So sick of Hank being thrown under the bus while the defense pisses away the season. Hell, the offense too for that matter. They've even had their moments over this last stretch. Marc Staal is garbage, and I'm tired of people making excuses for him.
We dont score enough goals. We make critical defensive mistakes. And lately....we have had subpar goaltending. Lets be honest here, nothing about this team screams GREAT or even GOOD.
Torts and Sather have a big decision to make. Lots of hockey in a short span heading into round 1. Lundqvist looks terrible and has been since the Tampa game.
Do they acquiesce 1st place, cut down on minutes and give Biron more time?
9 games in 15.5 days including tonight. Playoffs begin on the 11th.
Not Henriks fault... Tough bounces, played a good game, then gave up some odd man rushes when we were down. Richards and Gaborik each had a chance to tie it but just couldnt finish. Its a tough one but it is wat it is. Regroup tomorrow...Pitts gotta lose at some point.
mitchell looked like he blatantly wanted to score on hank. i cant stand mitchell anymore especially over the past month. i hope mza will be ok. defensive breakdowns all over the ice and gradually growing worse as the game went on. the usual 1 or 2 times where we are pinned in our own zone 5-5 is really,really,REALLY getting old. hank was disappointing. the end.
Once again going into the playoffs, pressures gonna be on Hank to let in 2 or less goals cause if we score 3 or more goals in a game its cause for celebration.
i have no words...as soon as zook went down it seemed to be downhill...
we MUST win the next 4 games...because 3 of our final 4 games are against the bruins, philly, pitts....those are going to be rough games and frustrating if by that point the penguins have not lost a game
help...we need somebody...help...not just anybody...help...give us chris kreider
Losing Zuccarello hurts, nay it kills. Hopefully Mitchell gets the boot and a guy like Wellman comes up, we need skill here. I don't want to see just Feds added to the lineup, Zucc's proved the skill was needed, get another skill guy.
Just looked like the team was fighting the puck the whole night, some poor decisions from the defense, a couple of shots that Hank would save when he's really on his game and you have a 4-1 decision.
We're finishing in 4th or 5th, I've accepted that.
