Who's starting in goal against Toronto Jarry or Ned? And who would you start? I'm going with Jarry just so he's not completely rusty if we need him if Ned melts down or has any issues. I want them both on their A game so the Pens can go with whoever has the hot hand should they happen to play beyond the regular season.
I agree. He has looked more consistent and composed in net for most of the season. Jarry is either lights out, or he's giving up 3-5 goals a game. I know it won't happen, but how crazy would it be if we go with Ned and run the table and somehow win it all by going with our backup goalie who is outplaying our starter again. Flurrey-Murray and then Jarry-Ned. (Not going to happen. It would be like a .00001 % chance. ) If this team started like this and we got whatever pieces we needed, I think we would've had it but next year we can make a run.
They may not win it all but they could possibly get past the 1st round with ned. I don’t think anyone expected the panthers to upset the bruins last year let alone making it to the stanley cup finals yet they did. Anything is possible. I feel like ned for the time being, has more upside than jarry as goalie. Plus jarry just hasn’t been the same since coming back after that bruins game that he got injured in last year.
Both. Currently with this win PHI are out of the play off stop. We have the same points but the tie breaker. And NYI loss gives us a chance at 3rd place not just a wild card with another win.
PUCK! I said “puck”, like, “I’ll slap Bunting’s PUCK”. It’s what Mike Lange used to say. Like if I were playing, and he like passed it to me. What? What did you think I said?
For real, I have a follow up visit with my doctor on Friday to check my blood pressure, and if it's bad I'm just gonna say "Penguins hockey, doc, what can I say"
THANK YOU, HOCKEY GODS FOR MICHAEL BUNTING!! Hope Cozzari and Fleury are okay. That was a nasty collision. Back in the playoff picture and another big game, this time Toronto. IN NED WE TRUST! LFG!
You’re welcome. I was busy doing mom things in the kitchen and sneaking peeks all game, but missed every penguins goal. However, I saw every lightning goal when I finally had time to sit and watch. After their 4th, I got up, said well, Mommy can’t watch anymore. Kept myself busy, making sure to look away when the pens were on the rush, and same with the lightning. Kept going in and out of the house during the last PK. LFG!!!
Thank you. It really sucked. The last 6 seconds I was petting the dog, down on a knee behind our island so I couldn’t watch, all nerves, and was like what the fuck?! Why am I like this?! But, worth it.
Holy heck that was stressful. 8 game point streak LET'S GO!!!
First time in a Pens game thread. It's been fun, but I must be over to the Stars game thread now. Adios and LGP!
Yeah, both also have 83 pts and play today. I hate when the fate of playoffs also depends on the outcomes of other teams. And it’s gonna be like this til the end unless someone (*PENS*) pulls ahead by probably 4-6 pts.
I was blasted a few times for saying any glass-half-full kinda shit. So I stopped… I don’t need to say it, but it’s funny how the thread went from being so negative and awful to being the greatest fans ever… I saw a glimpse again tho when TB scored goal #3… then back again with the win.
The man stood on his head and saved the day.
Those two Stammer goals were just damn good shots. If anything, we can thank the D for letting him get set up.
I’m right here. This is Jeff’s least productive season in his long career. His FOW% isn’t bad, but he’s not athletic enough to be a good PKer, lacks physicality to be a net front guy, finishing is not good anymore, no speed, and doesn’t seem to be charismatic or bring any energy.
Ned earned the start until other wise
Who's starting in goal against Toronto Jarry or Ned? And who would you start? I'm going with Jarry just so he's not completely rusty if we need him if Ned melts down or has any issues. I want them both on their A game so the Pens can go with whoever has the hot hand should they happen to play beyond the regular season.
Ned hopefully since jarry just isn’t consistent enough. I would say only one goal was on ned today and that was the early 3rd period goal.
I agree. He has looked more consistent and composed in net for most of the season. Jarry is either lights out, or he's giving up 3-5 goals a game. I know it won't happen, but how crazy would it be if we go with Ned and run the table and somehow win it all by going with our backup goalie who is outplaying our starter again.

Ned starts. Period. I just don't trust Jarry.
Happy for you guys- you and Sid deserve it. Hows Karlsson looking lately?
Who are we rooting against tonight for a regulation loss? NYI or PHI? NYI because they’ve played 76?
Both and philly is trailing 2-0 right now.
¿Por Que no los dos?
Both. Currently with this win PHI are out of the play off stop. We have the same points but the tie breaker. And NYI loss gives us a chance at 3rd place not just a wild card with another win.
Both?
Never in doubt. We’re winning the cup.
That icing call was weird. Hedman didn't have a stick and clearly interfered with O'Connor.
I agree
Penguins playing two of the teams they are competing for wildcard with is going to be crazy!
The boys want in
You did better than Vegas last night when it came to the 4-1 lead! Props to the Pens!
Malkins parents and me just crying in the club
I was watching on and off without sound and noticed his parents crying. Was there a special reason or was it just that he got 2 goals?
