Not just Daley.

As I keep saying, Cole wasn't a great offensive defenseman by any stretch, but the guy could make smart, quick decisions with the puck (especially on breakout passes).

Honestly, I'd take Cole over any currently playing Penguins defenseman not named Kris Letang when it comes to decision making and execution with the puck.
I think you're overstating that a bit if you're putting him above Dumo.

Well, far be it from me to rain on your parade, but Pens In The Room has a sneak peak of JR practicing his post-game comments . . .

No, he's watching game tape of excellent hockey plays by Rust, Sheahan, ZAR and others from the last dozen games to learn how to be a more complete player with his scoring and defense.

Odd list of people considering they all have at least one more goal than Spring’s 0.

Also, we had one goal against last night in regulation and Sprong was once again front and center on it.

It must be stuck on a loop of Sheahan’s tape :laugh:
He's obviously learning how to score from the sniper Aston-Reese and how to play defense by Jack Johnson and how to rush up the ice by Olli Maatta.

He's just learning from his leaders man. Give him time.

@ColePens, given the Horny news, I've filed a preemptive missing person's report for your ****. :thumbu:

If he’s out for a while we are ****ed. We currently dont have enough top 9 wingers let alone a top 6 winger.

They're amazing. Jack Johnson is a fantastic hockey player, as is Reese and Sheahan. Obviously we need more like that in this line-up, how else is Sully going to get his team the way he wants it?

JR is failing all of us by not getting more of those.

It’ll be Simon or Rust. I really hope Simon but ZAR-Brass-Simon had lots of chances (couldn’t convert) and aren’t getting scored on so I expect it to be Rust unfortunately

Well, if there's anything good to come out of today's news, it certainly is that ZAR will remain with Brassard.

@KIRK

I’d rather have Jack Johnson in our line up every night over Daniel Sprong.

:(
Olli Maatta has been so underrated this season, he's probably one of our best players with knowing how to pinch.

Daniel Sprong, who's that?

Is that the kid that people here hate that this team should have sent to the AHL but can't because THEY f***ed that up? Lol, yeah man, what a f***ing clown that kid. Probably his own grand design. This team can't let that slip past them.
