Perron suckks
Yep. That would explain why he got a whopping 11 minutes of ice time tonight. Another French pusssy.
Maybe the Savard injury can hold up the Pens way too mobile defensemen
Did I just read that the Pens need a “less mobile” defenseman? Smh
I’ve always wondered why Depaoli hates the word and so much. A comma doesn’t in fact replace the word.
Depaoli, others dislike my comment.
The pens are an 8th/9th place team who are so arrogant they believe they are cup contenders. They will trade Murray and St blurry will let in wristers from the blueline when the games matter most. Same story every effing year. Only garbage organizations keep a 31 year old joke at a 6 million dollar cap hit when a young guy is ready.
Oh do you mean the joke that has this team in a playoff position? You should make some more absurd comments so I know what WON’T happen. Dumbass.
I liked when you got pressed on your last dumbass comment about Kessel, ultimately you just said “I don’t know”. That should be your theme for life. At least now I know the Pens will be in the playoffs and be better than an 8.
I’d like to see this $6 million cap hit. Must be new math. Everyone knows Fleury is better in the two year old new trap NHL. He struggled to defend guys who scored “off the rush.”
You really shouldn’t waste your time on teams that you hate on how they are run. I stopped following the Pirates when I didn’t care for how ownership ran them and I stopped following Pitt football after DW was fired until Steve and Nordy were gone. Find better things to do with your time if you disagree that much with team direction and philosophy.
Close one. Take the W and move on. Hope Geno is back Wednesday for Boston.
I’m really starting to worry about Pouliot’s celling as a player, the kid just has no on ice awareness in the D zone and it’s showing no signs of improving as he plays more, constantly loses his coverage or cover the wrong player.
Another Canadian fraud.
I kind of look for him to get dealt at the deadline this year.
Jay, he was never a great defensive player in juniors and played on very good teams. I never saw the hype in the guy.
I’m fully aware of that Richii, it just seems that so many see him as this future top pairing defenseman that I started to think maybe I was wrong thinking he’ Mike Green 2.0, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing but I really don’t see him being anything more than a bottom pairing pp specialist.
Hope by now you clowns finally realize whatever shero drafted in the first round is a bust
Especially when it was a Canadian. Staal. Pouliot. Morrow. Maatta was a Finn (or as Sam would say, “Russian,”), so he turned out ok.
Maatta is not okay. He hasn’t been good since his surgery. Hope he gets smarter. Lidstrom wasn’t fast but knew how to use his position and not beat up by positioning or speed
I completely agree, I often thought he was a Joe Corvo type player. I would hope they explore trade options in the off-season, unless they can make a hockey trade at the deadline.
Jay, You know I agree with you 100% on this one. For O we have Letang, Maata, and Dailey for another year, and Doumolin has more to give offensively than he has shown or needed to show this year. If Pouliot could be flipped for a less mobile but defensively sound stud who can take the body and clear the crease, I think we’d have a more sound package on the back end.
If I had a nickel for every time I heard someone clammoring for a “less mobile” defenseman in the modern day NHL, I’d now have one nickel.
The problem with this team they have too many American frauds in the roster you are right npl they should get rid of a few of them. Cole, gayjoy, kessel bennett, bonino. Damn somehow a big portion of the roster can be modified if you get rid of this nationality from the current roster. Last time pens won the cup they didn’t have this many Americans there were more French Canadians
When was the last time you had an original thought? And do you know what the word “thought” means?
Please just shut the fuck up.
Funny how all of these guys are generally out of the lineup yet they’re the “problem”
You are right and team is playing better without them that’s why trade them and get better than even current roster.
Better without them after replacing them with Americans Cole and Rust?
If you look at the 08 roster- i believe there are more americans than french fries sir
09 u had more French than today’s roster.
Letang sucks.
American scores and a French Canadian gives it right back up…
Twice American Cole was on the ice when sabres score.
Pens are really missing gayjoy and malkin
They always miss Malkin. He’s their best player.
if they cant look good against one of the worst teams in conference, then they have problems. How did they look against the ranger, lightning, and the Panthers? Pay attention dude
Penguins are what.. 0 for their last 14 on the power play? Ya they miss Malkin you stupidcunt. If this wasn’t a young bottom feeder they probably lose because of he lack of PP offence. Your ability to remind us how dumb you are is actually kind of impressive
PHIL!?! PHIL KESSEL!?! I thought that was you!
