Latest Penguins Buzz
The Penguins in their first game without Crosby for the season rallied from a 2-0 first period deficit to get a point in a 3-2 OT loss to the New York Rangers.
That was the good in a game that had some good but also a lot of bad in an unwavering performance from the Penguins.
So where do things stand with Crosby?
The Penguins on Tuesday remained quiet on details surrounding Crosby’s injury because they don’t have a definite answer yet if it’s a going to be around two week absence or 6-8 weeks.
Penguin players left for the road trip on Monday with the belief that Sidney Crosby’s injury from a blocked shot was more week-to-week than day-to-day.
Imaging did not tell a clear story that saw Crosby this week visiting renowned specialist Dr. William Meyers who is regarded as best in the business for identifying and treating core injuries. He is the go-to doctor for professional athletes for getting the quickest recovery when you’re dealing with a sports hernia/abdominal core injuries, something Crosby is believed to be dealing with.
What’s at play here is Crosby weighing to have surgery, per The Athletic’s Rob Rossi To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!
That has the timeline right now anywhere between 2 weeks (rest/rehab) or To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!
The Penguins have succeeded this season with a next man up attitude. No matter who has been in the lineup, the team has been playing with better pace this season and have been a quicker team without the puck that has them being more efficient in putting teams on their heels.
That said, navigating a multiple week absence for Crosby would be a much different ball game than the quantity of injuries they’ve dealt with.
A longer term absence of Crosby will lead to a multitude of matchup problems.
Coaches do not fear Evgeni Malkin at this stage of his career and thinking Malkin is getting to catapult into 2011-2012 Malkin is wishful thinking but the depth down the middle is where problems arise without Crosby. Pittsburgh is getting nothing on a consistent basis from Nick Blugstad at both ends of the rink and Jared McCann is just a different player 5-on-5 when playing center compared to wing.
—- One thing to watch as the season progresses is the Penguins trying to establish a line that can take the tough minutes away from Crosby.
A worry in the organization is that Crosby had to play so many tough minutes last season and as he gets older it’s something they want to try to avoid more in the regular season.
That’s had the experiment of the Teddy Blueger line with Brandon Tanev on the wing getting top line matchups like was the case vs the Blackhawks.
— What’s another Penguins season without Kris Letang being week-to-week. When Letang was initially injured vs the Bruins 9 days ago, coaches were told To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!
—- Bryan Rust has always been an excellent North-South skater. What scouts see in Rust this season is more explosiveness as a puck carrier in turning east-west plays into high danger chances. Whatever training he did in the summer has paid big dividends as Rust looks stronger and more explosive.
— 0 goals in 9 games, pressure starting to mount on Alex Galchenyuk. He was unplayable 5 vs 5 against the Rangers and the lack of impact on the power play has added to the problems.
Galchenyuk was always going to be involved in the Kessel deal because Arizona needed to move a salary but one player Penguin scouts pushed hard to be included was 22 year old To read this insider news, subscribe to get “Inside Access”!

Quid pro quo.
Hey Fat NPL been waiting for Murrays 2nd goal allowed GIF vs Jersey

rumors Schultz for Barrie
SERIOUSLY TRISTAN JARRY LOOKS MORE SURE, CONFIDENT AND POISED THAN MURRAY RIGHT NOW…GIVE THE BULK OF THE STARTS TO JARRY..LET MURRAY BACK -UP FOR A WHILE
You agree he is a Fraud
Coach always hides him vs good teams when they play back to back and when team has days off and plays vs good team he gets exposed with his magic number minimum 3 in order to win for him
Well he certainly didn’t have his A game tonight…Pittsburgh was outshot 38 35 and the goal with a minute plus left to tie was deflected the OT goal he couldn’t control a shot it squeaked through his legs laid in the crease to islanders pushed it in…
hell we scored 4 he couldn’t get it down Tanev looked great Rust Guentzel scored..
DEFENSEMAN JOHNSON UUUGGHH SCHULTZ EEEKKKSS PETTERSSON HO HUM.
NOW WE HAVE TO GO TO THE ISLAND WHERE WE WERE LUCKY A WEEK GO AND HOST NEW JERSEY ON FRIDAY AND WE CANT BEAT THEM OR THE BLACKHAWKS ANYWHERE MARS, OUTDOORS INDOORS,,,GEEZ
WE BETTER NOT GET RID OF JARRY BECAUSE IM STILL NOT SOLD MURRAY IS 100% BACK TO WHERE HE WAS.
