Penquins

[Bolt Fore]

We got off to a great start last time we faced the Pens but they came on strong at the end of the game.
This time its in their building.

Bishop back in. Won his last two since coming back.

Also Garrison is back tonight and Gudas is questionable.

Pens take this game 4-2 is my prediction. My reason, they scored too many against Buffalo. They'll have to wait a game or 2 to replenish the goal scoring hunger (content that they scored a lot~back to sleep)

 

[Bolt Fore]

You nailed I Shall, back to sleep at least Bishop went to sleep. He's playing like he wants to be traded. He may get his wish !

 

[Bolt Fore]

4-2 just what said I Shall. That means a scoreless third period.

Just what YOU said.

Yes indeed asleep. Pens did play well, they were all over the ice after the puck. Sid with 4 assists, unbelievable! That's where you can see the BIG difference between Sid & Stamkos. Sid shows up & leads by example most of the time. Stamkos disappears a lot! I don't think a winger can help him, it's call discipline, urgency & hunger to win! Bishop? What in Hell happened to him? But still I would not trade him until the 2 younger net-minders are fully ready to take the reins. Vasy still needs more reps in the AHL, a ton more. I don't want him to end up like Lindback, who was a very good talent & prospect but now wasted talent. Oh well, good game Pens & Pen fans...the mighty Guin has spoken. (Lol, remember that song Bolt? Mighty Quin wasn't it?)

Good game fellas, is it just me or has anyone else noticed Stamkos's reluctance to shoot the puck. Notice he's been passing up shots to setup teammates as of late. Unselfishness is good, but Stamkos is greater as a snipe than as a playmaker, he should play to his strengths IMO.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

I wonder if Cooper decided to tell Stamkos to start passing up shots to make assists. If so, he has got to go IMO.

 

[I_Shall_Return]

He took 5 SOG tonight, which is a lot more than his usual. He just lacks heart BIG time. Old giggly Pooper is babbling again right now on tv. Chomp chomp chomp giggle giggle

"Hey Stamkos, you got the best shot in the NHL, why don't you start passing up shots and try to setup teammates? Tee hee hee, chomp chomp!"-Cooper

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

If you have a shot like Stamkos & you got the puck in the slot then you have a better chance to score than anyone else on the ice. That shot should never be passed up IMO.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

IDK just seems stupid to turn Stamkos into a setup guy. Really neutralizes the greatest asset on the Lightning. Would be like making Brett Hull into a setup guy. Just doesn't make any sense.

 

[DoobeeDoobeeDoo]

Would be like having Shaq in his prime setting up at the 3 point line. If this was Cooper's idea than he has no clue what he's doing.

I have no idea but i'm hoping cooper does not mess with kucherov him and stamkos need to be shooting!

 

[Todd1a]

bishop looks like he is still hurt with something or rust maybe he needs to sit out a week or two.
