2019-20 Penguins and NHL Offseason

Letang made some stupid mistakes against the Sens too, immediately after they were talking of him being voted into the All Star Game.
 
There was no reason to take such a stupid penalty there. For vets, him and Malkin take the worst penalties at the worst time. You can't do that against a team like the Sharks that will make you pay.
 
There was more to last night's game than the Letang Dumbfuckery. Marino was awful and for a guy that has been solid, that didn't help. Probably Jack Johnson's worst game of the year and again he's been solid. Offensively Malkin tried but Chucky always seemed a step behind and looking the wrong direction. Between missed opportunities and constant hacking. Malkin get's frustrated and then does stupid ****.

I was surprised at the obvious attempt to go low to high. Looked like the focus was to score goals from the point. They really hadn't worked that all year. Not to mention it leads to turnovers which they have avoided for the most part. Interesting way to try to add scoring but unless the shot goes on net. It ends up as an odd man rush.

All the reports now have Sid back soon. After all he did shave his beard.

Murray in the net tomorrow against the Habs. They are a team that can score. I think we're in for a rough patch in January but just hold onto the wild card until the end of February.
 
And in better news...Sid is practicing with the team minus the noncontact jersey.
 
FWIW, Montreal just signed Ilya Kovalchuk to a 1 Year, 2-way deal. Might see him tomorrow night.
 
I'm a little surprised we didn't bring him in when Jake went down. He only signed for $700K, too. I wonder if GMJR is looking at a bigger piece.

Honestly I thought the same until I read Rossi's column. He said even Malkin didn't see him as a fit. Shocked me for sure.
 
Crap..Tanger with the assist on Montreal's second goal
 
That shortie should have happened.

Tanev is quickly becoming one of my favorite players, too.

That was one of the worst high sticking calls I have ever seen. Embelishment? You bet. High sticking? Not even close.
 
Murray is doing ok. Another soft goal on the 2nd one even though Letang had his usual "let's give it away right in front of the net" routine. Price looks unbeatable right now. Maybe we can get one by him this period.
 
The JJ detractors have all hushed up finally
 
Tanger let out some frustration with that last shot. If it was on goal it would have gone through the net.
 
Thought Rusty was going to have a chance to put the game away there. Perfect pass by Malkin.
 
Nice game by Murray! We need the 2 time Stanley Cup winning version of him.

If we go into the playoffs with Jarry playing this way, and Murray finding his former greatness, we lift the cup
 
Just flipped on the game. 1-1 with 11:30 to go in first
