Why is that all tournament the Pens struggle getting the puck through the neutral zone while the other teams appear to be moving the puck through the neutral zone at will?

So people think that this tournament reflects well on Pouliot or simply doesn't matter?

Because a cross-check to the face isn't a good kind of dirty for me.

I agree about Jarry. For a guy that's 6'2" he doesn't cover much of the net. He's also too deep always. That'd seem easy to fix but it's been the case with him for years.

Would be great for our soft blueline if he could add that feistiness to his game at the NHL level.

He was doing it in spurts last season. He has been pretty nasty since his last season with the Hawks.

He's got a real mean streak, but he has to learn how to bring that edge every game like Letang.

What a terrible image.

Doesn't really matter. You'd like to see him dominating but he looks like he's just getting through the tournament, not an amazing thing to see but the preseason is the big thing. I'm convinced that he's going to have an under the radar dirty streak for years in the NHL.

Reflects well? What are you on about? That's part of hockey.

Pens don't need any Lady Byng candidates on their blueline this season.

He's just preemptively establishing his own personal whipping boy for the season.

Cross checks to the face aren't really under the radar dirty. That's just straight up obvious dirty.

You shouldn't assume things.

With the Pens current defense (presumably with Lovejoy and Scuderi), I am pretty sure that I don't need Pouliot as a whipping boy.