ISLANDERS DID GET A LUCKEY DEFLECTION OF ZAR LEGS ON THE SHOT FROM THE POINT THAT SWITCHED DIRECTIONS BUT GEEZE STANDING AROUND…
bad loss at home…a point is a point but what the fuck 4-2 lead with 6 7 minutes to go…. A point is positive but this isn’t good… The penguins have to be the worst team at 3 on 3 OT in the league they don’t cover anybody so many of their OT games the have no clue who is covering who.. they had the puck around the boards leaving to early the lost the puck at the blue line 2 on 1 shot weak rebound Schultz does a fly by goal islanders FUCK. AGAIN WE NEED ANOTHER FUCKINH TOP… Read more »
Where is that fat npl ,stan and zeroTool
Pk subban looked like a ahl player on Bruins 4th goal
Anyday letang. Over subban and karlsson
Agreed Karlsson is awful defensively and Subban is having his troubles and letang can’t stay on the ice…so….
Ill take Shea Weber for $400
Habs really won that Weber – subban trade. But don’t tell that to ZeroTool
not even close Weber a way better player….
subban has been on how many teams now??? he’s good weber is better…
PK has out played Weber in each season since he left Montreal and made the playoffs until the year that he’s moved to a teams that’s been dog shit with a terrible head coach…
But ya this is the year we need to making that judgement call on Hahahahahaha ffs
Are you serious Tool if he was that good preds would’ve kept him. He was 5th D on most nights 4thD at its best they used him first unit on pp thats about it.
Where is everybody?
I guess their TVs went off
It is amazing how your mouth always stays shut when the Penguins are winning or when they win. When they lose you never shut up. Same with Montreal and Vegas… if they win you are jerking offf, if they lose you do not make a sound unless it is an excuse. Flip Flopping troll….
The way your pj buddy npl disappeared tonight ?
Excuses and deflection. The only two things you are good at.
Magic number again.
The minute fraud Murray play vs a decent team this is what happens
Sam as fraud Price!
At least they lost to the second best team in the league and got a point… Price got lit up by an “AHL” team.
How did they do vs last team Jersey? Tell you pj buddy still waiting for that GIF
Still waiting for that Price SC image.
Hey asshole I never said he went to SC. He would’ve thanks to that dirty kreider
Actually, you did. And there people on here who can back that up. Nice try.
Ugh!!
I guess Ladd Waivers is not playing tonight.
Whoever recommended the Pens sign that Tanev dude in the offseason is super smart. Probably the smartest hockey mind on the board.
Tanev was all you dude. I remember Samantha and Simply Dusty crying about it.
Yeah he sees the future he is so good at that next November he predicts he will be crying
Rusty!
When did Letang start playing for the Islanders?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2BO9U40pvUs
Fraud Schneider Clears Waivers, assigned to AHL
Ladd Waivers to LA rumors heating up fockers
what’s for lunch, morons?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B1nkNzrUVeg
This happened before NPL was Born and his mom left his dad
Ladd Waivers spotted in Greensburg
Glad you are able to use your 1992 computer still
Now try to provide us murrays 2nd goal GIF vs the devils
Is he related to Ron Mexico ?
Cory Schneider on waivers.
Remember Yoda and npl wanted him over fleury. Once again Same was right he is a fraud along the few names they mentioned back in days Miller and Bernier being the others.
Meanwhile fleury still has a full time job
https://i.ytimg.com/vi/aFKMZcr7ai4/hqdefault.jpg
NPL working hard to find who is Ladd Waivers
Come on Fatso work hard we need Murrays GIF 2nd goal he let in vs the Devils
After he posts that can you post a gif where Price played in the SC finals like you claimed he did.
What dont you post some of the Donuts you have made today
We are waiting Sam(e). Where is it?
im hoping we see some moves soon…but St.louis seems to be surviving without Tarasenko, Colorado without Rantanen and Landescog…..Penguins without everybody and now Crosby & letang & Hornqvist..
Apparently Leafs might be intrested in Jarry
do you guys think pens vs leafs was showcasing Jarry to them ?
According to you it was done to hide MM. #flipflop
Apparently Friday there was Scouts that ateended Senators-Flyers game included the Blackhawks, Columbus Blue Jackets, Avalanche, , Pittsburgh Penguins, and the Washington Capitals. I wonder which player penguins were there for
Ladd Waivers?
Dude you are so funny that i forgot to laugh
I know everybody wants Pageau from Ottawa don’t think the penguins need him…but who knows
he is a clutch player and often scores at Home games can be intresting in playoffs
he is a Habs killer
i know teams like Buffalo, the Islanders and others will line up for him heard Rutherford liked him too?
NOT SURE WHAT WE WOULD GIVE AND WHAT HIS SALARY IS? YOU KNOW?
Send that fraud galchenyuk since he is young and still fool other teams with that.
