I posted about Brass when realized that I have not heard his name all night long, thats not usually a good sign, he was clearly awful in Game 2, we are talking about the guy that is supposed to be really really good....just saying no hating..

It isn't helping that Simon is having a brutal game. And I mean brutal game. And then Rust gets taken off him for Horny. I'm all for that Kessel/Hags with Brass line. I'm waiting for it. HBK all day.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Sprong’s been a back checking maven...and still Recchi barking at him on the bench...

That's Dr. Recchi Phd.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Really relaxing to watch a goalie not handle his glove like a grenade.

Apparently, it's hating when your critique is directed somewhere other than at a @ColePens approved target.

now we are talking

Sprong's d-game is waaaay committed. Great backtracking and great hustle. It always has been. I think, in terms of Sully's hockey, he gets sucked in a bit deep to the d-zone from time to time but Cully is doing a great job filling in his lanes. I love the d-support.

He's having a great game. Reminds me of Kaps games on the 4th line of the Toronto team where he was really finding his stride. Now he's with Matthews. Let's hope it's similar.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

JR needs to package Maatta and something and land a solid LW'er for this team. Someone that is bigger and can skate, preferably the accidental interferer, Kreider.

 

[ColePens]

Rust has been a turnover machine at the blue line. Sid has to accept dump-ins.

Ouch, poor Murray.

 

[canadianguy77]

Rust is frustrating with Crosby

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

If these four games from Sprong don't get him at least promoted to Brassard's wing, I dunno, man. Dude's doing everything asked of him while still chipping in a couple of assists and creating chances in his extremely limited ice time.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Rust has been a turnover machine at the blue line. Sid has to accept dump-ins.

Crosby is frustrating to pair people with too though. This team literally has some fantastic RW options and none seem to work with him. I mean...what do you do in that case?

 

[Andy99]

The L3 has been invisible except when Simon is taking a penalty, giving away the puck or having it taken from him....

 

[ColePens]

Ewwwwww standing around there. Disgusting display of team committed defense there.

 

[Jaded-Fan]

This feels weird.

Usually the backup goalie who turns into Ken Dryden when the Pens play is on the opposing team.

And as I say that....

 

[KIRK]

Rust is frustrating with Crosby

Always has been

 

[Ugene Magic]

Can't be giving it away in your own zone. Not even a hair on De Smith.

 

[HuskerTornado]

damn that was a nice play. too much puck watching.

 

[K Fleur]

That was a nice pass

 

[SHOOTANDSCORE]

Great time for a line change.

 

[Beauner]

Rust has been a turnover machine at the blue line. Sid has to accept dump-ins.

He's doing everything a half second too late

 

[WayneSid9987]

That was all Schultz, who could've simply made a tape to tape pass with JJ.

 

[KIRK]

After a crap end to the 2nd, Geno has had an excellent 200 foot period.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

The L3 has been invisible except when Simon is taking a penalty, giving away the puck or having it taken from him....

The lines are all f***y.

Honestly, I would try this:

Guentzel, Crosby, Sprong
Hagelin, Malkin, Hornqvist
Brassard, Sheahan, Kessel
Simon, Cullen, Rust

 

[ColePens]

Stick stick stick by Riikola. I would bet 10 times he's had great stick on puck.
