Berube has looked very good in this period. Almost no rebounds and tracking the puck well. 15 saves in. I figure this is his audition and really why not...he's only 1 year older than Forsberg.

There were 26 shots taken in the period and it really didn't seem like more than half a dozen by either team.

Wasn't Berube hurt earlier which is why Glass was up?

Yea it really didn't seem like that many, but when Foley said 15 I was like WOW. Only thing I can attribute that to is 1-sorta slow paced game so far, 2-most of the saves he's making look easy.

As another poster mentioned nothing to get excited about at this moment, but at least he's looking good so far, that's much better than not looking good so far.

Let me report some good news.
Apparently Q in on #fallinfordahlin
Jean Francois Berube is supposedly your starting G tonight.

No one could make this sh!t up.
Forsberg has some good games, maybe finally getting his wheels underneath him.
Then he's Q'd.

Way to go Q.
Although I am a bit scared of Q getting a top 5 pick.

Berube’s 15-15 in the 1st period. He may not be an NHL goalie, but neither is Forsberg. And Forsberg has too many technical flaws in his game, he’ll never be an NHL #1, pretty sure he’ll be an AHL/KHL lifer.

Vegas is going to eat some of Brassards salary so Pittsburgh can go for a 3-peat. What do they get to eat salary? Friggin Ryan Reaves and a fourth round pick? This has to be some kind of joke if I am reading this right.

Absolutely boggles my mind that they would do anything to help a team they might very well meet in the SC finals.

He also looks relatively quiet in net. Clearly he is not overwhelmed by the moment.

This is where I'd like to hear PowerEnforcers conspiracy theories. I am baffled at how costly it is for other teams to clear salary or have other teams eat it, except Pittsburgh.

DuClair has skills in addition to speed - hopefully he’ll learn how to put it all together and become a hockey player.

He’s only 22.

agree, although not all that impressed with puck posession decisions and soft board play..my guess they keep him...should be able to give him a 2yr cheap deal

I know several are on Seabrook's case about being so out of shape this year, but in this recent shoot for the Hawks hats he designs, he looks leaner than I can remember. There was an accompanying vid in the pre-game.

Tell me now that there hasn't been a script written for this season! Mario has pictures of Bettman with Sid when Sid was living in Mario's basement.

It looks like Berube didn't get the memo about the tank.

It seems so ridiculous how teams are so willing to help Pittsburgh...
