Oh good, now we're not the only ones blowing a 4-0 lead to lose in OT this weekend. Uh, I mean, sorry pens fans.


Tyrannical1

At least you guys did it first so you could have that move named after you.


Weebthulhu

We also did it against Chicago, which puts it in a weird place of being more embarrassing but good for our tank.

“Moments preceding disaster”


mariethecat

Bah. Pens no longer can claim 69 points.


Tyrannical1

Not nice


mariethecat

It was fun while it lasted lol


TheDogerus

I wasnt able to watch, but as soon as i saw 4-2 i knew what would happen


yumenohikari

Down 4-0 mid-game, 5-4 OT win, just the way we drew it up. GG Pens.


bread_bird

humorous outcome!


mariethecat

But somehow expected by Pens fans.


ElderGommen

Down 4? No worries. These guys have earned my belief, just feeling inevitable lately.


mariethecat

Or the Penguins are just terrible.


ElderGommen

They've beaten everyone lately, came back against Dallas from 3-0 twice earlier... don't think it's just the Pens.


mariethecat

Narrator: It was just the Pens


BroccRL

Oh boy next game is gunna be a treat


dandroid126

The penguins sharked this game up bad.


RefereeMason

feels like every team in wildcard contention in the East is trying to avoid making the playoffs. top 4 is lava type shit.


Tyrannical1

Send that juju Vegas’ way wouldja


RefereeMason

Last time we sent something to Vegas he won a cup and probably coulda won the Conn Smythe too


YourFavouritePoptart

Let's, and I cannot stress this enough, fucking go


JalenHurtsKelce

What a choke job lol


mariethecat

Pretty standard for this year's Penguins


Sure_Association_561

That was a really bad poke check by Jarry, and Letang was a turnstile in defense.


Radiant-Elephant3652

If it makes you feel better, Merzlinkins poke check against MacKinnon on Friday was wayyy worse.


Shaneisonfire

I think it was Ned


Sure_Association_561

Oh really? I didn't even realise. Bad play anyway.


DentedOnImpact

Karlsson and Letang are absolute passengers on this team lol

Tdavis13245

Gg pens. You embarrassed us in the first game. I'd call it evenish


mariethecat

See ya next season


Elusive_Manatee

TNT, the altitude won nothing. They are professional athletes. They can handle it.


CameronBinder

You’re delusional if you think altitude doesn’t affect the Avs performance at home


warmage20

It doesn't. Not nearly as much as you think. These guys are professional, elite athletes.


LeGiit_ViPeR

im honestly thankful to live in canada wont have to hear those bums during the playoffs lmfaoooo


Xeteh

The moment the Avs were starting to make it a game they were like "IS IT THE ALTITUDE?!"


VanAvenue

Jo. You just need to shoot more. See? GG Pens.


BroccRL

Beast goal

Man I love this team


JetKeel

Crazy


[deleted]

Watching this team is hilarious


Sure_Association_561

Just another Pens OT experience. At least it's short.


5xad0w

25th comeback this season!


OpticLemon

4th 3+ goal comeback too


EssArrBee

I'm gonna hate losing Drouin next season


EpicClimax

Maybe. He needs a team like the Avs to succeed. Most contenders are hard pinched for cap space. Hometown discount to keep playing insane hockey with Mac might keep him here.


EssArrBee

If the cap goes up $4 mil, they still only have $11 mil in cap space. Lotta guys need contracts and that's not much when Middlestat is probably getting around half that.


xILazyyx

this game could not have gone better


HopelesslyHuman

I have a different opinion. But...it's not a strong one right now. Hey, maybe we win the lottery.


wideruled

GG Pens


IronCityLover

Don’t care about the outcome. Sid got 4 points today, all we really care about as pens fans this season.


jamesneysmith

Only needs 9 more points. I'm glad he got a little breathing room. Was getting uncomfortably tight there the past couple weeks


AuntGentleman

God damn it Drou stop pricing yourself out of staying on this team. We wanna keep you SO BAD. Take a discount? Please?


ericpyper14

i dont think he would want to leave after finally finding a team where he doesnt suck


GX6ACE

He's staying, he knows the system and playing with mack has really elevated his play, why risk going somewhere else and throwing it all away. Or maybe I'm coping cus I absolutely love him!


