We want more Pens content. They are playing unbelievable. In the span of one week they went from a team that looked like they forgot how to play hockey, to playing champion level hockey. Its pure insanity
Fuck pens no goaltender team isn't a team to speak about
Getting hot at the right time.
It's banana's man...they look unstoppable. I think Graves out of the lineup is the biggest thing....guy was costing us game after game.
It seems like the last regular season game vs Islanders will be huge.
Games like this down the stretch are part of what makes hockey so great.
Agreed!💯
You can’t really appreciate hockey until playoff season, IMO.
Sid is a tier 1 Hall of Fame Guy. No one should EVER sleep on Crosby
Those who have are haters. It’s impossible not to acknowledge his greatness. And over such a long stretch. 19 seasons of dominance.
Top 10 player of all time for sure.
Early entry, IMO, and his jersey deserves to be retired in Pittsburgh immediately.
@@AmosDohmshe’s about to be literally that on points.
@@AmosDohms top 5 ;)
Crosby is Legend, I’m a Canucks fan but as a Canadian we LOVE Crosby and always will.
Sidney Crosby is the Air Jordan of the NHL. Best 200 ft player on the ice and his play is elevating those around him. Forget the points and assists. He plays both sides of the puck!
Geno has been great lately. He has been playing with horrible line mates all season. Bunting has been a really good fit on his line with rackell
Yup i've been saying this since early in the season...also our brilliant coach removed Geno from PP1 in favor of Lars freakin' Eller...brilliant!
Yep. Plus, every time geno started to mesh with a line mate, sullivan would move the player up to crosbys line.
@@entheogenocide Sully's habit of constantly switching lines around is so annoying...like, give the guys a chance to mesh with each other before you go changing things up on them.
@@entheogenocide Or down to line 3 (or the minors) in the case of Pusti
if crosby wills this team to a playoff spot, he should be in the hart conversation
No way. He's been great but MacKinnon, Kucherov, McDavid and aven Matthews are all ahead. Sure, it says "to his team" but we all know that's not the only criteria.
@tonybleau6219 it is the criteria but if you plucked the 4 you mentioned of their teams I don't think any if them make the playoffs
the pens would be hoping the lottery goes their way if it wasn't for sid. the man has played both desperate and relentless all season. I'd say he is the most important player to his team, but he doesn't have the stats to match his value. no way he wins the hart this year
LOL op on them fart fumes
@@tonybleau6219You must think the Hart trophy should just go to the Art Ross winner every year
This game was primetime on Finnish TV and we got to watch it was EPIC game
Finland is a great hockey country, is the NHL popular in Finland more then Liga ?
@@nadaduo1765 Thanks. Its been quite popular, but nowdays it has grown over Liiga, because of better broadcasting and Liiga has gone too defensive playstyle so its really boring. Only thing that is holding NHL more is time difference, game starts normally 2-5am. NHL global series is coming to Finland in November and its gonna be my 3rd time seeing live
Puustinen will be a very important player for the Penguins for years to come
I'm an Oilers fan, but really hope the Penguins make the playoffs. Much respect for Crosby and Malkin.
His parents came to the states for like the first time in 5 years and they got to see a real good game
Penguins are the hottest team in the NHL over this recent stretch. Looked dead in the water two weeks ago. Crosby with 15 points in 6 games. Every single player defending like his life depends on it. This is magical, beautiful hockey.
Helps that the Flyers have lost 6 straight and the Capitals have lost 5 straight. If either of those teams just win 2 of those games, the Penguins would be done.
@@citrusretna2088 Sure, the standings always depend on how other teams are doing. But beating the Canes, Rangers, Devils, and Lightning to get yourself back in it has been pretty great to watch. They’re playing the best hockey of their season while no one else can even hold on.
Agree. Penguins is still the best team..
@@drp50 that's right
Thx for giving credit to Ned he is my favorite goalie and has been really good lately
This game!!! Watching this game live today was like watching a playoff game! The intensity was insane🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻 LOVE YOU GENO AND SID🐐🐐
Yes more pens content! Watching the pens since 91 this is insane, we are so spoiled as pens fan. Even if they don't make it wow what a show they've been playing playoff hockey for 8 games, this our playoffs, it has started for us! Lemieux, Jagr and now Crosby what privilege to watch this! Let's enjoy it because time flies...
