GDT #5: Pens @ Blues

[nocera]

So many odd man rushes.

[crusherstasiak]

whats kyle gonna do about that liability?

[nocera]

This team is not good defensively.

[King Colby]

Defense is optional. Lucky jarry is standing on his head or this would be 6-1

[Gaucho]

Good period so far.

[nocera]

I guess they didn’t talk about not giving up odd mans during the TO…

[willeyeam]

We seem to be bad at second periods this season

[crusherstasiak]

phil's out there without a contract

[nocera]

Helluva power play

[Gaucho]

Booooo

[Orlando Penguin]

Whoever is in charge of this PP needs to be axed because the philosophy these last couple of years has flat-out sucked. Everyone trying to make a pretty play instead of just pumping it on the net and looking for the dirty stuff.

5 games in and nothing's changed. It's the same team with different names.

[King Colby]

The whole thing looks a lot like last year. 5 games in, all against non-playoff teams mind you. 6 players have scored goals. Come on

[crusherstasiak]

the pp screamed 'we worked diligently on the bumper shot all week so **** everything else, make that happen'

[Blue Canary]

Hi, guys.

Sigh.

[skullman80]

Ugh. Just ugh.

At least we know we now have a GM who won’t wait until game 70-something to “address” issues.

I was so hoping for the Pens to inspire Binnington have a tantrum or something tonight.

[King Colby]

Deserved goal by zohorna who's had a nice game

[King Colby]

Boy was crosby awful tonight

A rational fan would say, hey, it’s only 5-6 games in; give it a minute. But I’m actually starting to feel like, standings-wise, this team is digging itself a an early hole that may be really tough to climb out of later.

[willeyeam]

Rough one for him tonight

[crusherstasiak]

sid looks so slooooooow

[The U]

We work so hard for goals and then give up easy odd man rushes the other way. Demoralizing.

I won't worry until game 10, but knowing this is a team that's going to need every last point to sneak into the playoffs, taking 4 of a possible 10 points against 5 non-playoff teams is not ideal
