6 assists for Letang

 

[Tender Rip]

Letang has 6 assists and is +6. Haha .

 

[Fordy]

I thought he was a huge defensive liability. Pretty shocked hes actually able to play!

he's just getting sheltered zone starts on the 2nd 3rd line

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Lol. . Sully don’t think so.

I know.....We all know how it will go, lol.

 

[Turin]

Did not expect Letang to have a 6 point night after his recent performances will not lie to you guys

Nine points in last two games.

6 assists for Letang

Sids teammates from Rimouski are going to have to refer to Kris as Darryl from now on instead of Sid lol.

 

[Zirakzigil]

Petts with 4 assists. Being overshadowed tonight.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

7 goals for and Sid has as many points tonight as I do....

 

[canadianguy77]

I I’m

7 goals for and Sid has as many points tonight as I do....

He had a good game. But it’s nice for some other guys to get on the sheet too. He definitely deserved a point or two but I’m sure he’d rather have the win.

How hard must it be for Harkins and Carter to look as bad as they do in a game like this?

 

[SomeDude]

u wot m8

Ask @DesertedPenguin he’s the one who lectured me about Puusy being a non-NHL prospect. Everyone who isn’t a homer knows it.

someday we can tell the kids we didn't out score him, but we played sid dead even.

 

[Genetic]

Wow that "hit of the game" was... Something

Pretty sure I said that Puustinen's only fit is in a scoring role with significant offensive zone starts, not as a bottom six player in a defensive role. I'll reserve judgement because games like this, while fun, skew perspectives.

Quite easy actually!

 

[WickedWrister]

The eternal pessimist in me says this is only going to embolden Letang to play more reckless in our next game.

 

[Genetic]

Sully has to scratch Harkins and Carter when Nieto and Rust return. If he removes Puusty we should riot

I’d rather have guys in the bottom 6 who can get the puck back (like Pusstinen) and go the other way. Seems crazy, but that’s what I prefer.

 

[PensPlz]

7 ES goals, Letang with 6 assists...

How does this team have the worst powerplay I've ever seen?

Puusty and Zohorna

I believe Harkins HAS to go down for cap reasons. The fact that Puustinen has a league minimum cap hit should actually help his cause. Harkins makes $75k more.

Cause Letang isn’t on PP1 obviously

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Jarry = League Leader in Shutouts with 4 now

You said “nobody in the NHL universe considers him a legitimate NHL prospect.”

It’s ok to say you were overzealous and wrong. I wouldn’t know, on account of I’ve never been wrong about anything ever, but I can image what it would be like.
