The coach should pull Kessel out of the game and replace him with Sesitio for his strong defensive play. And if we start to lose he can scare the other team by beating up the water bottles.

Too soon bro
Was all ready to come in with a "What's the reaction going to be when Lovejoy gets paired with Letang for a his strong defensive game?"

I still can't believe i'll be seeing Phil Kessel skate for the Penguins in a game that matters, i'm pumped.

This is a heck of an opener to watch from an entertainment perspective. Possibly the two most electrifying offenses in the league.

What a terrible image.
This is going to be an interesting game. Poor MAF, anyone paired with an anchor, CK when Kunitz Kunitzes, and anyone screwed over for a vet. It should be a fun game to watch, though.
Whining about Perron on the RW, most likely. "So they'll put Lovejoy and Bennett on the left but not a career LW? **** the handedness lies!"

Thank God we can finally get past the preseason hand wringing and get to a new set of regular season hand wringing.
I don't know if anyone checks out Grantland but there is an entertaining article about 7 early story line that NHL fans and media will over blow. This game has a mention.

It should be an entertaining game.
Pens and Stars are similar teams IMO, lots of offense, not enough defense.

Stars or Pens? I was reading the Stars board GDT and they are pretty concerned with their D, sentiments seem mutual on both sides.
We could easily see double digit amount of goals scored between these terms, game could easily end 6-5.

If Sprong stays up and shows he can score at this level, the Pens have to have one of the fastest teams in the league, at least at fwd.
Not many teams would be able to boast about having five talented and dangerous guys who can skate like Crosby, Malkin, Kessel, Sprong and Letang.
Plotnikov can really move without the puck, Dupuis (when he actually plays) and Cullen still have nice wheels also.

That is one of the things with this team, on the offensive side of the puck, even our old guys still got some wheels. No more Craig Adams.

Sullivan gots to go!
A good ol' fashioned Texas shootout to begin the season??? Quite possibly.
Stars have improved the D a bit with Oduya but this game should be all about offense.
Crosby. Malkin. Kessel. Seems almost surreal.

Well, they could have a mobile defense that can move the puck, but vets and stuff.
