Errey put it best for a change. He said the 2nd period was the worst period by the Pens this season. I'm not sure if that's true, but it's definitely up there.

Honestly it's sad. JJ doesnt even help us offensively or defensively. I would be ok with some of his defensive lapses if he was good offensively, but he isnt. Idk why they are pulling the goalie with 24 seconds left...just call it a game. I feel we are still a piece or 2 away from being good. I think benching or wavering JJ would be one move they should do, but JR doesnt have the Brass to do it

He had a play on the wall with Malkin and Kessel flying the zone, both open through the neutral zone and he just flipped it out to the ducks dman and it looked like Kessel threw up his hands like wtf r u doing

More of a reason to be pissed about this loss. They got two by him early and started coasting.

They have had full games like that second period...I'm sure we just tried to erase the bad games from memory.

I would be ecstatic if he was just average.

Daniel Sprong had more shots on that power play than he did in like his final 12 games in Pittsburgh. #Penguins get the kill to keep a 2-1 lead.

It's hard for a team to have a sense of urgency when this is the message from the coach:

#Pens coach Sullivan: "We've got to sustain momentum when we get it. I thought we played 40 minutes tonight. We didn't play 60. In the 2nd period we didn't play as well as we're capable." -MC


We didn't play as well as we're capable? No poop, sherlock.

It's clear to see this roster doesn't have "It"

I'm not interested in scraping into the playoffs and having a 1st or 2nd round loss

Scrap this season, trade away what you can, draft in the top 10, take the cap increase and cap space you'll have by moving pieces now and revisit this roster in the offseason

Of course the day the Pens lose a game they should have held on to the Isles are beating the Avs.

Do you trust Rutherford to rebuild this team on the fly based on his previous off season roster management?

Nope. Not anymore. Team lost its identity after 15-16.

Gibson has stoned Guentzel all night.

I guess Guentzel only has two shots on goal the whole night. I swear he has more. Hahaha