NPLs Favorite player Ladd Waivers
Still has 4 years left on his 5.5m per year
Ive never heard of Ladd Waivers
Sam records games on his VCR
NPL only watches Hockey games when his mom is hosting Gangbang events in the other room
Please Penguins stay away from Tyson Barrie…i know Toronto is taking calls on him let them deal with him…he is a defensive pylon much like Letang can be at times,,,,,,we don’t need anymore defenseless defense man…
Is it just me or is Rikola just playing some solid hockey? anywhere they put him he gets to the puck and most of the time make s a solid outlet pass and he can actually shoot and will shoot it from the point.
Keep Tristan Jarry ( you Murray will go down again) trade Casey De Smith
Penguins need Trotman back
so Npl Can start watching back some hockey
Yeah Sam, start watching back some hockey!
Whats the deal with tTottman how bad is he hurt…just curious wondered what happened to him…
NPL is obseesd with Trotman thinks its penguins best D
What do you think of Marco Scandella?
Ask your mom she might know more about him
nice…..
Are the Pens even connected to this? Just because he’s available don’t mean they are asking for what it would take to land him.
That said if it was between Barrie and Scandella, despite concerns I’d opt for Barrie.
I’M not sure there were rumblings nothing substantial…They do need another top 4 defender preferably one that can defend…I know Toronto is desperate for a good quality back up goalie and they liked Jarry the other night…i think things started on hockey night in canada somehow there because Toronto
because Toronto is desperate an jarry was really good and they have been listening on Tyson barrie.. Somehow this caught wings jarry plus for Barrie…
JR won’t move rutherford unless hes real confident in the deal. He still feels Jarry is a potential “cornerstone” player
Wow not only fleury can steal games or series. He made me win my weakly hockey pool was down 7-3 and end up winning 6-5 .
P.S. npl suckss
So does the DemocRATS
7+3=10 categories
6+5=11 categories
Youre caught lying because you cant do basic arithmetic HAHAHA IDIOT
what the fuckk are you talking about fatso.
be useful for once in your live and go get me Murrays GIF the 2nd goal he allowed vs Devils
Sam(e) do you wear flip flops?
no only slippers
Struggling flames who don’t have a single PPG guy and are on the outside looking in you’re raving about but the Pens beating TO is something to talk down too… It’s scary how much you hate this team
I dont hate this team
I hate the Delusional Bandwagon Box Score Fans only
You cheer for players to fail, you seem to enjoy losses. The only players you’ve ever shown any admiration for is Crosby, Letang and MAF… you are a Canadiens fan here because of the Q connection to Pittsburgh period…
How did fleury do tonight
You mean vs one of the lower scoring teams in hockey this year? Teams leading the league in games played… they are a bottom 10 scoring squad hahahahaha.
More proof Sam fucken hates the Penguins
Apparently leafs getting calls for Tyson Barrie. I know he hasn’t been great with leafs. But maybe with the Penguins he might work out. He is UFA end of season and his salary I believe is 2.7m
yeah maybe but defensively he isn’t great and we need defense that wins in the playoffs!!
we have enough letangs that need a GPS to find the front of there own net
Tough, I mean ya the Leafs are clearly fragile and checked out but Shattenkirk was the last guy to come out of that system where he excelled but clearly struggled elsewhere. Seeing him go quiet upon leaving Colorado makes me hesitant
Drooooooooooool
#WalkAway fatso #WalkAway
Is he about to retire? Lol
lots of positives tonight .Tristan jarry steady tonight. hockey night in Canada suggest Toronto interested in Jarry (no way we trade him give them De Smith Dominik Kahun is starting to get comfortable and he can play team defense is now fith best in the league penalty kill second and we scored a power play goal Malkin is getting better ( a dumb penalty and a couple stupid passes but he was really strong great goal that’s why he needs to shoot more. Marino keeps getting better and better tanev looked great penalty kill and flying around galchenyuk chipped in… Read more »
It might help spread out the talent on the blue line, Pettersson with Letang night not be terrible although it would likely be JJ which, despite not being complete dog shit this year, is not ideal I think
I see Montreal lost to that “AHL” team.
Yeah still got extra point and beat caps yesterday. While Penguins lost to ahl team last night in regulation and only beat leafs ahl goalie. Man that goalie was Garbage tonight
A loss is a loss and a win is a win. Plus Montreal pissed away a 3 to 1 lead vs that “AHL”. But you always have an excuse for Montreal and Vegas.
