Penguins/NHL
Fallout from the Penguins 4-3 win over the Winnipeg Jets
Riley Sheahan Scored a Goal!!!!
The Penguins didn’t just have one shocking moment in Tuesday’s 4-3 come from behind win over the Winnipeg Jets.
Down 3-2 in the third period Derek Grant scored a 1 out of a 100 type shot down the right side for his first of the season to tie the game at 3-3 as Zach Aston-Reese would score a tiebreaking goal with 5:12 remaining.
Two Goals from the 4th line and some actual production outside of the top-2 lines or the power play.
3-0-1 in their last four games, the Penguins have gone from playing at a 78 point pace just seven days ago to now an 89 point pace entering tonight’s game vs Colorado.
They’re not out of the woods yet.
A 4th line of Garrett Wilson – Riley Sheahan – Derek Grant is going to drag you down most nights than come up with a miracle 2 goal performance like they had vs Winnipeg….. the lack of secondary scoring figures to remain a problem as this group badly needs another scoring top-9 winger…… the blueline is hot and cold on a nightly basis and while it’s holding up now, who knows what the Penguins will get from the goaltending position the rest of the way.
But, regardless of where the Penguins are in the standings right now, Washington is the only team in the Metropolitan Division that is a better hockey club than them.
It’s a division filled with mediocrity, teams like the Islanders that won’t sustain their early success.
Then there’s Columbus. A team you have to take serious as potentially passing the Penguins up when April comes around but for now no one in the Penguins organization fears CBJ because of the mental edge To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!
— Phil Kessel and Evgeni Malkin had a poor game together that saw Mike Sullivan split the pair up in the third period vs the Jets.
A bad game has started the ‘time for Malkin and Kessel to be split up full-time narrative’.
The way the Penguins are built right now, keep loading up the top-2 lines and just let it play out.
Maximizing Phil Kessel’s offensive production is what the priority should be not trying to get Derick Brassard going.
Kessel after a 92 point season, is quietly producing at a 99 point To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!
Nylander to canes yet ?
Canes place zykov to waivers.
So whether MM stays on IR or not, any opinions on the Pens maybe making a pitch for Howard to get a Vet goalie in there to maybe stabilize the goalie mess for the rest of the season. Depending on what they ask for of course….
And que Sam’s stupid comment and thumbs down here.
If they are asking for a 1st round pick forget it.
Yeah genius let’s get an old goalie makes 5m a year and is another version of Murray often injured. Pens got rid of fleury to get Howard. Good one buddy good one
And no Sam wont thumbs you down people know how stupid you are and will thumbs you down
It was just until the end of the year then let him walk. You would not be paying him $5 genious. It is called a temporary fix and veteran leadership on the back end. They will not get far with what they have now. You of all people bring it up every 30 seconds. And get over it, MAF is not coming back so just move to Vegas and suck him off before, during and after each game like you do on here now. #MAFluffer Also this was a hypothetical question. Please look the word up in the dictionary since… Read more »
Why make a trade for an old goalie when pens can pickup younger goalie on waivers. Darling
And let the blues get howard
Any news how long fraud Murray will be out on vacation?
Ever thing will be ok now that we have JSD back in fold lol
GMJR must be very sentimental. He loves bringing old players back into the fold. Hags will probably be back next year. Lol.
Clinton’s call on Canada to be a roll model on US during Bell centre event
They haven’t poisoned enough US. Now they are doing in Canada. No wonder not wants to come to montreal. Probably paid by Clinton’s to stir things
No one wants to come to Montreal bc they can’t understand what you are saying.
Darling on waivers
Nylander to canes ?
He will probably sign a bridge deal and get delt at the trade deadline. I don’t see teams making a blockbuster trade for him unless it is a sign and trade.
6.5m. Max 7m and that’s overpaying. But the 8m he wants it’s crazy he hasn’t prove anything. Kids these days want everything handed to them. Jack eichel another one hasn’t prove anything and he got 10m and had more power than sid. For firing DB that fast
Malkin back in bag of shitt mode.
His probably eyeing on his annual vacation
As soon as malkin gets the 3rd liners full time, he quits and won’t go within 20 ft of the net. Same goes for kessel. The pens load up the first and 2nd line and they win 3 in a row. They split them up last night and lose. It isn’t rocket science. Sullivan thinks he is a rocket scientist.
Only thing his consistent about is taking dumb penalties. His been very good at it for the past 4 years leading the team in that department
Was wondering what motivated switching up 14-71-81……Is Brassard back yet?
You would know.
You’re thinking bag of diicks
Pens goalies are Fing terrible. All three of them.
Should’ve traded Jarry instead of Gus.
That 4th goal was not on him. He was in the right postion, the puck took a weird bounce. The last goal didn’t even matter.
Dude what games do you watch. All 3 are garbage. Worst goalie squat belongs Pittsburgh
Yeah but at least they don’t make $10.5 a year to be average.
He was too deep in his net on the fourth. He was only like 6 inches off the goal line. The second goal waa bad as well. The last didn’t matter, but it doesn’t instill much confidence in him.
Trade all 3 goalies they are all garbage. They’ play 1 good game then they are ahl type goalie all 3 of them
Colorado has a terrible fan base.
Montreal’s is worse, if for no other reason than Sam the bandwagon boy.
At least they are loud. Unlike the ppg museum
3 unblocks!
Once again Crosby carrying the team while the other one is on vacation mode
Just last week you said Malkin was better. Typical virginal bandwagon.
I know most of you closed their TV once penguins were down 2-0. But so did score 2 quick goals 42seconds apart
Who is SO and what number does he wear?
*sid
Is this game in Pittsburgh, they are cheering for the Penguins!
Crosby Unblocks!
Only Sam would give thumbs down to a Penguins goal. Bandwagon Boy stricks again.
I heard pens willing to trade desmith , Murray and jarry for fleury
Your mom is not a reliable source.
she does make a great pie though
Happy birthday MAF. 34 years old and 417 wins
Roy at 34 had 413
And brodeur at 34 had 446 win
https://media.giphy.com/media/Jj8vFfZNBcCsg/giphy.gif
Fleury, Orpik and DB. -5am the virginal bandwagon loves it.
Sam has no idea why girls do that.
By the time Patrick Roy was 34, he had: 2 Conn Smyths (won another in 2001), 3 Vezinas, 4 Jennings and 8 all star appearences. Brodeur had 3 Vezinas, 4 Jennings and was an 8 time all star. Fleury was a 3x all-star. See any differences there chubby?
Yeah how many good goalies where there. Now there is too many good goalies. But obviously u can’t see that
Where is there?
As much as I appreciate what MAF has done for the Pens, his win total was definatly inflated by the offensive power house that played in front of him. Roy and Brodeur carried their teams and have the hardware to prove it. I do not believe MAF was ever even discused as a Vezina candiate, ever.
Brodeur had good defence in front of him. Roy had good team like avs.
Roy carried Montreal to their last cup in 93’. Remove him from the equation and no cup for Montreal in 93.’
You might as well remove him 1986 to make u happy
He removed himself shortly after, just to get away from the clowns in Montreal.
Im going to fart in Montreal
You should Sam on sidewalk.
You will be deported at the gate because of your weight.
Bring your own cups. Theirs are 25 years old.
