If you fire him, who do you replace him with?

But on the subject of TK, it couldn't be an easier decision to make scratching him. In past weeks, both Shero and Bylsma have publicly called him out, and he's only gotten worse, capped of with that disaster in Montreal.

Maybe the Pens can trade Brooks Orpik 2013 for Brooks Orpik 2010.

A little curious that TK is not serving popcorn tonight. He seems to have earned the opportunity to watch from the press box.

Exactly... If a move is made during the season, you can be 99% sure that he is replaced with Tony Granato or John Hynes. Is that really an upgrade at this point?

Granato is not, and while hockey people seem to like John Hynes, it's not like he can be viewed as an upgrade either.

During the summer, when you have more guys available, and more time to find the right person, and implement a new system, I'm not against moving on (if this season is another disappointment).

But now is not the time for a coaching change, especially with the small forgotten fact THAT THE PENGUINS ARE IN FIRST F%#KIN PLACE IN THE DIVISION RIGHT NOW.

Lindy Ruff's available...

I'm all for benching Kenndy and Glass. Those two drive me up a wall with their level of play this year.

If Bortuzzo plays over Despres, I'm going to goddamn scream. I have no idea what the hell Bylsma's doing. Just like the game against Montreal, and him playing Vokoun over Fleury. That boggled my mind. He's just making some real ridiculous decisions that have no rhyme or reason behind them.

But hey...at least Geno's back tonight.

Bennett scratched is garbage.
I don't want to hear any explanation.
You play well = you hold a water bottle in the press box while a guy who produced no points and turned the puck over a bunch of times while taking bad shots plays. It's cool...

I like to see Jeffrey out there. Getting a real chance consistently. I'd bring a top 6 powerfoward type of guy and send Bennett down once he completes 10-15 games with us. He's not ready yet. Sorry guys..

I actually laughed out loud...and it was kind of maniacal. Got some weird looks from the next cubical over.

He isn't ready, and healthy scratching him is probably the single worst thing we can do for his development. I do not understand the logic behind this decision.

Exactly...return him to WBS now if you're going to scratch the kid...
