Same lineup?

I'd like to see

Downie-Spaling-Bennett
Lapierre-Sutter-Adams

We all know that they aren't going to demote the golden boy though. :p:

I'd also sit Bort and play Dumo for a game or 2.

This will be a great test for both teams. Really excited for this one tomorrow.

The only change I care about is seeing Bennett with Malkin, hopefully MJ makes it happen.

Our bad results against the Metropolitan cannot continue. We are due for a good game against a rival. I am going to the game tomorrow and, by the way I am in love with Pittsburgh, everybody is willing to talk sports and everyone is wearing some form of Pittsburgh apparel, I was talking to the hotel receptionist about the team and before I left the reception area he mentioned that we needed a better coach. I thought it was funny, because I didn't stop to hear his explanation because my parents were rushing me away to the elevator, but I was wondering if he thinks Bylsma would have been better or he just wanted a better coach in the opposite direction lol
Also, last night I was at the Wyndham hotel restaurant and I met a waiter named Geno who insists Malkin got his nickname from him. He then began to talk about how the Russians detained him because he has an American passport and etc. I have loved my stay here :handclap:

MJ isn't gonna change it up. He's going to keep attempting to force chemistry on the Comeau-Malkin-Hornqvist line. (At least that's my opinion, I could be wrong)

I wanna see P-C-H and Comeau-Malkin-Beau. The bottom 6 can sort it self out.

Spaling and Bennett had some good chemistry together, keep that line together. Penguins fans cream all over themselves when Beau has one good game and then follows them up with 5 where he's a shadow on the ice.

Good test against a heavier playoff team while we're finally healthy up front. Played well against the smaller Redwings and Blackhawks.

Stay out of the penalty box cuz our PK has been brutal lately and it's something JR needs to fix at the deadline.

Could be tough. Ovechkin is red hot right now, and Sid and Geno are ice cold.

Finally we have three full healthy lines that works well together, so I don't think that Johnson will mix it up for the moment.
And I will not be happy of our 4th line till Farnham is back:
Downie-Lapierre-Farnham
Let's see if somebody can mess it up with it :p:

Depends on where it is. At the Iceoplex, yes, but at the CEC, no, he won't be able to.

Excited for this one. Pens and Caps have both been playing some exciting hockey lately. Expecting some big effort from both sides.

Crosby vs Niskanen Round 2? ;)