Whatever makes you happy Box score expert
You can’t read a box or a fucken live game sooooo
Leaf goalie put up an 842 tonight… better than MAFs numbers in 2 or three of his last 6 hahahaha
Just got a chance to finish the game. Was a little behind… 1. Some dynk was crying about possession with zero consideration about shooting % because he’s a fucken idiot. Another 6+ but no Sid or Letang in this one. Again they are better than they were last night as long as they keep this pressure up. They had high % tonight which is how this evens out but you have to be a remarkable dumbfuck to cry about control of a game just because they will still lose one or two… this is a recipe for success period. 2.… Read more »
Posted this, scrolled… sure as shitt Sam is already making goalie excuses. What a fucken loser lol
Zero all 12 points spot on especially Kahun this kid is young, can skate and play just needs regular shifts..
Move Bjugstad as soon as he is healthy……he is slower than the statue of liberty…Then Kahun and LAFFERTY CAN PLAY REGULARLY
I said it the minute he was traded here he is Ponikarowsky 2.0
Nailed that one….2.p indeed
he needs to be on team like Anaheim the kings slower paced
look at this tool geno has only 2 pims relax buddy he just came from his 11 game vacation
he still has time to catch up for his most PIM Title that he has been dominating for last 4-5 years in a row
Murray traded yet ?
Has price made it to the SC finals yet?
Kahun has more goals then Toews. Lol
Thank God for our pp specialists
You are not happy unless the Penguins are losing so you can bitchh like a little girl.
As long as Penguins play vs goalies that are playing their 1st NHL game we are good
Go cry about Subban. Flip flopper.
Another game backup goalie will play his first NHL game vs Penguins
You guys think we can win tonight
All these subbans suck.
Vegas needs a decent backup goalie
And no one gives a fuckk!
You do know why they are playing Subban more yeah? He’s had an above 900 Sv% once… ONCE in his last 6 games hahahahahahahaha
ONCE
It is all the defenses fault. Always is.
Hey npl we need Murrays last night GIF .
Thats right disappear like the roach you are.
Everytime we need a Murray GIF
If only you and the democRATS can disappear like that from the world
Hey Tool can you update us how Penguins doing this year without Crosby in lineup and without Malkin in line up
1-2 without Sid and Letang so far… I can’t calculate it the other way as Crosby had Letang and Hornqvist much of the time…
3-2 without Letang… but those two loses came after Sid was hurt… so they don’t count
I am assuming Jarry will b in their tonight……. lets hope he plays better both teams cpming off a loss to a team they cant seem to beat…
6 points every 5 games lol… Babcock is a fucken moron. The Leafs should be way scarier right now than they have been. Not that the Pens shooting is making me comfortable right now but the Leafs are fragile at the moment and the overrated bench boss is a huge reason.
Dude thinks he is smarter than he actually is. That said the 6 every 5 pace he wants to he is 98 points… he’s flirting with missing or a wildcard at best finish. What an assholle
If course he is scum sully played fraud Murray yesterday vs the weakest team in League in order to protect his fake stats to make zeroTool and rest Box score experts happy
I said it before I say it again only time fraud Murray gets W is when the team shows up in front of him he can’t steal games on his own.
So when the D shows up and MAF wins a game he stole the game but when the D does not show up and he gets lit up it is the D’s fault for not showing up. Gotcha Sam(e). MM let in 2 goals last night. Granted the second one was weak but considering the Pens only scored 1 goal against the Devils I say they deserved to lose the game. I would rather all these problems happen now then in Jan / Feb. All they have to do is sneak into the playoffs. The dominate team all year almost… Read more »
Another proof scum sully has an affair with fraud Murray and loves to protect his stats yesterday leafs played far superior team the Bruins and Anderson was in net .today they play a shitt team the Penguins ,leafs will use back up goalie. Meanwhile Penguins played the worst team in NHL scum sully had fraud Murray in net .tonight they play a better team guess what Jarry will be in net . You Box score experts npl, zeroTool,Yoda, Stan and Co.
Drool how ever you want about Murray’s stat numbers. Bottom line he will always be a FRAUD.
And when their careers are over We will see this stand out
MAF is the only goaltender to blow multiple 3-1 series leads
Murray was clutch as a starter in two cups while MAF was only able to hold the fort once lol
With no fleury. Those 2 last cups would’ve have not happened . 2016 it was MAF. letang and Crosby carried the team in playoffs since January those 3 were hot while Malkin and chubby were vacation mode
2017. Penguins had no business even passing that 1st round MAf stole 1st and ,2nd round and was MVP candidate up until sens series
If you say so… I mean MAF did fuckk all in 2016…
If Murray played all of the 2017 playoffs he would have won and not been pulled vs Ottawa. Why? Because he doesn’t collapse the way MAF was on the road to doing.. AGAIN
Are you kidding me Penguins were heavily outplayed first 2 rounds they had no business to be in 3rd round you are telling me Murray would’ve stole those rounds on his own ahahahaa. Let him steal games then will talk about stealing rounds. Typical Tool
Considering he was far better than MAF in every way when they both played together? Yes, no question.
