Still cant believe Lunqvist's penalty was only 2 minutes. No matter what its the refs call when to stop play. This sets an awful precedent....player is on a breakaway, just turn around and knock the net off....better off killing a 2 min penalty.

Also, where are all the Rags fans on this board now??

Breakaway is an auto goal I believe, Didn't an AHLer do that?

All depends on the level of scoring chance in the refs opinion I think

Yeh and 1 of those 4 losses was a 6-2 drubbing at the hands of the Pens! They made some nice additions at the deadline as well (Pirri and McGinn)

Just watched Scuds stink up the defensive zone. Screened Quick when the shooter wasn't even to the top of the circle yet. Subban scores.

Did you also see Subban totally lose the puck, fall down, and let the Kings player walk right in and score?

Great to see the team get the win.

Also great to see Lundqvist drop his reputation down another step. Guy is starting to really show he is just a (frank)ing wanker (although still goes ok in goal ). Rags are self destructing this season, play well then poop themselves becoming an inconsistent mess - especially the coach. On the other hand it appears that the Pens are starting to play some real solid hockey - not winning enough as yet but heading in the right direction at the right time of year.

Well I guess we'll find out how precious Lundqvist is next week when we get to do it all again!

Oh, & just 1 more thing...............................

Good to see Hank get rattled and lose his cool. It's usually one of our stars when we play them. Geno looks like himself and it's good to see kessel get on the board even if it was an empty net

good game boys your team played really well 2 pp goals killed us we got frustrated and you deviled us in the third. It must be nice to see your two superstars score in the same game against us for the first time in seven years. To bad for you that all you will be doing is replaying that on your phone in the bar at the golf course cause you won't be making the playoffs so enjoy!

Pretty sure Bobby boy, that your goalie has given us some footage that will be played until it cannot be played again - then, you know what? It will be played again!

Hang on I forgot! It will have to be shared with your coach after crying & complaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaining about Simmonds - why did Simmonds punch Ol glass jaw again? Oh that's right he cheap shotted him with a cross check to the 'back' of the head. Call the waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaambulance the Rags are playing!

Like true professionals we are already looking to the next game!

They say you're only as good as your last game, but you can't live in the past or you will be left behind!

I bet you wish you had him! AV will win you nothing except those president whatchy mcCallits???

I'm actually wondering what if anything Sully learnt from your old coach Torts??

Edit: I believe AV is pretty big on Glass? Saw you guys getting hard ons for Megna early on & where is Gibbons? Hasn't he played a few for you as well? So, not sure wh is better off - us with Sully who is going very well, or you guys with the aforementioned players? We'll keep Sully thanks.

Same as you must feel having an ex Penguin player do the same for you as a coach. He already helped you hang your BANNAH!!!!

Mate I'm in Australia & have never met him!

He is a coach, & so far is doing a pretty good job - granted he's got some of the best players in the world to work with, but still going well.

What's AV done in coaching milestones & how long has he been coaching? Got to the dance twice with very good teams & beaten both times by the better coach! What could have been against the Kings...........so close, yet so far away!

In regards to our Schultz debate last evening, Yohe had something really interesting to say.

So Schultz is essentially insurance this season. He'll get spot games down the stretch, but he'll be our 8D once the playoffs start. That said, the FO doesn't see the 3rd they gave up for him as peanuts and acquired him for a reason. They have faith that Gonchar can improve his game and the Pens can sign him to a team friendly contract. If anyone can get through to Justin Schultz, I guess it's Gonchar. I don't have too much faith, but this is probably the best scenario Schultz could find himself in. Sit out the remainder of the season and collect yourself and learn under one of the game's best. Regain your confidence and come out swingin next year

But what about that qualifying offer? Admittedly, I'm not well-versed on that matter. Does it have to be at least 3.9 mill? if it does, can it be spread over years?

Best players in the world? Cmon mate maybe in the reg season but come playoffs the two of them are basically no shows you keep talking about your cup in 2009 that's all you got with "some of the best players in the world" it must take a while for mediocrity to reach Australia. Like 7 years.

That's what OP said, but we gave Bennett a pay cut this past summer so I'm not sure that's right. Anyways, if the minimum is 3.9 AAV, I take a hard pass
