And if Carter dressed, he wouldn’t be on the power play.
Ha! Good point. Forgot about that.

I hate the way this team kills penalties. You can’t allow players to do whatever they want in front of the goalie.

POJ deflects it in.Maybe we should put him in front on our PP.

Fans have to be disappointed that Fitzgerald didn't address goaltending until way too late. Not sure why he didn't realize that it was going to be a major problem area when the team itself isn't sound defensively. Then they had serious injury woes and voila, real mediocrity. I think they overachieved last year and still have a ways to go to be a real force in the Metro. They are marshmallow soft physically.

The Defensemen trying to use positioning instead of physicality costs them.

Unnecessary stick penalty by Malkin. Bunting had the skater covered.

DOC playing with intensity and effort.No doubt he is geared up playing back near his home.

Colby Armstrong calling out Geno during the 2nd intermission for his bonehead penalty, Malkin looks like he is done.

Until the needless Penalty the Pens were controlling play.The Devils PP Goal changed the entire flow of the game.
Malkin clearly does not want to play or is injured. A Zero Effort the entire night.Jeff Carter has as many PP Goals(3) as him.
Right on cue the 30th Ranked PP does its thing in a close game.Which is nothing once again.1 shot from Puustinen.
For most of the season the PK was decent but its gone downhill the last 2 weeks.The Pens D can't or won't clear the net front and it costs them.
Sid,DOC and Rust getting chances all game.They will have to be the guys to get this tied up.

Stands out to the eye test.Unless he is injured its inexcusable to play with the lack of effort he is giving.

It's not injury. That interview he gave a brief while back made it pretty clear he really isn't interested in playing anymore.

Graves utter inability to stop that pass across is bailed out by a great save from Jarry.SMH.

We would be so much better off had Riikola been played over Jack Johnson, Dumoulin and now Graves.

For whatever the reason this Organization signed off on Sully burying Rikola.The amount of money allocated to the Defense Corps and then turning it upside down 3 times in 3 Years is a big issue for this team.

And that’s game, no way anyone is getting 2 goals to tie let alone one.

No composure at all that shift with two defensemen who are better than what we see every night.

Fire all the coaches.