Funny watching fatasssam talk all that shit about Kessel only to watch him score
Zero tool Kessel was just about to miss that hot pass again thank God for sabres goalie being beat by letang play.
Quit being a retard, grow up and give credit where credit is due.
The net was wide open I hope chubby scored with the salary he is getting
chubby was wide open, I sure hope Letang can make the pass to him. See how this game of stupidity goes?
The thing I find offensive is Sam calling someone else “chubby”
Offensive you should be taking that comment as a compliment by now since being fat is is cultural thing by now
Is that how you justify being as big as you are? Cultural? Whatever helps you sleep at night, porkchop.
Being an idiot is is a French Canadian thing. They learn it at the Bell Centre Museum.
It was wide open when he showed patience to pull it back and let the goalie get out of position- that is a goal scorers goal Sam Jackoff
“Just about” but he didn’t, and he scored, that’s what actually matter asshole
They better be, he is utter garbage
Preferably for “Nathan”
Trade letang
Trade chubby.
What a nice pass by letang. Thank God for the nice pass that made sabres goalie come back late or else chubby was going to miss again
Great play by phil getting to an open space and creating a passing lane for letang
PHAT PHIL!!!!
I’m liking the game of Wilson and Kunhackl. Rust has flashes. Portet and Sheary don’t belong. Sundqvist has good speed, not ready yet.
I am sure DB Is liking his team’s shot on goal this period
I am sure you’re liking DBs shots on your face later tonight
Looks like Scott Wilson’s time as a US collegiate really helped him.
As soon as chubby not around and gayjoy not in lineup pens playing better
Kessel not around this period I think he is taking a shitt in the back
Probably on your chest.
Nice goal Wilson I bet chubby would’ve missed that chance
NPL do you see any way we can use Rust and a third to get Nathan from the Avs and Mcdavid from Vancouver?
Unfortunately no, Pens traded Rust and a 3rd last year. Maybe Jeb Bush can veto that trade when he is next US president
Letang is a powerplay killer
Sad pens have 1 power play goal this season when they are 5v3. With all the talent you would think they would have at least 5. 5v3. But when u have chubby always missing those golden chances then what more can u expect
Chubby sucks how many goals he will miss more this season
DB likes his goals ha!
And whoever in the organization that actually has concern that Lovejoy is going to be out a while should have their head checked.
I hope he is out for the while and next time he steps back on the ice its with another team Jersey on
“Jeb Bush is the next US president for the while” -sam
Trump next president for a while remeber same is hoping Trump to win to deport all the fat people to Africa so you fat people starve and lose weight and then come back to the country as more productive and not extra expense on the government.
Man, you really know your politics.
DB likes their shot total ha!
I like his glasses. He looks cool.
He looks like a dork
Trade Crosby
I hear he wants to play with McDavid in Vancouver
I’m really impressed with the development of Pouliot.
Is Maatta injured or really this slow?
He is usually slow but not the same kind of slow as npl
Look at that bone head DB
Jesus are you under the bench already?
Canadian anthem pens vs sabres it shows sabres wants to become a Canadian Team
Hmm. With their long history of losing, you might be on to something here.
They need a better backup for the playoffs. Zatkoff is ok for the regular season, but need a vet for the playoffs.
Yes, because backup goalies are incredibly important come playoff time
With the playoff history our goaltender has, yes it is. Why would you now want depth at the most important position on the ice?
His recent playoff history of being the best Pens player on the ice the past 2 years? Maybe we should trade for a new captain with the playoff history our superstar has.
I agree, they should look to add more scoring in case Sid gets hurt or goes back into his playoff hibernation. They should be looking at upgrading depth at every position, especiallly a position like goalie that’s depth is razor thin.
Ill take my chances with Murray if Fleury decides to shlt himself.
Fleury is 31…you have 4 years to find his replacement. Yes trade Murray if you get good return. Don’t trade him for dogshit though. What’s Jarry been doing?
No shlt Franson is out of the Sabres lineup, he went back to Toronto in the offseason, just like Sam guaranteed
Wonder what the offers for Murray were
Zatkoff couldn’t adjust to the rigors of the new two year old trap NHL that ate Kessel. He was better at defending guys “off the rush.”
The Savard injury really held up zatkoff on being a reliable backup
Trade Kessel now.
