Same looked like he was done. Great news.
- Tojo.

Definitely. I still wonder if it's broken but not enough to not play in the playoffs? Because I doubt he plays any regular season here.

Why would you play Malkin against Caps and risk Wilson taking a cheap shot on him, knocking him out again? Yeah I know, Philly can be pretty damn dirty too, but few are on the level as Wilson these days...
- Amanion

Absolutely. I would hold him out too. Philly is soft as baby poop. I bet if you offered half that roster the chance to quit the season tomorrow, they would.

Agreed.

On NHL.com's gamecenter lineups, Malkin is still showing on I/R, Tanev is not...

Tanev wore a non contact jersey at morning skate today so I doubt he is close to returning.

Geno not on the ice for warmups.

Edit: No Geno tonight. Lafferty draws in for ERod.

Dang gone Baffert.

Sorry for your Zohorna dreams. I'd rather see him too, but he's not breaking in this year. At least he got on the radar.

I've cooled on him a little, but I expect him to challenge next year. I don't mind Laff's presence against the Caps.

A big guy like that will definitely get a look next year under the new regime.

LOVE IT!

Glad Rust just shot it instead of forcing a drop pass to Crosby or something. Hope some of his teammates take note of that.

Would have liked Jake to shoot on that play instead of pass.

He's an interesting guy for sure. Should have a better chance with so many of the depth vets becoming UFAs. But he'll have to fend off guys like O'Connor and Poulin at LW.

Right! Guess he didn't pay attention.

Dang gone Baffert.

Never go full Baffert.

I'm definitely curious to see what strides, if any, Poulin makes next year.

Never go full Baffert.
- PittsPens

I wish I had gone full Baffert with a 12-1 shot.

Never go full Baffert.

Dude wins Derby's as often as he craps. You should probably always go full Baffert.

Letang lol

He better cut that poop out. It's 1-0, not 5-0.

Gotta love that period. Pens looked on-point, but the Caps also just look flat.

If Lafferty is gonna be in this lineup he absolutely has to play like this. Hit everything. Get the troll chasing you

Crazy with all their forward injuries the Pens have the most goals in the league.
