Kessel was great here and we won 2 cups.

Perron sucked here other than the first whatever or so games.

Our 4c is good too.

Perron kind of sucked in Pittsburgh. Not anything special about his game while here.

Malkin could have picked up Kakko but decided to coast into the zone instead

That was brutal. I kept saying .. Where is friggin Malkin? Don't get why these guy don't understand in 3-on-3 hockey you have to hustle back on D. He was not tired as he just got on the ice. .. .clearly had plenty of time to get back.

I was on the phone most of the 1st while they were getting outplayed but noticed they started to turn it around the second half of that period despite the sh!t goal against with 9 seconds left.

After the 1st period though it was mostly Pens the rest of the way and they once again battled back for points...against a divisional team in their barn, that was also 4-1-0 in their last five all without their franchise C and franchise D.

The team is good this year. Hopefully Sid and Letang arnt out too long...that hernia talk sucks though.

The whole time I was watching that game last night, I was thinking this team would be in better shape with Kessel now that Sid is out. Watching Galch passing when he should be shooting didn't help.
- madmike71

Absolutely, Galch needs to just fire away. It's his best attribute. Hes not so good at passing.

I don't know that they suck. They had a terrible start, but they're starting to play good hockey. Their defense is definitely suspect, but you look at how good they're playing as of late and Zibanejad isn't even in the lineup.
- Rinosaur


We are supposed to be bad. As long as the young guys develop and we play defense we will be fine in a few years

Well, that didn't work out well. Maybe the next will be a better opponent.

Give Galch five more games to see a difference. If not I like the ideas thrown around for a Galch/Toffoli swap. Or do we swing for the fences and go after Hall and include Galch in that deal?

Yeah I don't like Rossi...who was it that said Sid was going to see a core specialist? If it was someone else reporting it then we have more smoke from a fire...