As a Pens fan, since the mid-80s, we fans have been so blessed to have the team draft four of the all-time greats. Had it not been for the Jagr trade, they never would have been in a position for the lottery draft that got them Crosby. And, Geno, who had been drafted the year before, would, most likely, have stayed in the KHL.
Honestly Bunting is a fkin beauty. His play in this last stretch of games has eased any residual grumblings about the Guentzel trade for me. He and Geno have something cookin and it’s been a blast to watch
I love this guy...the kind of guy who helps you win a cup
I absolutely love the trade, for both teams. Jake's playing much better, in Carolina, with Aho and Jarvis, and Bunting has Geno playing top notch hockey.
How could you have been upset about the Geuntzel trade? Weren't gonna pay him what he was gonna get on the market (and shouldn't have) and you don't let him walk for nothing. Easy business decision. Bunting was a good get, though, for sure
@@mikeyt3784 I thought the return was kinda mid at first. Bunting has proven way more valuable than I initially expected, and there were some ok prospects in the deal so now I look at the trade more favorably. Crosby wasn’t digging the whole trade either so that was a bit concerning but the team seems to have moved past it
@@Ando2k10 agreed. It looked like a bit of a fleecing at first but now I don’t feel that way at all
THIS is the prime example of playoff drama at its best. I really hope the Pens pull off the miracle and clinch a spot. 🤞🏻😳🤞🏻
No mystery to me why this team is unstoppable now & optimism for potential of a big playoff run . This lineup is outstandingly balanced when you look closer. HOFers: Sid, Malkin, Letang, Karlsson. Gritty skilled guys: Bunting, Rust. Young Guns: O'Connor, Puustinen. Playoff stalwarts: Eller, Smith. Solid 4th liners: Carter, Puljajarvi. Cool under pressure goalie: NED. Also... I think we have to keep Graves out of the lineup at all costs. He killed us on a nightly basis and I don't think most realize how bad this guy is.
mama Malkin got to love that
She's a gem...sweet lady.
85 pts and 40 goals is nothing to sleep on, and when a player can do that over 35? Insane! Crosby is no doubt a hofer.
I think EK65 is having an underrated season, even tho his point production has dropped
Everybody hates that guy for no reason. His defensive deficiencies are overblown and far outweighed by his point production. He regularly will very quietly have strings of several 2 and 3 point games because he has a knack for subtle puck moving plays that lead to goals, but he’s so under appreciated among pens fans for it. When he’s paired with anyone but Ryan graves his defensive metrics are fine.
Always want more Pens content... As someone who has lived and died with this fanchise ever since my dad took me as a 5yr old to my first game in their inaugural season, i just hope all the Pens fans that only know from 1991on realize just how lucky we as a fan base have been for close to 40 years now. We had some really good players on those early teams, but the first half of the 80's was something ill never forget. Ill never forget going to games at the igloo and you could sit anywhere you wanted, because if there was 5k fans there that was a big crowd. I would literally whisper to my girlfriend so somebody 10 rows and 2 sections away wouldn't hear what i was saying, because of the echo and lack of noise in there. This team has pulled itself up from the pit of despair and shown this city that what lies within is a heart made of Pittsburgh steel. LETS GO PENS.... Do it for Sid, get him the Masterson, the Hart, the Lady Byng, the Ted Lindsey, and the Selke trophies that he so richly deserves. And then we go after the postseason hardware.
My beautiful duo. Also tanger played great
Crosby Malkin, MCdavid and Drysityl, Marner and Matthews
MORE PENS PLEASE. Love your channel brother, from Pittsburgh, pa
More coverage on the pens would be awesome!
I love Pens content!!! Bring it on! Really love the quick turnaround on this video especially, nice work
Malkin has been on the trade table for years in many Pittsburgh fans’ minds. Same with Letang. That said - we DO love Geno, and for some people, there would be nothing more special that one last ride. And I think that sentiment resounds even outside of Pittsburgh.
yes more Pens content. I am a longtime Pens fan and I thought they shouldve shut it down a couple weeks ago but this has been a surprising turn of events!
