Probably also easier to plant yourself in front and not be moved when you're 6'7 and 240 lbs. compared to a lot of our sub 6'0 and 190 lbs wingers.
i would agree but does sully have a history of doing that?I haven't checked the reactions in any of the various threads, but I'm sure many of you guys were like me in thinking Puust should've gotten another game based on how he performed against VGK. Didn't exactly light the world on fire, but he was +2 with an assist and I thought showed some good offensive instincts in terms of making himself available for shots. I didn't notice him rag the puck at all though, not sure if that was a confidence thing or just no real chances in only 10 mins of ice time.
Cant believe I'm saying this but I think Sullivan knew what he was doing opting to play big Z over the 5'9" 22 year old against the #1 seed Carolina. That was an incredibly tight checking, PHYSICAL game and while Zohorna was mostly invisible, you gotta think that Puust would've been just as ineffective.
I mean, they wouldn’t be favored in a series against Carolina or anything but not many teams would. They just went 5-1-1 in a stretch against NYR, CBJ, TB, FL, CAR, VGK, and FL - I don’t think we are a top 5 team but we certainly are right there after the best teams.
Petts is healthy. He was a healthy scratch today.
TrendingWait... what? We are now switching to merit based play?
Jarry had a big phallus performance.Missed the game, was at work and just got home. We won? nice.
I’d put Carolina with those 3 and otherwise we are completely on the same page.yeah, that’s how I view the Pens. Although, I think the top 3 teams are Florida, Calgary, Colorado in the league and everyone else is a layer below.
Don't get the complaints re DST. You would prefer the sun to come up at 4:30AM and go down at 7:30PM in the summer?This daylight savings time. No idea what it's about.
Come playoffs I will pay you to attend.Just got home from the game. 4.5 hour drive each way. So glad my daughter and son got to see the win. My other son was sad Carolina lost but was OK with it (Canes fan)
Kept my steak alive 10 games attended live and the Pens have won every one.
Good Time. The building went from Crazy loud after Crosby's goal to silent after Aho scored. Glad they held on.
Yikes 20-4 3rd period shots vs a tired team.Jarry had a big phallus performance.
That reallllllly looks like a goal.I dont know about you, but I think I can see white between the puck and the red line...

But...I was told by @Ragamuffin Gunner that we wouldn't get any more points against play off teams and that we were finished3-1-1 against playoff teams so far in this 7 game streak. Nice work.
