Plus
+ Sidney Crosby: I hope I'm not exaggerating, but this might be the best I've seen Sid. That includes the tear he was on before he got concussed. He's killing it in the corner and every 1 on 1 battle. His vision is unreal. He's also playing great defensive hockey. There is nothing I can say bad about him.
+ Beau/Despres: I love our rookies. They play such good solid games and most importantly - do not make DUMB mistakes. Despres has special vision. He sees the lane that the puck has to go through and comes up with the best way to get it there. Whether it's the boards, glass, or straight pass... he does it.
+ Geno Line: I think everyone looked dangerous tonight. They are really starting to click. Beau is the missing piece on that line and Geno/Neal are starting to trust him. I like where this line is going.
Minus
- Everyone scores!: Why can't we get through a game 2-1 or for crying out loud a shut out? If it's not our defense, it's our goaltending. If it's not our goaltending, it's awful defense. If both of those things are good, we will probably give up a SHG. I just don't get it. We can't win games unless we score 3+ because right now we are at the bottom of the standings in goals against at roughly 3 goals per game. That's awful.
This team really reminds me of the Caps from the last 4+ years.
- PK: Special teams is hurting us right now. We aren't even making it interesting. Giving up goals within 15/30 seconds of the start. We need huge faceoff wins in the d-zone. The only 2 going out there should be Crosby and Vitale (hahaha). Our PK before tonight was ranked #20. It's getting worse.
- Fleury: I hate blaming anything on him, but those goals tonight weren't anything special. He plays great then comes back down. It's been frustrating w/ our goalies this season.
- Third Line: We used to have the best third line in the game and right now Cooke, Kennedy, and Sutter are not on the same page. They just look out of sync with no real purpose out there. I think we all know TK sucks this season, but I also don't like what Cooke brings to that line. They just don't do anything for me.
- Powerplay: Needed some special teams goals tonight.
- 4th line/Coaching the 4th line: Let's not even get into a Vitale debate... but let's talk about the ******** that Glass provides in general. Or the ******** that Dan Bylsma plays these ****ing guys against top lines. Or the ****ing ******** that we see this line continue to get major minutes at the end of games.
- Potential Geno [shoulder injury]: Speaks for itself.
