Sixburgh. If we can't score six, they will.

Coach Sullivan: "We can't get overwhelmed by the circumstance here because we haven't won a handful of games. We just got to make sure that we stay in the moment, we focus on the process because that's what's going to give us the best opportunity to dig our way out of it."



What do "stay in the moment" and "focus on the process" mean here? The "moment" and the "process" right now are made up of a whole lotta losing.

I was wrong. It could be worse than Detroit. At least they didn’t blow a lead to Buffalo.

meh...this is all character building....sleeping bear, those Penguins....

Buffalo 7-3-0 now...they're turning corners by looks of it....though I'm going to wait another 10 games to say that for sure...they seem to start strong a lot of years...

Those first round exits didn’t build enough character?

Edited my response haha

Of course they (first round exits) did but they didnt really lose last playoffs because they played bad. poop health luck at poop luck times.

They did blow a nice lead which is consistent with their play this year.

It is indeed hahaha...wild times. I think they're all up in their own heads regarding 3rd periods/closing out games/keeping leads...only a matter of time before they snap out of that....


...we hope.....and if not....Bedard will look nice in a Pens uni

I missed most of the game last night. Watching the lowlights, WTF was DeSmith doing on goals 2 and 3? He was on the wrong side of the net entirely.

Hard to blame the tenders as they were the reason for some early wins but the last 2 games they've been pretty bad.

Sid looks like he mixed up water bottles with Carter and caught the decline

He was out of position and too far out in crease on both, wide open yawning cages as a result. The goaltending has not been good for almost 2 weeks now. Its an issue for sure, just not the only one.

Yup, Just brutal, That 3rd goal was an empty netter lol.

I poop on Letang a lot but that pass to Jake was a beauty.

Dumo keeps going down to block shots and then can't get back up.

I think the pens need to simplify their PK. This chase everyone everywhere and constantly switching sides just opens up shooting lanes. Stay in the shooting lanes and make them pass it around the perimeter and wait for a mistake. The forwards are constantly below the hash marks.
