Horny Watch: 2 games, 3 goals, 1 assist. Also set a screen on at least one other goal. Made a play in the offensive zone to set up another goal (uncredited) in the brief highlights of one game that I watched.

Kap looks good. Guentzel looked great. Malkin looks mopey. Marino having a sophomore slump?

We had a glut of LDs two games ago. Now? Yeesh. Is POJ ready??

We might get to see POJ. We do have 2 days off now, so we'll get to see how serious these injuries are.

Why the (frank) would you put Jarry in? Ride the winning goalie. 56 games dude. We don’t have time for Matt Murray daddy issues this year. If it means DeSmith ends up being the guy oh well.

You're really dumping Jarry after two games? And it's not like Desmith has been killing it sure he's made some nice saves and made that nice play to Blueger but I'm giving Jarry another shot.

His underlyings arnt too bad...but only a 71 game NHL sample size. Though in saying that 65 games for Jarry was enough for some...

If they can get him for peanuts why not, but Im not giving anything of immediate use/importance up for him.

How about a 2nd or 3rd round pick?

I'd move Legare plus a little something for Roslovic. Remember, we will probably lose Rust after this season, so maybe try and get that replacement now.

DeSmith had a great assist that turned the game and was otherwise mediocre. Jarry and DeSmith have played about equally poorly when it comes to actually stopping pucks and Jarry has more upside to right the ship.

Why are we losing Rust?

Second, I don't think Sullivan has given up on Rodrigues yet. I definitely see him staying on the top line.

I'm not totally hating on ERod like a lot of people. He's showing some flashes of good play but the effort is always there. I think at times he tries to be fancy just because he's on the top line. Having said this I'm putting Kap on first line next game if it were up to me haha.

This generally pretty safe? Used it for the first time last night. Used firestick internet browser on tv. Not sure if u can get aids on a firestick or tv, but I was kinda concerned about a virus or something from using these rando sites.

I don't know anything about Firestick but I definitely always have ad-block, anti-virus, anti-malware, and a firewall running at all times when I use any of these streaming sites.

ERod has earned his sweater, he does play hard. He is in over his head on the top line. But, Sullivan loves him some fourth liners with Sid, with one noticeable exception.

Maybe with two days between games Sully will move some guys around. Everybody and their brother wants to see what Kapanen can do with Sid and Jake.

There’s your fact check.

- j.boyd919

LOL such an easy thing to check too.

Still hold Roslovic is likely better at wing. Price just has to be right. Affordable pick up and I'm in. Cost a lot, no thanks.

This. Too early to bail on Jarry, and I'm one of the few who didn't have great confidence in him to start the season.

DeSmith has let in 7 goals the past 2 games. Even though they won, he's hardly played so well you have to keep riding the hot hand.

So Hornqvist has more goals than anyone on our team in half the games? At least Sceviour is chipping in.

POJ was considered good enough by Velucci to be an NHL call up by the end of the year and play about 27 minutes a game. He deserves a chance, we'll see what he does with it.

I’ve used it in my LG OLED smart TV. If you’ve got a chrome cast you can block all the ads in your laptop/pc and then cast the stream to the tv.

Right? I know RWs analysis has dropped in recent years (to me at least) but finding stats from prior years is pretty damn easy haha.

This is what I was saying in the other thread, he gets his goals from in close, but he does have a good shot. He doesn't rely on just that shot though because it's not elite bit it's very solid. Like Kap pretty much.

Sullivan is a moron if Rod is on the 1st lime next game. I don't have a problem with Rod. He's just behind Tanev, Rust and Kap for me..

Coach Sullivan on Kapanen: "It's not an easy thing when you've been in quarantine and you've been skating by yourself back home in Finland, but not really being in a team environment for a long time. He's only had two practices, one with the taxi squad and one team practice

That's a tough challenge for a player. We didn't want him to put him in a difficult circumstance, so that's why we started him on the 4th line. He got a few shifts with Sid's line and he had the odd shift with Geno's line, but we tried to manage his minutes

We're going to have to find creative ways to get him up to speed. This was one way that we talked about that we think can expedite the process. I thought he played pretty well tonight. You could see his explosive skating ability. He ends up helping out on one of our goals."

From pens twitter. Still agree with you though. Kap showed enough to start with sid

This season is trial by fire for everyone. Best way to bring him up to speed is throw him up with Sid. He was one of the best Pens’ forwards last night. Do it.

Bring him up to speed. Come on, Sully.
