What's up with the Pens?

[laz2447]

That whole team played like ass in the 2nd period, which is what lost the game. It's bad enough this team is inconsistant from game to game, now it's period to period.........PATHETIC!!!!

that just about sums it up for me too! last nights effort for me was not the effort i expected from a team that had played so much better over the last handfull of games...and to know your going into the all-star break and not be able to put together a consistant effort aside from the usual guys who play their ass off night in and night out?

wtf...i still cant figure out how malkin and sid are still 1,2 in scoring...lol

i keep telling myself they have missed a ton of games combined with everyone being down with injuries, yet somehow i still get very frustrated...but when you compare it to the rangers who i think have a total of 10 games missed between all their players this season... that is like comparing apples to oranges...so i do tend to cut them alittle slack alot of the time...

which leads me to my favorite complaint right now...remember all that "wait till whitney comes back" talk...please...to me he looks lost with the puck, out of position a good bit on defense, and makes some terrible decisions with the puck when coming out of his own zone...i think i counted 3 times he turned the puck over and gave it right to one the 'canes last night...another frustrating thing to watch over and over again...

and i really wish they would stop making that one extra pass which leads to a turnover and no shot on goal...put the puck on net and get some sloppy, scrappy goals in 5 on 5 or the power play!

i hope that they get their act together and play some quality hockey on a consistant basis, i guess i'll continue to watch and do this every game!

Lets Go Pens!
