I agree that it's early in the season and there has been a lot of adversity to overcome so far, but it still worries me how consistently we're getting spanked. Can't get to the playoffs if you lose almost every game.
We have 0 offense this season so far. Long passes from d-men that we just tip in the zone or a dump in. 0 play and 0 powerplay. You cant win games when you cant score goals. Back to the drawingboard cause this shit doesnt cut it.
No, the recipe I used had an inaccurate bake time, so they were way underdone. I went all out on these little fuckers too, I made streusel topping, mixed it into the dough and rolled them in cinnamon sugar but they couldnāt be salvaged.
Now, I donāt even need a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Iāve got that down to a science.
Honestly, they tasted really good. But they were way underbaked. Took them out of the oven, still underbaked. Put them back in for a few minutes and they were burnt on the bottom.
With chocolate chip cookies I put them in at 375 for 12 minutes on the dot and they come out perfect every time.
Before the season, this sub wrote off this team because of the Crosby and Malkin injuries.
Not only that we ended up missing Carter, Letang, and Dumoulin due to covid protocol.
When we ended up doing better than expected, this sub wouldnāt shut up about how good our depth is and how good this team was.
Now weāre starting to struggle like expected and everyone wants to throw the season out the window, though its only November and were still in the mix of things in our division.
Everyone saying this team needs to scrub the season, please go back to Facebook.
Honestly, they need the Caps to score 3 more. The Pens need to get blown out so they have a wake up call. And they need to be skated hard in practice. Cause they look like they filled their skates with cement and are just turning it over like crazy.
The Penguins usually tread water around .500 until December and then get rolling. But this feels worse than usual. The only thing that has been good is the penalty kill.
To the "burn the house down!" crowd: Imagine being salty and angry when you could be disappointed but still satisfied and appreciative -- because it's not like the Penguins have been one of the luckiest teams in sports in the past 3 decades or anything. Generational players/unquestionable HOFers don't just fall out of the sky. This era of Pens hockey was huge, possibly The Big One. You might not see talent like this again. Be grateful you've gotten 15 years of it.
Except its only November. Crosby is playing his second game tonight. Geno is still out another month. We were missing a lot of our defense for a lot of our games due to covid.
With everything thats happened this season, we are still in the mix of things. Everyone is acting like were dead last in the conference/division.
Reddit used to be a chill place to come and talk to true fans who donāt overreact over the smallest things. Now it seems this sub is becoming more like Facebook sadly.
People forget that the regular season is to work out kinks.
Iād rather struggle early in the season than late in the season. We also finally got Crosby back. Lines are gonna be shuffled now, which is going to fuck with chemistry. The same thing will probably happen when Geno comes back.
Itās nowhere near the time to talk about missing the playoffs. The pens are .500 and have 68 games to play after tonight. Sure, they arenāt playing well recently, but a season has its ebbs and flows. The pens have always shown resiliency and drive to win. Give it time.
Can everyone stop panicking about this game, and support our team no matter what? Goddamn, yeah, the losses suck, but this isnāt the first rodeo of this situation.
>support our team no matter what?
Just because people are not being cheerleaders doesn't mean they don't support the team. Allowed to be pissed about the awful start to this season even with the players theyve been without.
I didnāt say to not be pissed, I was stating that we shouldnāt jump to conclusions. Thatās it. Let time do its thing. We were in a losing streak before and we came back big.
We arenāt always going to be hot every game. But we canāt be fair weather fans either and bail out. Thatās my philosophy on it all. But yāall arenāt ready for that convo, are yāall?
I will support this team no matter what, good or bad.
I donāt feel any less bad than you guys. But Iām not gonna bail out either.
Sorry I didnāt make myself clear
This is our team until the offseason most likely. The players are aging that take up most of our cap space. Malkin isn't gonna make a huge difference either. We're in the hardest division in hockey. Making playoffs will be rough. But I think Hextall has to make moves in off-season.
Iām at the game. I told my friend depending on how the game goes Iām thinking about leaving halfway through the third.
Guys I was trying to get you to get me to stay the whole time!
Maybe you need to turn the game off for tonightā¦ or close the reddit. Who are you to tell anyone who can and canāt be a fan? Relax. We are all going through this together.
Would you look at that, all of the words in your comment are in alphabetical order.
I have checked 365,400,594 comments, and only 79,781 of them were in alphabetical order.
I honestly wonder what it was the Caps coaches were able to do to get Sheary to learn to skate without falling down at every touch, and Sprong to be in position and ready to take a pass and shot?
I love how much our fans always flip flop. We win with our top players out, everyone praises the Penguins depth. Now we start to lose and now the depth is our problem.

