Official GDT: Pens vs Jackets 1/7/25

[DelPen]

No Geno but Puljujarvi has been unleashed.

[pronovost19]

It’s a pool party night in Pittsburgh.

[Crash66]

This bodes well. Whenever Sid and Geno play all 82 games, Pens miss the playoffs.

[Zalapski33]

First shift Puljujarvi forces 2 turnovers and the 3rd Line gets a decent cycle in the Columbus Zone.

[DelPen]

Call the dive too, that was embarrassing for the game

[DelPen]

Great PK by Nieto and Acciari there

[BurghThing]

Well that was easy

[Zalapski33]

Nieto can't get the clear on the PK and it leads to a Goal.

First Shot again gets by Jarry(was a heckuva deflection to be fair).

[BurghThing]

First Shot Jarry

Though that was no where near his fault

[Crash66]

Lizotte centering Line #2 maybe or am I insane?

[Southern Fan]

Jacket defender just did the same thing as Karlsson. But Lizotte didn’t fall down.

[pronovost19]

Marchenko is an impressive young player.

[pekkasteele]

First shift Puljujarvi forces 2 turnovers and the 3rd Line gets a decent cycle in the Columbus Zone.

But did he PK? No, so back to the waivers with him!

[pronovost19]

Acciari let’s JJ own him in front of the net. Sad.

[DelPen]

Acciari can’t clear and Jackets get a good shot on net again.

[DelPen]

You look at Puljujarvi, Nieto, Acciari, Glass and Baeuvilier this game so far and tell me which one you are sure has been a constant scratch I know which one no one would be saying.

[BurghThing]

Absolutely refusing to shoot.

[DelPen]

Veteran move by Letang to get the hooking call

[Crash66]

You look at Puljujarvi, Nieto, Acciari, Glass and Baeuvilier this game so far and tell me which one you are sure has been a constant scratch I know which one no one would be saying.

But we don't see things through the eyes of a "Top 3" NHL coach.

[IntangibleBeer]

Wait. Jack Johnson, THAT Jack Johnson, is playing for CBJ (again)?
Are we still paying for him in some way?

And more importantly, are we going to acquire him again?

I mean, it IS getting close to Ground Hog Day.

[Zalapski33]

You look at Puljujarvi, Nieto, Acciari, Glass and Baeuvilier this game so far and tell me which one you are sure has been a constant scratch I know which one no one would be saying.

Evident with no reasonable or competent explanation for why what has gone on in relation to the Player.

[IntangibleBeer]

Agreed. There is NO justification for scratching Puljujarvi for 12 straight games.

[Pitts]

Why does SportsNet Pittsburgh insist on using OLD guys connected to the team for in studio commentary??? It's horrible! Patrick sounds like he's 90 years old and his brain is 3 steps behind!

The Trottier experiment was a similar failed experiment.

STOP DOING THAT!

[Pitts]

Agreed. There is NO justification for scratching Puljujarvi for 12 straight games.

I hope that line does something tonight. Love the fact that they are all 6'5"! Talk about size. I just wish they would bang bodies around a little more.

[Pitts]

Also, Glass is our 2nd line center! Let that sink in!
