Penguins
Penguins Fans’ Twitter Reaction to Another Ugly Loss
The Pittsburgh Penguins gave up the game’s first goal just over one minute after the opening puck drop. Jesper Bratt scored twice before the first period was seven minutes old, and the New Jersey Devils led 3-0.
For time-conscious fans who like to get a jump on traffic, the Penguins blowout loss added many more cars to the construction-laden 5th Ave. maze as fans poured out of PPG Paints Arena throughout the third period.
And for good reason. The Penguins’ soft pushback didn’t yield more than a goal or garner much belief in the 6-1 loss to New Jersey, the Penguins’ third straight loss. Get the ugly takedown of the Pittsburgh Penguins situation. Our Dan Kingerski writes changes are needed.
More ugly play, more turnovers, and mistakes crushed the Penguins’ chances from the beginning.
It's 80s night at PPG Paints arena. The @penguins are hosting the Devils and for a preview, here's Dan Potash, or, is it Axl Rose and head coach Mike Sullivan? pic.twitter.com/zIFJSU1Xlz

“I’ve got to digest it. I watch the film, and we’ll see where we go with it,” Penguins head coach Mike Sullivan said. “But I don’t think it’s a ‘let’s look by this one’…I think we’ve got to learn through each experience. The performance we had tonight simply wasn’t good enough.”
Pittsburgh Penguins fans agreed. No one jumped through flaming tables, off a bridge, or other such insanity, but fans were pensive, at best.
Not many were safe from the wrath or spared the anger.

Very disappointing, getting concerned. Might need a shakeup!

It was 1980s night at PPG Paints Arena. Don Potash went full-on Axl Rose (minus the heavy cosmetic work) and even got a chuckle from Mike Sullivan. Those who remember the 1980s also remember the Penguins, shall we say, less than stellar records.
like they really were back in the 80’s!
