And their goalie is hot as hell so the only way you score is net traffic.  As if our pussy team will do that.

Nice.  Kuzy at 27% face-off effectiveness.  Shows he's got not fucking regard for anything but his dipsy doo moves.  That's just a matter of practice and hard work.  That's why guys like Beagle and Boyd are good at it.

    Vrana is the definition of a one dimensional player.

WHAT A FUCKING JOKE this team is.  Starting to get to be a big enough sample size to say "we are what we are."  21 or 22 games.  We are a .500 hockey team at best.  Other teams grow into themselves, start slow and get better as the year goes along.  Pittsburgh is like that every year.  WE were like that in 2018. This is a classic example of come flying out of the gates and the coaches do nothing to improve the team as the season goes along, ignore the mistakes that we scored out way out of, and this is what you get.  We have either regressed or not improved while all the other teams in the Metro (perhaps NYI excluded) are better.  Unless there is a change of major proportions we are NOT GOOD ENOUGH to make the playoffs.

Our face offs have been appalling for a while now, right the wy down  the lines.  Bckstrom's game has been off lately.

Agree 100% on Nicky.  I think human nature -- he finally signed his big deal -- has caught up with him.  Or else he's hurt.  He's skating like in quicksand.

The guys had energy, but got outplayed by a bottom feeder. Should we expect more at this point?


BTW, hi from Bunghole Lakehouse.




Are you coming Alta?
Be careful what you ask for America; you just might get it.

     Backstroms game has been off. I have really noticed that his defensive game has really regressed this season. Always a step behind. 2 years ago he was a Selke candidate. I think he finished 7th in voting. Now he is average at best.

     Probably not. The team he came from was alot worse than the Caps. He played with Karlsson and Burns so he has played with very bad defenders before.

Agreed.  And we have him signed forever.  I love Nicky as a "core" guy but his game requires 200 feet of hockey.  If Ovi doesn't play great D it's okay because he does what virtually nobody can do -- score at any time.  Backstrom needs to play well at both ends to be effective and I've seen him less aggressive digging out pucks.  My guess is he's hurt in some way.  He really struggled the year he had the concussion and he has had a couple more smaller ones.

Didn't think the garbage ran on Saturday.. I was wrong.  :clown: :poop:  Came out looking pretty good, farted around for 4 minutes of PP time and gave up I guess. Team has so little heart/fight its nearly unwatchable..

Like I said after they didn't score.  Time to hang the heads and sulk.

Great pressure and that fucking dog, Jensen, shoots a wrist shot right to the goalie.  Loser.

Why the fuck is Gudas sitting while Jensen is playing?  He really adds zero.
