Insane that the 2nd line has 27 points from that road trip. Wow, it's been a long time coming, but it looks like it's here!
Have some 4th line PK'ers take over from 55/26 and we are pretty close to ideal imo.

....... or better yet, don't take penalties that we have to kill 
Also need Copp and Kuli to return to the lineup. Has anyone heard any updates on them?
I think if that line stays together and healthy, they will have ups and downs like all athletes, but overall will put up many points. At the very least they will be quite a challenge for the opposition.
Definitely 1. We all know he stopped at 5 last game cuz he wanted to score #100 at home...

Yeah, I know, but Copper coming back means Pepé Lemieux eats popcorn which is better overall IMO.Yeah Copp was really badly missed in the win over St. Louis!

Perreualt with Lowry and Tanev was a big improvement without Copp.
Copp is okay on the 4th line where he belongs with heavy emphasis on where he belongs!
Agreed, I have no problem at all with Copp on the 4th line. I'm sure Rosie and Petan would appreciate a little grit on their line.

With three division rivals ahead of us on points as well as points %, we need a win. Doesn't feel right being a wild card team with this roster. It's early, but it just goes to show you what losing 2 out of 3 can do to you. The division loss to the Wild was especially painful.
Pittsburgh will be a tough challenge. We need a full 60 minutes, boys!

No Buff on the ice, apparently he didn't play the last 7+ mins of the game Sat. Hopefully just taking him out because we had a lead
Great, now Laine is going to have to score 10.

“There was Wheeler announcing Brendan Lemieux was available for interviews as a media horde descended on the man of the hour, Laine. "He wants to talk about his goal," Wheeler cracked.”

I remember him going into the boards really awkwardly last game. He got up a little slow but didn't seem to be favoring anything.No Buff on the ice, apparently he didn't play the last 7+ mins of the game Sat. Hopefully just taking him out because we had a lead
Hopefully something he can play through.

Got a feeling this is gonna be a great game. High octane, lots of offense, big hits, maybe a fight. Jets seem to have developed a bit of a mini rivalry with pittsburgh, they don't cross paths often but when they do, its always eventful
Laine gets to shoot on a backup with Matt Murray out with injury. On the downside, Crosby is back and on fire.
Is anyone else wondering why Lemieux isn't in the AHL? I feel he's better off on the top line and PP there than in the pressbox with the Jets. Dano is back and he enjoys the free popcorn more than anyone.

Practice audio:
Players - Laine & Perreault.
Coach Maurice scrum topics - Reflecting on Laine’s First Star of the Week. Why are Laine/Little working now when it hadn’t previously? Update on players not participating in practice today. Is this the first extended stretch that Kyle Connor and Patrik Laine have played together? Does he wish he used that combo last season? Is there a huge difference in Laine’s game now than pre-Helsinki? On Laine chasing most goals in a month record. How many times has he been called Rocket in the last day or two? On much did playing on the 3rd line impact Laine’s play?

As per usual, stats prove you wrong. Copp-Lowry has been the key driver to that line's success.

I think they wanted to get Dano playing some games in the minors first before bringing him up. Wouldn't mind seeing a handful of games for Appleton until he's ready.

I still haven't gotten over the Sestito hit on Enstrom. There was no cost to Pittsburgh for that. The four game suspension was meaningless because they only brought Sestito up for this one game to try to kill someone 1/2 his size.
It may be long forgotten, but not for me.
