Official GDT: Pens @ Sens 12/14/24

[DelPen]

Great defense by EK there

[BurghThing]

Thanks Jars, top 5 pick, here we come

[Puck-Lurker]

Let me hear how Jarry was great this game, just one more time.

[Zalapski33]

Karlsson gets abused on the OT Losing Goal.Did absolutely zip to defend there.
Jarry with Zero reaction.

[penscup]

Tough loss but that’s a big point they got.

Jarry was great.

Ullmark was a fraction better.

[PensFanSince1970]

Pick a camera angle and stay with it. This isn't an amusement park ride

Exactly. I swear the camera coverage gets worse. I long for the days when the camera was center ice the whole game. I despise the behind the net view and into the corners view.

[Southern Fan]

How are Drew O’Connor’s analytics? The eye test says he’s fighting it. Might be the player Jesse replaces for a game.

Steigy said on the postgame show that the Rangers are still bananas about getting Sullivan to be their coach somehow according to his sources.

[largegarlic]

I don't know why this came to mind again for me right now, but Karlsson was so bad during that OT. Not just the goal, but his whole shift he made bad decisions.

Sullivan and the 2025-2030 1sts for a bag of pucks to the NYR.

Would you even care about the return? I’d be happy with Sullivan for an 8th round pick in 2040 while hoping they add more rounds to the draft by then.

Take DOC with him. Guy is showing why he was undrafted.

I think you could still get something for DOC, Sully needs to be out of here by the time we need to start playing young draftees

There are reportedly several teams that have shown interest in him. They should be able to move him at the deadline, and they should.

[ahawk9]

I've always really rooted for DOC, and I was pleasantly surprised with his scoring touch last year and early this one. I'm wondering if that burst of production was the outlier with him and he's reverted to what he really is. I'm still hoping he pops through but, regardless, if there are teams who want to trade for him I think they should do it.

I think they'd be able to move him, and think they should. I like DOC, I think he just is what he is; a tweener that can get hot for a little stretch. The issue is, when he's not hot, he doesn't do much else. Every once in a while he'll have a nice hard forecheck, but most of the time he's just around. Skates hard, and when he gets to where he was trying to go, nothing happens. Just leaves you wanting so much more.

I think he's snakebit, but in the end I think he's a solid 3rd liner that can be elevated for a few games. I wouldn't just trade him for a low return but if they can get an end of 2nd round pick (unlikely but GMs get weird at the deadline) or any 3rd round pick, I'd trade him. or if he's an add on to get more assets in a Pettersson trade.

[Antonio]

DOC is and never has been in my opinion, anything but a replaceable lower middle lineup guy. Never have gotten the nonsense sentiment that he is some valuable asset. If you got a 2nd for him, I would fire him out of town on a rocket. He is absolutely fine and I think overall he has a place in a lineup for sure, but he is nothing worth mentioning. He is not in any way shape or form an untouchable piece, or something you build around, etc.

[Maestro]

DOC for a LD would be a good idea atm.

[Puck-Lurker]

DOC for a LD would be a good idea atm.

Retroactively, it has been a good idea all season. It's not like Grzelcyk and Graves being poo, Shea being Shea, is news at this stage.

That's the thing with DOC. He's so big and so fast, if he was simply crushing guys in the corners, I'd be OK with it. Same as net-front - if he could learn how to park it there and just be a physical disruptive force looking for ugly rebounds, he'd be perfect. Unfortunately, you can't teach that to soft players.

[Maestro]

I'd do DOC for Erik Brannstrom

I think he’s a bit like Dupuis, someone who would do well with a guy like Crosby in his prime but is a 3rd liner otherwise. He’s the kind who becomes valuable at the deadline, smart player, can PK, has some speed, can play anywhere in the lineup, small cap hit.
