Re: Steelers sign WR Quez Watkins

IDK. A lot of things have to go right for them to be a solid contender. We’d need a coaching staff to actually make all the new pieces mesh, for one. This coaching staff takes 12 games to teach the players how to perform a simple substitution, and that’s largely with players who have been there for...

Re: Pens vs Sharks (3/14/24)

Fun fact: The Pens are only 5 points out of a playoff spot, and have played the least amount of games of all the other teams vying for that spot. Saw someone tweet that last night and it blew my mind. I haven’t been paying much attention, but I’m guessing the other WC teams aren’t setting the world ...

Re: Pens vs Capitals (3/7/24)

Ruhwedel traded to the Rangers for a 4th round pick.

That's basically a bag of chips in the hockey world, but we're at least getting something for these guys who are FAs at the end of the season, and shouldn't be kept anyways.

I see Sully still has a job. After last nights drubbing the end can't be that far, right? I can see how they might get hammered against a team like Edmonton, on a difficult trip but they were just stick figures out there last night against a Caps team that is mediocre at best. And the trade. Couldn...

Re: Pens vs Flames (3/2/24)

Awful loss.

If you’d asked me to predict the score after 2 periods, I’d have said 5-1 or 5-2. We were that dominant.

Then it all fell apart in the third.

Re: Pens vs Kraken (2/29/24)

To update the other, more reasonable folks who didn't stay up, Pens actually played one of the most complete games I've seen out of them this season. Chances galore. Skated hard as hell. They were super aggressive and disruptive on the forecheck. Taking every open shot they had (almost to their detr...

Re: Pens vs Canucks (2/27/24)

Carter in the Horny role is interesting. Another thing that I read about a few months ago. Sid is really our best puck retriever along the boards and using him in that role on the PP is a waste of talent. Not sure why Rust can't fill that role to a degree because he will battle on the wall. ^ This ...

Relax, it was a joke, but Sully is a slave to his style of coaching and stuck in his ways. I too went to bed with the Pens behind and woke up to see they won. Must have been a great third period and more. As for Malkin, it seems he basically got benched in the first period looking at the TOI late a...
