Here's a question for the low hockey IQ guys & gals.

Who has the best PK in the league at the moment?

Cmon Rino, I know you know, let it out.

Your question is 100% irrelevant. The Pens have the best PP%, yet some night they're downright terrible.

Care to try again?

I'm not sure what's so hard to grasp. The Caps' PK was bad last night and Grubauer bailed them out. The Pens registered 15 shots on the PP. Some teams barely crack 20 shots in a game. The Caps' PK performed poorly.

fwiw, I think you and Aussie are both handsome. You don't need to fight for my affection, there's enough of me to go around.

Who has the best PK in the NHL at the moment?

Who do commentators all say team 'x' is the best PK at the moment?

Simple question.

How's the Caps PK going against the Blues?

seriously. i have zero issue being critical of the pens powerplay when they deserve it. they had one last night where they were lazy and out of sorts. other than that, i was very pleased with the process. just didnt push one through. it happens.

i wont say the pens deserved to win or that washington deserved to lose. at even strength, the pens were very choppy, and the bottom line is that the caps converted more. but the pens werent terrible. if you tell me that the pens will get 15 shots a game on the powerplay each night over the course of a series, im going to take my chances every time.

I'm not critical of the Pens PP, this is just Rinosaur trying to prove me wrong in saying that the Caps Pk was poor after I said it was good.

15 shots through 5 PP's is 3 per. Great if you can score. I'd rather have half the shots but score a couple of goals. Genos post is a perfect example, whether he felt pressured or just fatigued, but if you gave him that same shot 10 times I think he scores at least 7, he missed last night. That wasn't bad luck, that was just a bad shot. Now why was it bad, who knows (but it may have had something to do with the Caps play ).

i realize this is semantics, but its hard for me to view a shot that clangs off the inside of the post as a bad shot per se. for a powerplay that is prone to passing as much as the pens does, i will take three shots each time, especially coming from point blank in the slot like they were.

im not gonna enter the pissing match you have about the caps PK overall and where it may rank or whatever. but last night, it wasnt a matter of the pens being unable to generate anything against a suffocating PK. they more than had their looks and quality chances. ran into a hot goalie and some iron.

Geno's shot wasn't good. As I said, if you gave him the same shot 10 times, I think he scores at least 7. He had pretty close to a third of the net or at least 25% of to shoot at & he hit iron - for his caliber, that is not good. The rest of the shots that weren't goals can be dissected by other people.

It's only a pissing context because the guy with the alleged low hockey iq wants to prove me wrong. I still say at the end of the day a 100% PK through 5 penalties against the top PP is a bloody good result for the PKers.

You really can't grasp the idea of a goalie bailing a team out. This conversation is over.

So insult someone instead of discussing your point of view?

It is apparent you cannot substantiate your opinion when it is questioned with logic & fact.

You can stoop down to Boydy level ignorance & stay there. Feel free to ignore anything I say from here on - something Josh can't get his head arou unfortunately.

Just 1 more thing. The other day you were saying how useless (my word/interpretation not yours), the Pens shots on goal were as they're were from a location you considered ineffective. But now you are saying 15 shots on goal from no matter where (or haven't elaborated), is an important piece of your arguement? So 1 day shot quantity isn't so important, on another day it's important? (frank) me? You are nearly as bad as Boyd contradicting yourself!

Another 100% PK today. Was it the goalie again?

Can't believe the arguments are still going. The pens pp was very good last night. They have had many games this year where the pp was quite the wreck and still managed a goal or two. I liked what I saw last night. They did all they could to score and it didn't happen. And nothing about the 4 men on the pk had ANYTHING to do with it. The man between the pipes was just amazing. Alternatively, Matt Murray was not the sole reason the pens killed 5 off themselves. The pens pk actually had a decent game. Again, in a series against Washington(which is likely if the pens expect playoff success) I would be thrilled if the pens pp and pk look like that.

I didn't watch the game, so I wouldn't know. Believe it or not, watching the game helps. Not in your case though; you'd need to understand hockey.

Stop with that logic. The Caps have the best PK in the league. Nuff said.

It does help to see the game. I am aware that it was mentioned that he was listening to the Washington radio broadcast of the game. I would imagine that a slight lean towards Washington would still be in the broadcast. I've heard the Washington guys on xm many times and they r prone to bias like they all are. So if u are basing your argument on 0/5 and a Washington feed....sure prob would embolden you to believe that the caps pk was incredible last night.

If that were the case, a reasonable person may take into consideration what people who SAW the game are actually saying.

I Simply said the PK was good.

Low iq boy wants to turn this into a he is right I'm wrong thing to feel good!

At the end of the day, playing the top PP in the league & getting a 100% PK is great work. Numb nuts doesn't understand that but that may be his low iq kicking in.

The Caps broadcast wasn't biased, & put some credit on the Pens play where it was good. They didn't say how good the PK was just that it was a good team effort & Grub was very good.

They have now gone 9/9 on the PK over 2 games with 2 different goalies which is worth taking note of.

I Simply said the PK was good.

No, that's not what you said.

Pens PP got shut down - Caps PK too good.
- Aussiepenguin

This implies the Caps PK was the reason the Pens didn't score on the PP; it wasn't the reason. Grubauer was the reason.

No, that's not what you said.

Ah, no it wasn't. Geno had a pretty good look & didn't score & it wasn't due to Grub.

Yes I did say the Caps PK was too good because it was. It's a fact.
