It’s like they forgot it was 3 on 3. Just horrible decision making. With zero repercussions.Empty Sweater wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 9:39 pm Sid & Jake both go deep and leave Letang & Ned out to dry. There are some serious issues with the team. Can’t blame the goaltending.
Well said. It’s not so much that they’re losing, it’s how they are losing. Minimal intensity, they soff. Where’s the fight ?Zalapski33 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 9:56 pm 2nd straight game vs the Flyers with very little intensity from either team.
Ned was outstanding.He made some incredible stops to get them a point,
Malkin again with a no show disinterested effort.No excuse for this.
Smith did absolutely zero,can hardly remember him being on the ice.
Karlsson,Letang and Graves were awful for the bulk of this game.Turnovers galore,lousy decisions,head scratching play.
The PP once again costs this team a point.Completely useiess.To watch Malkin,Letang and Karlsson refuse to shoot the puck on the late 3rd Period opportunity was shameful.Coaches have to be responsible for this.At no juncture should the same 5 guys be on the ice after going 0-32(if thats correct) and only scoring 7 total goals in 24 games.Does Crosby have a PP Goal this Year?
Enough is enough with the lack of accountability for the PP Failure.This aged 1 Line Team has been given enough decent Goaltending of late to be in a better position in the standings if there was even 2-3 games with 1 PP Goal.They won't make the Playoffs due to squandering the 4-7 Points these games cost them. And the Coaching Staff has to pay the price for that.
Both of them going to chase the puck behind the net was so **** dumb.THEREALpittsburghpenguins wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 9:44 pm Crosby and guentzel both attacked the defenseman off the lost face off. Wasn't even close to a 50/50 puck. Their d just read their stupidity and wrapped it around the boards for the 2 on 1 game winner. This team is no longer fun to watch. We play like a peewee team. Bleed breakaways. Goalies have been really good. Team needs a new direction with a new coach. Can't fire all the players. This team was probably going to be a borderline playoff team at best but they were supposed to be entertaining to watch. That hasn't happened. This might be the worst power play I've seen since I started watching hockey, which was at the age of 6, and I'm now 44 years old. They don't move. They don't shoot. They are so easy to read. I've never seen a team give up so many short handed breakaways. It is truthfully pathetic. Watching other teams work the pp makes you wonder what sully is telling them. I guess they still got 2 of 4 points, so at least there is that.
Honestly, I thought that was to get rid of Hextall and team. Even Sully had some questionable quotes about the losing and almost pointing the finger at Hextall in the end.HellsKitchen7 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 04, 2023 9:48 pmI thought it looked that way last year on their multiple losing streaks.