Murray was badly out playing MAF period
murray’s great crime, he out played st.bleury in 2016 and 2017. you bums who blame him for last nights loss are garbage fans. if murray was smart, he’d run out of town first chance and actually go to a team who has a fanbase who appreciates him. the kid wins 2 cups in the net and people hate him. he should be a legend in this town.
He is smart he has scum sully hiding him vs good teams. Yesterday he played vs worst team today he gets the day off vs leafs
lets be honest on the 2nd goal and we are using the excuses that you cultist used when the st. was in there. marino looked like a minor leaguer holding the blue line and he also looked like a minor leaguer after he lost his man going to the net. it wasn’t murray’s fault. the D looked pathetic. (in actuality, they both looked bad, however, you have to have the same standards for murray as you did st.bleury)
pens won the metrics battle last night. that’s what’s important. that is what wins games, not putting pucks in the net. hahahahahaha!
That’s the beauty of the metrics… with the pucks they are putting on goal and the absurdly low shooting percentage it means one of two things. Either the talent pool is complete trash top to bottom or it’s a rough patch with too many squeezing the sticks tight. You have several players shooting way too low percentage-wise the past few… much like how there was a stretch they were all shooting well above when the put us 7 in 4 games over a short stretch in October…. So they are not this bad nor are they 7per good but it… Read more »
Witth crosby out we can’t have goaltending like this we can’t…we will be out of the playoff picture by Christmas..we also need to make a move Rutherford.
Yeah Murray coughed that one up last night. Another shot that he can’t handle with the glove. Pathetic. They played a good game minus that play and it cost them. These points are crucial without Sid.
murray is the least of their worries. i’m going to use the excuse that all of you st.bluery lovers used to use. the pens only scored one goal last night, that means you expected a shutout from the goalie last night for the pens to win. that’s not realistic. hahahaha!
They did they had lots of chances Blackwood (their goalie) actually made the timely saves……
bad loss that’s at lease 1 point we needed to bank if not two…….now Bjugstads hurt he was a major trade piece fuck this team is cursed with the injury bug
Second goal is a bad bounce created in a lapse of concentration by Murray. He watches that all the way into the glove as opposed to thinking he might move it right away and he holds it. First one was a fluke. He still put up .900+ goaltending. It’s the lack of finish that’s killing them right now. Lots of shots, lots of excellent chances but the pucks are not goin the way they did earlier. It’s just a rough patch. Much like the 7goals per was not sustainable this low production won’t last. Credit to Blackwood too, he’s their… Read more »
MURRAY WAS BRUTAL ON THE SECOND GOAL WEAK SOFT SHOT.HE COULDN’T HANDLE..AWFUL COST US A POINT..WE JUST SUCK VS JERSEY ANYWAY..
Hey npl can you provide us Murray’s second goal GIF please
Penguins all star fraud Murray team lost vs a ahl team
While habs ahl team beat all star caps
How is our Russian and the Penguins doing. Apparently the magic number is right at the corner.
The Penguins need to add one more top 4 defenseman to play with Schulz…Buffalo needs a bottom six forward seems like a good match..they have extra defenseman.
TO PITTSBURGH MARCO SCANDELLA 29 $4.0 MILLION SOLUD PLAYER GOOD SHOT SKATER PASSER AND PHYSICAL.
TO BUFFALO CENTER NICK BJUGSTAD 26 $4.1 MILLION SOLID BOTTOM 6 SIX GUY..SALARIES MATCH..
CONGRATULATIONS! YOU’VE SUCCESSFULLY POSTED MORE TIMES ABOUT AN IMAGINARY MARCO SCANDELLA TRADE THAN ANYONE ELSE IN TIOPS HISTORY
On this specific post? Lol
I think he had it on the first one
Wow now jumping in (on tbj lock jaws Scandella criticism )after watching you and sam do all the political crap on here please…..
Didnt realize this was the Washington post on Canadien news central..lol
Awe muffin, it was a joke
Sure it was..honey bear!
OK how bout this, as a passing maybe I can see why some one would mention it once however to continuously mention bringing in a guy to augment the bottom four at 4 million who really doesnt do much to add to the roster beyond what is already here and represents a step in the wrong direction for overall team speed if fucken absurd! That’s no joke
Guy had been dog shitt in Minny for the past few years and most of this time in Buffalo but now that the what 29? 30? year old blueliner has played will early in Buffalo he sees a slight uptick and thats enough to land a potential albatross contract?
Remember when JR moved Hunwick and Sheary and we were all excited about the cap space and then he filled it with JJ. Moving Bjugstad to fill it with a Scandella type has the potential to blow up in the teams face in that manner.
