If time permits I may be able to spend some time with Mr. Roborts and Robocop this weekend. It is possible their pixels may be compatible. The dark powers are mysterious that way.

It had to be done.
Very good, but I think you may need to use something like this. Too hard to tell it's Bortz under there.

What a terrible image.
Courtesy of me doing something heinous to my back. I actually feel bad if he has male pattern baldness in his family.

He's growing. Only thing missing from his game is familiarity with situations, which he's getting and the results are speaking for themselves.

Haha, that's awesome. Great job.
I don`t see how you can say anything other than Bortuzzo has been great this season, especially given where he is at in his career. He only played sparingly in what was a short season last year, and he has improved a lot, physically and otherwise, since that time. So he`s essentially still an NHL rookie, albeit a slightly older one.
When you factor in that bigger guys tend to take longer to develop, and the fact that Dmen take longer to develop, I am thrilled with where this guy is at in his career and think he`s on a fantastic trajectory. He`s a keeper, it`s that simple.

RoBort is certainly not making me regret starting this thread. I think he deserves just as much credit as Maatta does. All I know is that Maatta hasn't looked as good without RoBort by his side.
They are #3 and #4 in +-/min behind Nisky/Scuds and I think you can make a legitimate argument that they have been our 3rd and 4th best D men YTD. All I know is that Letang/Orpik is not ahead of either of them so far.
Bortz has the best shots for/against of any Pen's D. That is saying a lot because of how often they have to play with our bottom 6 in front of them. I really like his passing in his own zone. He is not hanging his wingers out to dry like Orpik does with his hard arounds. He's making the easy pass and shielding the puck well with that big frame of his to make the passes that lead to zone exits.
Go Pens drafting, player development. It's nice to actually hit on a player or 2 after the huge dry spell. I can't wait until Scuds comes back and Orpik is the only logical player to sit. I never thought Orpik would be as bad as he has been so far.

If you have windows 7 then there's an icon on the taskbar that looks like a keyboard. Click it. I've done it before too, stupid thing.

I haven't really followed all the threads 100% of the time recent days, so could someone summarize in a coherent way, why Bortuzzo did not play yesterday against Boston?

Basically because the team lost the game against the Habs. So obviously that was Bortuzzo's fault.

So we lost in OT, does Bort get back in or is there a mandatory minimum of games he must sit before Dan will play him?
