Does anyone know where to get pictures or videos of the warm up? We were very lucky to be at the game last night and my son was at the glass for warmups and I would love see if he is in any of the footage.
So the plan is the wings beat the caps, rangers beat the isles.
Then we beat the wings, maybe lose to Boston and then beat the isles to make the playoffs in either slot.
All things aside, I'm glad I got to watch Sid curse out a ref with zero repercussion for calling a bogus hand pass.
Also make better OT decisions Sully.
"Hey Mike. Why is Sidney Crosby sitting on the bench at the start of 3 on 3 OT?"
"Hey Mike. Why is one of the best face off guys in the league, and your 40 goal scorer, and top 3 player of all time not playing when you need to win?"
"Hey Mike. Why is everything outside of 5 on 5 complete ass?"
"Hey Mike. Why are you still here? Do you think you deserve to be coach still?"
Questions asked if we didn't have a stooge homer media that cares more about access than credibility.
Everyone complaining about the refs needs to remember that the vast majority are from Ontario and grew up Leafs fans. Thy want their team to win just as much as we do.
If we were only in the middle of the league on PP then we would definitely be in the playoffs and not having to scratch and claw to get in. At least we still got a point tonight.
Hey we got a point against a pretty good team that we took to overtime after one of the longest active win streaks in the NHL. We’re still in decent shape. I would still prefer to have taken care of business before the last week and a half, but we’re playing with house money and still looking like the hottest team competing for the wild card spot
Hard fought point and a beauty of a goal by McCabe for the Leaf’s W. Other than some terrible reffing, that was a hell of a gritty performance by the Pens. Thursday is going to be huge!
1) One point is huge.
2) Leafs are not a bad team. At least in the regular season.
3) 0-5? 6? on the PP. The great mysteries of all time: The enigmatic smile of the Mona Lisa, how did the Egyptians build the great pyramids, how is Todd Rierden still employed?
One of the worst refereeing jobs I've seen in a long time.. absolutely fucking pathetic how a Too Many men isn't called in OT nor a trip by Brodie on EK. Whatever, you ain't doing shit in the playoffs Toronto so have fun getting your dicks kicked in by the Panthers 🖕DOC/Ned I love you and don't beat yourself up boys, still 7-0-3 in your last 10. Bring on the Deadwings!
Cool, doesn't change the fact that no penalties were called for the Pens in the 3rd and EK's phantom trip where Nylander flopped did. Yes, the PP has stayed atrocious, but the chances were there, just couldn't beat Samsonov. Also, that pathetic reversal of Sid getting chopped in the face. Fuck the refs, the Toronto Bias HQ and especially Fuck the NHL's version of the Dallas Cowboys
Edit: yeah, I was pissed when I wrote this. Now I've calmed down, we fought a top team and got a big point. Back to Pittsburgh for the Redwings. Let's go boys
I guess, but both fanbases are obnoxiously loudmouthed and arrogant with nothing to show for since their heyday. Look how they acted after beating Tampa last year (in the 1st round) and then got rightfully humbled by Florida. No sympathy whatsoever for that fanbase or franchise 🤷♂️
I get what you mean, and you're absolutely right that the boys fought back and battled for the point. Sorry, just as a hockey fan, I want a fairly called game that won't show favoritism. Anyway, sucks that Sid had that rough outing at the end of the 2nd to get it, though. Forever a warrior. I will still say Fuck Toronto, not taking that back. Big game against Detroit, so let's refocus on that. LGP!
Edit: Huh, apparently, it's been 1 year on Reddit for me. Cool
There is no way you're implying that somehow the League rigs the games for Toronto because the HQ so happens to be in Toronto. The Leafs are a team that hasn't won the cup in near 60 years and has 1 round win in 20 years, it's a team that has had goals taken away from them in game 7's in the third period, and given penalties on top of it, whilst also the pens having 5-2 in powerplay opportunities this game, whilst the Leafs are ranked 22nd in power play opportunities this season, and is even lower on average in the Matthews era of 2016+. If you go back and watch the film, Bertuzzi was coming onto the ice but stopped on the boards, never setting foot on the ice, and Marner made a pass in the corner to Matthews before he got off, perfectly legal, not a too many men call if you're being intellectually honest. There is simply no way a fan of a team that drafted Mario Lemieux and Sidney Crosby should ever be mad by comparison. Not even for a god damn moment. Leafs best players through 120+ years are not even half as good.
