  1. Penguins need to clean house of all coaches and bring in Gerard Gallant as the HC. Then find two other coaches who can work on the D core and PP. After that bring in guys who are bigger, stronger and faster! This team is too weak, soft and too damn old and will remain a target until the Penguins pull their head out of their ass and do something about it. #DumbassDubas

  2. I do agree in NOT bringing in a friend of Sullys. Sully absolutely needs to be put on notice in no uncertain terms. Win or your done here! Thanks Nick👍🏻

  3. Pinching is fine and recommended to disrupt clean passing, but the team pinching needs to support the pinch by filling in that space. The much heralded Pittsburgh forecheck doesn't allow for this. Consensus seems to be that the forecheck is the driving feature of the system overall, so you can't recognize that pinches are a problem, ask for assistant coach X to adjust it, but then immediately excuse Letang and Karlsson, 1/3 of the position players and who likely will be on the ice 60%+ of the time, from the adjustment.

  4. Sully doesnt seem like hes adapted his coaching style to an aging team. Still a loaded squad but losing Jake hurt, got dick back for him n the big 3 core Pens are 7-8 years older than their last cup hoisting

    Hell, im not a coach so i dont really know but i do see what all of us see on the ice