Great stuff! But man you should have put malkin’s reaction to missing that tap in for hat trick lol! He was shocked then got back on his horse
Crosby and Malkin would be racking up points like crazy if they were on the same line throughout their careers.
Nice to see Sid and the boys making noise ❤❤❤❤
Yes the penguins have always been my favorite team and for Crosby to be doing so well at 36 is crazy. Keep up the great work.
I always like the tone of this channel, it's solid.
as a canucks fan, and as a canadian, I love crosby. Hes probably in my TOP 3 favorite current players. When he was drafted, he was the "next one". Can we all agree that he lived up to his hype? and crosby was definately and top 5 pick from the 2000's
Literally under the final game of the season, is when my anxiety builds every night. Excellent video!
Funny thing is 10 years ago Crosby’s point total would prob be the league lead. I think Crosby should be considered for the hart if the pens make it into the playoffs. Idgaf if Matthew’s mcdouchebag kucherov have more points. That award should be about more than points. The man stayed loyal to his struggling team in a point in his career where he could have requested a trade to try and win one more cup but stayed with his team and been putting up amazing numbers for someone of his age and being so effective for his team and helped big time in bringing them back into the playoff race
Our PP is right near worst in franchise history because of a clueless PP coach. If we had a good PP coach this year Sid would be looking at 120 points. Thats how good he's been.
Crosby has been outstanding all year and Sullivan is a heckuva coach. I say this as a Caps fan.
if the Pens make it to the playoffs, Crosby BETTER get a legit shot at the MVP award. if they really wanna honor what the MOST VALUABLE PLAYER award is, crosby is the front runner!
absolutly amazing video buddy. thanks
Great stuff as always :)
Watching pure greatness
We are spoiled as Pens fans. Two HOF'ers are once again guiding this team towards this post seasons. Fuck the big seasons of the other players, these men have given us three Stanley Cups, and are driving another run, and it's beautiful.
This game gave me two heart attacks, one panic attack, and a come to Jesus moment. This is playoff hockey!
His faceoff wins and win pct are wild this year compared to the league too. He overtook Patrice Bergeron this year as the nhl all time (recorded) leader in faceoff wins too.
Truly special talent.
It’s the longevity what’s so impressive with Crosby you always have a chance even at his old age Ovechkin too
Geno is the second best Russian player ever and easily a top 50 all time. Super underrated. Unfortunate how injuries really slowed him down
I want to say one thing, it wasn’t ONE year Geno helped this team, he led team in points in 2/3 cups , he led this team into the playoffs more then 2 times and he def helped getting there every season. He gets disrespected like he just had one or two good years
IMO Malkin might be the most underrated player in NHL history.
Let’s Go Pens!!! 🐧🏴☠️
I'm liking the "you're awesome" sign off. You're awesome too Johnny Hawkey.
Crosby is the definition of beast.
Loving the pens coverage
Rangers, Canes, Bruins should be "sweating"
Crosby is also Mr Consistent. These others guys won't be as good when they are old, but Crosby will keep this up til he retires.
The videos slightly off (just made to quick after the game ended) this was the pens 77th game so theyre actually tired with the islanders in points right now AND have more regulation wins so technically beat them out so long as the isles lose tonight! Dont worry i made the same mistake till i went back and rewatch the end of the broadcast
I've always loved Malkin, would take him anytime on my team's 1st line
Malkin is a friggin beast
One of the best 20 ever...a warrior
Yes please more pens content. Love what you do my guy keep it up! What do you think the odds of the pens making it?
Love the Pens!! (And the Blue Jackets)
Would love more penguins content.
I always want that final wild card team going into the playoffs on a heater. They might even get the #3. The Pens are way more intriguing than the other teams hanging on right now anyway.
0:52 - That was so going wide, haha!
Malkin has looked like 09 Malkin and I really think Bunting has done wonders for him.
Malkin looks unstoppable...miracle he didnt get the trick today
Pittsburgh and Washington making the playoffs would be incredible. It’s like nobody wants those last spots.
