its not like Sid is anything special 3 on3 or Geno for that matter, but DOC on 3 on 3 was criminal offense, Eller was absolutely awful,

I thought they played last 8-9 minutes after shiting the pants first 10 minutes in third...they came really really strong, last 3 minutes with 2:2 they pressed and skated, so thats it...

I hated POJ game tonight, he buckles so quickly under any pressure, and its all confidence..
I though EK 5 on 5 was really good..

L1 was a-okay...did oK
Geno is really good playing smart, what a difference having Bunt slowing down the game and allowing for possession.

Eller has been sucking this stretch, after being so good for so long..it does not help that he plays with two totally lost wingers (he should stick with Bemstrom on 3rd)
L4 is awful, Carter sucks, water is wet
The poj thing, he sucked balls tonight but I don’t think that malkin reaction earlier in the game when he f***ed up a pass is the best thing to build a young players confidence, he went downhill from there

I have never seen a fourth line play so well this season than when Pool Party, Gruden, and Poulin gave it a go against Carolina. Can't help but to think there was something different with that line.

Rossi coming in to defend Sullivan with another stupid argument just firmly reminds me of how thoroughly unlikable this team is as a whole.

It's not that the players are unlikeable, in fact most of the players seem like genuinely good people. It's just the team as a whole that is wildly unlikeable, from all of the aspects for how they play, how they act and the level of arrogance they have.

our TOP 6 is so much better than our direct competition for the playoffs we should be favorite to make it...

Our goalie is above average
our dman are OK
if we can get anything from the bottom 6 I would not worry a second that they won't make it

Rob Rossi is such a weenus.

The whole team blows at 3 on 3. We know that. It doesn't give the coach a pass to put the dumbest f***ing possible combination of players out there for like two full minutes. Again... for the SECOND time this season. Because... what... Malkin has given up some OT goals this year? Pitiful explanation.

EDIT: Skate issue "per Sullivan" lol OK.

Coming into Toronto on the road who they have been ass against for years now and getting a point and playing that well is still huge. Play like that vs Detroit at home and they’ll win comfortably.

:laugh: You saw that too! I reacted during the game...anyways, that has always been Geno's thing, POJ should not be losing confidence like that...

Washington got one point vs terrible Ottawa team playing their second game of B2B last night at home. We got one point in Toronto. We don´t control our fate over Washington, but they would have to win 5 games now. They are on a 6 game losing streak now. Looking at their schedule, it´s TOUGH. Caps play in Detroit now, then in Buffalo, then they play Tampa and Boston and their last game is in Philly. Caps will be happy with 3 wins from this. I think that´s the maximum for them.

We just HAVE TO BEAT DETROIT really. If we do that in regulation, I think we can even lose one more game and still make it. Every team will drop some points here and there. Isles are playing the Rangers twice btw, they are not safe either.

I'm not holding the dipshit media and dumbass coaching against the players.

Weenus, lol.

Rob Rossi's picture would be in the dictionary for the definition of a weenus.

Pens just don't have the D here as they don't handle pressure well. Leafs turned up the heat and Pens struggles getting the puck out. But a point and better than a loss. I think it still comes down to the last game but just can't lose to Detroit. That is a must win.

Sully doesn't think, he's like Letang...no brains. Even I would have started our best players in overtime in a must win game.
Maybe that's why they don't practice 3 on 3......Sully has no clue. What could he possibly instruct them to do?
