GDT: Pens @ Wings || 2pm EST

[eXile59]

Malkin-Crosby-Horny
Hags-Bonino-Kessel

Profit.

With the second/third lines clicking like this, it's not a bad idea.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

Look at all those people leaving.

Pens fans have no room to talk. It was almost empty at the end of the NJD game.

 

[Pancakes]

Couldn't agree more. We need that line hot for the playoffs. We will be in a position where every line has to contribute if we are to go anywhere.

Right, with Geno not coming back until late first round and maybe not until the 2nd we're going to need 4 lines rolling to get by whoever we play.

 

[DegenX]

Malkin-Crosby-Horny
Hags-Bonino-Kessel

Profit.

No. Just ... No

 

[orby]

I think that near miss from Crosby would've been waved off because Hornqvist was laying in the crease...oh well, hard to care much

 

[Empoleon8771]

You know, maybe Kessel performing really well has to do completely with Kessel. Not because he's playing with Bonino, but because Kessel is playing well and getting luckier than what he was in the past.

 

[Waffle Fries]

[Ugene Magic]

Crazy win.

Grats to Bonino, Kessel and Hagelin for just exploding.

It is. Malkin-Kessel hasn't worked, but Bonino isn't some Kessel unlocking magician. Phil gets credit for getting his ass in gear and he's getting some luck to go with it.

 

[Killahpunk]

This game exceeded my expectations. I was expecting a boring afternoon game. But this game was fun and was nice to see a couple guys have monster afternoons.

Who cares what it is. He just set a career high in a game for points with those linemates. Leave it alone.

 

[Nakawick]

that should make ya feel better about the playoffs.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

Come on man. Phil's passes have not been flukey. They were sick.

Bonino's last goal was all him. Great hands.

IIRC, I said Kessel was very good today and nothing negative about Bonino's goal.

They scored 5 points, which is great. But I think it's a bit flattering. I hope it's the start of some great chemistry though.

It's 1 game. Seriously, are we gonna ignore all the other games when he got shut out with Bonino?

 

[Extra Texture]

Holy cow. Short of sid racking up 7 points this is about as well as a win could have gone

So I guess the Phil/Bones combo from earlier this year wasn't just a passing phase. Having this guys and Hags scoring is amazing
