Yep but you knew it was coming given the 3 PP advantage for the Pens up to this point.

Great saves at either end and then our hero draws a penalty.

Ned with a brilliant save.Rust going hard at the net to set that call up.

The oldest pen gets power play time, penalty kill time and even strength time. Baffling.

Remember when Puustinen at least gave the PP a pulse?

Carter on the PP over Puustinen is mind-numbingly dumb.

I think Lars is one of the better pick ups of late. Just solid all around, wins one on one's.

His decisive play generated good looks.Just a terrible use of players to have Carter on instead of him.

They are convinced this Toronto team is the 1977 Montreal Canadiens,1981 Isles or 1987 Oil.

For the love of God. If we had any type of power play this team would have clinched a playoff spot 2 weeks ago.

Rather not have Sid banged up and also rather not have a PP either.

I get Sullivan hearts his veterans, but the fact that Carter and Smith get regular power play time while younger players who actually try like OC and Puustinen, don't is a joke.

Rust has been waiting too long to shoot on a lot of chances lately.

No more Powerplays please. This is just going to kill us in the 3rd period when TOR gets 4 PPs