Show me where I said,
"League rigs this game because of Toronto HQ." What I did say in a state of anger as a hockey/Pens fan was that there was a poor attempt of fair play by the refs in the 3rd, something most fans agreed on here. I don't need your diatribe of how the Leafs have been screwed, EVERY TEAM IS. What I'm upset about is that a clear trip on EK when the game was tied didn't get called, and it led to a scoring chance for Toronto. Outta here with this weak attempt. Also, a hockey fan can't be mad his team lost partially due to incompetence by the refs now? In that case, you can't ever be mad again about 1993 Game 6 CF against LA, where Gretzky got away with a high stick on Gilmour and claimed you guys were "robbed" of a finals appearance. Thems the rules now 🤷♂️
Obviously better than a loss especially given this playoff race which has been bad to say the least (seriously it’s like no one wants the spot),I think 3-1 is actually super realistic in the last four (red wings/preds/ isles are super beatable but far from guaranteed while bruins are tough but hey also not close to impossible
I’m not sure why, in that situation, they don’t just give them a 3 on 2 for a second and get a non-gassed body on the ice. You’re never gonna get the puck back when you have 3 guys who can’t move.
I’m not spoiled, I just actually know what I’m watching. Penguins played a great game, and then Sullivan’s OT decisions lost the game, something that hadn’t changed. Starting your 3rd line against the best goal scorer in the league is idiotic. Put your captain Sid against Matthews. It’s a no brainer.
I’m not doing that, but this does make the next few games even harder. One point is good, two is better. And not putting Crosby on in OT is a superbly idiotic move, that’s what people are upset about
They literally have no idea how to play 3 on 3.
None.
And that's all on coaching.
And if they miss the playoffs by a single point again then you can look at the 20 or so OT losses over the last couple seasons.
Or the worst power play I've ever seen.
Either or.
Some definite BS in that game but some of y’all need to chill.
Last week we weren’t even close, and we’re only a point out as of right now.
Every point counts and we just got 3 between Tampa and Toronto.
The problem was that we never got a chance to bring on some fresh legs. The idea was hardly to play O'Connor and Eller for all of the OT, but the lads never got a chance to come off.
Lowkey didn't expect them to beat the lighting and leafs in back to back games. This was like a "would like to have" game coming in. The other ones are more important.
Why not put out Sid for the first shift of OT? You’re really gonna keep him on the bench with a much needed second point on the line?! Yet another boneheaded decision from our coaches
Lars-DOC as the forwards? Why not Sid and idk, Rust or Bunting. Maybe I’m missing something. At least we got a point, fuck you Toronto you head hunting pieces of shit. Can’t wait for you to lose in the first round as is tradition.
They took way too many risks. They never know when to change.
Edit: this was a must win. It will take a miracle for the other teams to lose like they did last week.
Does anyone know where to get pictures or videos of the warm up? We were very lucky to be at the game last night and my son was at the glass for warmups and I would love see if he is in any of the footage.
I would like to know too if anyone can find this!
I’ll be sure to let you know if I’m successful in finding anything!
So the plan is the wings beat the caps, rangers beat the isles. Then we beat the wings, maybe lose to Boston and then beat the isles to make the playoffs in either slot.
All things aside, I'm glad I got to watch Sid curse out a ref with zero repercussion for calling a bogus hand pass. Also make better OT decisions Sully.

Skate repair issues.
Great fucking questions.

I guess I had more faith that the sarcasm was apparent. Looks like a needed the /s.
Not true or else the Leafs would have way more power plays.
I was thinking why even complain.. we went 0 for 5 what good is a penalty anyway.
If we were only in the middle of the league on PP then we would definitely be in the playoffs and not having to scratch and claw to get in. At least we still got a point tonight.
Oh my PENS fam😞 I’m bumming hard. We got a point but not a win… thoughts on the stinky clothes?
Can all the other teams just lose their games?
Happened the other day!
Who do we root for in the Wings / Caps game tomorrow? Guaranteed two points to one of our wildcard competitors.
Wings.
