I'm liking glass off the ice and Kennedy on. Is it just me or does Sid look just average today

Don't think 87 is feeling to good. He hasn't been very noticable.

Niskanen made a terrible decision there...threw the puck across at him when he wasn't expecting it right in his feet.

yes....week backhand to an unsuspecting d-partner when he could have just as easily chipped it up the wall.

I know hat. Just an incredibly awkward way to try and play that. Use your feet.

How is niskanen in and eaton out? Doesn't make any sense to me. And it makes less sense every shift 2 gets.

Be that as it may a professional hockey player should have the ability to kick a puck to his stick.

Agreed.. he'll still find a way to net 2. Also, this rebounds aren't going in because Vokoun is calm and the entire team is playing d.

The Pens only had 2 shots in the last 10 minutes of the period. The generated nothing while giving up 14 shots in 14 minutes. Porous.

Vokoun seemed to find his legs after the first 10 mins or so

When we won the cup we let up a lot of shots, their just weren't a lot of second chances. Same is happening tonight. The d is getting to rebounds and good opportunities are being stopped because Vokoun is in position.

Malkin nor Crosby seem to be able to take a pass in stride. They're both hurting.

I don't think our shots on goal matter. The pens will score.

On one of their breakouts, He completely missed the puck. Not 87's usual. You know he can't see like he used to, just wondering how he is really feeling.

92 is doing his job. TK and Vitale are huge upgrades.

Blysma changes.

12-87-9
14-17-18

Just what I noticed at the end of 1st.

Plus, we're pounding bodies. If that continues and works like it usually does, the pens will set themselves up for a good third period.

Islanders have to be happy with that first. We just can't get through a playoff style.

Keep it up 92...Let's Go Pens!!!
