Ridiculous situations call for ridiculous questions: In lieu of firing Sully, which none of us can imagine happening, can Dubas fire an assistant coach out from under him?
Preferably the dude that 'runs' the PP.

Hi, BC!
Hi, OP!

Now, however did you guess that’s where I was going with the inquiry? :fist:

I think it would be the coolest thing to see a Pens shorty. It’s been awhile, and no time like the present.

Cuz when your PP of all-world players consists of nothing but zigzag passes to the tune of Sweet Georgia Brown, something needs to change.

Pens will win this game.

My brain now automatically slows down all those zigzag passes and I hear Chopin’s Funeral March.

But, really, something’s got to give on this.

We give up a lot of goals right there because taking the body is never an option. Why try to knock the guy down or push him off balance when you can simply waggle your stick in his direction….

Losing is never pretty, but lately these scores, man. It’s like Buccos vs. Brewers.

I can't see a move to be made other than to fire Sullivan at this point.

I’m a fan of sully but if this continues through the first quarter or so of the season, a change needs to be made. His coaching of the PP alone is fireable

Back to my previous question. In lieu of firing Sully, can Dubas fire an assistant out from under him? Can Dubas order Sully to do so?

@mikey, what’s typical form? I’m sure my corporate experience doesn’t translate here.

Half the roster is new yet their losses all look the same as the last few years.

Over-passing. Terrible PP. “Dominate play” but can’t actually score. Retaliatory penalties because our players don’t like being hit. Losing net front battles at both ends because we don’t put any value/emphasis on physicality anywhere on the ice. Carter still dresses every night. 4th line silent. No plan B after the Harlem globetrotters act fails to score.

Exactly. So, I hate to resort to “[insert coach, GM, ownership, et al] owe it to Sid/Geno/Letang,” but isn’t that actually the right answer to just about everything that needs to be done right now?
