Unfortunately another Penguins game, Jackets taking us closer to lottery odds.

It's sad and depressing to see the careers of Crosby, Malkin, Letang and Karlson end like this. I sincerely hope for the players, for the fans of Pittsburgh that they are all traded, if possible, for draft picks and good prospects. And traded to Stanley Cup contenders.
 
I don't blame Crosby for wanting out right now. Deal with this play for another two years? No thanks. Shea minus three tonight, but Sullivan will still play him over Pickerning tomorrow night if Letang is still out. Now I just want them to tank for a top three pick at the draft.
 
At this point it's about regaining organizational standards. Those have gone out the window the last 3 years.
I want to be as bad as possible! The only way out is accruing high picks, prospects and aptly developing them. If you can trade Sid or Geno and retain Salary do it!
 
Imagine what that locker room is like right now. Anyone that gets traded is basically getting a emergency evac off the Titanic

Sully might actually get fired it this keeps up
Firing Sully would do nothing at this point, that ship has sailed. It would only change our potential top3 pick to maybe potential top10 pick. This is not a playoffs team, not even with best coach on planet. But it also isn´t THIS BAD of a roster neither. At this point, they are better "constructed" with Sullivan behind the bench, though.

February 21st is the only date I see this happening. K12 Kyle won't fire him until after that 4 Nations crap.

They gotta do him the way San Jose did Quinn - Ride the dipshit until he wins them the lottery, draft a new franchise stud, fire the dipshit coach after you've won the lottery or a top 3 pick.

Those looking at xs and os failures are missing the real issue. On top of lack of talent, coaching, goalie sucking, etc. the team simply has given up and accepted losing.

I suppose in a way that is on coaching as well.

But, at some point it is more an acceptance of reality.

If the team simply is not good enough, then all the rah rah motivating speeches in the world aren't going to do anything but look silly.

Take Karlsson out of that group. He’s going out like he played his entire career, a loser.
