Penguins should win all three game against us. In my experience that means you'll be lucky to win one. Trap games are for real.

I don’t disagree with try Matheson at wing, but Ryan Wilson just doesn’t like hockey. I was more excited to watch last nights game than I am to watch Malkin rack up points on bottom feeders. A lot of great blocked shots last night, a lot of effort.

Yup. The fact is you guys are missing both Hischier and Zacha. No excuses here.

He tried Riikola at wing, so he’s obviously open to the idea of doing something like that, but yeah, I don’t think he will with MM.

The Devils missing those two guys is nowhere close to the Pens not having#71, #53, #16 and #19.

Have you seen the Devil's lineup? It's thin WITH those guys in the lineup.

Without those four in the line-up Pens are not much better. Especially losing Malkin because he made Kapanen and even Rodriguez so much better.

They have one line that can score right now and unfortunately the PK is horrible, so that makes it difficult for them to win low scoring games.

Why not just call up Sam Poulin?

Or at bare minimum, give someone like Militec, Bellerive, or Zohorna a look. Enough with the Colton Sceviour / Freddy Gaudreau / Jankowski nonsense.

Poulin is playing in the Q This season, I don't believe they are allowed to pull them from Juniors after the season started.

Need a new coach for that. He's rather play a career tweener like Gaudreau then see what a guy like Bellerieve or Zohorna can do.

Can you pull players up from the Q? I can't remember if we talked about that.

I hate the roster choices. If your almost 30 and have only played 50-60 games move on from him. Give some kids a chance.

Unless they changed the rules this year, no. Even if there was, they have the 2 week quarantine. So you were right, Poulin isn't an option.

So what's with the Zohan kid? Is he supposed to be a find?

Was there ever an official statement from the league on the Tanev hit ? It seemed like it just quietly disappeared?

My guess is they felt the 5 min major and game misconduct was enough.

But then he follows up with this:

Sullivan confirms “there’s a strong possibility” Malkin will return before the regular season concludes.


I'm not sure what to make of that, but I'll definitely take week to week.

I think that's less likely having no real LTIR for Geno. I'd be looking into Staal right now.
