2016-2017 Pens----Still with 100% more Kessel

[MTC]

The Pens cannot clear the puck to save their lives. And they try to set rushes/get fancy trying to clear. Thats what is killing them.
The Pens speed is better along the boards, which kinda plays into the caps physical play --- but Rust, Kessel and Hagelin seem to have success weasling in. They'll get it figures out. It's only 1 period. PPG needs to keep rocking

 

[MTC]

I hope so. You just can't keep playing like that for much longer.

My version is "rope a hope"

That's all I can do is hope

 

[MTC]

I think it's over...They blew the chance to close this series out and move on in the 3rd period the other night...Washington wants it more than the Penguins and you can see it.

I hope I am wrong but I doubt it...

I honestly think the Pens are tired. Like dead tired. That speed aspect isn't infectious through all the lines

Game 7 and it is over. They need to end it tonight.

Still 2 periods to go. Keep the faith boys. Fugly hockey. But ever so optimistic here

The pens have been outplayed every game. Bad goaltending by Holtby and great goaltending by Fleury allowed the Pens to take a 3-1 lead. Also the Caps have hit a ton of posts that would have changed the outcome of a couple games. Heck one game they hit 4 posts. Anyways Pens are surviving and seem better so far this period. Need to get it going...

 

[thesteelcity]

there's the fight this team doesn't have and the Caps do.

 

[str8liner]

What a bunch of sloppy puck handling careless MFers.....

Hiansey gets mugged and raped on that goal...

Off to make supper and save the aggravation.

 

[Sarge]

Pens are done. They quit trying to earn it.

 

[Steelr4evr]

That looks awful. Do they know they're at home and this is the playoffs?

 

[SteelerFan448]

Can't even clear the zone off the boards. Awful.

 

[Sarge]

Well, at least the Pens are good at icing.

 

[jitter77]

The intensity / effort between the 2 teams is night and day. Pens seem to have no interest in this game

 

[SteelBuckeye]

Sloppy ... Sloppy passes. Sloppy skating. Sloppy puck handling. Sloppy defense. Sloppy.

I'm just going to drink my whiskey now ... smh

 

[Sarge]

I hope they don't think they can win a game 7 in Washington playing like this.

 

[MTC]

Jesus christ! Is the defense still in the locker room?
+: finally some pressure
-: everything

 

[MTC]

I hope they don't think they can win a game 7 in Washington playing like this.

Like this? No

 

[thesteelcity]

Well, this continues and they head back to DC, I have band practice, so i will miss the game, so it will save years off my life. This is torture anyway.

 

[MTC]

Lol. Kick *** at practice

 

[MTC]

Aye!

Pens are flat out beat right now

 

[thesteelcity]

call a TO Sullivan. This team is in disarray right now. Do something!

 

[Steel G]

This team is done. Tired, lost and confused.

Lol. Kick *** at practice

it will be more productive than this **** show.

 

[steelermania]

Let's be honest, Washington has dominated play this entire series. If not for Fleury, and some crappy play early on by Holtby, the Pens would already be on the golf course.
