Yep. I agree. I think he’s been fine this year. He’s quiet though. Nothing flashy. His 10 points have been quiet imo.

Hate to say it, after proving me wrong a few seasons but ND rust has looked like dog poop this season. Got paid and now he ain’t worth the money he’s making. Hopefully he snaps out of whatever funk he’s in. Not saying he’s the problem but he’s a part of it.

Rust'll bounce back. He's not the type of guy to quit once he gets paid but he's a bit of a pigeon at the NHL level like Hagelin. He's not going to be able to do things if the scorers on his line aren't scoring, and I have just never liked him when he's put with Sid. I think he'll get things going once Brassard gets back.

So Sid can play with "scraps" against other teams top lines but not Brass against other third lines.

Dom has 10 pts in 18.

I don’t believe Guentzel and Hornqvist are scraps.

I don’t want them playing with Sid lol I hate Rust with Sid. I’d rather have Guentzel and Horny with Sid.

No ones arguing with that. Looks like Brass is with Jake and Horny this morning.


Also no Cullen

Pearson-Malkin-Kessel
Guentzel-Brassard-Hornqvist
ZAR-Sheahan-Rust
Simon-Grant-Sprong

Letang-Johnson
Maatta-Oleksiak
Dumoulin-Ruhwedel

Crosby was rotating in on defense with Riikola. #SecretWeapon

When healthy, I actually like the idea of a ZAR-Sheahan-Rust 4th line

Completely ignoring wins/losses... you’re a bigger eye test/effort kinda guy then me would you say that you like the way the Pens have looked throughout the season? Watching them game in and game out, do you think they’ve been a good hockey team?

Personally, I don’t. I see many problems up and down the lineup. Yeah they’ve had a few games they outplayed the other team and lost but I would say that they’ve had more games where they don’t look good than games where they do.

I’m also of the same mindset of it doesn’t matter how you get the job done, but I would much rather see a team play a sustainable brand of hockey and I just don’t see that happening with the Pens. They’re too Jekyll and Hyde.

Jekyll and Hyde is a great way to put them.

To my eye and effort test there's been alot of lack luster periods. I truly believe though there are 4 or 5 losses in that column they deserved to win and that makes all the difference in the standings. I think shoddy goaltending and loose careless defense are the main culprits. When Murray let's in stinkers the whole team ends up reeking that game. When he makes a big save or 2 in 1st periods the team can look a championship caliber team.

The 4 games before the Sens game I think they were the better team and should of won and they did actually win one of those.