2:02 If Crosby was 25 again, he'd be ruling this league........... again. Yes, even over McDavid and MacKinnon. What this guy is doing at friggen 36, is astoundingly impressive. So, anyone who "meh"s at his performance this season, is a meat head. End of story. When the games matter the absolute most, when the pressure is at its highest, that's when Crosby has always shined the most. He is still the best player of the last 25 years. What this guy did during the garbage trap era, the world championships, the olympics, and continues to do now in his twilight years, continues to impress. If you don't give Crosby the accolades he deserves, well, you are the problem. There's a very good reason that Crosby is McDavid's idol. Well deserved.
Best player of the 2000s and Malkin is top 5 of this century
Hope you do an updated video of this game showing how the Penguins blew a 4 - 1 lead in the 3rd & let the Lightning tie the score 4 - 4. Yes, Pitt had a great game, but so did the Bolts! (In the 3rd period, that is.) 😅 ... yes, I know Pittsburgh ended up winning, but barely!
I'm wondering. In the future do u think they'll retire the big 3 at different times or would they retire Letang Crosby and malkin on the same night?
Crosby is my favorite player, and probably always will be. Part of that is because I've grown up very close to Cole Harbour, so I've had more exposure to him than most I'd say. The other part is because he's legitimately the best player the NHL has seen since Lemieux imo. Obviously what McDavid, MacKinnon, Matthews, etc, are doing is insane. But I don't know if I see any of them having the consistency and longevity that Crosby has had. Again, I'm biased, so who knows.
I think you have a great point
Penguins are in the playoffs now. They were +2600 betting odds 3 weeks ago to make it. That's insane if you understand betting. That means bet 100$ win 2600$... whoa!
People are surprised by Sid getting 40, he was on pace to score 60+ twice, both times he was concussed that season unfortunately. Sid can score if needed lol
He'd have 50-60 if we had a decent PP this year...crazy how bad this loser PP coach is and why they dont fire him is a mystery.
Having Malkin, Letang and Fleury in Pittsburgh really helped Crosby early on. Not to mention Lemieux and living with him. Take those guys away and Pittsburgh would have been the current Chicago
Same could be said about all the greats. Lemieux didn't even make it to the playoffs until his 5th season. The year he won his cup first cup, he was injured for all but around 30 games. His teammates, Mark Recchi, John Cullen, Paul Coffey, Kevin Stevens, Jaromir Jagr helped his team succeed. Take those guys away and Pittsburgh would have been the current Chicago. You can play this game with Gretzky, Messier too. It's a team sport.
@@nonamenas true, I was just thinking of when Crosby and Ovechkin came into the league, I can’t think of too many players Ovechkin had with him in his rookie years on those old capitals jerseys. Until they got Backstrom and Mike Green
Crosby was so bullied by the league, and by the fans, when he first came on the scene. "Sid the Kid". I vividly remember the viciousness of some of the ESPN sportscasters. Now look at him. Dragging the Pens to their next playoff in what can only be described as "kicking and screaming" manner. Dude's earned the respect he was denied when he first got here, and while I'm not a hug Pens fan, I gotta give credit where credit is due. Jordan needed a Pippen. McJesus needs a Draisaitl. Crosby needs a Malkin. Ovi doesn't much need anyone but his office, but we'll let it slide, given his venerable age. But in all cases, when one takes a step back, the other steps up.
Dude, he was the face of the NHL, with Ovi, for the first 13 years or so lol until McDavid and Matthews (because he plays in Toronto). Sid the Kid wasn't an insult lol he was a kid when drafted and it rhymed. Stop acting like he has some kind of "proving the doubters wrong" narrative. Dude was a lock for greatness, was great from day one and has been great ever since.
@mikeyt3784 OP is out to lunch if he thinks "Sid the Kid" was an insult. (That's just a catchy nickname that came from a place of respect.) But he's right that Crosby was unfairly scrutinized and hated by fans around the league for a huge portion of his early career, calling him a whiner for example.
@@CallsignJoNay yeah, that I agree with. I just don't think the OP said that. To be fair, though, I did kinda think that's what he was going for lol. As soon as he said Sid was "bullied" he lost me. That might be the worst take I've ever heard. Plus the "viciousness of some of the ESPN sportscasters" line lol. Just absurd.
LET"S GO PENS!
Crosby should go down as a top 5 player ever. Maybe the most full rounded game of anyone ever.
Penguins could be the sleeper this year if they can squeak in there!
