Whelp, it's a great thing this GDT is empty today, as the Pens are getting their collective asses beat.
And Kunitz can go to hell. These bull**** penalties have cost them direly and if he does this in the playoffs I may lose my mind.
4-0 Det after a horrendous turnover by Sutsy....
What was a small victory turned into no goal after scrum in blue paint results in goalie "unable to play puck". Waived off.
Pens can't get a bounce.
Pens buzz on the continued PP and Letang heads to the dressing room for a misconduct + game misconduct for mother****ing the ref.
So glad i didn't blog today. Pens look like ****.

I understand thing didn't go their way from the onset, but you have to remain composed.
Pens getting a gift PP
Downie draws a penalty then retaliates and takes one himself.
It's been that kind of day folks. Pens generate 2 offensive turnover and cycle the zone with several shots for about a minute or so with no result; Detroit exits the zone and scores off of a shattered stick and Pens skate, 5-0 Detroit.
All you can do at this point is laugh, it's been that kind of day...

Yep, and what happened in that series? The Penguins were down 3-0 and eventually lost.
This team lacks real leadership and has for years. Until they mature they'll be easy pickings. They've been exposed and everyone knows it.
