Penguins postgame: Just WOW . Karlsson and Rakell dominant in shootout win
19 comments
Just to be clear, Tommy Novak was the un-sung hero tonight as well. He was playing un-characteristically fierce. I thought he was in the Top -5 performances with Karl, Slick Rick, Chinakhov, and Stu. BUTTTTT…the swedes were UNREAL
Thanks for the coverage Dan! Hope Sid is ok. Great shoutout win.
Owners are simply idiotic for letting players go to the Olympics. Its unreal. I hope that all the people who think NHL players belong there are happy at least.
Hi dan5!
were there any hit on Sid before injury?
Girard is pretty useless, definitely lost on that trade.
Hey Dan! What a thriller! As usual, I had to step out when it went to the SO. By the time I came back, it was over, and I heard we won. I was like 'wow' we did it! I was streaming the game, but listening to the radio broadcast. Both goalies were outstanding IMO also. Thanks for your analysis – which I love!! You give the 'nuts & bolts' so well. In any event, have a great night! Be safe traveling tonight and tomorrow on your way back. Team flight landed safely about an hour ago. See you on the next one! Cheers! 😉🐧🏒💕
Skinner should play sat..
What happened to #87?
That Letang pass in OT made me want to throw my phone. With all of his experience can he not make a simple pass? He's maddeningly maddening. It pisses me off that he gets to take the ice in OT.
Why are you avoiding giving any grade to Sid? He is invisible mostly lately!
Thanks for the detailed recap/thoughts. Hopefully Sid rests until the playoffs. He hasn't been the usual Sid since his return. Malkin wasn't missed tonight and if Letang were to sit the Pens may have a chance at the Playoffs! Well played team!
Skinner has been great. The team didn't turn up in front of him for his last game.
Maybe the Pens don't challenge goalie interference from now on unless it is extremely blatant, and even then, who knows???
As expected. Will see how negative you are next loss.
Erik has an intelligence and creativity in his game that is rare for a defender.
Stop saying you hate to pile on. Because you don't.
Thanks Dan! Love your analysis
At this point the opponent's should just challenge every Penguins goal and interfere at every opportunity they get. Easy 8-0 wins over the Pens. The situation room is unbelievably biased.
Great night for the Swedes!
Sound is strange. Seems like loud and then quiet bits
