I bet everyone is stoked about that Phillips signed jersey in the Lemieux Foundation bags this year.

I want to know where Sullivan is taking them to get pizza after the game.

I wish Graves would witness a mob hit and be placed in witness protection.

I could give it to my niece who’s under 5 feet tall but it might not fit her still.

I’m sure the postgame comments from the coach will include something like: we competed hard in the third period

Colby says this was EK's best game as a Pen. I'm thinking he may have a drinking problem.

Getting 1 Point in this game was empty since they lost to the worst team in OT games in the NHL.
A late 3rd Period rally from strong efforts from Puustinen,Eller,Malkin and DOC.All played strong to get it tied.
Letang had a lousy game but nothing compared to Graves who once again was a liability in every facet of the game.
Ned with 2 awful goals allowed.Can't give them up in a game like this.
Once again the PP failed in a close game.Never got close to scoring and gave up another backbreaker when one ended.

Dubas and Sully decided Matthew Phillips was a difference maker.As clueless a move as could be imagined.3 Forwards who get sweaters-White,Harkins and Phillips do not belong in the NHL.2 of them(Harkins and White) got a lot of praise early in training camp and 1 was spoken of in glowing terms the past 4 days.
This entire organization is stubborn,arrogant and unable to realize the decisions both off and on the ice that have put them as a bottom 10 Team that won't be in the Playoffs.This game was there to be had against an Isles Team that blows 3rd Period Leads and is awful in OT.Didn't take advantage and won't recover.

Sully, "Puusty has offensive ability that we haven't tapped into. He has a real good shot. " Well who's f***ing fault is that? He sits the guy with the "good shot" on the PP in favor of the midget. What an ***clown. More of the compete hard jibberish. Something to build on blah blah blah.

Sully’s actions speak louder than his words. He clearly thinks Puus is a one-dimensional player. He is only dressed because they need goal scoring in the worst way.

Whatever, it’s passed the point. This season is done. Do the right thing, make some sizable smart hockey trades to get this team younger, deeper, more talented and hungrier.

And fire the coach.

Harkins and his 5 minutes of ice time. Yet Puljujarvi and his new 2 year contract can’t get a sweater.

Yes he didn’t look good last game, before that he’s been one of their most physical players. We can’t have that though.

In my honest opinion, Matthew Phillips doesn't deserve the hate being shown him. Coming off the waiver wire with a chance to get some NHL ice time, while playing on Malkin's wing would feel like Christmas.

It isn't his fault for not being taller; he's met a goal of playing hockey at an elite level while earnings a professional paycheck.

He's not going to tell the coach "no, I am not good enough to get this much ice time, heck, I just went from the AHL to the NHL with a new team. Play someone who knows the playbook".

Torpedo **** ***** ******, ***********************,(!!!) ***** *****-************* Sullivan into the sun!!!

I don't understand Karlsson's game- how he plays.
Last night at the game, they appeared to be shooting the puck to open spaces, not to players. 5 on 5 and the power play.

Please allow Rust to go to the 2nd line. Maybe Sid can unlock the offensive potential of Phillips.

NYI have kept many of their core too.

Could we sign Jaromir, he is still here? GM Dubas, what now?

The fact he is a turnover machine and can’t score goals in the NHL earns him any scorn coming his way.

He is trying to play how the coaches want him to play. It’s not hard to understand what the problem is.
