Thank god...haha
Let's go Pens!
Keep it up. Lol. Sid is back down to earth

Nearly every pass, tape to tape. Everyone where they needed and were supposed to be all the time and hustling....like they've all been re-born. Sid's cramps seem to be gone. Midol? Whatever, he's a demon again.
What a great addition in Daley, huh? Allows a Maatta / Letang pairing plus he leads a pretty dominant 2nd pair.
Letang means soooo much to this team. PP ten times better with him.
Cullen with the shorty.....VERY nicely done!
Fleury is Fleury.
Nice tone to set within the division.
That addition of Daley really helped. The Pens need some solid/smart D play which is what Letang/Maatta/Daley bring. The puck movement in the offensive zone is looking better. Kessel and Sheary do a good job at setting up lanes for their scorers
And midol? Lol
The coaching switch was much needed... Johnston got scared and turtled when the team couldn't keep pace last year... refused to come out of the shell when they retooled with skill.... Scuds, I loved the dude, but he was a terribad fit for this team now.... Daley was a stud a few years back who ran into a backlog situation in Chicago after a down year defensively in dallas. He was redundant to the Hawks because of young depth and the cap space was more valuable to them. Duper also being gone sort of let them get lines straight without emotional entanglements, though Kunitz is still grossly overplayed. It took them a bit to get back in the swing of things, but I think they will be fine here on out... its a shame that Johnston wasted half a season and a year of ELC from Sprong
I was the Kennedy defender.....just liked the guy's energy, but yeah he was expendable.
Since he's gone I guess I am now the Kunitz defender.....5th most goals on team, 7th in assists, 2nd highest +- at +12 (Maatta+19) and 6th in the LEAGUE in hits (one of the few Penguins that does hit).

Kunitz can still spark a score here or there. He's a smart player on the ice. And has always been Sids favorite winger. I think when Kunitz hangs them up, Sprong will take his place. Sprong and Sid looked good there for awhile. Plotnikov is coming into his own now too. I liked how he got into the Islanders head. If he can be a pest and throw the opposition off their game. The Pens have good puck movement and with Sid returning to form and better D play. This team still has a chance
Yep! Def watching that one on wed. Things look like they are turning for the better now
Tonight too. Home, home.
they played well, they just didn't win....got a point though.
got beat in the corners, no puck control, FIFTEEN shots with some zero shot PP's.
ooof.
ooof.
It was a sloppy game all around tonight. Out shot by a wide margin. Perron has no discipline. Another thing I noticed is the Pens are letting the physical play turn them away from the puck. I like the effort but be smart about the puck
Perron is a guy you can point to as massively underacheiving...he hasn't done much this season.
All correct as I saw it. Playing "scared" and skating in mud all night. Fleury kept it from being very, very embarrassing.
And just when I think Lovejoy might be sorta kinda working out..........

Lovejoy messed up big on that empty net. Eh it was a sloppy game all around on wednesday. I do like the physicality the Pens are starting to show. Hornqvist, Kunitz and Wilson are not afraid to rough it up
Whats going on w the Pens? You're only a few points ahead of the lowly Flyers???
Sid missed a chip shot on the goalie. A pens win though
