Gonchar and Kuba on the PP.

DON'T
UNDERSTAND.

I agree with you. Now that we are actually shooting the puck while on the PP, we should put Karlsson back up there.

is our PK this bad or are the pens this damn good on the PP? Leclaire is saving us

We are under attack, holy Dung - get to the intermission.

20 shots by the Pens in the second. Like I was saying, we needed Leclaire to steal the 2nd for us and he pretty much almost did.

Seems like the ice is titled to that one particular side of the rink. Get it together for the freakin' 3rdf period. Our PPs have looked decent but not enough slappers.

Pure goaltending duel right now

Not only is Kuba on the 1st unit, but he's also on the one-timer side. He's struggling mightily receiving passes -- every single time I saw him out there he had to turn 90 degrees to receive the pass, then turn right back to shoot (or whatever). That couple of split seconds is all it takes for the high forward to get to him. It's like he's playing the right side the same way he would play the left side -- expecting a pass from his right.

Dammit, Cory, at least flip them around. Better yet, the little guy wearing #65 already has an assist and created at least one other scoring chance.

This is driving me nuts. Get Kuba off the PP, put Karlsson on the left side and Gonch back to the right - What's so hard about this Cory?

Loving Leclaire's game right now, I'm not sure what it is about Pittsburgh but he sure shines when he plays them.

Wow this game has a ton of shots. Very even game so far.

I had to turn off the volume, those 'announcers' on the stream are nothing but fans.

Crosby and Malkin must have switched jerseys. Stats show Malkin with 80% on face offs and Crosby with 38%.

Read my mind wprager. Kuba has no shot to speak of.

Malkin only took 5 faceoffs though (Crosby took 16)...and the Pens announcers are no worse of homers than Dean and Denis...also Dean's freaking telling a story when we're on the PP.

I get that he's a professional coach and knows the game much better than I do, but it seems so simple, doesn't it?

How do you come here everyday if that is the case? Haha.

Michalek on Cooke. Well-deserved.

Haha. I have NHL Center Ice so that is who I have to listen to when I watch Sens games. Sometimes that is why I flip to watch New Jersey play the Islanders tho'.
