At least POJ-Letang has looked good and Chad is protecting Graves on the third pairing.

The loser point is the only reason the isles are ahead of the Pens in the standings. Win/loss says the Pens are better.

Pens should be 20 points above the Isles in the standings and it would be reality if the PP was simply average.Pitts wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:15 pmThe loser point is the only reason the isles are ahead of the Pens in the standings. Win/loss says the Pens are better.

How can any GM think that Drew O’Connor and Phillips are legit 2nd line wingers.Coffey Break wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:14 pmDrew O'Connor is REALLY REALLY bad. I've had enough of his hype every god damn off-season. He's a fringe bottom-6 player. At best.

Not. He could try to score once in a while. He skates quite often with Malkin. Evgeni Malkin for crying out loud!DelPen wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:15 pmThis is quite the take considering everything else wrong with this team.Coffey Break wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:14 pmDrew O'Connor is REALLY REALLY bad.

Re: Official GDT: Pens vs Isles 2/20/24
It's OK. Evgeni Malkin sucks didn't you hear? It shouldn't matter what stiffs he's forced to play with (which has been the case for 80% of his career).lemieuxReturns wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:16 pmHow can any GM think that Drew O’Connor and Phillips are legit 2nd line wingers.Coffey Break wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:14 pmDrew O'Connor is REALLY REALLY bad.

Graves once again with his contribution to the team on that shift.
Ned can't give up that one.

Re: Official GDT: Pens vs Isles 2/20/24
Agreed. But if you look at the records, the Pens and Isles should be flipped. Loser points suck. And I’ve thought that since they started this whole 3 point system.DelPen wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:16 pmPens should be 20 points above the Isles in the standings and it would be reality if the PP was simply average.Pitts wrote: Tue Feb 20, 2024 9:15 pmThe loser point is the only reason the isles are ahead of the Pens in the standings.

Re: Official GDT: Pens vs Isles 2/20/24
This team has no heart. Maybe Dubas can find some guys who’ll play with some urgency and concern. These guys are a bunch of slackers.

Graves needs to spend some games in the press box.

Yep. Sit Puustinen on the PP. Cut his minutes and send him down.

Puustinen needs to be careful or he’ll be scratched or sent back to WBS if he keeps doing hockey things
