After a two-day break in the schedule, the Pittsburgh Penguins returned to the ice to take on the visiting Edmonton Oilers. Kris Letang struck first, early into the opening period with his 6th goal of the season to put the Penguins up 1-0. After a handful of costly penalties, Edmonton would answer back with two goals of their own to take the lead at the end of the 1st. The second period of play wasn’t kind to Pittsburgh as the Oilers netted home four more goals to jump out to a commanding 6-1 lead. Letang would go on to score his 2nd goal of the game late in the third but the Penguins would fall to the Oilers by a score of 7-2.

As I said time and time I love my pens but this team would not survive a best of 7 they been giving up way too many goals lately. The depth is weak bottom six the top six is only ones that’s score there old aging I say sell at the deadline as been saying teddy zucker Danton josh dumo and jarry trade and try moved carter kappen get something may not be much better than nothing don’t trade first round pick any picks pjo Samuel and other young assets I am forever grateful for everything memories 3 cups 4 cup finals 5 eastern conference finals back to back runs winter classic had new one this year and stadium series I am forever happy and greatful but this not a playoffs team and fans yinzers need to realize it will be werid no playoffs first time as a pen fan since 08 season but I am forever grateful for everything we had to miss the playoffs again sometime it had to happen again fans need to realize and be grateful we had a good run after tonight it’s time to rebuild and sell build the next era
Welp the run was great
Bad in every aspect of the game….scoring…defense…goaltending…& yet Hextall stands like a dummy & does nothing.
Let’s go oilers! Mcdavid always gets up for Crosby
If only the Penguins hadn't had 2 goals taken away, they could have lost by 3, aka the number of shots on goal they had 23 minutes in.
great game guys lol
but seriously FIRE SULLY FIRE SULLY
You should prob trade Malkin for someone young because our team is very old
The old saying goes, can't win when the goalies can't stop a beach ball.
I mean McNasty and "Put her in" Drai came to play. Still, the penguins look slow and out of place. Not a good place to be right now.
Still don't want to make any moves eh hextall? Start with dumo……
Hextall needs to be fired he was supposed to build a team around the core and I would hardly call this current roster of players a team
Lost again 🙁
They got crushed
i feel for the people involved. really. but the chemistry is gone. "maybe quit making them tape the sticks with rainbow colors!!. i am from mn, and a friend of mine suggested watching the pens when Crosby came. watched them all these years. do not forget, it takes years, mostly, to win cup. that said, fans pay to HOPE. i was thinking the defense moves made off season would make them stronger. but here is the small item. team speed is not what it was. i would perhaps say change Sullivan, but NHL only hires fired Canadain coaches (kidding, kind of). Sullivan actually was great move outside the norm,but he is growing old Look to next year and beyond, this year toast. NO ONE FEARS PENS!
We need better defenders
Get Jeff carter and Bryan dumonlin out !!!!!!!!
I can't believe that Hextall still has a job.
He was fired from Philly for this very reason and obviously hasn't learned.
Wow. I am so suprised by this team. The moment I heard we signed Letang and Malkin over trying to get some younger talent in, I knew we were heavy favorites for the cup. All sarcasm aside, is anyone surprised by this? I am not. Not even mad. I knew this was gonna happen. Writings been on the wall for the past 2 years with Letang and Malkin. Should have tried them while they still had value. Lucky to get a hockey puck for them both now. As a lifelong fan, absolutely disgraceful. Horrible Management.
How the heck am I supposed to like this video? What was that all about @2:11 for starters? 🙄 Pens got a complete lube job today. 😢
This was painful. Aweful. Pens got destroyed.
?????
How many times does Jarry have to fail at pretending to be Martin Brodeur before he stops?
Hextall is a superstar!
💔🐧
FIRE HEXTALL!
Hahaha nice click bait “Letang scores twice” forget to mention I dunno McJesus clowns Pens, Oilers score touchdown, fans chant for executive dismissal etc.
Good grief…Glanced at the synopsis and am going to give this one a miss. Appalling.
Pfffft….. Just like watching the Pirates or Steelers, the city of chokers now.
When you trade away all your 1st round draft picks away for rentals at the trade deadline for 10 plus years this is what you get..yes they won cups but its time to pay the piper..face it…at least hextall has not done the same like the riverboat gambler rutherford…
5:36 Miguel Camino: Why? Whyyyy?
How humiliating
Good for Kris. The rest was disgusting. Simply disgusting.
They will be bad for years. Too many old guys with years left on their contracts. Too many no trade clauses. Few players anyone would want.
