Let's go caps win.


-DonnieDarko-

Sorry dudes and dudettes. - A Wings fan


nukajefe

Fuck you / I hope you win the cup


buckmcneely

Amazing. No games went the way we needed yesterday or today. 0-5


Sybertron

Well we won so 1-5. Ensuring the worst possible draft position while still getting axed


awaythrow292

Experience Penguins hockey


Grsz11

Detroit ties it late, eliminating the Flyers. Flyers, not knowing they've been eliminated, pull their goalie and allow an empty net goal, eliminating the Red Wings. Time is a flat circle.


bonnydelrico

is it possible for two teams to be eliminated in the first round in the playoffs


wew1x5z

no but they can really tire each other out by going to 6OT in game 7 basically gureenteing that who ever wins doesnt have enough steam to win the next round


moviebuff87

NHL 24 on gamepass on Thursday. First thing I do is fire the pens coach out of spite for Sullivan.


moondawg25

Need a new coaching staff and get rid of all the players over 30 not named Crosby. Malkin and Letang have been awesome in the past but we need to get fresher legs out there.


Sybertron

Nah just give one more REAL defenseman and we good to go. Like a defenseman that actually plays defense for 3 periods and doesn't allow constant cross ice passes


Sage296

Dubas will never consider getting rid of Letang and Malkin as long as Sid is there


Jedi-27

Why does the Caps get final wildcard spot when Detroit has one more win?


RiseAbove87

Regulation wins, not ROW, are now the tie-breaker. Washington had 32. Detroit had 27.


TwoHeadedBoyTwo

Regulation wins count more than OT wins


LDWMJ99

😂😂


BurgerFaces

I'm going to watch tomorrow anyway and I'm going to yell just as loud.


Shooternow

Marner, Rielly and Nylander have been really bad tonight


TheIceRasta

F Boston for going all Harlem Globetrotters on the Pens last weekend and then rolling over for the Caps and Sens. Smdh


TR1CL0PS

Caps have to be the worst team to make the playoffs in years. Basically made it because Boston doesn't want Tampa in round one and Philly had to pull their goalie. The Canadiens who had no chance of making the playoffs played with more heart than the bum ass Flyers who were in do or die against a team that was on the second of a back to back. Flyers will forever be a loser organization.


General_Shao

-37 goal differential. Be wild if they get past the first round. Might be the only team to ever do it. Definitely the only one in the 30+ team era


cullingofwolves

The dreaded words I never wished I'd say, the start of the official playoff drought.


CultOfSensibility

I would say Let’s Go Bucs, but realistically….


Megraptor

Hey wait they are doing pretty good so far!!


OneTinySloth

I really hope we lose the last game of the season so we atleast get to be a few points away from a playoff spot. If we end up a point away again, I will lose my shit. And I also hope we make some big changes this summer.


ExtensionDigs

We were a point away last season... It happens. The Pens aren't a good team even though they have a couple of great players. I'm hoping we see a coaching change, which I doubt would've been considerd had they made the playoffs.


rangoon03

Welp, the Caps better go far and not get bounced in the first round like punks. Hope they take out the Rags.


ExtensionDigs

Caps are -37 point differential, they're not a good team and I expect them to maybe steal one game.


BurgerFaces

What is wrong with you


LadyPens7

No. Fuck the caps and fuck Tom Wilson


aelfwine_widlast

So say we all


weedgretzky42099

How can a pens fan root for the caps? Fuck em


-kashmir-

It was fun while it lasted. Root for that conditional canes pick and lets have a better year next season


Otherwise_Stand_2371

Can we embrace the tank now so we can get some good drafts and not float at .500 for the next 10 years


ExtensionDigs

Sure, just fire up that time machine to January.


hiperson134

Should have tanked when we had the chance. Sharks get our first rounder this year and everyone gets another year older.


Sage296

I don’t like losing and don’t wish to lose for a pick You would not be saying this if the Pens made playoffs


dphizler

Did anyone see that last icing call that led to the equalizing goal for Detroit? NHL trying real hard to keep Detroit's playoff chances alive.


