GDT #74: Pens @ Wings

[mikey]

All right, let's not lose our heads...

[skullman80]

Not making the playoffs is a very real possibility. That's not being crazy. it's 50/50 at best IMO at this point.

[Morkle]

It's hyper annoying have a team full of old veterans, that simply can't start a game ready to play solid. Why they have to way 5-10 minutes to even think about playing hockey when already down a goal is beyond me.

[Trip McNeely]

We still will make the playoffs. But there’s no reason that you should be remotely close. We should be 5 up on Florida with 8 games to go. It’s just **** stupid we have this loser goalie sabotaging our season and Hextall was fine with it at the deadline

[The U]

I think this game has helped me to accept that we’re just not going to make the playoffs. It’s going to come down to that last game of the year against *checks schedule* COLUMBUS and they’re going to blow it.

This team is more frustrating than entertaining so I’m ok either way. This is the first time in the Crosby era that I won’t be craving more Pens hockey at seasons end. Watching them feels like a chore right now. It’s like watching a show you like that has gone down some dumb storyline and you don’t look forward to it anymore but you have to watch the rest of the season to see how it ends.

You've just gotta get a point out of that game, at least. This one really hurts.

[mikey]

It's literally like 63% or something...Florida has lost four straight, giving up 500 goals in those four games...the Isles were shutout by Buffalo the other night...it's three buttholes trying to find the lube...someone is getting sandpapered...

Crazy we came into the season with the same duo.

Personal experience prior to the engagement?

[mac5155]

Granlund looks worse than Kapanen at this point. So we have that going for us... not

[skullman80]

Granlund has been dog poop.

[Trip McNeely]

It was expected. Our GM went out and traded for a 5 million dollar player, who is not worth that amount, instead of targeted the most obvious weak spot of the team

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

Granlund has been dog poop.

He’s a black hole. The draft pick we traded, an inanimate idea, would’ve been better to throw in the lineup than Granlund

[MR25]

I know some here hate fancy stats, but they were pretty clear on the type of player Granlund is, and lo and behold, he's exactly what the stats say he is.

The move made no sense then, and still doesn't.

[nocera]

At least the Panthers are also shitting the bed.

[King Colby]

It's a battle for 9th.

[King Colby]

Desmith should have had ALL THREE of those perron goals

[Gaucho]

**** you, Ron

[Gaucho]

and **** slow starts, most of all

[meow]

Woof

[shafnutz05]

My daughter and I will be at the Boston game on Saturday. I'm kind of dreading it.

[Gaucho]

I admire HCMS for his steadfastness in protecting his players, but maybe it wouldn't hurt to be more like Rick Bowness once in a while.

[Gaucho]

That said, I'm sure CDS, for example, is giving it his best. It just isn't good enough.

[Gaucho]

My daughter and I will be at the Boston game on Saturday. I'm kind of dreading it.

They'll probably win this one and then lose to the Flyers the next day.

I'm OK with that
