first of all the bs how this is only beginning of the season and they don't care....well Sully is doubleshifting Sid and Geno, taxing them as if it was the seventh game of SCF....If this is not the time to try new guys, to check things out,
for example: you don't need to be an expert to see that Cullen is done, well try something else, Johnson, Blueger, give them a shot.....
I'll say again: i was very happy to see how they bounce back in the third: At this juncture, i don't care about results, i care about the process: I saw JJ who played really well, our entire defense started finally pushing the blue line and not backing off, that immeadiatly translates in more offensive zone time
Really liked what I saw from line 2, condidering that he won't change that line, happy to see malkin finally taking over...some posters blindly repeating lazy mantra, could not be more wrong: Geno is skating hard, he cares
Loved Brassard in first and third, once Sid starts playing that will be the line.....
I am afraid that Sprong experiment is over, he is as good as gone, he won't get a chance on pens much to my chagrin,
Riikola is a very smart player, I feel bad for Shultz, on human level, however I don't see this as an issue that cannot be handled, we have a bunch of border line 6-7 D-man, if juuso and either JJ or Maata step up to be a good second pairing, Ruh or Trottman can handle no.6
casey was good but boy is he small, it seemed like he would be scored on 100 out of 100 penalty shots....