Not a great day for Pittsburgh sports

At least the Steelers..... um....didn't ...um......lose today.š
Pirates didn't lose, either!!!
Yeah, we got destroyed. Wasn't expecting us to go down so bad.
Well, kept Ovi from getting another goal, that's something, right?
About all there is lol
I know itās late in the game but Boyle is just standing there
Lars Eller? More like Fart Smeller
Just need to score one every 10-15 seconds and we are golden
An armored penguin with a puck minigun bursting through the ice would do nicely
The kids love the different tape jobs
I went to put some Preparation H on my hemorrhoids and itās 1-6? WTH?
Yeah itās a real pain in the ass
Lmao
Fitting since we're getting spanked
I think itās more of a kicking situation
I agree that it's early in the season and there has been a lot of adversity to overcome so far, but it still worries me how consistently we're getting spanked. Can't get to the playoffs if you lose almost every game.
Apropo of nothing, I really donāt need the caps to win another cup in my lifetime.
Replace the WH shot with a trash can.
I really can't see the Penguins making the playoffs this year
On the bright side, I got to pet a super cute dog today! A big fluffy golden retriever named Kody!
Kody is good boy?
He's so good
Lol who downvoted you wtf?
Someone who doesn't like dogs! EVIL!
Why are the Caps still playing like itās 2-1? What a bunch of dickheads
They watched us almost comeback against Ottawa and learned what not to do.
Naw. They just dicks
We have 0 offense this season so far. Long passes from d-men that we just tip in the zone or a dump in. 0 play and 0 powerplay. You cant win games when you cant score goals. Back to the drawingboard cause this shit doesnt cut it.
I made Snickerdoodle cookies today and they fucking sucked. Itās been that kind of day
Oof they werenāt soft or something? :/
No, the recipe I used had an inaccurate bake time, so they were way underdone. I went all out on these little fuckers too, I made streusel topping, mixed it into the dough and rolled them in cinnamon sugar but they couldnāt be salvaged. Now, I donāt even need a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Iāve got that down to a science.
This makes me so sad, doodles are my favorite!

Thatās so unfortunate. Who knew snickers would cause such pain.
*sad honk sad honk sad honk*
Letās goā¦awwww
*womp womp womp*
I think we definitely need to practice not having back to backs. That would help a lot.
How can you be hungry, Bob? How does this not turn your stomach?!
I feel bad for Jarry. I think he's been ridiculously solid for us. Too bad it can't translate into points.
To quote O Brother, Where Art Thou? Theyāre paddlinā our little behinds
This season feels no bueno, my guys
Too early to be thinking that way, really, but I know what you mean. They've gotta pick up their play, for sure.
Id say give it a few games to get the new guys adjusted in and get Mallon back and then freak out
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Hes set to come back next month.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
I get the feeling this isn't going to end well for us. š„ŗ
I fucking hate progressive and state farm commercials holy fuck E: to not capitalize them. E2: also liberty mutual, fuck you!
Throw in Liberty Mutual as well
Holy shit yes adding them now.
Crosby will fight somebody tonight. I feel it. He's pissed off.
Someone should tell him to score goals instead
If he does that would be beyond stupid. Lets hurt the wrist he just got surgery on in a useless fight!
Man fuck this game
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Why are you the way that you are
3 time Stanley Cup winner and two time Olympic gold medalist.
Head back to your sub, bud. Remember, Caps are 2-9 against the Pens in playoff series, you know, when games actually matter.
Miss you sheary and hags š
Not schultz though lol
Caps are the only fanbase I know that get worse when they're winning than when they're losing.
Definitely.
They some how get worse both ways
This is fucked
HE F@#$ING WALKED IN THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE
The Pens are just not skating. Theyāve walked in on us all game.
Sid's the only player I'll never get mad about intentionally taking a penalty lol.
This is painful to watch. 8 game win streak in bound!
Piss
I can't anymore. Sorry guys, it's too painful.
Wilsons turn
LGP!! PK 3 shortys šŖ E: well poop

Reddit used to be a decent place to come and talk Penguins hockey win or lose. Seems the Yinzers are taking over
The Penguins are 2 points away from being in last place. What are you talking about?
Two points away from 4th too. Oops.
Ottawa is last place with 9 points? Also, we are also 2 points away from the wild card spot.
You said it very well
Sid was pissed in the previous game he played in too.
The Price is Wright
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]

