These Lightning commentary guys are hilarious in their apathy - they couldn't possibly care less about their team.

That shoulda been a penalty on Hornqvist not Koek

im not sure if this game really fuckin owns for all the sick goals and setups, or really sucks cause of how bad nemo is. probably both

the first one, you knew niemi would suck, so just be glad the pens decided to show up and score some goals of their own instead of just rolling over

Yeah it's amazing how good Rust is considering he really didn't score much in the AHL. For a guy who can score 15-20 goals in the NHL he really came out of nowhere.

Niemi is bad in a way I haven't seen in a while. Usually bad NHL goalies can still make saves, they just have awful rebound control or little ability to read pucks through traffic. Niemi seems to just get straight up beat consistently. It's weird.

Stars really deserve to be up a goal or two in this one.

They haven't exactly given him easy starts with Chicago on the road in a back to back and now Tampa on the road in a back to back. He really is bad though, and I don't expect that to change.

I remember Rutherford saying they wanted 30-35 starts out of him this year. If that happens the Pens will be hard pressed to make the playoffs. I'm pretty sure he's gonna be waiver bait after a few more starts like this.

He's so loving bad. He was bad two seasons ago and has gotten progressively and consistently worse. It almost looks intentional. Like he wants to see how bad he can possibly get away with being.

Unless he's loving with us, there are probably skaters in the NHL that could suit up and do a comparable job.

The Pens goalie coaches usually do alright with their goalies too. If they can't help him nobody can.

It's probably better this way. Lethonen will occasionally (used to?) have a good game and trick people into thinking he isn't poo poo. You might get off the Niemi hook via waivers before he does too much more damage.
