At least I won't be up late watching the ending of this one.
You don’t think they will suck you win like the Sharks game where it’s close the whole game?
Nope.

This game is as exciting as mid 1980s NFL game between Browns vs Patriots or Lions vs Bucs....

Utah only scored because elite PKer Matt Nieto wasn't on the ice....

Definitely.Ned has bailed out about 3 complete Defensive Breakdowns.
Zero Offensive Pressure and complete lack of effort or focus.
Karlsson and Letang have been downright awful.

Thanks for the update.Kouivunen continues to blossom,Ponomorev has been playing well,McGroarty seems to be finding his confidence and the Shutout for Murashov is good to hear.

If we only had an Organization that will attempt to see them get to the NHL at some point......

I see, Sully was saving the Crosby line for AFTER the power play. Such a genius.

At this point keep them in WBS since Sully won’t use them how they should be played. He never does.

Glad that dynamic second PP unit got to be out there for the first 90 seconds. Worked out but not a good look.

Can’t expect Ned to make 4 saves there EK, what a disaster of a trade.

EK decides its better for Ned to handle that then actually go after the guy with the Puck.Shameful Effort from him.Ned had no help.

Extended fourth line shift results in a goal against. E K throwing passes around like anybody on that line can score.

So the team doesn’t score anymore and Sullivan decides to scratch one of our few young forwards with an offensive acumen in Tomasino?

This guy….

He figured Boko was too important to take out of the Lineup.

What’s messed up about this is I’d play Nieto over him too, the guy isn’t an NHL player in any sense what so ever. It was a bad call up to begin with that brought absolutely nothing to this road trip.

Going to see them Saturday in Charlotte, and I’m sure Murashov will play Friday night so I’ll get to see Jarry in all his glory.
