C’était vraiment difficile à regarder



Jetons un coup d’œil aux Penguins de Pittsburgh contre le Lightning de Tampa Bay, qui ont vu les Penguins accéder à la place de wildcard alors que Crosby a inscrit son 40e but de la saison.

  1. This is really rare to see. I don’t think we give linesmen enough credit for getting out of the way of the play enough.
    We’re probably a few years away from seeing an award for officiating, just because of hard the game is to call.

  2. We need to stop throwing around the “they arnt mentally strong” bs. It’s just disingenuous criticism. Shit happens teams give up goals it’s so random, what matters is the aggregate and in the aggregate they are CLEARLY a strong team they literally climbed to a wild card slot when their own GM wrote them off. Please stop with this “mentally strong” garbage, all NHL players are mentally strong that’s how they got to the NHL in the first place. Find a better form of criticism.

  3. I’m a Sharks fan, but watching this game reminded me of when the Sharks beat the Blues in 2016 and I was waiting for the winner of the Tampa vs Pittsburgh series the next day, in Pittsburgh too, like today. I so badly wanted Tampa to win it so we’d have home ice advantage by one point lol, but nope. This game felt like that with all the vets scoring like they were 10 years younger, the atmosphere in the building, etc. That’s rare for a regular season game.

  4. The Pittsburgh first rounder belongs to San Jose, but is top 10 protected (at which point they can give the 2025 pick away instead). My biggest fear as a Pens fan is that they play themselves into the 11th spot in the lottery, hit on the 3% chance at the first overall, and are forced to give it up to San Jose

  5. Hope he’s better soon. It’s a rough business and it sucks when it happens to officials who aren’t involved in the play

  6. We boo the refs all the time, but goddamn, its a very dangerous job to do. You have to consider these refs have to keep track of a rubber puck that flies around the rink, 10 players (and 2 goalies) going around trying to check and get the puck, the number of players on the ice, penalties, icing, offsides, and they have to do this all while trying to remember positions and getting out of the way in such a fast-paced game.

    I hope that ref is ok, and that nothing serious comes out of it. May he have a speedy recovery.

  7. When comparing Sid to The Great One , we must also see the growth in a healthy lifestyle, recovery knowledge and other scientific insight and practical technology. Plus how the games rules are different

  8. Detroit in the wild card (the only way they can make it with the stacked and packed Atlantic this year), and Pittsburgh in 3rd in the Metro? As a Wings Fan, I'm here for it. And if somehow DET makes it that far, and somehow come up against the Pens in a later round, I would be marginally less sad if Detroit lost then, because I would be rooting the Pens the whole way. I'd Love to see Sid raise the Cup one more time.

  9. Cutting across the middle without paying attention to surroundings applies to refs too. That's a bummer. Hope he's not too banged up.

  10. Guy's been fixing games against Anaheim for decades. Hope he never refs again. Good riddance dirtbag.

  11. If the Pens make it into the playoffs, theyll just lose in the first round like they have for the last 4 seasons.
    Ni matter how good they are in the regular season, they outright refuse to win in the playoffs.
    The last time they made it past round 1 was in 2017. And they only made it to the 2nd round that year.
    But the 2020bplayoffs were easily the most embarrassing
    The Pens were atop the East.
    All the commentators and analysts thought the Pens would make it at least to the Conference finals.
    They got eviscerated by the Islands in Round 1.
    They lost 4-2.

  12. Why don't the referees have a warning on the helmet if someone approaches like in the indy races, the skater on the left?

  13. Regardless of what happens this year. Hear me out. Trade Jarry. Bring up Blomquist as a backup. Try to resign Jake- if not go for young draft picks and/ or another skilled player with the money freed up from Jarry contract. Also – Carter is off the books next year as well.
