Pens hockey 21-22

[JMM]

5-3 now. I think ERod has them all

Crap...EN goal for the Sens...Too little too late but the Pens made it interesting there.

It was a fun ending. Just too deep of a whole. Jake was a no show tonight. Carter and Letang were snake bit.

Worried about tomorrow. I hope Sid shows up and actually shoots the puck

 

[MTC]

Promising comeback. Hopefully these guys are full health tomorrow

 

[MTC]

The Pens move the puck well, they just suck at shooting lol

This is a real issue. Also, we don't protect the crease well. I know the rules have changed about hitting the offense out of your crease this year, but just standing there further blocks the goalie vision. They need to make something happen.

Has Jake done anything so far this year?

We do need to be aggressive in boxing out of the crease. I do think Jarry plays with D a lot better. DeSmith, granted he’s coming off oblique surgery. He just seems to struggle

Nothing like past Jake

Well,hopefully Sid gives them a spark. What's the status of Geno?

Still rehabbing I believe

Geno is not cleared to play yet, but skating with the team

Sid had better shoot tomorrow, and not just pass. We need his A game. Hate the caps.

Pre shoulder damage Jake?

 

[MTC]

Pre shoulder damage Jake?

Yes

 

[MTC]

These guys just need to find that scoring touch. I’ll see you boys tomorrow

That and consistent in front of the net presence.

Hadn't watched the Pens in a while, and now I wish I hadn't turned that game on. This team might be in trouble. Never a good sign getting housed by a bottom feeder that had to raid their AHL team just to play.

Maybe they can turn it around. Sid and Dumo will be back vs the Caps. Hopefully that helps some.

I think they're a pretty average team even with with all barrels loaded but last night was flat out awful until they showed a spark at the end. Thinking it was a combination of a rusty below average backup goalie and maybe looking ahead to tonight's game.

It’s too early to gauge them right now. I think overall they move around just ok. They just cannot seem to score or pick bad spots to shoot.


If these habits persist come January and February then yes, hit the panic button and write them off as mediocre

I'll write them off now and there ain't a damn thing you can do to stop me.

Hate it when that happens.

I sleep fine. I have come to the conclusion that we're all doomed so that leaves for a lot of upside.

MTC, you do know that I'm 🦆 ing with you, right? I hope you know me by now. 🤣

Yeah, no hurt feelings JMM.

Joke around as much as needed. We need it more so than ever these days.

Me, I’ve turned into a more casual observer of late. Two kids, longer work hours for the better, and the back to back cup wins. Besides the outcome of the game is out of my control. I don’t get to worked up like years past
