Thanks Dan. . . I was pretty disgusted too. . . I knew if we went to a SO, we would most likely be doomed. Don't know what the issue is with SO's, but they just simply don't win – and haven't for a very long time. . . I was pleased with the overall play tonight, but they just, for some unknown reason, cannot seem to pull out the wins. . . Love your analysis, Dan. . . Have a great night and be safe going home. . .
I don't think we outplayed them. Anaheim plays fast and loose. We should've been the adult in the room calming things down on the ice. We failed at that, played their game, and lost. Period. We kept trying to stab at a bouncing puck and make hero plays. Soft plays. Soft passes. Got sloppy and they jumped at everything they could and we followed suit. Muse has to sit that team down and tell them we have to dictate the pace even when the opportunities are there. Cause when we get dragged into their game, we lose. EVERYTIME
What happened with Koivunen on the shootout is that he did what he always does in AHL shootouts or breakaways: he went for the 5 hole, but in this case, he got completely shut down because it was so easy to read. Got to give Husso credit tho, he jumped on it.
I remember 10 or more years ago when Kris Letang would be put in a situation like he was in the final seconds tonight he would flatten opponents,,, now he's just stuck on this waving the stick BS
i see the problem with the shootouts as the continuation of the no-finishing issue. throughout the regulation whoever shot on the net was either aiming at the goalie's chest or just missed the goal completely… should the pens fire their skills coach and get a new one?
Dan, please explain why Broz isn't called up to replace Lizotte…instead its Heinen…don't understand this one bit…makes no sense… The Captain, terrible defense on the 2nd goal, and terrible in the shootout…Ryan Shea…A++..what a game he had…"Kid line" was also great again…the writing is on the wall, this team continues to need an injection of youth
I get the criticism and believe me I was dumbfounded. However the pens are playing very well and absolutely are a playoff caliber team. Comparing this team to the last 3 years it is not even close. It has been overall good hockey. Obviously everyone wants the points but hockey is a strange game and the overall outlook is one that is playoff caliber and to be honest winning series playoff calibe. In my opinion these experiences good and bad throughout a year make a playoff caliber team tough to beat. So although disappointed I’m extremely excited about where this team can go. Lots left to do but I believe this team will be in the playoffs and have the chance to do some damage. Let’s go pens!!!
There would be no overtime or a shootout if it wasn't for what EK65 done the Pens would have won so tell it like it's EK65 was the reason why they lost
The pens need to lean into losing. Last night was an absolute embarrassment! What an abysmal performance!
You let them tie it with .01 seconds left in the third period! They lose in a OT/SO again! 0-5 now! Burn this fucker to the ground! FYI SHITLOVS SUCKS ASS!!! Leave him in and keep losing!
Dan, I love your Gonzo style reporting. Makes it feel fresh and raw in the heat of the moment. Always posting up in the back alley of the arena or a dark light corner of a closed restaurant or holed up in a dimly lit hotel room on the wrong side of town. Very refreshing and fun man. The F it, we do it live mentality! Haha Appreciate the work you put into it! The
The two biggest mistakes the Penguins have made. 1. Not protecting Fleury. 2. Signing Karlsson. Would have at least 1 more cup if not 2 by now and definitely not the cellar dwellers we have been.

Everytime we go to a shoot out I'm thinking,"Oh crap."

After the last few seasons, and what this season has devolved into, I had no doubt they would lose the lead.

As much as the kids line dominates possession they might be better off to spread that through the lineup unless they start converting as a group.
how can this be 😮
This was the “Response” to what happened against Dallas!
UNFORGIVABLE!!!
Always a nobody that “dOeSnT waNNa bE on cAmEra”🙄🙄
4:47
Dan dropping shootout truth bombs. 1-6 and 0-5.
Karlsson and Letang have to be the worst veteran defenseman combination in the league. Gotta get rid of them!

You forgot to mention Bryan Rust got walked too

2:25 actually, EK scored
Go hire T.J Oshie as a coach just to teach them on shootouts.

Lots of blown leads this year

One GD sec. Gesh
0.001, and the Ducks tie it up after an "own goal," can't make it up 🙁
Silovs is becoming unplayable
I feel like that's how you should sign off everytime, because it seems like a bit of a theme. "From the wrong spot…. I'm Dan Kingerski"

I’d like to know how many minutes in the last 2 games that the pens had the lead and mustered up a whole 0 w’s
Future ad campaign: the Pittsburgh Penguins, we blow more leads than a hooker with a Rolodex.

The Penguins played a hell of a game but that finish was absolutely pathetic.
I guess, the optimist in me would say: Well, we got two out of Tampa and we had no business winning that game.
Subsequently, we held the pace against Dallas AND Anaheim YET only earned 2 total points.
It's absolutely pathetic how we play 58 minutes and the last two always kill us.
Pathetic, that's the word.
The penguins win some shootouts they're in first in the division.

Yea we have to do better
just unbelievable you can’t make it up anymore
friggin Karlsson
