Maybe the full moon tonight had something to do with finally beating the devils.
I'm not saying he'd be ideal for that role on Geno's line. But generally speaking he doesn't hurt a line if he's not scoring. Obviously you get my point. And he's real solid below the goal line.That said, let's see how it looks on Thursday.
IF we get tonight's Phil and tonight's JMFJ and the Geno-ZAR pair still works, then we're really onto something.

The big problem is they are trusting him(JJ) with the defensive assignments.
Now i can understand not feeding Riiko into that fire but i wonder what would happen with Olli healthy.
For an example, tonight JJ-JS late in the game or when it was over had 3 or 4 DZ starts and 4 or 5 NZ starts with Zero OZ starts.
It really is what it is at this point.
From their perspective, with Olli out, he's their go to guy for that role vs giving MP-Ruh the job or giving Riiko the responsibility.
What I would do is let MP-Ruh and Riiko-Schultz share the responsibility. It just might/most likely look better on the ice.
At this point, Kessel sucks defensively and is slightly outplaying the ghost that Hornqvist is offensively. But Hornqvist is less of a liability defensively. They both have similarly negative impacts on our games, but credit to other boys. They can still get some wins despite these two playing like horse****s. Huge two points indeed, despite being handicapped.
They can still switch Horny and Phil hahaha. Maybe that´s all that Sully has in the sleeve if they are in trouble. LOL.As I said earlier, we're going to get a good look Thursday at where the way Geno and ZAR look together is real or just something for the crap opponents, because if we get tonight's Phil (and tonight's Johnson), that's some pretty tough sledding for 3 players (even Geno, ZAR, and Schultz) against a team the caliber of the Sharks.
So you think penguins could have won with riikola over ruh?
I wonderrrrrrrrr
Got likes.Bluger instead of any bottom six winger. Pick one. Doesn't matter. Put him back in. He's part of the future
And a wet rag instead of Jack Johnson. Maybe even Rikkola...
****ing SC time!
In all reality, it was nice seeing some different names on the scoresheet. THAT'S how you win. Can't be Sid and Geno all the time, need contributions. Got contributions.
Got the win.
Coincidence?
He's a smart hockey player and doesn't hurt us away from the puck, finishes off his checks etc.

I do not think Kessel is part of the problem. That’s all I have to say. Thought the pens looked pretty decent last night against a team we seem to struggle against. Didn’t think JJ looked bad either really, other than him for some reason deciding last night he should join the rush more and pinch more aggressively. Only bit us once though, and Kessel really could have played that a lot better. I predicted a streak would come, and think these last two games are a big step toward it. San Jose a little scary tomorrow, but comfortable with schedule after.
Wow, DK absolutely ripped Murray in his post-game coverage. Said he was way worse than his stats indicated and that DeSmith should start against the Sharks and Philadelphia. I couldn't watch the game--was he really that bad, other than on the Wood goal?