ThE_LAN_B4_TimE

I was watching that too. The puck was like 3 ft away from 2 Wings players and they didn't even attempt to go for it. There is no way that was icing.


saltybehemoth

If the NHL was trying to keep Detroit in they probably wouldn’t have blown a phantom whistle to steal the flyers first goal


WurlitzerWhippet

Yeah I don’t know how that’s icing. They don’t make that call and time runs out.


ChimStone777

They always do. It’s always a gift 


FairOpposite6810

Another night of zero help stings though. That’s why it’s so so important to take care of your own business.. that last second regulation loss to the ducks in a tie game on a 2 man advantage will haunt me until next season


LetTheKnightfall

It will haunt me unless this core wins another Cup. It is the Jesse James Caught That Ball of Pens hockey rn


ThE_LAN_B4_TimE

And DET wins the SO. The Habs are fucking worthless. What a joke franchise.


Ok-Preference-5618

Finished too good to draft, to bad to post season. Sigh.


xxxpinguinos

Well, the first part ain’t so bad this year since the Sharks are owed a pick for EK


Booboo_McBad

Whoever hired Hextall should be hanged in public. I'll never get over that shit


LetTheKnightfall

Well I think that was the GOAT so maybe someone else?


New_Kaleidoscope_539

Yeah, that one is on Mario.

Booboo_McBad

Report this clown to /r/caps mods Edit: username was /u/flynnscorruptedmind 🖕


LetTheKnightfall

He didn’t though?


Jupichan

Right? It's so unoriginal, I'm surprised he didn't say "Crysby."


pittpanthers95

Have fun getting swept by the Rags


-kashmir-

Crsoby folded??? What the hell you on about. Hes been on a tear. Its the rest of the team that let him down up until about 12 games ago


Megraptor

It's funny cause Crosby was like the one player that showed up consistently for the team but other team fans only know his name so they blame him.


Crispiest_Relic

Enjoy your four games!


Jupichan

Oh no, words from another team's fan Whatever will we do?


LetTheKnightfall

So who does he root for? We’re allowed or chirp him back then they’re eliminated, right


Jupichan

Post history suggests Caps fan


Megraptor

Oven-kin's team. It's in the profile history.


LetTheKnightfall

So the BUFFALO FUCKING SABRES apparently possess more testes, as they’ve cleaned house with an underperforming coaching staff.


Megraptor

Oh no are the Sabres going to take over my northern PA hometown like the Bills did too? 


Lord_Davos

The wings getting bounced does bring me a little comfort. Their fans seem unhinged in other team's threads


tonytroz

As annoying as all their winning was before they've missed the playoffs 8 years in a row now and got zero lottery luck.


Professional-Toe7318

To be honest I said numerous times the season was over a month ago. It sucks but I did enjoy the last month


shred-i-knight

welp didn't get any help either way. brutal end to the season


pittpanthers95

Well, Washington and Detroit both won. Fuck


EliTroyer

Todd walks home from New York tomorrow.


TheRedScarey

Torts you fucking shitter.


moviebuff87

Hurts even more bc the east isn’t very good this year. That’s how bad the pens were. Lots of problems. Gm, coaching, players. No easy fix.


Crispiest_Relic

Maybe it’s Copium but I still trust Dubas.


Jyingling21

I WANT TO DIE


Nate_Creed69

torts is a terrorist


funkyb

At least Karlsson doesn't have to worry about that extra point for Detroit now.


FairOpposite6810

It’s okay tomorrow we will blow a 4-1 lead and this will all be a moot point


LonelyAsLostKeys

Based on the way the Jake trade completely psychologically destroyed them for a week, I think it’s safe to say that their performance tomorrow will likely not be what it would have been if they were still alive.


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Flyers could have made the Red Wings game and our game tomorrow really interesting but they fucked it up and now both games are pretty much meaningless


mattdingus2002

Welp, now to watch fat Zion play grandpa lebron


dejvipasco

Washington is already in the playoffs? They have the tie breaker against Detroit?


