New Look Pens Try to Turn Over a New Leaf GNT

I think that kissed off Staal for the goal.

BTW, any word on the TK situation? Type/length of injury?

 

[JustAsking]

I guess, but these teams we are losing to now are not the top teams anymore. Losing to the Canes and Leafs is about as bad as it gets for a playoff considering the losing streak and streak of games without a reg win.

Even a small animal is dangerous when backed into a corner... these teams are fighting for their lives... orpik, martin, kunitz, and TK will make a difference...

 

[ELYEAH82]

These are teams fighting for life...that's harder.


AND TESTTTTTY!

The Pens should be fighting for their lives as well. They certainly shouldnt feeling good about things...

 

[pixburgher66]

What a back pass from Kovy. Oh my gosh.

 

[ELYEAH82]

Holy Shit we have a lead folks

if you don;t think the pens are playing hard, we are watching two different games...

[joe_baran]

[BlueandWhiteForever]

Reimer is off his game tonight. Fucking horrible goal.

I am not saying that, I am saying desperation should be on both sides. And if it is and we cant compete with teams like the Leafs, Isles, Rags, and Canes we will have trouble hanging on to a playoff spot.

Hahahaha, anyone else think it's funny they play CCR Fortunate Son after that one? Hahahah, kinda American-esque though I love CCR though, so good choice!

I understand what you mean, but the Pens haven't been off on the work ethic since probably the Isles game. They're working hard, not getting the production quite. I think the additions/health increasing will help, but now it's chemistry and getting used to eachother. Our first line is 3 players who started the season with 3 different teams, but they look great. I think we just have to be patient right now. After Monday we'll know what our team will be like once and for all, then the focus is chemistry. We have time.

He's looked off all night...big rebounds.

If Orpik, Martin, Kunitz, TK, Asham (lesser degree) were all out for the year, I would share your concerns. (Notice I assume Sid is already done for the year).

Did TK get hurt? Or is he/did he get traded?

Injured, haven't heard specifics myself on how badly. Seemed to be a gametime decision since I think he was in the morning skate.

 

[BlueandWhiteForever]

CLARKIE!!!! All tied up

You heard 'injured'... if a player is about to get traded... teams normally won;t play them....