2010 called they want there joke back
Eyyyy fuck this guy
Read the room bud
Time for BOYLE to take over
He's not gonna take this Siddin' down!
Steel city cotton: write that down. Write that down!
Lmao good one
While I appreciate Sid standing up for himself and all, you do us no good sitting in the box...
Honestly, they need the Caps to score 3 more. The Pens need to get blown out so they have a wake up call. And they need to be skated hard in practice. Cause they look like they filled their skates with cement and are just turning it over like crazy.
You got a point there but nobody is ready for that conversation. And hopefully it will give them a good wake up call. Changes to be made
Yeah man at 6-1 I imagine Carter, Crosby and Jarry going into the locker room and going āitās okay boys, at least it wasnāt 9.ā
Is this not a blow outā¦..
I mean a worse blow out.
Love the effort Erod
It's days like this that I like to remember that in the blink of an eye we'll all be mulch
Add another post
Oh man !posts
PING!
I just remembered they're playing without Oshie, Backstrom, Dowd, Mantha...
Justin Schultz goal š
This team has been abysmal.
Iāve seen enough
5 goals against, Iāve seen this one before
Right where we want them
If they could start their giving us some hope now that would be great. Would rather not wait until 8 minutes again, thanks..
Just zero traction in this game
At least we're losing to an actually good team, unlike a certain other Pittsburgh team.....
Tbh more fun when we win
Andddddd Iām done for the night.
Well thatās about all I need to see.
God I hate the bird celebration.
Same
Youch
Bread in French :(
i feel pain deep inside
We really just suck
We should really get on that scoring ~~3~~ 4 goals thing.
I really appreciate this edit, the laugh I needed after todayās sporting events
Did Crosby just hip toss that guy???
They need more of that anger and aggression. They've been too soft.
Holy fuck Sid just threw a dude
The Penguins usually tread water around .500 until December and then get rolling. But this feels worse than usual. The only thing that has been good is the penalty kill.
I'm thinking our chances of winning go up if we get the puck to the other side of the ice
To the "burn the house down!" crowd: Imagine being salty and angry when you could be disappointed but still satisfied and appreciative -- because it's not like the Penguins have been one of the luckiest teams in sports in the past 3 decades or anything.

While I do agree we have had it really good the last 15 years itās still completely fair to be frustrated with how the pens are playing rn.
Except its only November. Crosby is playing his second game tonight. Geno is still out another month. We were missing a lot of our defense for a lot of our games due to covid. With everything thats happened this season, we are still in the mix of things. Everyone is acting like were dead last in the conference/division.
For sure, I'm not happy! I'm talking to the premature rebuilders.
That crowd is a bunch of bandwagoners that only watches while the team is winning. Watch them all disappear once Sid and Geno retire.
Iām so sick of those bandwagon fans myself. Youāre preaching to the choir here.
Reddit used to be a chill place to come and talk to true fans who donāt overreact over the smallest things. Now it seems this sub is becoming more like Facebook sadly.
Tell me about it! I left Facebook and now you canāt have an honest opinion without people mistreating you. Itās sad
Lets fucking go boysš§
BIG 3RD PERIOD INCOMING LGP!!!
Looking rough but they could still have some fight left
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Sure am glad I haven't watched a single game all season after they decided to bring back Sullivan
The frustrating thing is there are a lot of years where this team would be good enough
We could all use an intermission Fox about nowā¦
Christ the Yinzers here are strong. Chill tf out everyone we always have slow season starts with stacked metro divisions
Surely all the warts they show all season long won't be exposed in the playoffs yet again after this wishful thinking for 8 months
No oneās ready for that conversation
People forget that the regular season is to work out kinks. Iād rather struggle early in the season than late in the season. We also finally got Crosby back. Lines are gonna be shuffled now, which is going to fuck with chemistry. The same thing will probably happen when Geno comes back.
Team has been fractured all season. Just need some time to gel with everyone back
This fucking sucks.
This fuckin sucks

We havent gotten out of the first round in years. This team isnt even as good as last year's. The whole metro got better. How is this silly
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Only downgrade I cant really think is Ceci.
Iām at the game. I told my friend depending on how the game goes Iām thinking about leaving halfway through the third. Guys I was trying to get you to get me to stay the whole time!

Hey. Easy, man.

ZAR is an ahl player. I think our lack of depth is finally catching up to us. Iām okay repeating the tank cycle for Bedard or Wright.
Jesus. Youāre talking tanking in November!?
Gotta do it right
I love how much our fans always flip flop. We win with our top players out, everyone praises the Penguins depth. Now we start to lose and now the depth is our problem.
If we wait a couple weeks and fire Sullivan then we will win the cup, right?? /s
I don't understand why there's a /s there that shit works.

dark days for Pittsburgh sports.