Gee thanks whoecver you are at least we know who Marco Scandella is….
And you are? Thats right we dont know what A tby233 200xr magum super vacumn cleaner is….LOL
Just ignore him. There is a few like him here try to be negative on everything you post quit doing that and all I do is insult them back.
Thanks Sam…you know em….. gotcha
Or initials. One or the other. I just wish i could’ve come up with something as original as Hockey11.
They need to try and improve on Schultz…this ain’t it. Not that Scandella is bad but that mobile puck mover role isn’t what I think of when I see his name, I’d be worried about mobility vs quicker teams. At 4 million? Has to be better options available
Agreed Schultz must improve…..But Scandella can skate well, and is a good first outlet passer, which is what we need, and.he also covers the front of the net! (which most of our defense cant do) and
He has a cannon of a shot..Opening day against us at PPG he blasted one past Murray.!!
He wont jump in the play like Letang, but we don’t need that we need someone who can play defense!,Marco makes a good fist pass, can cover the front of the net, and is physical and he checks those boxes.
Id take him over Johnson but I don’t think he improves a roster with Johnson as much as they need, and at that price tag? Pass
Straight up for bjugstad hell yes salary identical $4.0 scandella $4,1 bjugstad..no price tag.
Gez…. McDavid 6 points in 2 periods.
Tampax vs rags was a crazy match also
McDavid eating McKinnons lunch head to head 🙂

ToMLin iS On BeLiChIck’s level
Holy shit… did any of you see the report on TJ Brodie? Collapsed at practice, started convulsing and had to be carted away in an ambulance. Damn… hope dudes ok. Hes apparently alert in hospital. Scary stuff
Wow is it like Fisher with Detroit ?
Don’t think they’ve given an update yet. He seemed alert as he left the ice for the Ambulance and was already discharged. I think if it was a Fischer type deal they’d have kept him overnight
i’m calling BS on the sports hernia thing. i’m saying broken foot.
Yes, they lied about surgery to hide a broken foot… in fact they have done such a good job of hiding this they even have him walking without a cast..
Sam the virginal bandwagon man
#WalkAway
Blow it up
Hopefully Rutherford can get an Andreas anthansiou or a radek faska dallas
I dunno, unless we are ready to move away from Galchenyk, which could be early at this point, I don’t think beefing up the forward group is really required. I think there is an early panic on Sid being out, traditionally the team has doe well when either him or Malkin have missed time individually. So unless they start to collapse over the next 10 I really dont see the point in adding a forward to a group that has enough NHL forwards playing well enough, albeit struggling to find the score sheet over the past handful of games, that… Read more »
We are moving galchenyuk already ahahaba what is this ps4 since 09 this team had the most in an out players from the club it’s as bad as npls moms gangbanggs
So same was right galchenyuk is a bust and belongs to be with yakupov.
And as for shultz. You droolers want letang gone badly. Im sure you clowns will miss him once he is gone the way soon average fans will miss MAF
Who said they were? I simply noted him because of a slower start and contract status… swing and a miss
Tell you what I dont miss… those complete playoff meltdowns that likely cost the team a 4th cup
Don’t worry 1 new thing you will miss this year is Penguins making the playoffs with fraud Murray and have a new streak started . And you’ll be gone suckingg mcdavidds dick
You’re throwing in the towel but accuse me of jumping ship?
What’s that? I think Byron’s ball sac is dry, you need to get to him right away
now that there is no Hornqvist,Crosby,Letang and in the past Cullen,Guerin
I wonder where our Russian will hide when media goes after him when team gets a loss ?
McCann ?
Flip flop
Here is Malkin’s chance to be dominant again… He has been playing well now he needs to be the man and carry the team and b a monster..Hope he steps up he has in the past…
he has nothing to prove or get a Contract extension so dont have your hopes high
Well for the sake of the team..its now or never for him to b great again. Look for Rutherford to make a move… we will get buried in 6 weeks without a trade and good play
you’ve been beating the drum for a #2 pairing left d for a while now. with this crosby news, if you could only make one deal (cause, you know, assets and all) would you make a move up front or on the back end? assuming the cost is the same and the basic level of talent received is the same
You guys have to stop panicking with Sid injured league has been a more and more a systematic league that means if team plays good as a team they can win a lot of teams dont have crosby or big star players and still pull victories problem is Geno like most russian players is not a systematic player and that might hurt the penguins if geno plays good and team wins next 6 weeks his stock will go up first time since he won the cup and it would be good to trade him then this is a good oppertunity… Read more »
This was almost rational but you couldnt help take that Geno jab…
Traditionally the team has played well with one or the other out. Even on the wrong side of 30. So its way too early to start preparing for Lafrenière
Defence no question, Crosby and Hornqvist will be back… The D is still relatively weaker than the forward group when everyone is healthy. I argue this team can manage with the forward group but will likely fall if the D is not improved.
