I can accept that we could be bad for a while but the players out there are playing a lot worse than they should and it’s coaching. Whatever Sullivan is trying to do either this team is doing it how he wants, can’t do what he wants or won’t do what he wants. We need a new coach.

Puljujarvi with another goal tonight. (plus an assist on Johnstone goal). He now has 4 goals and 4 assists in his last 6 games.
Poulin with another goal tonight, plus a Gordie Howe hat trick after sticking up for a blind side hit on Zohorna by former Penguin Garret Wilson.
Poulin now has 5 goals in his last 9 games.

Would sure love to see both of these guys in a Penguins uniform. At some point Poulin needs to start asking WTF he has to do to get a recall over Colin White or into the lineup over Jansen Harkins.

He was hurt for a good chunk of time and just recently got back to 100% but he should be up after the all star break.

Florida did nothing but take runs at Pens players that entire period which got called and zero result from this putrid PP.
1 chance on their PP gets a goal with awful coverage from Carter and White.Both of their goals on the PP.
No doubt the kind juggling didn't help but not a thing from Lines 2 and 3.
Rust is struggling beyond words,he can't get it figured out at all.
Letang has a bullseye on his back and has to keep it together going into the 3rd.They will be going after him big time.

Fire the coach already. 9 years as an NHL coach for the same team never happens.

Good coaches move on. Just do it already. Sully will get paid either way.

I have always been happy with Letang’s compete level in games like this. They can go after Letang all they want. He will be looking to catch someone with their head down in the third. He won’t back down.

Sign Puljujarvi, recall Poulin. Demote White and Harkins. . Seems like simple math to me…

That would be too easy to do. And the exact reason why they won't do it.

Agree with this.He has been able to draw 3 Penalties tonight and has been by far the most intense Penguin out there.Would be great if some of the other guys on this team were as involved as he has been.

Yes! And get Malkin off the PP. He’s having (another) awful game.

Wonder if the Pens might be the only team to snap an 0-14 run on the PP and then go 0-14 on the PP in the same game.

Remember when the PP was not a dumpster fire when Puustinen was on the top unit?

Malkin with turnovers and terrible zone entries.Rust with turnovers and missed shots.Did Crosby see the puck for more than 10 seconds during that PP??

I know you can place a player on LTIR retroactively....can we fire our coaching staff retroactively, and ask for a replay of about the last 20 games under new coaching?