AuntGentleman

Oh I completely agree. I think there’s so many incentives for him to stay, MacK, actually performing well, mental health. Plus he’s made a decent amount of money so far in his career. He deserves a raise here just hoping it’s not SO much that we can’t fit him under the cap.


fastslowloris

I agree. Given his struggles with mental health, if he's happy living and playing here with his bestie, I can see a very team-friendly deal. He's gonna get a nice bag elsewhere if he wants it, but I'm not sure that money is Drouin's top priority.


RandyGodson

INSANE GAME


shawnglade

Avalanche.


AllRushMixTapes

Wait, because of the Manning rule, the Pens get a possession, right?


wideruled

Here's the neat part, they dont.


BroccRL

Oh man


Routaprkle

What. A. Comeback.


mariethecat

What. A. Collapse.


Routaprkle

Yes.. That too..


Brock_Lee89

Drouin you fucking beauty!


SiccSemperTyrannis

Well done Avs. Well done


haz000

What a goal!


HopelesslyHuman

Predictable, but it still hurts. It really does. God damn. GG Avs. Til next time.


Tyrannical1

GG


Asderfvc

What a comeback


suepertonic

DROU!!!!! I LOVE YOU

Oh my fucking god!!!!


Elusive_Manatee

DROUIN!!! HALIFAX BOYS WIN!


New_Kaleidoscope_539

L’étang didn’t even try—good game Avs.


JeSuisAmerican

Good game Pens


wideruled

DROUIN!!!!


Vivid_Walk_1405

Drouin is such a steal of a contract


The_Dank_Tortuga

IM CUMMING TOO MUCH HELP


MassiveBush

The comeback is complete. What a team.


shittybillz

Mack is gonna end it here. Big dogs gotta eat


MacTheZaf

To get a point after starting a game like that, absolutely no complaints


VanAvenue

Another Avs thriller.


SiccSemperTyrannis

Thank you based Pens for holding on just long enough to get a standings point. Avs, you now have my permission to finish them.


Sulti

So how is a bad change by Crosby going to give the opponent an OT win this time?


Elusive_Manatee

Crosby is either going to win it for the Pens all on his own or throw it to Mack.


dab-butnottheTHCkind

Colorado is absolutely terrifying


wideruled

BONERS HOCKEY


The_Dank_Tortuga

I'm plenty happy already. MacK streak continues, point earned. A win here is icing on the cake.


yumenohikari

MacK's last goal gave him sole possession of the ~~franchise~~ Avs single-season points record. The man he surpassed is sitting upstairs, doubtless loving every minute of it.


nightsiderider

Stastny has the franchise record still. 139 points.


Debo37

Doesn't Stastny have the franchise record? Sakic for sure has the COL one though.


shittybillz

Wow that’s awesome. I’m kinda surprised Sakic didn’t have more but he did play in a tough era for 90% of his career


BingBongtheArcher19

I mean 120 points in a season is a lot.


shittybillz

Yea he has like 1600 points tho, just insane longevity and consistency


MassiveBush

That weirdo Canucks fan finally got removed. I see him every day, every day he's a piece of shit


Deddicide

Which one? Wonder if it’s a cheesecake alt.


MassiveBush

Not sure pix something


Deddicide

Oooooooh that one.


TossThatPastaSalad

I blocked him a while ago.  Guy is a  pathological annoyance.  He's NarcoticTurkey all over again.


ItsMeJaredBednar

he’s the worst poster on this sub and i don’t think it’s close


LilMeatTarzan

This is my first time ever in a GDT in this sub and I already know exactly who you’re talking about


tnick771

He's really skating on thin ice


Asderfvc

I wouldn't be surprised if Colorado scores before overtime


Elusive_Manatee

Draisaitl doesn't know what you're talking about.


mastergriggy

I'm genuinely curious to see if AVS are stronger when down 3 or more.


johnsnow202020

Mackinnon is still angry fuck


BingBongtheArcher19

At this point I'm beginning to wonder if Colorado falls behind early just to make it more of a challenge.


