Who says he has to be on the PK?
- Rinosaur

If Ruhwedel plays, who's the RD on the second PK?

Depends, do you want JJ or Riikola on their offhand killing penalties with Pettersson who didn't kill penalties regularly as your second PK pair?

Why can't Dumo kill penalties? He's not going to log any PP time.

I honestly don't know that being a lefty or right makes much of a difference in killing the PK. Yeah, you may have to backhand it out instead of being able to scoop it, but I don't know that it makes a huge difference.

Side note, I thought Simon had a very good 2nd period as time went on.

If you told me Jusso Riikkolla was from Alabama and he owned a pickup truck and all the paint was coming off, I’d believe it.

ZAR looks like he doesn’t want a spot.

Nice goal

Dumoulin and Letang are the 1st pair and they're great.

After them, if you play Ruhwedel, it's Shultz, Pettersson, Ruhwedel, and JJ Riikola. Who's your second pair? Who's the next guy in when a defenseman takes a penalty?

For me, Ruhwedel's inability to play there (and he makes JJ look like a stud on the PK, which he's not) is the difference between him being a 6th and 7th defenseman.

Johnson gonna Johnson.

Just tuned for the start of the second. What number is Legare?

Adam Johnson with a nice goal. He’ll be a regular pretty soon in the NHL

Cool. Doesn't change my opinion. I never found practice in any sport I played to be better than actual in game reps for getting better or back in game shape and mind.

3 games also doesn't give much time to coaching staff to make roster decisions , especially when they have to trim camp down to 23.

The Pens have been dominated in almost every aspect of this game and are only down one goal... Not that much different than a real Penguins game.
