First off- I apologize for last game. Thanks again, @Clare2904 for covering. Feel free to post the Pens Predict thread on game day if I have not posted within 6 hours of puck drop (usually 1PM EST day of). Will do my best to ensure that does not happen, but sometimes life happens.

I'm posting this a day early because I need folks to review the scoreboard. If you feel there has been a mistake or are unsure of the rules, now is a great time to ask. No surprise that @Killahpunk is back at the top, but the season is early and the scores should remain tight. Those of you who still have goose eggs, don't worry as everyone is prone to multiple 0-point nights throughout the season. Last year we saw a TON of leaderboard shifting (at least spots 3-10) up until the final week.

Game 1 03 OCT vs BUF

3-1 BUF

Sobotka, Closing Hand on Puck

Game 2 05 OCT vs CBJ

[OFFICIAL RULES]

1) Get your post in before puck-drop! Posts made after the game begins will not count. If you edit your post, be sure to complete the edit before the game begins.

2) Posts MUST be made in this fashion:
Score-Score, Victor (i.e. 5-4, Pens) | Worth 3 points, all or nothing
First Goal Scorer (i.e. Sid/Geno, etc - if redundant names, use a first initial too) | Worth 2 points
First Penalty, Offender (i.e. Slashing, Hornqvist) | Worth 1 point each for Penalty + Offender
Three Stars of the Game (i.e. Sid, Geno, Murray) | Worth 1 point each

3) You will be removed from the scoresheet after ~15 games of inactivity.

4) Scoring is simple: See rule #2. | 10 points are possible - however if someone gets all 10 points, they will also receive +5 bonus points for a total of 15.

** Still pondering prizes. I will update everyone accordingly **

My Prediction for Game 3:
5-2 Pens
Simon
JJ, Tripping
Sid, Simon, Guentzel


I PROMISE THESE POSTS WILL GET LESS WORDY

He won't. He's in street clothes today at practice. Not even skating on his own like Galchenyuk was.
I'm worried.
Why are you worried? The Pens put up 7 goals and Malkin had points on none of them. The second line looked fantastic and the PP looked better after he left as well.

Because we won't get to play a tired (2nd of B2B) and bad Columbus team, starting their rookie goalie every night.
Malkin was moving very well. Galchenyuk is coming alive too. Would have been a great season for the 2nd line.

This is so disappointing.

Thanks for running this. I wasn't able to see the leaderboard in your post, but I think I'm tied with @Killahpunk. We should both have 3 points (I predicted the 3-1 Sabres score correctly)

Here's what I have for the standings. Let me know if you have something different. This is my first season playing, so it's possible I have the rules wrong.

You can edit anytime up until puck drop. When the post is listed as 'edited' with a time stamp (on my clock) beyond puck drop is when it'll be thrown out.

You and kladorf2005 have 3 points - Killahpunk has 4. You round out the top-3 on the leaderboard.