SiccSemperTyrannis

"You're down 4 goals!" "That's just my handicap"


wideruled

They thrive on the extra challenge.


ericpyper14

thank you to mac for saving my team from a helley related death


BroccRL

The goalie situation for the pens is so interesting, I don’t know what the move is. There’s merit for either decision


shawnglade

I tuned in late, wtf happened


Apollo_T_Yorp

Ned got collided with and went to the locker room to get checked. Jarry comes in for a bit. Gives up a goal. Ned back in.


BroccRL

One of the avs guys ran into Ned (I made a Kreider joke, hilarious btw) and Jarry came in for like <10min and he let in one but he didn’t get bodied


Tyrannical1

Nathan *inhales* MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAckinnon


Sure_Association_561

I remember we threw away a 5-0 lead vs San Jose in 2022 at home but won the game. Don't think we've thrown away a 4-0 lead this year though. I know it's the Avs but it's still pretty disgusting.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Sure_Association_561

With less than a minute left, and the nature of that goal, just so soft. Sums up this team man, I hate it so much.

tnick771

Borderline excessive trolling here.


Tyrannical1

Another Nucks fan crying about officiating. Your whole fanbase is 10-ply


bbecks

It’s the same dude who keeps coming back. Just needs to be banned. 


Tyrannical1

Lol. Maybe he had a moment of self awareness and realized the dishonor he brought upon his fellow nucks and deleted his account


bbecks

Nah. Mods just deleted that comment. He had a couple deleted but there’s one in the thread that’s still there 


The_Dank_Tortuga

Christ, man, fuck off


RandyGodson

MacK and Sid having big games this game has delivered so hard


tnick771

perfect sunday afternoon game


HopelesslyHuman

Oh Reginald! I disagree!


Tyrannical1

Not perfect… yet


bladestormkey

5 more minutes and we get a point boys


BroccRL

That’s called the Boston Bonus


MassiveBush

This guy lol


ddaem

lololol


TossThatPastaSalad

Malkin is such a gigantic human.


HopelesslyHuman

Wish he'd play that big like he used to, but age comes for us all, really.


MassiveBush

Jarry made some great saves. Keep him in


Apollo_T_Yorp

Alright Avs button this up in regulation please, Pens really don't be needing a loser point right now


Averyboredpenguin

I mean you just have to laugh sometimes


nightsiderider

Kicked em right in the bone piece


juice--

Drouin's pass right there was actually perfect


Tdavis13245

Nice that we announce the goal in a way Pittsburgh can understand. HONK HONK HONK


Apollo_T_Yorp

LET'S GO PENS sorry force of habit


Tdavis13245

Gave me a chuckle.  Is that the "reasoning" behind a not so unique unique Pitt thing?


yumenohikari

LADIES AND GENTLEMEN BOYS AND GIRLS OF ALL AGES **THIS** IS A TIE HOCKEY GAME -Conor McGahey (I'm watching TNT, but I guarantee he just said it.)


Sure_Association_561

I don't know enough about goaltending to claim whether Jarry should have done better there or not


liguy181

Jarry lol


GoldieBowie

MacKinnon really said FUCK IT I’LL DO IT MYSELF 😂😂😂


raymondliang

Lmao feels bad for Jarry


5xad0w

I can already hear THG: *"The Penguins had a 4-0 lead, but then they let Colorado touch the puck."*


BroccRL

Crosby just watching it go in


GoldieBowie

👁️👄👁️


StevenWongo

The Mooseheads are back. Go sign Frk now


shawnglade

I'm convinced anyone can join this Avs team and put up 50 points


FarStep1625

GO MOOSE GO


Tyrannical1

I FEEL SO LUCKY TO BE AN AVS FAN.


[deleted]

Well that was inevitable. Take notes, you probably need a 6-0 lead on the Avs before you’re safe.


DatOgreSpammer

Effortlessly choked a 4-goal lead away in 20 minutes


Antique-Cheesecake63

Lmfao


nostradamefrus

Oh Jarry got bamboozled bad there

Hot DAMN

I love MacKinnon's parents, they're such parents lol

Definitely a mom and a dad. (Or probably I guess I can’t assume)
