Official 08-09 Penguins Thread

I just said that they’re hardly shooting, that although we had 34 it didn’t seem like it, and that 34 seems to be an abnormality the past few games.

Letangs back! i would sit boucher!

how do you miss the worlds tallest defenseman waiting in the back door lol…1st and 2nd period defensively we sucked…

3rd period fleury sucked… we had a ton of shot son tim thomas and the thing I have never understood about tim thomas is how he always looks out of position and always has that stunned looked yet he managed to make a ton of saves I meen whatever works I just dont know how he does it!

If we are going to beat boston we need to play 3 solid periods tonight put people in front of thomas so those 34 shots we scould actually score some goals and try to play a tighter defense!!!

i agree with burny (its my new yr resolution to agree with him more so he doesnt get mad)

We need to play a lot better hockey. I say put jeffery on genos line :slight_smile: #42 woo woo

Jeffrey got one tonight nice!

2nd period is boring thus far.

I dunno about the chemistry… we need to trade some guys and mix things up… we are sucking… no shots on power play, we aren’t attacking the guy with the puck… wtf is up with geno?? no look passes that dont even make it to the guy, doing circles in our zone, not rushing the puck… we dump and no chase…

horrible!!!

and hate to make excuses but wtf are with the the refs… people are getting hooked and hacked in front of the net and behind and then they look and we get a penalty… the last games have been the worst calling by refs I have seen…

yes that was my thoughts exactly as I was watching this game tonight, I think we need to trade around some guys and get some better guys at the blue line, someone who can play 2 way hockey score goals and play well in our zone… scuderi played really well tonight as did letang… wtf is up with talbot? Like it seems lke ever since he signed that contract he hasnt done shit, he stops skating all the time and does not through him self around lie a typical goon would…

what I would really like to see is if we could trade someone with a backup goalie who is capable of making back to back starts as well as a defenseman, something like a deal that would involve saborin for someone like josh harding… im sure with the salary cap and this time of the year people are wanting to get rid of players… especially some of these teams who have too much wrapped into goaltending right now I am anxious to see what will happen with chicago.

Also about tonight all we did was come down the wing and shoot it right into fernanadez’s chest we did not pursue rebounds as well as we should have also :frowning:

i hate to say this but the only person that did go for a rebound was fedatenko… and he scored… maybe his trade value will go up. and once again I agree with ya, talbot and cooke really dont seem like they are playing their agitator role… wtf is up with that. I think we needed bissonate due to godard being out that game, he would atleast fight! I really dont like the 7 D. We need to cut someone loose like eaton and boucher… they havent really shown me anything lately.

:jerkit:

:bowrofl:

didnt eaton just make an awesome stop on a goal the other night vs New Jersey?

eaton plays well in front of the net.

fedetanko is only a 1 year deal which would not be the greatest as far as trade bate :frowning: we should have a talented team as it is… but I do agree that talbot and cooke are not doing what they are assigned to do, epsecially when talbot signed that deal and cooke is now a alternate captaiN!!!

:bash:

wow holy fuck, do the pens even care they keep getting crushed by some of the worst teams in the NHL? And sabourin keeps proving my point that he is the worst goaltender in the NHL, at what point do you suck so fucking bad that the coach switches back to the goalie he already pulled. It just seems like they don’t even care, it’s like a bunch of fuckin kindercare kids out there wearing pens jerseys. We’re getting zero production from players that started off so promising, we need to get out of this funk like immediately

Nice ass whopping by Sid though.

A couple of weeks ago my buddy said that he thinks the players are trying to blow some games to get Therrien out of there. I thought he was crazy because we were like 4th in the East. His thoughts don’t seem too crazy right now since we’ve dropped to 9th in the East.

well something has to change!

Was at the game today… Watching the Talbot and Crosby back to back ass whippings was worth this 6-1 defeat… lol

ya thats cool that those guys dropped the gloves but it still didnt do shit for the team…

does it seem to anyone else that malkin isnt passing as much as he used to, like hes trying to go through five guys all the time? or is it me…

also anyone else think therrien might get the axe if they lose the next two??

Sounds like he’s playing like your style :smiley:

knew that was coming from either u or shawn… ass. and look whos talking I pass more then you do… even though its to gube and brad and they dont score!! :slight_smile:
