here belsky goes with the call poulin up lol, were 3 years over due for a coaching change, the players play the coach's game and if the coach doesnt adapt to the skills available to him instead of trying to force the same game plan as the back to back years nothing is going to change. every decent player that comes to pittsburgh declines in production and every player to leave their production goes up so what is the real problem with this team?
Hey Horwat! Reese’s mug eh? Are pb cups your #1 candy or is it the pieces?
Bench letang
Im glad sully is giving the players a short leash. I think they need to feel the pressure. I just hope sullys leash is short as well. This team has a good collection of players, but they need to play together in a system that is defense first or all three goalies will be damaged goods by the end of the season.
I would start the goalie who has had the most rest during the Western swing against the Wild.
The first game back is tough on any eastern club due to jet lag.
They play as Don Cherry would say…dopey!
Will the scratches go for the entire team or is it just a select few Sully doesn't like ? Nobody cares until Sid gets scratched and then the whining and tears will start . And the excuses . I don't see Sid stepping up above what he usually does . Lots of help going out getting all those Forwards huh ? Bench Letang . Nobody should be above getting benched .
Sullivan's job on the line? Nah. He's going to be tenured through the years of mediocrity until they're able to have more turnover and replace a lot of the lineup with younger players. No way he gets fired before coaching in the Olympics as well.
please bring back the old intro song
I don't feel like sending Jarry down to the minors is an option because of re-entry waivers. I don't see why carrying 3 is not viable, carrying 1 extra F, 1 extra D, and 1 extra G.
