Brain dead play Petry
- Thorny87


So bad there... He knew it too.. Could see it on his face on the bench.

It's all too nonchalant looking for such an important game... So far

What a disaster he's become. I mean, he's almost as washed as Carter.
- madmike71


Nah.. Not even close... Has more points as a defenseman than Carter in like 20 less games haha. He's had long stretches of great play this season, Carter has not.

Pens best pairing this season by a considerable amount has been Petts-Petry

Devils making the pens look old. Like a legends team lacing it up for charity

Decimated blue line doesn't help either... Theres a ripple effect on the whole back end to all areas of the ice with three starters out.

Well it’s really just Carters fault.

I don’t think they really add a whole lot.

Does anyone want to see us make the playoffs at this point? I accepted we weren’t good awhile ago. But somehow our team has kept us in the hunt just to keep disappointing us. What better for our future? Playoffs or a just falling in the standings?

Would be interesting to see how bad a 4 game series vs Boston or jersey can be

That would require heart and players to care…

It cant be overstated enough how bad Hextall made this team from last year to this year. Just remarkably terrible asset management and player evaluation. But beyond that, how bad he's made this team during his tenure.

Lemieux deciding to hire Hextall is probably one of the only misses that guy has had related to Pittsburgh since he came here in 1984.

-Granlund
-Carter
-Petry

All 3 under contract next year and eating up about $14M. Marino and McCann, not on this team anymore, and eating up about $9M. Remarkable.

Haha. You have to feel bad for Carter and Archibald. Had they know. That this “core” was so cooked they probably would have signed elsewhere.

Bringing back the same goalie tandem, giving Desmith a raise, then doing nothing at the deadline… that has been glaring issue #1. Even when we play well, the goalie blows it.

Yep. He's basically made one good move with Rakell. Nearly everything else has been a f'n disaster.

At this point, I'm not sure I want them making the playoffs. Pretty good chance they'll get humiliated.
