Why does everyone think the Penguins are so good?

Question

Everywhere on blogs and youtube comments a bunch of penguin idiot fans are saying stuff like we'll beat you next year in the playoffs.We'll face you next year in the finals and win the cup. How are you so sure they're even going to do so well next year. I guess the Pens fans take 82 grueling regular season games plus sixteen wins in the playoffs for granted because they are so loose using the phrase "they''ll win it next year". Alos, besides Detroit and Pittsburgh, there are atleast 20 other great teams playing and who knows if Pittsburgh will even qualify. The Wings probably will, they're the kings of the regular season. I'm just saying the Pens fans should stop overglorifying their team because they are the most overrated team in the league. They will not hold on to all those player that they have and they aren't even that great anyway. Also whats up with u Pens fans on uTube yelling at Fleury for letting the last goal in, but he's the only reason the series went to six game?

Answer 1

They made it to the SCF?

Answer 2

They think we are so good, because we have good young talent. That doesn't mean we will win. I think we will though. We are good!

Answer 3

because they are good. DUH

Answer 4

They're called "bandwagoning homers." They're just idiots who knows nothing of the game.

Answer 5

When Crosby went down hockey fans and the experts were ready to write them off. When Malkin lead the Pens to the division title everyone who wasn't a Pens fan still didn't give them much of a chance in the playoffs.

NHL network actually picked Ottawa to beat the Pens. When the Pens swept Ottawa they were apologetic to the hockey fans. The same so called experts gave the Pens even less of a chance against the Rangers, when the Pens all but swept them they were still apologetic for the Pens winning.

They gave the Pens even LESS chance against the Flyers. Again the Pens all but swept them.

SO you tell me? Why on earth would Pens fans be so proud of their team. Considering they were nothing but a high draft pick team for several years. Now they made it to the SC Finals.. GEE I don't know why the Pens would be considered good.

Answer 6

i think you would have a good argument, except the Pens did make it to the Stanley Cup finals. until next season they have bragging rights over EVERY other team in the NHL except the wings. and of course detroit was the favorite from day 1, but that shouldnt take away from the pens great season. they have a crapload of young talent and the guys work well together. they do have some veteran influence and a great netminder, so idk why the pens fans shouldnt be excited for next season

Answer 7

umm.... cause they are so good.

they have a young team and that was their first run, they will be back soon don't you worry.

Pittsburgh is a football town w/ a mediocore football team, that' s what's up with the Youtube thing.

Answer 8

Chem Expert.... Stick to the girly books and test tubes.

  Thay ARE good. Every team's fan base can look forward to the next year. The Pens made it to the final this year and are looking to repeat that next year and hopefully take the Cup. Nothing wrong with that.

Answer 9

ok pens fans... lets set the record straight

1. "The Wings probably will, they're the kings of the regular season." Hmmm...sounds like someone is "overglorifying" their team.

2. overrated team? I believe we deserved to be in the finals. We played and won fair and square.

3. We were not yelling at Fleury for letting the last goal in. We were simply frustrated as I'm sure Wings fans were when their player let one in. Yeah, remember that?

4. We love Fleury and he is part of the reason why we got this far but losing by one goal and that goal being put in by your own team... i don't know why anyone would be disappointed

5.  "I guess the Pens fans take 82 grueling regular season games plus sixteen wins in the playoffs for granted because they are so loose using the phrase 'they''ll win it next year'." How do we take that for granted again? You can't be telling me that you haven't seen ANYONE for any other team saying they will win next year. That is not possible. Everyone wants their team to win. They could be the worst team in the NHL but they still want to win the Stanley Cup.

Don't put people down for being optimistic. And don't put us Penguin fans down because you won the cup. Yes you won. Congratulations. Yay for you. The party's over now.

Oh and by the way, they'll win it next year.

Answer 10

The Penguins are the Conference Champs and lost by one to another really good team, wow now your the one that sounds like an idoit.

Answer 11

You made a comment about how on youtube, people are making comments like "they'll beat you next year" - did you look at what type of videos those people make? i bet they are 12 years old dancing to Hannah Montana songs... Don't take what they say seriously.

Yes, i would LOVE to win the SCF next year.. But nobody even knows who is going to be on the team next year to take us there, so no REAL pens fan should be saying comments like that.

But if you don't think the Penguins are good, there is something wrong with you. Give credit where credit is due.

Answer 12

Personally I'm waiting to see what happens through Free Agency before I get too excited about making it back to the Cup, let alone winning it. Just remember that not all are Pens fans either, some are the bandwagon who don't pay attention and think the team will be the same players next year. I also don't blame Fluery for the last goal, I blame the lack of defense since a defender should have grabbed if from behind him since Gonchar and the Red Wings were pretty much going in to him and would have knocked him on to the puck. Everyone thinks the Pens are good though because they had a great season and had a good one 2 years ago. If it wasn't for all the free agents I'd say they are likely to make the playoffs again, just hard to tell where things will go when half the team is up for FA, either restricted or unrestricted.

Answer 13

1.  Fleury.

2.  Crosby.

3.  Hossa.

4.  Malkin.

5.  Malone.

6.  Roberts.

7.  Gonchar.

Should I go on?

Answer 14

I agree!  Pens players are generally not sportsmanlike and it makes them look even worse.  I do like Fleury, Malkin and Hossa though.  Crosby is a dirty player who takes too many dives during the game for my liking.

Answer 15

if the penguins suck then they wouldnt have made it into the finals. also theres a player called Crosby. i dont know if uve heard of him, but hes kinda good. so is Hossa. also, what do u think happened to Gretzky, they lost the finals then won the next year. so yeah watch what happens.
