yes, it's very okay. if he hasn't improved in 3 years then you can complain. jesus christ this is like trashing kapanen for not making the team this year

Except it's literally nothing like that. Your logic is absolutely terrible here. His potential is completely irrelevant, he's doing jack **** in the NHL right now. He shouldn't be in the top-6. I don't care if he has the potential to be in the top-6 in 3 years, he shouldn't be there right now.

When you are playing with Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, that's your job.

when you make 5 mill and play next to crosby and malkin it's your job. when you just turned pro and are put next to them, you are ****ed and your only job is to do your best. which i think he is

The Habs are snuffing everything out.
Pens are too stretch pass'y this game.
2 D back looking to pass with everyone covered.
Will be a good learning tool atleast on video.

I don't have anything against the kid. It's not his fault that he's put in a position he shouldn't be in. But some of the shots he's missed simply shouldn't be regardless of your level.

i count two plays where he had a quality opportunity to score, he hit the post on one. not the end of the world

Surprised they didn't call a delay of game there on Flower for holding onto that puck...

You're basically excusing Rust for playing like crap because MJ is putting Rust in a position where he shouldn't be playing. He has screwed up numerous chances to score with Malkin. I don't care how old he is or what his contract is, he needs to be able to score if he's playing in the top-6.

Then it sounds like it's more Johnston's fault than Rust's.

Habs are too good tonight. Too organised, keeping things simple. We'll have to get lucky to score.
