geno's line with Guentzel or leave this as is?

No, but with Geno playing the way he is, it behooves Sully to be creative in how he uses him.

 

[pensfan71]

So if Sid isn't able to play at his level, do we load up Geno's line with Guentzel or leave this as is?

I'd leave it because otherwise Sid's line will have close to no chance. I like Zucker but he's not gonna carry the play like Guentzel can

 

[Andy99]

So if Sid isn't able to play at his level, do we load up Geno's line with Guentzel or leave this as is?

give him Jake...

 

[K Fleur]

It doesn’t matter how good your team is; playing a defender as bad as JJ loses playoff series for teams all the time.

 

[Bingo71]

Price has easy looks at shots because we don’t have traffic in front of him...

Yep. Name the Pens’ “net front presence”...

 

[WayneSid9987]

Going pretty much as expected here. Outshooting and losing was point one on the expected board.

 

[PensandCaps]

Some great defensive plays by 58 there

 

[TKalltheTime]

I’m sorry but it’s embarrassing you see JJ back out on the ice after that exchange so fast. No accountability. None.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

nope, with all the shit that's going on in the world right now, i'll be mad if i want to be mad. i'm allowed to be f***ing mad. f*** that.

You are allowed to be mad.

I am allowed to tell you how ridiculous it is to be that mad after dominating most of the play and had a bounce go against us.