The New York Islanders have placed Andrew Ladd to the waivers
4 more years at 5.5m
Fat slob npl can start drooling
ZeroTool and Fake Canadians are happy Don Cherry is Fired these are the type of Snowflakes that are ruining the country .
And yet a “canadian” who admited to beheadings while he was with isis is roaming the Toronto gta with zero consequence. But yeah let’s persecute this real Canadian because he said two words.
Don Cherry is the Canadian equivalent to Mike Milbury except Milbury actually played more then 1 NHL game and everyone in America knows Milbury is an idiot.
Well put.
Crosby is out for 6 weeks.
how long will you be out ?
I’m glad he got it done now. There were legions of idiots hoping he’d take the shot and play through it. The guys just need to maintain, no significant drop and at best find ways gain to keep them in a position to make the post season. Getting Crosby back around the new year will be a nice shot in the arm either way.
Lets just hope penguins will still be in the mix of making the playoffs and not competing at the bottom with Subban and the New jersey Devils
Like you really care flip flop troll.
Insane how overrated Babcock has exposed himself as with that team. Best roster he’s had with that franchise no question and they have a losing record… wow
MAF’s magic number tonight… anyone??
Brutal, we got an article yesterday that did show that Vegas, whose struggled so much lately because MAF has been shit for weeks, relies completely on their goalie. Somehow this is a good thing that full reliance on MAF has them currents outside the playoff picture lol
Fleury literally had 0 chance on half of those goals. The Knights D was trash but obviously you dont know that because you watched the Box Score
Always an excuse…
You have been beating the drum for Malkin to fail all day but MAF getting shelled isn’t on him one bit? It’s laughable
They Outshot the Hawks 42 – 26… He was out played just admit it. We wont tell Fleury.
Kings and Kovalchuk attempting to mutually agree to a release… give him 2 million to play here just to watch heads explode with another Russian on the roster 🙂
Drool assholee drool
You’re the one writing off the team, let’s go all out and tank for that reboot pick. I hope Kovalchuk comes to Pittsburgh and takes Letang spot on the top PP even after he returns
Draft dodger CBauer talking about first amendment rights, the rights brave men fought to keep, is amazing.
So has anyone seen Guentzel lately ? Missing from this discussion of politics of a country that has sold its freedom is Guentzel’s lack of scoring..
He has had chances, much like Galchenyk and several others and its just not going. While playing with Sid clearly doesnt hurt I don’t think he is scoring 40 as a product of Crosby alone. Plus he wasnt exactly lighting any lamps when Sid was still in the line up. A lot of guys are shooting and the pucks are not going in. Cant last all year, they will start going in again I am sure
I hope so he just seems lifeless like he has lost interest. I did expect him to tank some without Sid but he just seems to float at times.
I dunno if that is without Sid though. Even with Sid, during the Oilers game I seen it a couple times. He was letting up early. Not sure what thats about, maybe its a small bang up and not a new behaviour
Maybe team is missing sheary and his 3 goals lol which 2 of them came vs Penguins this season
Was just driving home from work and saw a company had a huge syrian flag instead of Canadian flag or Quebec flag. Yup this is the type so called country we live in here thanks to Ron klatt and his hero beta male Trudeau
Maybe it was Don Cherry’s house.
“hearsay evidence can be better than direct evidence” wow these people are complete morons. All because they know they can’t win the 2020 election
What they need to do is stick to the real issues… like Obama who is a private citizen now or Hillary’s emails….
Is what Don Cherry said worse than JT not knowing how many times he’s worn black face?
JT was held accountable, he lost power as the electorate moved to a more progressive option. I did not vote for him and I did not let him off the hook for that level of stupid even back then. Now here comes the part that is going to be a bitch for your little brain to comprehend. Don Cherry’s horrible choice of words impacted him because he made them representing a privately owned firm. This wasnt the first time he crossed this line either, it was the last in decades of really stupid things he has done. Don showed zero… Read more »
Lol you sit here and argue with Sam all day every day. You’re a fuckking tool. So please, continue posting your chapters that nobody takes the time to read. I would bet any money you’re an out of shape loser that doesn’t have any friends and never gets vag. I imagine you being similar to Mark Madden
Idiots asks a question then melts down when answered…
Exactly. You’re a bltch
Beauty reply… the only question mark on the thread is from you lol.
