Understand this

[Geezer]

Did they IR Malkin and add anyone? Read something about Peters from WBS being a potential call up. He's a good FO guy who kills penalties. Since Bylsma doesn't want to try JV killing penalties and wants to play Jeffries now for some unknown reason maybe Peters should get a pk shot

[DMcGrew]

Despres scratched again. W T F

[Gaucho]

Do we really have to go through this every time Despres is scratched? Could you just wait for them to lose the game before you start your incessant whinefest?

Win or lose it is a poor decision

[pens2005]

So against every good team in the east he is benching Despres.

Unreal!!!

[Gaucho]

MALKIN SCRATCHED!!!!!1 NWTF"`!??????!

[farnham16]

Dan Bylsma is truly unbelievable. Pens come off their most impressive defensive effort in a long time and what does he do? Breaks up the d pairings from last game and scratches Despres for Engo.

Once again, a far superior player is benched for NO reason.

Well, he's got to give you something to complain about, hasn't he?

I don't like seeing much better players being strached for worse players. Espeically when that better player has done nothing to get strached.

The Pens are a worse team without Despres in there.

How dare we have opinions. We should just think what the Trib tells us to think.

[skullman80]

Despres is one of the pens 6 best dmen. Unless he is injured he should be playing. Period.

[Gaucho]

Oh, I forgot that the goal against the Isles didn't happen. Sorry, my bad.

[malksby8771]

Yea there's no reason Despres should be scratched. It's inexcusable. Bylsma deserves to be called out for moves like this.

[Fire0nice228]

Wait, Despres was scratched?

[farnham16]

Oh, I forgot that the goal against the Isles didn't happen. Sorry, my bad.

Please tell me you are joking

[DMcGrew]

Does anyone actually use that dumb sports yapper crap?

That's a rather lame response.

Don't worry, those excellent reporters from the Trib will get right on that after the game I'm sure.

[joopen]

If that is your standard you must think Orpik should be perpetually benched with some of his play this year

[skullman80]

Oh, I forgot that the goal against the Isles didn't happen. Sorry, my bad.

What? Why would he be scratched for that? He blew a tire .... crap happens. He will make mistakes. That being said he is still one of the best 6 dmen on this roster. He should be playing. I dont ***** about Bylsma much but this makes no sense to me.

[shafnutz05]

Don't understand the criticism of people that criticize benching Despres.... just weird to me

[Gaucho]

Can we just trade Despres?

[Rylan]

Can we just trade Despres?

Wouldn't mind it.

It's about as lame as criticizing people for not being happy about a coaching decision.
