Looking forward to yet another comment section being about Mike Matheson when really we should all be coming together about how poopty Jaroslav Halak is.

Him and Ceci have been fine in their current deployment. The issue is that he’s playing fine as a bottom pairing guy with a second pairing contract, but that’s not relevant to the actual on ice results right now given that Rutherford isn’t in charge anymore. The best thing that can happen is that Matheson and Ceci continue their current trajectory in this deployment since it’s an overall positive and hopefully recoups enough of Matheson’s value to move him in the offseason.

Oh I agree. Him on the third pair is whatever. I’m not mad at that. Still sucks though but yea hopefully they move him somehow this off-season. Maybe they can feed Seattle a pick to take him like they did Fleury.

I’m legit shocked that pair is controlling 60% of HDCF while being under in possession. I don’t get how that works. Obviously it’s possible but seems so unlikely.

I wonder about the so called fans on this site. Hockey is a game of mistakes and it seems that all the keyboard experts on here want perfection. I have some bad news for you IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN. People criticize every time there is a turnover by a Pens D. It happens Get over it.
They are playing well as a team and sometimes a bad game occurs. Caps gave up 8 the other night and bounced back nicely. They sky is not falling. WOW.
Here is a thought Is now the time to see what they can steal from some stupid GM for Evgeni Malkin? They certainly do not seem to miss him. I just wonder what could be had that will help now and in the near future. Things that make you go Hmmmm

This one time the guy who played Mr. Belvedere sat on his ball on set and they had to stop filming for a week.

MM was a +1 for today. Plenty of others with worse games. McCann with a -3 for instance. Just a bad day. Forget about it and start a new win streak against the NYR.

Matheson had a bad turnover but was far from the worst d-man on the day. Marino and Pettersson sucked. Letang gave away the 7th goal.
I’m pretty happy with our D-core overall. The sky is not falling lol

PS. Matheson with his 100th NHL point (and probably his 100th give away lol)

Getting the 2016 vibe from this team... although they lost today... they easily could’ve won... they may go on a deep playoff run

Uhh.. wut? If there’s a vibe this team puts off it’s the one that PDO’d their way to the cup. Definitely ain’t the steam rolling Pens of the first Sully cup.

Yeah and that’s what I’m saying. Any cup for this years team is pure PDO luck.

Works for me. May take extra years off life to watch the run but works for me none the less.

Having said that this team is playing better than then 2017 one, the past month or so anyway.

They have a PDO of like 104 over the last month or so; that’s exactly how they won the cup in 2017 lol

It’s just incomparable. We had way more and younger talent in 2017 but we lost Letang which killed our play driving. This team is less talented and older but theoretically we could bring in a higher end forward and get healthy and our play driving could improve. The talent of the team in 2017 just would not be denied. This team is more of a pure under dog punching above its weight class.