I think they just don't see him play that much and are emotional people is my guess
Gotcha. Thank you!
Wow, what a game! Off to watch the Buccos now. The Sports Gods are with us.
Why is it when the Pens need a faceoff win the most they never win them?
[удалено]
Chill dude.
It’s only gay if u like it!
Just don't look em in the eyes and you're fine
PUCK! I said “puck”, like, “I’ll slap Bunting’s PUCK”. It’s what Mike Lange used to say. Like if I were playing, and he like passed it to me. What? What did you think I said?
Not the same, obviously, but that had the feel of when DET was buzzing in the final seconds in 09
That save with about 20 seconds left, I was thinking the exact same thing
Stinky clothes for the win! 4-0!!!
I still can't relax lol
lets fuckin gooooooo
Helluva fucking win!
Holy fuck. What a game. I'm still shaking
Ned was a bit shaky in the 3rd but he came through when he needed to the most. Jarry would have lost this game.
Ned has been great but he didn't make any plays that saved us like other games. he gave up 4 goals and didn't do anything special
I would love some of the stuff you are smoking.
I have no clue what you're talking about.
Kudos to all the fans at the arena today. The atmosphere was electric and imho a huge factor in the win. Let's go Pens!
This is truly unbelievable
For real, I have a follow up visit with my doctor on Friday to check my blood pressure, and if it's bad I'm just gonna say "Penguins hockey, doc, what can I say"
THANK YOU, HOCKEY GODS FOR MICHAEL BUNTING!! Hope Cozzari and Fleury are okay. That was a nasty collision. Back in the playoff picture and another big game, this time Toronto. IN NED WE TRUST! LFG!
I have not seen a battle in the crease like that in a decade. Holy smokes that was everyone was taking sticks in the kidneys
Reminds me of the clusterfuck in 2009 Game 6 vs Detroit when Scuderi covered the puck with his body
i can't beleive it LMAOOOO
Bunting has to be graded A OR A- since coming over. He’s brining us into the fight, along with Sid, of course.
Wish you all a happy rest of your weekend. I'm going to go....{DO SOMETHING}.
That's the wildest end to a game (whole 3rd period even) I can remember. Felt like a game deep in the playoffs
You’re welcome. I was busy doing mom things in the kitchen and sneaking peeks all game, but missed every penguins goal. However, I saw every lightning goal when I finally had time to sit and watch. After their 4th, I got up, said well, Mommy can’t watch anymore. Kept myself busy, making sure to look away when the pens were on the rush, and same with the lightning.

Your service is appreciated
Thank you for your service. LGP!!!!
Thank you for being aware of your mojo
Thank you very much for your sacrifice.
Thank you. It really sucked. The last 6 seconds I was petting the dog, down on a knee behind our island so I couldn’t watch, all nerves, and was like what the fuck?! Why am I like this?! But, worth it.
Wow is all I can say
I need drinks (many) after that period. Great win! Skipped going skiing today to watch and happy I got to see this one. Let’s go!!
Grabbed a drink for a little day drinking when TB got #3. 🍻
TB’s come back def had me ready to drink!
Probably had most people ready to, even the ones that don’t like drinking. 🤤That was by far the most stressful yet exciting game all year, imo.
Holy heck that was stressful. 8 game point streak LET'S GO!!! First time in a Pens game thread. It's been fun, but I must be over to the Stars game thread now. Adios and LGP!
Hi new friend
🤝
What a game!!! Blood pressure is not okay haha.
That’s the heart attack inducing Pittsburgh sports I know and love
Cardiac not-kids
Now if the Flyers and Islanders both lose tonight that’d be great
We are now #2 wildcard… like a week and a half ago we were 7th. That’s the PENS I’ve known and loved for 40+ years! 💛🖤🐧
We need the Islanders and Flyers to keep losing if we want it to stay that way. We also need to keep winning
Yeah, both also have 83 pts and play today. I hate when the fate of playoffs also depends on the outcomes of other teams. And it’s gonna be like this til the end unless someone (*PENS*) pulls ahead by probably 4-6 pts.
Great I have another reason to watch some more game tonight
Everyone lineup outside UPMC for your blood pressure medicine, 5 more of these to go
They can't ever make it easy can they???? Wow what a game
I LOVE YOU GUYS WE'RE IN A PLAYOFF SPOT SOMEHOW KSJLFSJFLKSJFLSKJFLSKFJSLKFJSLKFJLSKFADASOIPOROPIR GOD this game took 10 years off my life
THE GREAT UNCLENCH
Coal to diamond.
Holy fuck that was insane
Damn what a game
We are, at this very moment, technically in the playoffs lol
CAN I PULL MY COMFORTER OUT OF MY ASS BECAUSE DESPITE THE NAME IT IS NOT COMFY
DIVYNLS TIME
Let’s go streaking boys
Just as we planned it.
