We are playing Edmonton. Anything else you really need to know?

I thought the Pens were pretty sloppy in that period too. If they were playing an NHL team they could be down giving up those golden chances.

Our PP is garbage.

What the hell? I napped through the first and Sutter scores 2 goals. Maybe I should nap more often. Or maybe Sutter should play hockey more often

Quick notes from the first?

Edit: Did Cole fight too?

Penguins are playing pretty solid and Edmonton is an AHL team. The chances they are getting, they aren't taking advantage of.

He shot the puck!

That was good puck movement and a nice shot that even a real NHL goalie probably wouldn't have stopped.

Well look at that Sid scores and it's on the PP, pigs can fly

Hmm perhaps edm would be interested in Zatkoff or Murray next season.

Three headed monster each with a point there

Oi vey steggy

Don't worry soon we will scratch Downie so Bennett can hide the entire game. Bennett just doesn't play hockey.
Nice getting that first right in by Cole. Thats hockey.

And yet he still has more potential to help this team than CFA.

Man after that west coast trip and the tight checking this is some raggedy pond hockey.

Not exactly a great game by Fluery.... Seems to be leaving his net more tonight than normal... Do you think Greiss should get some more starts to rest MAF?

If Nuge is 6', Letang is 6'2". Towered over him during that confrontation.

Fleury looks like he is having trouble with the puck tonight, he hasnt been able to absorb alot of the shots, theyre all bouncing right out in front on him

For weeks I ve been saying separate Crosby and Malkin and take Letang off the 1st unit and all I ve read is "its a system problem".... "X's and O's"... at least according to Gunner (who I like)... Its not a system problem on the PP RYAN!!! Its a personal problem ... separate Crosby and Malkin and put letang on the second unit... Simplify ... Simplify ... Simplify

This would have been a perfect chance to rest Flower. Im not sure why they didn't.

And? Its Edmonton... Griess could play today and Saturday if they need him to?

Un(frank)ing real. What a piss poor effort.

As a big 51 fan this has been far and away his worst performance.

Pretty simple really do you need me to explain it?

They've basically quit after the 4th goal.

Ugh....

Nice finish by Downie

Now stomp on the throat of this AHL caliber team.

It's the middle of March. A harsh winter of cold and snow has finally given way to warmer temperatures across the United States. Daylight savings time is in effect.

And some NBC Sports exec, NHL Network exec, or NHL schedule maker thinks up the grand idea that NOW is the time that people want two days of weekend afternoon hockey.
