Fire sully
The truth.
Pens are old, sully has reached his expiration.
Don’t expect playoffs this season 😂😂
The defensemen just dont seem committed to doing ANYTHING in front of their own net. Not even trying to get a stick on the opponents stick. Its like their all just floating in some hazy dream totally unaware of whats going on in front of their poor goaltender.
O'Connor, Crosby, Rust: -2.
DK has a sick feeling in his tummy
Defense sucks and has sucked for several years. What is the tech behind good defense play?! Why can other teams do it? If the players aren’t good enough it falls on Dubas. If the coaching is bad it falls on Sully. Either way, this team is in trouble and needs a serious rethink about many things. We are tired of the promises and disappointments!
Things don’t seem to be changing. It’s finally time for Sullivan to be replaced and see what happens.
A bad team with a bunch of bad contracts with a few good/great players mixed in.
This team isn't commented..
Trade Karlson. You can get something for him.
I mean , what GM wouldn’t sit back and look last seasons failures and say “ a pinch of Grzelyck should fix all this” then take the east of the summer off……
It’s been long overdue to replace Mike Sullivan!
Is Sullivan's system outdated? Maybe the team is too old and slow for it? Now, with that being said, maybe it is time for a boring defense 1st style.
I have stated this time and time again, goaltending isn't the issue her e (and yes, jarry has played terrible). Defense is spare parts 100% , the doubling/tripling up and flooding one side with four players…. killing this team. Hockey IQ is apparently not a prerequisite to get on the squad. Honestly, time to part ways with sully and see what someone else can do with the team idk.
DK, 100 percent correct. The forwards and defenseman are not playing well in their own end and it's costing them games. I like a lot of the things they did yesterday in the offensive zone, and I thought they deserved better than the result they got. However, when you can't defend you're going to lose 9 times out of 10.
I don't care if the Penguins had a prime Martin Brodeur or Patrick Roy, if they don't start playing well in your own end, you'll get results like this on a nightly basis.
The wingers love trying to poke the puck out instead of taking a hit and making a play
If that's true, criticize Sid before every game DK 😂
Sullivan needs to gooooo
Idk how many more years I have to keep saying Sullivan's "scheme" or whatever you want to call it is cooked
They might as well try a new coach and new system. But Letang and Karlsson have been dreadful through seven games, and if they are going to continue to play this bad, the rest doesn't matter.
maybe Sully IS the problem….idk. They're just not complete. They have trouble with every team that isn't the Crapitals or the Cryers or CBJ
