Two straight wins at home against their hated rival.

At least my baseball team understood the assignment.

On the Penguins:

The thing that really stings is that this series feels like an amalgamation of 2012, 2013, 2019, all at once.

Guys not willing to just play.

Guys not showing up.

Coaches happy to get outcoached.

The only new element:

87 has disappeared.

58 sucks.

71 too inconsistent.

Appreciate that, more than you know.

And yes, at least there are things to look forward to.

Dark times, my friends.

And I ain’t just talking hockey.

But that too, for sure.

Life sucks. Hockey is decidedly no longer helping via distraction.

Eat Arby’s. Or whatever that phrase is.

Fuck.

Don’t think I can listen to this as it gets worse. Hope they come back. Make fun of me for sitting here in silence if they do.

Let’s Go Pens.

Thanks for doing everything you can, Stu.

You deserve better

The Flyers should thank the refs for that.

The fact this is a Philly power play when Rust got elbowed in the face and kicked multiple times by that piece of shit, it’s a fucking joke.

The irony of Hathaway getting mad at Crosby for diving is Hathaway has actually been fined for embellishment. Which means the NHL flagged him for multiple embellishments to eventually fine him. Hockey rules.

Also, the refs are chickenshits who got scared into the even up call.

Garnett Hathaway, well known fuckbag.

If the Penguins could stop handling the puck as if it is a live hand grenade, that would be nice.

I was at a beer festival for Game 1 of that series. Wish I would have stayed drunk for the whole thing.

Please and thank you.

I was at the 2011 game. That was particularly excruciating. Kovalev and Letestu. Lots of those two.

They cursed us tonight!

Being stuck in terrible parking after a loss is just a kick in the teeth.

Can’t argue with any of this. Just, holy hell.

We got people saying they didn’t try.

We got people saying they did try, but aren’t good enough.

We got people saying they did try and are good enough, but are getting outcoached.

At this point, I don’t know who is right and who is wrong.

I just want them to find a way to win games.

They are going to Philly down 2-0.

It’s up to them if they want to play their way back into the series, or play their way out of the playoffs.

By all rights, they should be out of this one entirely.

Please be important, special teams.

If only they had this energy and desperation from minute one tonight.

Kris Letang is bottoming out in front of our eyes.

The penalty kill is the only thing going well in this series so far for the Pens.

Blake Lizotte matters, for sure.

Accurate.

Tocchet is doing well, maximizing the results with a team with weaknesses.

Muse is not maximizing anything with his team.

Is it injury? Ineffectiveness? I’m not sure.

But you are 1000% right that it is completely disheartening.

It’s fair. Just brutal defending gets noticed more when the offense isn’t making up for it. And clearly, the goalie can’t fix everything.

They can’t afford any mistakes the rest of the way in this one to even have a chance.

And yes, Sid should be on a milk carton right now.

Yeah, it allowed bad habits and rust to seep in.

This series has been all about bad habits.