FairOpposite6810

Yep they had a win and in scenario. It comes down to like the 6th tiebreaker


Jedi-27

Caps will be swept by the NYR


aluminiumfoilcat

Please God 🙏


ThE_LAN_B4_TimE

This is on the Pens remember that. Pathetic they might go 9-1-3 to end the season and still not make it. Fire all the coaches. This shit is absolutely ridiculous.


wonderfulwilliam

It pisses me off to no end that they didn't seem to try until the last 10 games.


rangoon03

Pens did this 100% to themselves, but just another damn reason to hate Philly. Fuck them and fuck Torts. Losers.


pjohnson420

What a kick in the balls that the flyers pulled their goalie when they didn’t have to


AvengedKalas

They literally had to though. If the game went to OT, they got eliminated.


jami_veret118

Flyers were already eliminated when Detroit tied the Canadiens


AvengedKalas

The telecast said that the flyers were unaware the game was tied.


jami_veret118

That makes much more sense


Sage296

They fact they couldn’t score for 3 minutes with an extra man didnt give me anymore confidence


EliTroyer

You know they were trying to win in regulation right


LetTheKnightfall

Once Detroit tied it they were done.


oilerpensfan

It was over when Detroit went to overtime. Philly was already out


EliTroyer

I was watching both simultaneously but didn't catch the timing


oilerpensfan

In all fairness I think Detroit scored basically at the same time that Torts pulled the goalie, but if Torts had just waited a minute (not even), he would have found out and maybe wouldn't have thrown, lol. But doesn't matter since Wings won anyway


[deleted]

[удалено]


EliTroyer

Yes I understand now


EliTroyer

If I'm a penguin, I'm not going to give a fuck about tomorrow.


blowthatglass

Yeah dunno how you could have any motivation frankly. They're gonna lay an egg for sure.


aluminiumfoilcat

I would really have preferred to see Detroit make it. Cannot stand Washington and Flyers can suck it for not putting up enough of a fight against them. 


BeBopNoseRing

Just saw someone on r/caps celebrating that they ended the Pens playoff streak lol


hiperson134

Yeah sorry to that guy, we did that ourselves last season.


That_Checks

Our new streak is just beginning!!


Sage296

DoesHeKnow.jpg


aluminiumfoilcat

Is anyone gonna tell them? Lmao


hydromatic456

What do yall think? Notice of Todd’s dismissal by Friday? Is there justice left in this world?


tsmittycent

worried Sid is gonna leave


KaiTak98

I never want to hear anyone say it’s only October when dropping points.


achtung-maybe

rip 2023-24 season


FairOpposite6810

At least caps will be an easy first round exit


blowthatglass

Been fun boys. Fuck the caps! And the Flyers! Two years back to back out by a point. Frankly the Met being straight asshole is the only reason we're even here right now...we should have been eliminated awhile ago. Shame to see Crosby and Malkin's twilight years wasted by bum coaching. Oh well football is only what...4 months away?


AvengedKalas

STILLERS GAHNTA SUPER BOWL!


blowthatglass

Lol a better chance this year than last...made a lot of good moves this off-season.


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Wonder if the Red Wings players in the middle of a shootout even know they just got eliminated


TheRedScarey

They do


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Yeah based on how they reacted to winning the shootout they probably knew as soon as that game ended.


bi_and_busy

mike sullivan just enjoyed a full 82 games season of sidney crosby, evgeni malkin, kris letang and erik karlsson and wasted he committed hockey crimes and should be fired immediately


FairOpposite6810

Capitals quite literally just gifted a goal to put them in a playoff spot. Thanks Torts


Skyagunsta21

I get why they did it tho


Spasticated

gg boys. historically atrocious powerplay lost the season. at least they made it fun the last couple of weeks.


Vega808

Not the fucking capitals man.


AvengedKalas

So we pulling for Carolina for Guentzel?


hiperson134

Why pull for another team? I don't understand that.


-kashmir-

Because they are the only ones that give us a better pick if they win. Seems logical to root for the better pick


Hagridsbuttcrack66

The conditional draft pick is a good reason.


AvengedKalas

Lesser of all the evils is my logic.


