It wasn’t so much that the pens calls were bad (except the one), but that they also were letting Detroit get away with murder, I counted like 6 missed calls on Detroit in the first two periods, while pens were getting called on absolutely everything
Definitely a wild one, Dan, but they stayed with it, grinding it out, and got the W. I agree that the officiating played a big role in this one. Nice to see the Tanger get the winning goal in OT for his 1200th game. Let's keep it going now. Safe travels tomorrow. . . Happy New Year and Cheers!! 💕🎈⭐✨🎉💕🏒🐧
The refereeing was terribly biased in favour of Detroit. There was highsticking, holds and all sorts of fouls that Detroit got away with. And all the Letang haters can get stuffed now.
Most calls against the Pens I'll accept even if some were soft. But refs were blind to a bunch DET fouls. Pens keep getting treated like this by the refs and it drives me nuts.
I thought mcgroarty looked rough. Kindel looked out of sinc and frankly, I see a problem. He gets pushed off the puck way too easily. Definitely needs to bulk up
NHL refs are complete scumbags. The Penguins at this point should do something drastic. Have management call it out and call it out actively. The team should have their video staff put together a highlight reel of the awful officiating and bring out the stats to back it up. Name referees by name, call for them to lose their jobs. Doing nothing and just accepting it obviously isn't working.
the pens simply cannot hold ANY lead ! 2 to 0 go to get a snack come back its 2 to 2 ! the metro is really crap this season and if the pens just play average hockey they will make the playoffs easily !

Nice to finally see another OT win

The league wants Sid out of Pittsburgh. I swear it.
Nice win.
Letang with the OT GWG in his 1,200th game.

Can we please stop downplaying the historically awful officiating in the nhl like it's a freaking badge of honor to overcome???

A win is a win, is a win. 2pts 😆
Surprised you didn’t mention the successfully challenged offside goal. Felt 100% that was the turning point of the game for the pens
So many penalties, so good to win 🏆

Few weird bounces, two points is two points
At least they are unbeaten this year 😂😂😂
Sometimes you get lucky and come back for a W. I'll take it!
Chich was a steal
