I'm thinking, it might be smart to dress 7 D-men.

Not sure if serious.... but according to Cap Friendly, POJ is on an emergency call up which means the Pens only had 5 healthy defensemen without him. That means they're dressing all 6 healthy defensemen they have.

Ruhwedel should play although they just had a baby a couple days ago but we are at home so he probably will be in

Well, hey. It wouldn't be hockey season if the penguins roster wasn't obliterated 4 games into the season.

I'm expecting a forward to go down in the next game or two...

True. Good news is that POJ is capable and I would not have had qualms starting him in our main 6 to start the year. Really hope he has a good showing tonight.
Matheson was likely to hurt us bad in our own end, and right now we can't keep the puck outta our net.

I'm only worried about Ceci. And Petts being out really sucks. He was our best D so far.

POJ was on the taxi squad, and so is Czuczman.

He was, and he's been called on an emergency basis. The only way they'd be able to use the emergency on both is if they were down to 4 defenseman.

Penguins recall Pierre-Olivier Joseph from taxi squad | TribLIVE.com

One of the Penguins’ top prospects is one step closer to making his NHL debut.
Defenseman Pierre-Olivier Joseph was formally recalled from the taxi squad on an emergency basis Friday morning.
His recall comes three days after defensemen Marcus Pettersson and Juuso Riikola were sidelined for several weeks due to undisclosed injuries.

For a quick refresher about emergency recalls, see: Pittsburgh Steelers, Penguins, Pirates News, Live Coverage | DK Pittsburgh Sports

HOW DO EMERGENCY RECALLS WORK IN THE NHL?

When a team is short players "by reason of incapacitating injury or illness or by league suspension to its players," per the CBA, teams recall players by emergency recall. Once the emergency situation has ended, the player must be returned to the team from which he had been recalled, or re-assigned on paper and then recalled via standard recall.

There are benefits to first designating a recall an emergency recall, rather than a standard recall, and we'll get into those below.

Okay. Thanks.... I didn't know/understand that part.:thumbu:

I mean, they can't be kept from bringing someone up if they want. A true callup? Guys not on the taxi squad? Seems stupid not being able to bring up someone if they want. Like when you play with one less forward and add a D-man.

Oh my goodness that's about as dismal numbers as I've seen.

Particularly from... you know... an "All Star goaltender."
