Wth was Sid doing that whole time. Just standing a few feet behind geno. Def not a strength of pitts

The 5 on 3 needs more movement. And I'm talking Letang behind the net, Sid covering the point kinda movement. It's too easy to stop when everyone just gets to their spot and they pass it around

We have the talent, Lets see the versatility

I think the Pens are by far the best at NOT scoring on a 5-3.

I'm pretty sure the caps are, they just dominate

That’s interference. Can’t run a guy if you’re offside

The five on three was the biggest missed opportunity, and they weren’t good on it, but they weren’t embarrassing.

Whatever the (frank) that PP was, Jesus.

At least shearys falling benefited us for once. Their whole pp since Phil left has been a joke. Maybe recchi needs to get some new ideas or be replaced.

What the hell is Chiarot complaining to Crosby about? Don't cross-check a guy in the head and you won't go to the box. He's lucky it wasn't more.

Contact like that to the head should be automatic.

Yeah, there have been a few since then. I think the refs think they have called too many for the Pens so they are going to swallow their whistles now and just let the game play out however it does.

I agree. I thought there were new rules and stiffer penalties about that now.

5 on 3 is a lot about one-timers on either side. Pens really only have Malkin so even down 2 teams can cheat to take it away. Should just work down low more.

I really despise sheary. He either falls or can’t handle a pass. Either way he ends possession.

Bottom line is unfortunately Murray is going to need to be big until the end because the next and winning one isn’t going to come easy.

Theyre skewering Malkin. I don’t think he has been great but I don’t think he has been horrific.

This feels like the type where Tanev scores.

If the coaches iso'ed him in this game, he would never get another jersey. That's how bad he's been. Defensive or offensive. It's comical.

The problem is that I don't think cross-ice one-timers from the high slot even faze a goalie like Price. It needs to be either the low slot or some other behind the net stuff. Of course, it would help if we had guys providing screens and deflections.

Exactly. He’s getting older but he’s still Cary price. He’s healthy now. When he’s locked in, you aren’t beating him that way. You aren’t catching him off his angle, especially without a screen.
