Pens have the 4th best power play. That’s wild after last seasons PP debacle.

I'm going to give some props to Quinn to be honest.

Ned another huge save. He always competes. Hopefully he can go on a run now.

Rust gets clearly interfered with on that PK Rush.Of course the Wings then get the PP Go Ahead Goal.
The Officiating in this game has been a disaster.

Maybe the 4th line could play a little more while we’re down a goal.

I want a slapper from Karlsson that goes right through the goalie, the net, the boarding, several innocent bystanders and ricochet off the Penguins team bus in the parking lot.

Too bad they gave up that PPG late. Gave up 2 power play goals which has been a rarity.

Would have been nice to get a point tonight.

At no point with Ned pulled did the Pens even look like they had anything close to a scoring chance.

This is maddening. The Wings defense is not good. But let’s grind it and kill some time.

It seems like we have played the Wings in Detroit on NYE and had every game like this.

The terrible start and lack of any intensity until the 3rd Period had its effect in a Negative way.
Sully constantly throwing out a 4th Line that cannot be any threat to score outside of Lizotte again shows how out of touch he is.
Ned gave them an opportunity to be in this game.So many terrific saves.
DOC getting on the board was nice to see,the guy plays his Heart out..He sure finds a way to score against Detroit.
The Defense were not terrible,seemed more like a lackluster effort defensively from the Forwards gave the Wings their chances.

Another Game where this Top 2-3 Coach was comfortable with not adjusting to what was going on from his Team.The 2nd Line was clearly offering very little but he felt throwing out that 4th Line shift after shift and not bumping Beauvilier off the 2nd Line and giving Tomasino a look at RW wasn't worth a try..Or seeing if Lizotte on the 3rd Line could help.Stubbornly watches another Game that was there for the taking go down the drain.

They do the little things that don’t always show up on the stat sheet.

2 out of a possible 6 points against the Isles and Wings...Not good enough. 3 and 3 in last 6.

Let's keep playing Neito 14 minutes a game though.