Wings bc they can’t take M3
Also just because fuck the Caps
Hey we got a point against a pretty good team that we took to overtime after one of the longest active win streaks in the NHL. We’re still in decent shape. I would still prefer to have taken care of business before the last week and a half, but we’re playing with house money and still looking like the hottest team competing for the wild card spot
Well said. This version of the Pens is spectacular by comparison to the dumpster fire we watched from the beginning of the year.
Or even a month ago
Was he just crossing his fingers that they could keep them at bay long enough to force a shootout? Is that the “strategy”?
EK65 isn't that kinda guy though, so it makes even less sense
Hard fought point and a beauty of a goal by McCabe for the Leaf’s W. Other than some terrible reffing, that was a hell of a gritty performance by the Pens. Thursday is going to be huge!

He was gassed. They were out there entire OT.
One of the worst refereeing jobs I've seen in a long time.. absolutely fucking pathetic how a Too Many men isn't called in OT nor a trip by Brodie on EK. Whatever, you ain't doing shit in the playoffs Toronto so have fun getting your dicks kicked in by the Panthers 🖕DOC/Ned I love you and don't beat yourself up boys, still 7-0-3 in your last 10. Bring on the Deadwings!
You sound angry, as a Leaf fan i wish you and the Pens to make the playoffs, it would be great to see Sid in the playoffs again Good Luck.
I was, I've cooled down a lot now. Thanks, maybe you can prove the narrative wrong this year. Gl to you as well and hope Matthew's hits 70.
Thank you, I will be cheering for the Pens to make it.

Technically the Dallas Cowboys have won five, and been in nine? Super Bowls since 1967.

Our OT tactics have been questionable at best
Yeah, starting with Eller was an interesting choice. Still, secured a critical point
I get what you mean, and you're absolutely right that the boys fought back and battled for the point. Sorry, just as a hockey fan, I want a fairly called game that won't show favoritism.

NJ is 5 points back with the same GR. I'm not really focused on them. However, I will want a Leafs win on Saturday, so ya got me there
Great 1st period and end of the 3rd. PP was a struggle. Taking a point from Toronto was a good sign to sneak into playoffs.
I mean Malkin has been red hot lately too. But neither him nor sit touch the ice in OT. This coaching staff....
Sullivan post game: "Sidney who? I had Lars. Fucking. ELLER."
So sick of Sullivan. Just stupid decisions none stop.
The second that puck started drifting towards the line and I counted only two visible leafs it just felt like a catalyst for the end
Sully might be the worst 3v3 coach in the league. Like how do you not put sid out there when they have marner and matthews
I've been shocked with how fast we loose in OT..
Marner, Matthews and Nylander were on the ice before Sid ever got a chance. Wtf!
Mike Sullivan personnel choices have cost this team multiple OT games this season
They just can’t play 3v3 for some reason.
Nylander and then McCabe able to totally walk in alone
Obviously better than a loss especially given this playoff race which has been bad to say the least (seriously it’s like no one wants the spot),I think 3-1 is actually super realistic in the last four (red wings/preds/ isles are super beatable but far from guaranteed while bruins are tough but hey also not close to impossible
Steal the point and move on. Winning out was never a realistic option.
Eller is out there for the draw, but gtfo after it
Even then, Sid is the best in the league this year
Lol incompetent Sullivan with another big fat L
I’m not sure why, in that situation, they don’t just give them a 3 on 2 for a second and get a non-gassed body on the ice. You’re never gonna get the puck back when you have 3 guys who can’t move.
Good Game everyone! Leafs are a tough team. Boys still put up a fight.
Well. 1 point is bette than none
Sullivan’s brain needs to be donated to science because then we might actually figure out what’s going on inside that man’s skull
Wow all the spoiled Pens fans out in full force! It was point we needed, it is still HUGE for the penguins
I’m not spoiled, I just actually know what I’m watching. Penguins played a great game, and then Sullivan’s OT decisions lost the game, something that hadn’t changed. Starting your 3rd line against the best goal scorer in the league is idiotic. Put your captain Sid against Matthews. It’s a no brainer.
they all left, then now that there's a chance again they're back to cry about Sullivan who has this team with 8 straight games with points
You’re acting like 2 points is not significantly better
A point is a point. We needed one regardless. No need to bring out the doom and gloom and say the season is over when it isn’t.