Indeed I do want more pens content.
They did not update the standings, the penguins are tied for the playoff spot
Geno has been tearing it up ever since his parents came to town, I don't think it's a coincidence.
Not a chance it's coincidental...Geno looks so much quicker since they arrived in town. Pens are such a dangerous team with their 4 HOFers buzzing & they are (Sid, Geno, Tanger, EK)...add playoff heroes like Eller & Smith...and man we are a contender
I am not a fan of Pittsburgh per say but it would be great to watch them win the stanůey Cup after the effort they are putting in last matches.
matches?
I’m first.can you make a goal horn/song ranking pls you make the best content
They just need to fix their power play. That will be the turning point if they can get in or not. Something needs to happen there.
Holy smokes I have NOT been paying attention to the Pens, I wrote them off as dead in the water a few games ago....
Helps when the Flyers are on a 6 game losing streak, and the Capitals are on a 5 game losing streak. Pens should have been eliminated by now. Seems like nobody wants the final playoff spot
Getting way ahead I know, but if the Pens get in and somehow win again, Crosby will have a very very serious claim to being the absolute greatest ever.
If we can get solid goaltending we can make Some noise at lest make it past the first round.
Thry literally just the spot bro
as a tampa fan, the lost today didn’t feel like one. kuch had 3 assists, and if any other team is taking WC2, i’d prefer the penguins
if the pens make the playoffs watch out. ive been a pens fan my whole life and Sid last time he was in the playoffs was playing close to the best ive ever seen him. sid, and geno go into another gear come playoff time. dont underestimate these guys
Karlsson and Letang too...we have 4 HOFers and a hot goalie ...very dangerous team
They haven't won a playoff series in six years. They are the oldest team in all of North American professional sports. They are playing at their highest level against teams that have already secured their playoff berths. Tampa will turn it up a notch in the playoffs. Pens will get smoked in the first round by the Rangers, Bruins or Hurricanes.
@citrusretna2088 true. I didn't say the penguins were gonna win it all, that they should be favored against any team, in the playoffs, or that they'd even win a series. I think sid can only do so much at this point and the team needs to pick it up like they have on this 11 game stretch. but rn the pens are a way scarier team than the wings, the caps, the flyers and the isles for a 1 seed. we saw it last year with the bruins, the worst team (florida) became hot at the right time and just out worked them. now if you don't think the same is reasonable with a team playing like the pens, than I'd say we have very different opinions on how the game of hockey plays out
Crosby is an absolute legend, Malkin could be too if he would just show up every game.
Malkin's already a legend
Please more Pens content❤
My apologies to Michael Bunting. I was unfamiliar with your game good sir.
I love that we are at a point where a 1+ point per game season is just "meh". Kudos to Crosby on his season. As a Flyers fan, I'd be pretty disappointed to see him move on from Pittsburgh.
I’m really hoping the penguins make playoffs and I’m not even a penguins fan
It's impressive how the Penguins are now in a playoffs spot, but let's be real, the playoffs race in the East is completely broken. The Blues have 84 points and seem way out of playoffs contention in the West. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh and the Islanders sit in the playoffs at 83 points. Teams up front have been completely imploding in the last month or so. Even Buffalo now look like they have an outside chance and they're playing Detroit tomorrow. It seems like no one wants those last two spots in the East
BOLD PREDICTION: Penguins vs. Avalanche Stanley Cup Final. Pittsburgh wins the first two games on the road and then the Cup
Its a shame Crosby had that "depression" stretch where he was pointless for a while right after the Guentzel trade, or else he'd probably be looking at 50 and 100 again.
Exactly...he took a few weeks off...w/o the Todd R lead PP holding Geno and Sid back all year (an abomination) and more like 120 points would've been in reach for Sid
There's no way that Crosby leaves Pittsburg. Less chance than Gretzky leaving Edmonton.
If you tell me that the today in 2024, Pens are 3rd in the division and the playoff hunt, I think you are crazy! I’ll 100% take it!
I thought Rickard Rakell was outstanding for the Pens today!
Should have buried the would be game winner but better since Bunting came on...if Raks starts playing like he did last year that line will be unstoppable in the playoffs
Angry Geno is score
