3 Ways the Pens Can Win This Series That Aren’t the Unhinged Schemes of a Maniac and 157 That Are

The Pens aren’t out of it yet! Here’s three simple ways the team can still pull out the series win that aren’t the wild, directionless plots of a fatigued, hungover maniac and 157 more that could help the team, but may also be a sign of playoff hockey-induced mental decline.

1. Get more traffic in front

2. Chip and chase early to back the Isles D out of the neutral zone

3. You’ve been the better team, so don’t overreact

4. Storm the arena control room and blast ‘Renegade’ all game long

5. The four most dangerous consecutive words in the English language: Jean—Claude—Van—Damme

6. Run the football

7. Fire Mike Tomlin

8. Travel in time and stop 9/11

9. Play Sonic 3 until you’ve disassociated enough from reality to convince yourself they’ve actually won the series / forget to re-engage with humanity

10. *incoherent screaming*

11. Give up and hope for pity

12. Dan Byls—hey, where are you going?

13. Chess deathmatch

14. Get Tristan Jarry a neat little Game of Thrones shirt that says, “That’s what I do: I give away the puck and know things,” so he knows we’re mad, but we still love him

15. Wouldn’t hurt to go for, like, a walk or something

16. Bionic Lemieux

17. *glass breaks* STONE COLD! STONE COLD! STONE COLD! THE RATTLESNAKE CHARGES THE RING AND HE’S MAD AS HELL!

18. Establish dominance on power play…with the air-to-surface superiority of the A-10 Warthog

19. Send erotic DBZ fan fiction to Islanders to distract the Islanders in disgust or excite the weird ones

20. Breathe in for luck

21. Breathe in so deep

22. This air is blessed

23. You share with me

24. This night is wild

25. So calm and dull

26. These hearts they race

27. From self-control

28. Your legs are smooth

29. As they graze mine

30. We’re doing fine

31. We’re doing nothing at all

32. My hopes are so high

33. That your kiss might kill me

34. So won’t you kill me

35. So I die happy

36. My heart is yours to fill or burst

37. To break or bury

38. Or wear as jewelry

39. Whichever you prefer

40. WWJWBD? (What Would John-Wilkes Booth Do?)

41. Assassinate Abraham Lincoln

42. Google “what if abraham lincoln never assassinated penguins 2021”

43. Trial by combat

44. Try up up down down left right left right A B start

45. Trial by Contra: Hard Corps

46. Start Isles playing Battletoads so they get to hard-as-shit tunnel part just as puck drops

47. Prayer?

48. Get three points off of Jeff Reed’s toe, here we go

49. Distract everybody in Long Isle who might go to a game by putting a Journey cover band outside

50. Honestly, maybe just some good ol’ fashioned death threats

51. Giiiiiant Eagle, so simple for you fe fi fo fum

52. Point to the Wrestlemania sign to buy yourself some time to regroup before the big PPV match-up

53. SKATE! SKATE! SKATE SKATE! SKATE! SKATE! SKATE SKATE SKATE SKATE! SKATE!

54. Give Tristan Jarry one of those cool, snappy hockey nicknames: Tristy? Trister? That could work…right?

55. Watch Mallrats again and get sad that cinema peaked for you in 1995

56. Just ask them politely to let you win; couldn’t hurt

57. Put fries on it

58. What if, just hear me out, we yell ‘Pass!’ instead?

59. Screw Flanders

60. Screw Flanders

61. Screw Flanders

70. A new hobby instead of hockey, as our therapist suggests, might not be the worst idea

71. Ok…that’s it

72. We’re good — seriously

73. No issues here, nope; just a healthy relationship with hockey

74. Won’t see us acting out again — unless…

75-160. *sustained Ric Flair woo*
