What fans said

  • “This is the Worst Time For Malkin to Get a Game Misconduct or Suspended. Geno is Penguins royalty, but what he just did it's inexcusable!”

    u/MediumAd8799▲ 248frustration

  • “1-9 in Shootouts.... Every fucking point matters! Between the shootouts and the blown multi-goal leads in December, the Penguins have just continued hemorrhaging points to make it harder for them to get into the playoffs.”

    u/MediumAd8799▲ 99despair

  • “5 games is fully deserved but how come Ranatanen got zero games for boarding Romanov and sending him to LTIR for 6 months and ending his season? How come Wilson head shots guy's every night and doesn't even have a hearing? No consistency man.”
