GDT #78: Pens @ Leafs

[Rx6687]

I didn't see Carter out there in OT

I didn't see 87 out there either....

[crusherstasiak]

and what the actual **** was that invitation to walk right to the net while eller ek and doc looked like they were watching a dog do pushups

[Trip McNeely]

He’s done that two OTs in a row and it’s failed miserably

[MalkinIsMyHomeboy]

Wings on Thursday. That’s gonna be stressful

[Trip McNeely]

They were dead tired

[crusherstasiak]

where the **** was sid and rust
what the **** sully

[JC2]

Pens had possession... then tried to force a play instead of just keeping it and getting the better players out there

[Morkle]

Feel like the Penguins have let so many chances slip by being bad on the PP and OT.

They kinda suck at OT hockey.

They kinda suck? They are awful at it

Yeah. If they want to start with Eller and DOC then this has to be the strategy. You can't have both.

it’s weird because those felt like gimmies throughout the Sid era

[willeyeam]

I'll take the point

[King Colby]

Again, ok to be satisfied with 1 point. They weren't gonna win out their last 9.

[Rx6687]

If I'm coaching hockey at any level, I am not losing in sudden death with Sidney F'n Crosby sitting on the bench.

[Rx6687]

Again, ok to be satisfied with 1 point. They weren't gonna win out their last 9.

Absolutely. Detroit was always the game they were going to need to win.

[Trip McNeely]

I’m satisfied with the point. It doesn’t take away that the OT strategy is infuriating.

[nocera]

That’s a big point against a good team.

[The U]

Happy to get a point tonight. Leafs dominated for stretches of that game and could have pulled away.

Pens lost because of their Powerplay and 3-on-3. Again.

Maybe they’ll get around to revisiting their OT strategy in the offseason. Doesn’t seem to be much of a focal point during the season even though it has cost them a playoff spot.

[meecrofilm]

[The U]

I’m satisfied with the point. It doesn’t take away that the OT strategy is infuriating.

It doesn’t matter who the opponent is either. We look completely lost with no plan every. single. time.

No clue what to do with dzone coverage. Careless passes as if keeping possession isn’t a huge deal. Way too many risky hope plays in OT. Just do what everyone else does and skate around until the other team is tired.

[Morkle]

Oh I’m fine with the point, this has just been another one of those repeated issues that could be better had they played better earlier in the year.

[crusherstasiak]

the 'well sid is 0-5 in 3 0n 3 let's go with eller' is stupid as hell
it's sidney frkn crosby...one easily takes the bet that sid is NOT going 0 for 6

[skullman80]

Good thing there is no 3 on 3 in the playoffs.

[Morkle]

[mikey]

Nylander didn't get a shot when he came in alone?
