Official GDT: Pens vs Jackets 3/28/24

[DelPen]

Another late lineup not out yet. Wonder if there’s some disagreement on the old man playing?

[Admin]

Pirates need to end their game…

[KG]

Sounds like Carter is in and Gruden is out lol

Gruden was far too physical and played with too much emotion last game. Let’s get the artist formerly known as Jeff Carter back in ASAP!

[DelPen]

Carter in for Gruden. Henry Davis doesn’t want this Pirates game to end.

[DelPen]

[BurghThing]

Done with Sullivan

[KG]

Done with Sullivan

And putting Carter back in the lineup means Puljujarvi has to play on his off wing. One game after he played his best game of the season.

Carter needs to retire so Sullivan can’t pencil him into the lineup anymore

[DelPen]

And Getzoff talking up younger players playing ignoring. Carter displacing 2 younger players.

Just another decision by this Coach that shows he has no intention of adapting or adjusting his way of doing things.

Gruden goes out there,plays physical,drops thd gloves,doesn't do anything that put his team in a bad spot and gets scratched for a guy who won't be around next year.

No doubt he gets his list of what he can't discuss from FSG.

But Sullivan is the coach to lead the young guys in the future?!

[DelPen]

At least Bemstrom a scratch makes sense. If Jackets were smart they would let him score 5 in the game if he played to get the 3rd rounder.

What a useless trade.

[KG]

Ned makes more important saves than Jarry. It’s about timely saves with goalies. Jarry is not good when it comes to that.

[KG]

lol Bourque I think you mean chefs kiss. Not French kiss lol

[DelPen]

I don’t care if all Poulin becomes is a very good 4th liner because this team needs younger players who can play and if he can fill that roll that’s fine.

[Zalapski33]

But Sullivan is the coach to lead the young guys in the future?!

Not a chance.He was talking recently about Reilly Smith being part of the Pens "Core" and how his leadership this season has been a big part of what they have done.

[KG]

Both teams defending like they are playing the string out

[Zalapski33]

13 minutes into this game and has Rakell touched the puck once?

[Maestro]

Some youth, hunger, speed and low and behold they look like a hockey team again.
Go figure. Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every now and again.

Has Ned had an easy save yet?

[DelPen]

The Pirates 3rd base coach might be worse than Rierden.

He’s not wrong

That call in the 10th was silly.

[BurghThing]

Smith just shows up for the paycheck