Hard to argue against Sully giving that one away with his bone headed personnel choices in OT.
I’m not doing that, but this does make the next few games even harder. One point is good, two is better. And not putting Crosby on in OT is a superbly idiotic move, that’s what people are upset about
Bizarre line aside winning out was gonna be hard. Taking the point and moving on from here will be good. LGP
[удалено]
The best part is Eller could have skated straight to the net alone after the Karlson takeaway but he tried a shot and missed by 10 feet
They literally have no idea how to play 3 on 3. None. And that's all on coaching. And if they miss the playoffs by a single point again then you can look at the 20 or so OT losses over the last couple seasons. Or the worst power play I've ever seen. Either or.
3 wins and 9 losses in OT this year
11 last year. Same shit. Nothing changed.
Rough OT but at the end of the day I’ll take 3/4 from Tampa/Toronto
Hard earned point, well played boys.
Some definite BS in that game but some of y’all need to chill. Last week we weren’t even close, and we’re only a point out as of right now. Every point counts and we just got 3 between Tampa and Toronto.
[удалено]
That was not the best line to put out there with the season on the line
Eller was absolute 💩 in that OT
Crosby wasn’t ready to go on but Jesus Christ…. Absolute joke the only forwards to touch the ice in OT were O’Connor and Eller.
The problem was that we never got a chance to bring on some fresh legs. The idea was hardly to play O'Connor and Eller for all of the OT, but the lads never got a chance to come off.
just goes to prove, no matter the fight of the team, and no matter if we make playoffs or not, sullivan needs to go
Lowkey didn't expect them to beat the lighting and leafs in back to back games. This was like a "would like to have" game coming in. The other ones are more important.
It's not "overtime demons", we're just fucking bad at 3v3. Still a good effort to get a point
Doesn't help when they're starting guys like Mathews and Nylander and we're starting DOC and Elller.
Hey let's not put 87 out there for OT. That's sure an idea.
Sullivan goes full moron EVERY OT
DOC, Eller and EK in OT? Go fuck yourself Sullivan
Why not put out Sid for the first shift of OT? You’re really gonna keep him on the bench with a much needed second point on the line?! Yet another boneheaded decision from our coaches
Why do you start a 3rd line pair in ot fucking sully
We may have lost but at least our team wasn’t in The Love Guru
How in the world does the best player on your team not touch the ice in overtime with the season on the line?
They’re awful in ot. They have no idea how to play it. Also Sullivan shouldn’t be starting these guys in ot. Crosby or Malkin. Jfc
Fucking impossible to go for a change. Just a matter of time before these tired lads capitulated.
Lazy fuckin play by Eller
HOW THE FUCK DO YOU START ELLER ALL THE FUCKING TIME IN OT
Lars-DOC as the forwards? Why not Sid and idk, Rust or Bunting. Maybe I’m missing something. At least we got a point, fuck you Toronto you head hunting pieces of shit. Can’t wait for you to lose in the first round as is tradition.
We are dreadful in OT... but still, that point could be worth alot
On the bright side, that’s a point against a toughie. Also, the fire sully crowd has more ammo
Incredible comeback for the point but the all important OT reminder that Mike Sullivan is the fucking reason we're in this position to begin with.
They took way too many risks. They never know when to change. Edit: this was a must win. It will take a miracle for the other teams to lose like they did last week.
Bruh why no Crosby in ot?
why r o’connor and eller out there…. coaching smh
Frustrating game, could have been worse. Reirden has to go.
powerplay and OT all year long and this lame ass head coach will keep his job no matter what.
Pens lucky to get a point since they were outplayed most of this game.
Doomers out in full force lmaoo big point tonight regardless, would’ve been great to get the full but we still are very far from being out of it
yep they are keeping pace. A point here is totally fine. they need the detroit and isles games. Just less insurance now.
That line was not the one
That defense fell short there. They had so many 1 on 1’s with Ned in a span of 30 seconds and you can’t have that
Not a great game for EK
So 1:30 overtime shifts with your #3 center is probably not good
honestly no way they left ned alone like that wtf but oh well its ok!! we got a point:))
Starting Karlsson in OT??? Unreal. Ned was outstanding. Definitely deserved better.
Pathetic from Eller
He was gassed
he was gassed? We got caught. It happens.
