    Sullivan is coaching this team like it’s 16-17. Clean hahs and get a run in before it’s too late.

    “I thought we had flashes of playing really strong hockey and opportunities to build momentum but we have to play a full 60 minutes. We were generating shots, generating scoring chances, especially on the powerplay, unfortunately we just didn’t get enough pucks into the net. Hopefully we can get back to playing our game and focusing on the little details and building some momentum.”

    -Sullivan in the post game probably.

    He’s lost the room. Reirden shouldn’t have even made it through the off season, seriously why the fuck is he still here.

  3. Hiding_Meatball

    Pass pass pass pass pass pass. SHOOT THE FUCKING PUCK HOLY SHIT

  4. MMXcalibur

    I didn’t think the Penguins could get me more upset, but here we are.

  5. Boomerangshot23

    5 on 3 for the last two minutes and we still manage to concede a goal…

  6. The shot disparity every game is what concerns me… We always allow so many goals with such low shots

  7. Fatbottombetty

    Life as a Pittsburgh sports fan is pretty rough right now

  8. glass-world

    “Hey let’s all stand in the exact same spot and pass to each other on the 5 0n 3”

  9. GarrettMF3369

    That was the most penguins way to lose a game.

  10. How is every backup in the league better than our starter?

  11. Aceofspades200

    I get that the defense is not great but Tristan Jarry not being able to make a save is becoming a legitimate issue for this team. Earlier in the year he at least wasn’t losing you games but now it’s starting to feel like he’s actively losing us games

  12. The PP can’t be this anemic for us to have any hope of being successful, especially with the personnel on it. Unacceptable.

  13. im glad we’ve all come to the thread together. holy shit i’m embarrassed to be a pens fan right now. absolute disaster class

  14. CuhRareOH

    MAKE A SAVE!

    How many times did Jarry hand this game away. I’m not a Jarry hater like some but that’s awful.

  15. Ghostrider5588

    5 on 3 and too many passes and zero execution. Pathetic. Letang and Crosby had horrible turnovers that lead directly to goals from players wide open in front of the next. Embarrassing display

  16. big_oofskis

    a class on how to blow a 5 on 3. the passing just pissed me off so much, Malkin had a great opportunity more than once to one time it. maybe its just me being salty but this coaching is getting beyond absurd.

  17. Yep I’m absolutely on the fire everyone train after that lol. Ducks lose their starting goalie AND coach and we fucking lose in the worst way imaginable despite having a 5 on 3 nearing the end of a tie game

    I need some time off from this team lol it fucking sucks to watch so many talented players manage to lose every damn game

  18. JordanHerald5

    I mean that is one of the most atrocious endings to a game I’ve seen in a long time.

  19. tenth_avenue

    To not only not score on a 5 on 3… but to fail to even hold on for an overtime point. I have no words….

  20. thecarlosdanger1

    Teams 3-6 with a closing window of being able to compete with the core. They turned over a ton of the roster, coaching staff needs to be on an incredibly short leash.

    Would be cool to come away from like 1 close game feeling like we had better goaltending but not a ton they can do there.

  21. wonderfulwilliam

    We are the only team in the league where 5 on 3 is not an automatic goal

  22. user832906

    They don’t play until saturday??? Perfect time to fire a coach

  23. biggamebryan_17

    Can anyone give me a valid reason Mike Sullivan and Todd Reirden still have a job here?

  24. Jarry ALWAYS shits the bed in big moments when he’s needed. I’m not sure there were better options in FA but there were cheaper ones that wouldn’t suck any worse.

    Fire Sullivan and Reirden.

    Out of the box and score.

    I might actually walk on a treadmill with Legos.

  26. ExtensionDigs

    Fire Todd Reirden TONIGHT. That’s not a power play, it’s keep away for two minutes, ZERO movement and you have the GD 5-on-3!!! They wasted literally more than 40 seconds passing it around with the two-man advantage, might as well sat in their own end and killed it for the Ducks, Who the F coaches a team to stand still on the power play?? Reirden, that’s who. And that cherry on top…simply unreal, but let’s be honest, who here thought Jarry would even come lose to stopping that? Nope, I knew it was a goal.

  27. aaronjaiden

    *depressed honk noises*

    ​

    Fire Mike Sullivan

  28. Welshgreen5792

    A big 0 in points for the 4th line in *checks notes* nine games now. This isn’t about them though. This is about the coaching staff who refuses to bench Carter for someone with a fucking pulse.

    Fire Sullivan and all these bums. It was time last offseason.
