J’ai fait ces deux images en une seule vidéo, car cela rend le tout plus impressionnant en le regardant sous cet angle. Ils ont la chance d’en gagner une autre cette saison à venir et leur noyau est toujours aussi effrayant.

If it werent for injuries Malkin would have 90 plus point seasons almost every year
Pittsburgh fans can be thankful about acquiring Phil Kessel from Toronto in the summer of 2015. Not saying the Penguins were not a cup contender team prior to the Kessel trade, however, adding Phil made them purely unstoppable within the league. Crosby, Malkin and Kessel with the development of Matt Murray sure has all the elements of a three-peat again in 2018.
Thanks!!!
Let's go Pens for a Three Peat and than a Four Peat and maybe a five peat. Let's go Pens
Could they Pens move Kessel back to the third line where he was in the 2015-2016 season? Malkin will be fine with whoever, Crosby is always great with whoever, so why not move Kessel back to the third line where he could bring up whoever is with him?
It almost seems like two different teams won these Cups. The 2016 team was dominant throughout the entire playoffs, consistently outplaying and outshooting opponents, and were not blown out even once. They deserved it in 2016.
The 2017 team, however, is another story. I don't think I've ever seen a less deserving team win the Cup. They got off to atrocious starts in the first 3 games against Columbus, yet somehow won all three of them. The Washington series might have been the worst ever performance by a team that won a series. Game in and game out, Washington dominated the pace and clearly were the superior team, yet somehow Pittsburgh kept winning. The series that theoretically should have been the easiest, Ottawa, was probably the hardest. And I'm not going to get into the Cup Finals, because I'll just complain about how poor the officiating was, not worth it.
Crosby McDavid Toews
I don´t care what anyone says, but Malkin is just as good as Crosby. The only advantage Crosby has is international gold, nothing else. And i hate the fact that Malkin gets overshadowed by him every single season.
My favorite 😀
Penguins fans remind me a lot of Yankees and cowboys fan. All just a bunch of pricks 🤷🏻♂️
No no dynasty I'm tired of Crosby hogging the cup give guys like mcdavid ovechkin Matthews And karlsson a chance to shine
Just when I thought "What one video?" you go and TOTALLY REDEEM YOURSELF.
Scary thing is that they didn't need Letang in the post season…
I would love to see the 2016 Pens vs the 1995 Devils. Unstoppable Force vs an immovable object.
How did Pittsburgh play Nashville early in the playoffs in 2016 and 2017 in the Stanley cup? Did they switch conferences?
Zac aston reese isn't a center. The pens have 2 centers who are amazing but have injury issues and then NOTHING behind them. When one of the two inevitably go down the pens are going to have carter fucking rowney on the second line. The lack of center depth is going to cripple the pens and keep Malking from moving to the wing where he belongs. The pens are going to lose a TON of faceoffs because crosby is the only man on the team thats any good at em. It's the achilles heal for a team that is otherwise spectacular. Losing cullen hurts because he could play center ANYWHERE 4th line, power play, pk, filling in top 2 duties etc. Bonino was a typical third line center and did well at it but Dad was the stop gap, the duck tape. Ffs, he played more than any other forward in the final. The pens just don't have that anymore and the league knows it so everyone with a center on the block is being a deuche and asking for the moon because they can and Rutherford is either going to pony up or have 2 AHL players playing center because they have NOTHING.
"You have the most talented top two centers in the NHL". Yup. And both have injury histories
The 2016 were the 3rd team to win the Cup after starting three different goalies in the playoffs, the other two the 1937 Red Wings and 1938 Blackhawks
Coaching and GM crucial to this formula as well.
That guts and determination all comes back to the guy who wears the C, Sidney Crosby. He leads by example, team needs a spark or a win or a big goal, look who is on the ice. Crosby is right there in the thick of it. As long as Crosby is healthy and in the playoffs, I will not bet against him. Biggest competitor this league has, and dare I say, may ever see. Think of all the injuries hes gone through, and all the beatings hes taken over the years, when many people were calling him done (ahem Tim and Sid), he goes out and wins back to back Stanley Cups, Conn Smythes, and World cup/MVP. This team has a chance at a 3-peat, and with some new blood in the lineup, I think they can get it done. That core is one of the best the NHL has ever seen, and to say otherwise is just downright stupid!
