I got all pissy? You might want to reread the thread.
this was your quote
"
Mario played both ends and he definitely did in the playoffs.
Stop with that nonsense comparison."
i consider that to be pissy, and your name calling is just further proof, guy crying about being called "yinzer" LOL
I responded to someone else, not even you, that Ovechkin doesn't realize there are two ends of the ice.
You responded that people said the same thing about Mario.
I disputed that saying Mario played both ends of the ice and definitely did so in the playoffs and that comparison was nonsense. That is literally almost word for word what I said. If that is getting all pissy then I am not sure what to tell you.
You responded by calling me a yinzer again using it be a child and name call. It certainly wasn't meant to be a compliment so stop acting like a victim. You said multiple dumb things and were called out for it.
the comparison exists whether you think so or whether it's true or not
i said nothing dumb, you're just pissed i ruined your day by calling you "yinzer"
-Worst luck possible.... dominates play... Goalie stinks.... blah blah blah... The Pens have won 9 out 10 series against the Capitals in Playoff history. That is not luck. Stop it you sound dumb beyond belief. If you want to look at bad luck, look at the Pens stretch from 2011-2015 regarding injuries. That is bad luck. Getting beat series after series is not bad luck.
there you go again with the insults, to think calling you "yinzer" has that affect on you i wonder how you handle the real world LOL
i was talking about last year, and the pens had horrible goaltending too during 2010 - 2015, i'm sure you will now go into a tirade over me criticizing everybody's favorite nice guy fleury
the caps did dominate play last year, maybe watch the games instead of just looking at the final score
-As for major rebuild to a team winning regular season titles but loses in the playoffs.... I say absolutely yes to that. If they can't win in the playoffs you have to change things up. They haven't got past the 2nd round since Ovechkin has been there. Maybe they do this year but if they don't then I absolutely do change things up if I were running the team. Doesn't mean I trade Ovechkin but I certainly change pieces around him. You think the Pens team today is the same team that was losing from 2010 through 2015 in the playoffs? They went out and added pieces like Cole, Schultz, Daley, Cullen, Kessell, and so on.
the pens aren't winning cups because of the guys you listed other than kessel, it's the coach, better health, and better goaltending
the caps role players were better than the pens, the vezina winner was horrible
Lastly, you keep referring to Ovechkin's offensive numbers. Not one person has disputed that anywhere. Not one person. Ovechkin is a dominant offensive player. He is one of the best goal scorers of all time. Not one person is disputing that. And I don't think one person has stated he is the reason they haven't advanced. That clearly is not the case. But there are 2 ends of the ice and his play at one end of the ice doesn't negate the other end.
he's nowhere near as bad defensively as you like to think
But you can have the last word. I am not going to debate this any longer. You clearly have a thing for Ovechkin and think he is the greatest thing since sliced bread and is above any and all criticism
i have no thing for ovechkin, it's you that can't handle me putting him in the same sentence as mario you YINZER.