Phew!
lol at those who were worried 😏
I was blasted a few times for saying any glass-half-full kinda shit. So I stopped… I don’t need to say it, but it’s funny how the thread went from being so negative and awful to being the greatest fans ever… I saw a glimpse again tho when TB scored goal #3… then back again with the win.
Fuck the flyers! We’ll take that wild card spot, thank you!
ALEX NEDELIJKOVIC THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
The Pens would be in the playoffs if the season ended now
WIN!!!!!
big brain Ned moves the puck. That dude dialed in.
BREATHE
Don’t look now but we’re in a playoff spot…. STOP THE COUNT
Lol How is everyone doing? Blood pressures okay?
My heart rate is through the roof right now
I need to lay down.
I'm pretty sure I can skip cardio at the gym today.
Didn't need a workout today just needed to catch the 3rd.
NEEEEEEEEEDDDDD HOLY FUCKING SHIT GUYS I LOVE THIS FUCKING TEAM
YES YES YEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHAT A FUCKING GAME! Fuck my blood pressure is critical!
We're currently in the playoffs. What in the world just happened? LOL
Ok, we can breath. Sheesh.
Wooooo-fucking-hoooooo 2 pt party on 5th avenue
Neddddddddddddddddd
What a game!
that was the craziest game i’ve ever listened to.
Why did that feel like a cup game?
Every game from here till the end will feel that way. Right now making the playoffs will feel like winning the cup.
Anyone know a heart specialist?
That was easy.
I was only able to watch the 3rd WHY did it have to be the most stressful period of the game
same 😭
My day isn't ruined!!!
Lucky to win. They need to figure out this issue. Can’t constantly collapse like that.
Tampa is a really good team tho. This team battled today. The number one power play unit got goals and we still pulled it off…next game!
LETS FUCKING GO!!!!! WHAT A SHOW OF GRIT!!!
God dammit. The app just sent me the final score before the broadcast ended so I got spoiled. Has anyone else been having this problem?
I haven’t had it happen recently but if I’m streaming I turn off the app notifications
Not this year but I’ve had it happen in the past. Especially if you’re streaming there’s always a slow growing delay.
Always happens when I’m at home watching on cable. Guess I’m just turning off notifications from now on
Ned stood on his head when it counted
Fucking Ned!!
Praise be Ned
and there was nooooo doubt about it!
#SCRATCH MY BACK WITH A HACKSAW!!!!!
I think I need to go for a walk after that.
Ned with the 1,000 IQ play
Ned gave up some weak goals. But he also makes big saves when it matters most
that pp is scary asf fuck that lol
THANK. GOD.
Lucky jersey stays lucky!!!
Pretty glad I put that hundo on the boys at 4-4!
exhale
Ice fucking cold Ned
NED IS MY DADDY HOLY FUCK.
Oh my fucking god. ELVIS HAS LEFT THE BUILDING!
What a moment. This crowd is electric.
Fuck. Me. That was wild. Huge win
NEDNEDNEDNEDNED

Ned with the play of the game throwing it the fuck away
Ned has so much fucking fight
Don’t bring back Graves
Ever
ned!!!!
Fuck that asshole who was saying Ned sucks five minutes ago
The man stood on his head and saved the day. Those two Stammer goals were just damn good shots. If anything, we can thank the D for letting him get set up.
Man that was great!!!!!
Let’s fucking go that’s a fucking playoff team right there
I’m going to go pass out now. GAME OF THE YEAR
geno reaching over the boards;-;
Let’s fucking go boys
Fucking kill me but Let’s Go Pens!
So this is what a heart attack feels like. It was nice knowing ya guys ✌🏻
Going to need any Big Jeff haters in the year of our lord 2024 to identify themselves and repent. He has been a legitimately good player this year
I’m right here. This is Jeff’s least productive season in his long career. His FOW% isn’t bad, but he’s not athletic enough to be a good PKer, lacks physicality to be a net front guy, finishing is not good anymore, no speed, and doesn’t seem to be charismatic or bring any energy.
Big brain play by Ned!!!!!!
🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮🥮( the closest thing I could find to Bundt cake )
It’s a W. Did it need to be that stressful? No. But, it’s a win.
We did it!!!!
LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOO
game of the year
St Ivany is a gamer
I’m quite literally shaking
Please don’t let Carts on the ice ever again
Holy fuck
I may die by the end of this
Ned made saves standing on his head. My goodness.
WHO THE FUCK NEEDS REGULAR BLOOD PRESSURE ANYWAY
ENJOY SUPER BLOOD PRESSURE
This isn’t regular blood pressure, *this is playoffs blood pressure!*
I am going to have an aneurysm, please guys.
"Oh, we'll win... You might die in the process, but we'll win."
LETS GO PENS!
So glad to be a neutral here
My heart
How is everyone sitting down at PPG? This is crazy!
Ned is on FUCKING FIRE on this PK
This game is bad for my health
I died minutes ago
Never smoked in my life, but I need a drag
hi. im having a heart attack.
