A mistake by him no doubt but Rust did him no favors.Rust has been reaching for pucks,slow on the back check and turning pucks over all game.
I thought he made his move inside the blue line, that was right where he should had been trying to recover from Rust being stupid. Totally not on Stivany. And after that he skated back to almost get enough of the play to break it up.

I retract my comment.

1:50 of perimeter passing,no attempt to get Bunting in front and shoot through a screen.Watching Rust and Eller trying to force passes through to no one is proof of how this pathetic PP is so poorly coached.

Just dreadful. 110 seconds of possession in the offensive zone and no shots. At least 3-4 opportunities and first option was pass

So, I uh...fell asleep for most of the 1st period. But, from what I have watched of the 2nd period, up until that 3rd Dallas goal, this may have been the hardest skating I have seen from this team all year. When it was tied 1-1, they were playing very aggressive, skating hard, making good plays and passes. There was even one rush where Karlsson took the puck and was all the way in the front of the net...he needs to do that A LOT MORE! This may also be the most work and effort I've seen out of Geno in over a month.

I'll be interested to see if they can keep up this pace through the 3rd period.

I've come to realize these players have come to appreciate a pretty pass on the PP more than actually putting the puck. PP isn't power play, it's Pretty Pass time. And the Penguins Pretty Pass percentage is through the roof. :face:

I really wish coach Genius would trot out Puustinen and 4 other guys who never get PP time on the next PP. His buddy Torts would do it.

Malkin and Karlsson with a terrific breakout to set Rakell up for another glorious chance that he can't finish.

I don’t think Rakell could score on Epstein’s island. :roll:

Getting to that point in the game where you are only watching to see if Sid gets any points.

I can't believe we still have to pay almost 1m on Jack Johnson for another two years after this one. Boy was that the gift that keeps on giving. Contract herpes that.

3rd line has zero points since Getzoff tried making ESP a thing, right?

How about 27 Million(12 Guaranteed) and 6 Years for Ryan Graves?
