Finally the pens are on 🔥
I peed my pants when Rusty got that 2nd !
usually I’m more sophisticated than that when I post here … but nope that’s it
I am drunk as hell to kickoff my Veteran's Day 3 day weekend. And it's all the Pen's fault. Good stuff, fellas
The train kept a rollin’ all night long! You forgot to mention the most important and satisfying thing about this road trip . . . We launched ourselves past Philthadelphia in the standings!
I am thrilled Rusty is back to his norm and possibly even better than ever! EK65 is becoming more and more of a blessing to this team and I’m loving it! Just get Rakell going and who knows what this season may bring in the end!
I stayed up for it and was rewarded!
"Mr. Mustache" LOL
Rusty is looking like a general store clerk from the old west these days haha
My daughter's and I were there at the game. After that shorty goal, the Pens turned up the heater. The 3rd period showed it.
I was in attendance with my fiancé again lol. We really are starting to figure out how to play with the makeup of this team. All 3 games were finding different ways to win. One blowout, one shutout and one where we were outshot almost 2:1 😊
I dont know but that mustache aint bad!!! Way to roll Rusty!!!!
What an ending. To quote our buddy Mike Lange, “You’d have to be here to believe it”
DOC is a bum….he's not finishing off long passes in the real games….guy has almost no skill (aside from speed)
I remember a time where Bryan Rust and Conor Sheary were considered interchangeable, if not Sheary being the player with the greater upside. How times change.
The intro theme has become an integral part of my mornings lol. Hope everyone is doing well! 3 for 3 Cali trip yeeeeeee!
Tuesday in Columbus will be my first Pens game in way too long! I was able to make my best friend a Pens fan. It'll be his first Pens game. We're hoping for a good Pens game and I'm a Rust fan, so I'm hoping to see him do work! Go Pens!
Thank you DK for the job you do my comment has to do with a Erik Karlsson‘s play at the point whenever he tried to receive a bad bouncing puck pass that hopped over his stick. I’m not sure I’ve seen many penguins players go from a dead stop to 100% defensive recovery as good as he did on that play. so massive respect needs to be given. my experience with the Penguins they would’ve given up a goal in that situation, and then the other thing I Gotta say goaltending was pretty much phenomenal against that team. Way to go guys leaving the west coast with the broom in hand🐧🏒 🧹
It's such a pleasure to watch EK start to gel with the team. Another side effect IMO is Letangs play so far. He looks so much more effective so far compared to last year. Great freaking road trip!! Lgp
Fell asleep mid-way through the first. A 10:30 game is ridiculous. Puck dropped at 10:40? This is why the NHL is a second rate league. You would never see an NFL game starting that late regardless of time zone. 9:00 should be the latest for a west coast game with a eastern team opponent. There's few enough of these inter-coastal games that they can afford a few early starts to maximize viewership. Rust looks good. Still would like to see him swap lines with Rakell to get him going temporarily with a couple goals.
Side note: How long before the Oilers fire their HC? Oilers 2-9 and McDavid goalless in his last 7? He's in his 9th season. Will he be the best to never win a championship, supplanting the likes of Marcel Dionne and Jarome Iginla?
Well……GO PENS!!!!
Rakell needs to be put with Sid and Jake. Put Rust with Malkin and Smith.
Ashes to ashes .. dust to dust … Let's Go Penguins .. we got Rust!!!