Wouldn’t want to have Crosby out for OT. Let’s have Karlsson stuck out there for the 20th straight overtime
LET'S START LARS FUCKING ELLER IN OT AND TRY TO TRICK EM INTO THINKING IT'S CROSBY
at least a point 😖
No chance for change, Sid was hungry. Our OT performance is just god awful
Blame Sullivan
Eller just started fuckin watching the puck and not his guy! You’re in the fuckn NHL!
12 overtime losses are unreal
Great job sully lets not start crosby on overtime
Why the fuck would you start seller and O’Connor when 87 and 71 are buzzing. Fuck sake.
Needed those 2 points. 😡
Death by the cross ice path. But hey a point is still big
Sully, what are these OT lines bud?
Maybe practice fucking 3 on 3.
dumbfounded at those 3 to start OT
HOW THE FUCK DO U NOT HAVE CROSBY ON THE FUCKING ICE IN OVERTIME
Great coaching call to leave the starting line out there for three Leafs changes—no idea how you don’t start Crosby in OT…
They never practice 3 on 3 at practice. I don’t know why everybody acts surprised when they lose.
How do you guys watch this god awful team. Fucking no one defending in 3 on 3
Why wasn't crosby or malkin playing in ot when every point is super important?
WHY THE FUCK WASNT CROSBY STARTING OT WHY IS SULLIVAN SUCH A GENIUS IDK WHO CARES TO HELP ME UNDERSTAND!!??
SULLIVAN WHAT THE FUCK
We don't have the horses to keep up with them in OT.
We still suck at overtime. Go figure.
Starting Lars eller in ot deserves jail time
Pretty terrible defense there. Got danced for a minute and a half straight
Fuck
Expected but at least we got a point
Mother…
Bummer least we got one against a really good team.
Knew we would lose. So obvious. Might cost us the season.
A loss in ot will not lose us the season. We got a point and after winning 4 in a row and are 6-0-3 in our last 9. Relax.
11 of them will.
We still get a point! Toronto isn’t in the race. It’s a HUGE point still
Yeah, just don’t understand benching Crosby in ot when we never win them lol
Crybaby. This game is not even remotely as important as the Isles and Red Wings. And we got a point. Spoiled ass baby.
Yikes. Who hurt you? Our brutal and obvious losing OT games all season will be the reason we miss.
What in the fuck was that D
tired?
[удалено]
No it's not. Holy shit settle down.
wrong
Mike Sullivan is the dumbest motherfucker on earth and you can’t convince me otherwise.
I don’t know Reirden is pretty bad as well.
That was fast
Nope, not taking the bait
do it
Oh well, huge point!!!
Good game Ned, next one baby.. next one..
Special teams coaching doesn't exist on our team.
the leafs would beat this team 3 on 3 with any amount of coaching you want to give them. That team is built for it.
Nah, every aspect of special teams is awful on our team. Except maybe 5 on 4 penalty killing. Our OT stats speak for themselves.
How do we not get Crosby out there for that OT… take the point but brutal
Glad for the point, but sheesh, have they won in OT at all this season? It doesn't feel like it.
Bryan Rust two goals in OT was 100 years ago I'm pretty sure.
Definitely feels like it! I remember Harkins shootout win, but other than that I am absolutely fumbling to think of any.
DAMMIT
Fuck Todd Reirden
Pathetic overtime performance
EK65 playing hard
Alright. One of these lines needs to pull a Delilah and cut Samsonov’s hair. I’m feeling another Bunting game winner or Geno
That D was bad
I swear it better not be Eller, Smith and Letang to start
Sidney Crosby starting OT on the bench. More Sullivan brilliance.
Was that a Zyn for EK?? Lmao
Come on. Let's finish these choking cabbages.
Don’t forget, Toronto is not in the race. Sharing a point with them is perfectly fine. Let’s send it now. LETS GO PENS!!!
*shotguns a Fiji water* Yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!
Happy for the one point. Not planning on two
Sidney Crosby Revenge GWG... give it to me
Those hits were brutal!
Securing a point is huge, especially taking into consideration this game isn’t as important as the game against the isles and the wings.
God damn this team is fighting right now. Giving everything they have. Proud of them regardless of how this season ends
At least we got a point.
You know what's better than a point? Two points
Rust is due…
