I'm not saying anything right now, just bookmarking posts for when the melt begins.

you're talking about 3 thousandths of a percentage point like that means anything.
The previous GIF, and this one:
Are all you need to know about someone shitting a game away single-handedly.

Kind of like Bob in his 2 losses.

I used to like CBJ, but you guys make it hard, you're worse than the Islanders fans this time last year saying and doing the EXACT same shite, then they disappeared after game 6 and the series was over.
It's EERILY similar right down the thread one of you started the other night, and Isles fan did the EXACT same thing last year.
Only I don't think he sucked off Nabakov as much as you guys do Bob's shitty performances.

Both have been bad, but to say one is clearly better is just retarded.

I don't recall Bob taking an afternoon stroll in the park with 22.5 seconds left in a game this series.
Both have been bad, Fleury has been worse after his Bill Buckner-esque meltdown on Wednesday night.

Despres is an RFA. He's going to get a significant raise. Sign him at... what? $2 million as the ballpark? Probably more, but let's keep giving you the best case scenario.
I'm not even really getting into quality. I'm talking just fielding a team.
How good of a GM is Shero? He inherited Crosby and Malkin from the prior GM. He won a Cup right off, but that was five years ago, and now he has a roster in cap jail due to having 7 players signed to $41 million for the next four seasons. This Pens team doesn't look like a Cup contender, mainly due to the cost saving he's had to do at the back of the roster, which is only getting worse.
This roster looks worse than it did five years ago, and the best thing about it are things that were in place before he got there. He does get credit for drafting some quality D men, but he's also the guy who decided to not draft Toews. I don't think he's a bad GM or anything, but I don't think he's some super genius. His team has some serious construction issues.
Since you brought up the Caps, GMGM hass his issues, but he's dealt with roster construction issues with the millstone of two huge longterm contracts weighing down your cap a lot better. GMGM's real issue is that he's been lousy at hiring coaches, He's got $4.5 million committed to the perennially injured Brooks Laich and Mike Green's play fell off a cliff. The Caps are tight against the cap this year (but he already has 21 players signed with plenty of room to sign Grabbo and a 4D, the two biggest needs), but look at the flexibility they are about to have:
$37 million committed to 10 players in 2015-16. And if he compliance buyouts Laich and trades Brouwer for a defenseman, he frees up another $8.7 million. He has a flexible roster that is also one of the youngest in the NHL. From a structural standpoint, the Caps are in great shape as they don't have many bad deals on the books, except Green, who is going into his last year.
I think GMGM is getting canned, but he's left the new guy a lot of stuff to work with. A new guy can come in and not need to start by bailing water from a leaky boat.

You make absolutely retatrdd statements and then claim we are making it hard to like us.
I thought you were a shitty poster on the gaming board but I clearly see its not contained to one area.

Stats say Fleury has been better, it really doesn't matter.
One is a supposed Top 3-5 goalie in the league on the same level as a non Top 20 goalie. Shouldn't be the case, especially with Crosby/Malkin having no goals.

You get so mad over stats and facts.

I don't understand how you can use this as a "fact and stat" that Bob is playing well when these two guys haven't scored.
That takes a very special mind.

Bob has nothing to do with that, those guys aren't even shooting the puck.
The stats and facts are, Bob has a worse save % than Fleury, both are 2-2, both have blown multigoal leads at home.
I get that you love Bob, but jesus, he's been awful.

Playing bad isn't the same as not being a goal scorer he once was.
And panties in a wad? I made one reply, which was that he was 6th in the NHL in goals scored. Clearly, he can't score. Exaggerate much?

I've said Fleury has sucked many times, I'm not the one defending the shite out of him sucking him off like you are Bob.
Posted on 4/24/14 at 5:56 pm to UltimateHog
You should expect more/better from Bob honestly, the Pens are getting what is expected of Fleury.

Not one CBJ fan on here has said Bob has been anything better than bad.
That's a fact. I'm not sure where you're getting that.