Bout time 🙌🏼🙌🏼 #backtoback
What's gonna help Pittsburgh going forward is the key players missing time in the past seasons. Malkin consistently misses 20 games a year it seems, Letang should be fully heathy & have a chip on his shoulder, Murray doesn't play as much as other elite goaltenders, let's face it Crosby is a physical specimen, & like you said they have a lot of young guys in the lineup yhat fan endure a lot of games bc of there youth. Pittsburgh will be fine as long as they have Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, & Matt Murray in net.
Who do you think Pens will acquire with remaining $3.28M? Can you please make a short video about their options? Thanks!
Marc-Andre Murray. Matt fleury
The Dynasty is over get it together pens fans lmao
What is your thoughts specifically on Guentzels playoff run? 13 games and 21 points…factor fatigue into it and if he played all 25 he could have had 35 points in the playoffs!
😎
I love ya Hockey Guy, but Murray did not have a 'pedestrian' regular season. He was 32-10-4 with a .923. In fact, his whole body of work since coming into the league is outstanding. Consistent as hell.
Sorry just had to get that out there lol. I'm a Pens lifer fan living in PoCo and adore your channel 🙂 Doing extensive previews of all 31 teams was so cool. I learned a lot about teams I don't see often. It's hard to find quality content like that, especially with how rushed and politically correct analysts have to be on TV. Perhaps we'll grab a beer in June watching the Pens on the cusp of greatness! Haha take care.
I feel ripped off, we only get one video for both cups. At least we will get another one next Year.
Watching the 2016 Pens: "Weeee!"
Watching the 2017 Zombie Pens: "OMG how are they still going?"
Lets get THG to 20k subs!
Got really sad when the Sharks lost in the 2016 finals, but the Penguins were so much faster, for me that's what won them the series, the speed.
Shannon, you should love the Penguins. If for no other reason than we gave you Markus Naslund for Alex Stojanov.
I still don't think they had a great defense compared to most cup champions, particularly for this cup without Letang. They have a bit of a window where their biggest threats are in a bit of disarray, with teams like the Hawks reeling from cap challenges and other situations like that. They've been able to press their superior forward core and great goaltending.
Finally
Are you sure it's not "Revisiting the 1016 and 1017 Penguins"?
You guessed it. The Fucking Penguins!
2017/18 Gotta see it: Someone other than Crosby wins the Conn Smythe??? Watch as Jake Guentzel wins Conn Smythe
This was the Stanley cup final both of them i didn't watch i didn't care 2016 mad about the tampa series and the series San Jose had with la
Smartest Hockey mind around
The 2015 Hawks, 2016, 2017 penguins are the most uninteresting cup winners. None of their runs are memorable.
2014 Kings was the last great run. Hopefully 2018 will be better
Oh Matt Murray… haha
i just found this a few years late! Given that there have been exactly three back-to-back Cup champs since 1988 makes this Pens team all the more impressive. Truth is, I wasn't all that disappointed in the 2018 playoff loss to the Caps because (1) the Pens beat them 2 out of 3, and (2) the Caps had a team good enough to win all three of those years, but did not.
Sometimes, fans of other NHL teams are the biggest crybabies. Whining about officiating, whining about Crosby whining, whining about Bettman favoring the Penguins, whining about Penguins fans, blah, blah, blah.
Shannon – you pointed out in one of your videos how you pulled for Washington to beat the Pens in successive years. Being on the West Coast of North America, perhaps you aren't aware of how the Pens-Caps rivalry developed. In the early 1908s, the steel industry that Western Pennsylvania was known for collapsed. Not only were numerous steel mills shut down, but some major corporate headquarters left town due to the merger mania of that time, like Gulf Oil. Lots of young adults left Western Pennsylvania and ended up in the DC area, 4 to 5 hours away. The good Caps teams of the mid 80s – and afterwards – did not sell out, so when Mario & Co. came to town there were a few thousand Pens fans in the Cap Center. The one event that fired up the rivalry was in early 1987 when Bobby Gould knocked out Mario with a right hook in Landover. For several years after that, the Pens usually controlled the season series and knocked the Caps out of the playoffs four times between 1991 and 1996. Games in the Capital Centre were an event, as the displaced Pittsburghers were usually joined by thousands who made the four hour one way drive to cheer on the Pens. Back then the DC sports media shoved the NFL Redskins down everyone's throats, and as the Steelers rarely played the Redskins, watching the Pens beat the Caps was a kind of Schadenfrude. I know – I lived in the DC area for five years and I returned to Pittsburgh in 1995.
As for Sid vs. Ovie – they have met four times in the playoffs. Sid's side has won three times and won three Cups. Once each for Ovie. Says it all.
