They're saying Hags when he gets back. Personally I'd keep Hags and Wilson both int he lineup and sit Rowney.

Me too. Wilson had a bad game last night, made some blunders, but he still had more chances than most other players for either team.

no one until hags comes back. Wilson has been simplistic and unable to convert, but he hasnt been a liability. hell i'm not even sure if wilson should be the one who sits when hags comes back.

I'm not anti-Wilson either. I just think there are certain aspects of Rowney's game that are useful in this series. It seems like the pucks Wilson puts on net are ridiculously harmless.....and I'm a guy that believes any shot is a good shot in the playoffs.

It's a useless argument anyway. Hags or Kuni won't be back with the series at 3-0.

BJ fans and their blogger have been pretty quiet on this site. It's kinda funny, but not surprising. They don't seem to have to many fans on this site. Tomorrow night will be (frank)ing loud in that arena though. Hope the pens can steal another win in their place. Best option is an OT win. Then they won't start doing cheap shots since they know they lost already.

For a franchise whose highlight has been winning a couple of playoff games and putting a scare against the pens a few season back, its honestly nice to see the fans/atmosphere at their arena as they rally behind their team and see the pens as 'rivals.'

Don't get me wrong, I still want to see those muppets embarrassed tomorrow night Hopefully the crying masks and cheapshots won't reappear.

Rowney, Wilson, Kuhn in that order

How can anyone want to sit Rowney? The guy has been incredible and one of the few guys that has crushing checks on Douchebinsky, Johnson, and Hartnell.

Easy, somebody's going to sit when Hagelin comes back and I think the coaches sit Rowney over the other two. Simple as that

I bet you're wrong, but we will never know.

Wow, Werenski out with a facial fracture. How the hell do they let him back in the game with that?

Everyone on here's 1st choice... Not just you. I sit Wilson before Rowney. Or I wait until we lose a game and keep resting Hags

I could see Rowney or Wilson to be honest since Rowney kills penalties. I have no problem with any of those three players, but think the coaches sit Rowney first is all

Yea maybe but he has played above and beyond what I thought he could. That shift of flattening Dubinsky and Johnson was almost Orpik like.