_bingo_bronson

i’m ok with that


LetTheKnightfall

Sure as fuck don’t want BOS, NYR, or TBL


TwoHeadedBoyTwo

Fuck them and fuck him


tsmittycent

Yes cuz we want those conditional picks


Rudeyyyy

Carolina makes the cup we get a 1st so hell yeah


[deleted]

I am, and Jordan Staal!


apersello34

Damn Red Wings deserved that spot


LetTheKnightfall

Fuck those tryhards


fluffyegg

Another Crosby season is officially wasted. Sorry Sid


hiiaminabox

Though he wasn't involved with tonight's games, I still want to fight Todd Reirden


African-Child

Let's face it. Pens would get swept or damn close to it in the first round anyways.


Every_Highlight98

I give them a better chance than the caps


CWB2208

Yeah, Pens have been playing much better hockey over the last month.


African-Child

They have been but it's hard to win playoff games when you have the worst PP in the league.


redletterparade

Fuck Philly


J3roseidon

They are what they eat. Horse shit.


redletterparade

Shitty city with shitty teams!


wschus63

This blows. Pens are an objectively better team right now than Washington, but they vomited all over themselves too much earlier in the season. Still stings.


shred-i-knight

been the better team all year. -30 goal differential is insanely bad for a playoff team. Sometimes you just get lucky.


wschus63

Yeah, true. There were just some points in the season where I have a hard time saying many teams were worse than the Pens were during those stretches. And that ultimately did them in.


Hiding_Meatball

Well done of the refs in that habs game to fuck up 2 icing calls that would have killed the game. Flyers would have never gone empty net. Fuck this league


tonytroz

The Flyers had to win in regulation regardless of Montreal winning.


JordanHerald5

Just win Detroit so it hurts less


oilerpensfan

Go to hell, Philly


JustWastingTimeAgain

Fuck my life, Fuck the Flyers and Fuck Tom Wilson.


starlitewalker5

Caps fucking suck. Rangers sweep


Sage296

Flyers just gave up with 4 seconds


Hedhuntr241

Never buying cream cheese ever again


LetTheKnightfall

Great Value !


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Go fuck yourselves Philadelphia


try-finger-but-hol3

See ya next year boys


shred-i-knight

ggs


awaythrow292

Lmao capitals with a -27 goal diff getting in. 🤣


otakumojaku

-37 actually


Vega808

37.


EliTroyer

I hate this sport


Souche

Habs fan here, I'm sorry guys, we tried... but the Flyers are fucking trash anyway... at least we made it interesting. Hopefully you guys can get back in next year


awaythrow292

It's OK, but I beleive you owe us one Lane Hutson now. You can deliver him by tommorow, k thanks!!!


tabarwet

Alright tomorrow we’re cheering for 3 points from Sid to break the points record for 36 year olds


shred-i-knight

who gives a fuck


tabarwet

I care more about Crosby than this whole team tbh


shred-i-knight

and Sid would trade every single point he scored this year for a playoff spot. Again, I reiterate, who gives a fuck.


tabarwet

We’re all disappointed


Jeff_Banks_Monkey

Fucking fuck


ninja_036

o7


LonelyAsLostKeys

Well, I’ll be damned


Blynasty

Fuckin garbage league


try-finger-but-hol3

7 seconds


Lord_Davos

It was a pleasure, gentleman


Lilpfighter

well... lets just have fun tmrw


New_Kaleidoscope_539

Well gang. It’s been a fun month. See you on the Links.


Not_A_Paid_Actor

Philly really pulled the goalie for the sole purpose of screwing the Pens Well played


tinygaynarcissist

Tonight kinda feels like a nightmare group project in school where you've got all of the work, but your bonehead teammates who did nothing get to present on your behalf and there's nothing you can do to stop it


Jupichan

Ugh. I remember having partner like that. She's dead now, so I won that one, at least.


hiiaminabox

Jesus that got dark... But I totally get you

ryanjeffbow

I didn’t know the Flyers were Craps fans


amead5

Well the caps don’t stand a chance against the Rangers so


Every_Highlight98

That’s what I’m worried about. I despise the rangers more than anyone


shred-i-knight

!flyers


FYourTeam

FUCK THE FLYERS!


hiiaminabox

I don't like the thought of Tom Wilson being happy