The only person that has to put their 2 cents in on everything posted, is you. lol like you’re the site admin
“I hate it when I post an unsolicited opinions on a public forum, especially one completely unrelated to the reason for boards existence and another member replies” Wahhhhh! I admittedly need to avoid the politics for a couple reasons, it is absolutely pointless as this is a sports board and the only two that seem to invite it are fucken morons. That said… I don’t volunteer the posts, I am not the one that brings them to this board, I respond. The easy way to keep me off that argument… stop bringing it to the board. Until then quit the… Read more »
PS it’s kind of cute you try to imagine me rothey… who else do you think about from the board when your eyes are open?
Both of you incessantly crying about politics on a message board isn’t accomplishing anything in any way.
LOL this is scary two days in a row we agree tbj233
@tbj fair enough. The difference is, I do it because it triggers zero to the point of no return. It’s just too much fun and this board is nonsense to begin with. So what is the difference?
Technically he asked about Don Cherry, that counts as hockey 😉
#FreeDonCherry even better when do you think you will win free speech back in Canada.
So you don’t understand free speech either?
Yeah I do its the difference between the two countries. We still have it in the USA……If your fanny hurts from someone’s comment BFD get over it.
How was Cherrys freedom of speech infringed on?
he lost a source of income because his speech wasn’t politically accepted. Grow a spine up there in the north learn to deal with peoples opinion that offends you.
So if you walked into your place of employment and used racial slurs (lets ignore whether or not Cherry meant it that way for this example) would you expect your boss to not fire you because of “Free Speech”?
The reason you are struggling with an answer is because free speech laws have nothing to do with private organizations and how they manage their employees. The laws protect you from your government stepping on your freedom to express yourself. You can’t just say or do whatever you want under the corporate guidelines a companies policies lay out.
Cherry was fired from his job, not arrested… this is why this has zero to do with free speech.

If crosby does elect surgery 6 to 8 weeks they better go get a center..
Radek Fiaska Dallas 25 $2.2 million 15 goals 15 assists 30 points last year nice 3rd line center
Andres Anthansiou 25, $3.0 million speed, size and talent
Hell I would exchange bad contracts at this point
Victor Rask Minnesota 26 $4.0 million 2017 14 goals 17 helpers 31 points also decent 3rd line center and we give them jack Johnson $3.2 million bad contracts exchanged Rask has talent and was decent in CArolina has sucked in Minnesota..
Malkin Mccann Rask Blueger till Sid comes back
Was it Skip who was always coming up with PS4 trades?

well said by matt larkin
So basically what I said before and you are most likely the one who gave me the thumbs down. Flip flopping Sam(e).
apparently Disneyplus crashed yesterday must be npl and his multiple accounts
Quid pro quo
I would like to say this is going to be damaging but Teflon Don has been immune to a few things so far. I mean his own son admitted to meeting with Russia to gather dirt but somehow there was nothing gained despite the Russians providing dirt lol.

You’d be under-qualified to do his sock laundry you meatstick lol
It’s time to move Bjugstad, Casey De Smith and others to get some help.. We could use another center Andreas Anthansiou so if crosby is gone longer term we have strength down the middle
AS this article says opponents don’t fear Malkin anymore..like 2011
so if we got Anthansiou along with Malkin and Mccann we are pretty strong
Been a while Malkin has been a Easy shut down from other teams
but dont tell that to Zero he will come up with Art ross all kinds of 10 years ago Report
He’s literally been the best player on the ice the last few games lol. What a donkey
6 points in his last four games, has been strong on the puck and seems to be getting more comfortable each game after only being back for 5 now lol… week to week for Letang tho huh.
Funny how they were able to target how long Malkin would be out and he was able to come back early but Letang is always a fucken mystery
No doubt he has but he isn’t feared by other teams like he used to be! He is shut down easily in the playoffs..he has played well, agreed, good fore checking, speed, and play making.less turnovers hope it continues he needs to be a monster for us..
I can see that to a degree, I also think we have basically applied the last 2 years of questionable performance which almost seems tied directly to the Kessel thing that developed. He has looked better this year than at any time in the past 2. While I know he isn’t any younger and its unlikely we will see anything close to the dominant guy he was in 2012 I also think it a bit premature to sell him that short.
A point on the road no letang no crosby no hornqvist..ill take it..
hopefully Crosby is out short term and not longer term…
if malkin played smart in the overtime maybe team wouldve had a chance to get the 2nd point
Kinda like Letang having all the time in the world, shanking a shot wide that was basically the assisting pass on Draisaitls winner yeah?
He is better going under the knife and missing 4 to 6 weeks now then trying to stick it out until April or later and risk making it worse. They will need a healthy team going into Jan to see where the team stands and see if making trades before the deadline will be worth the risk.
Hey Zero How is Greta Doing ?
Coincidence election time we Saw Greta and now we dont hear from her the minute elections were done
