It seems easy in theory but Chara plays 25 minutes a night and Bruins will make live line changes to get that matchup.

Easier said than done, but Bylsma never even bothers matching lines.

Pens look like team that played bolts in their playoff...
Unskilled and unable to create quality chances

Neal whiffed on his attempt to Jeffrey, cost Pens the goal.

Hey James... Dustin was open... One timer... Done

getting owned at FO's...

Sometimes when you are slow to get on track offensively you want your D to hold the fort. That hasn't happened. On Pk we are not allowing MAF to see the puck and teams have figured that out. We need to respond to that.

Passing is absolutely crap... Are they actually trying

I missed the 1st period, but by the comments it seems like the pens are playing like ass?

poopty period all around.

He tried, whiffed and made the conservative play to get a shot on goal.

I think I would rather have Neal with Crosby at this point and move Dupuis to the second... Neal's shot will be wasted with Jeff at centre

Nope. Don't break up first line. Not now.

That pass was open all day long...

Just saw seguins goal. WIDE open in the slot. Thanks for reaffirming we need a stay at home defenseman who can clear the crease and be responsible

What a comeback!

DOnt forget guys, we could be playing badly because we are playing against a very good disciplined team.

He panicked but that's exactly what happened.

Neal Kunitz Crosby!!!

Lets get a goal

Of course when Kennedy hits the net it's in the goalies chest

That's not Kennedy's fault, that's just great goaltending. Kennedy has enough things that merit criticism, but that wasn't one of them.

Wait, is Despres scratched?

I don't even care how great a save it was.

So where is the open net to shoot at on that play?

- drummer829

Of course...

He's not consistent and he's a pus*y. Can't be trusted in a big game.
