I've got no problem with Vitale with Geno and Neal. In fact, I suggested it like a week and a half ago. ;)

Nice come back. We are back in what seems like control.

It is a matter of no little amount of disgust, that we cannot see Malkin/Neal with someone with a bit of sand paper. Malkin is ready to dominate in the offensive zone, but no one is getting him the puck or winning pucks.

Btw. Letang is looking good and so is Bortuzzo. Martin too, obviously. 4th line almost exclusively a PK line.... which is good. Would be even better if Glass gets sacrificed next time so there are two players who can play hockey there, and we can get Sid/Malkin extra shifts with a bonus offensive line.

Scuds should be complimented for his PK work in this one so far. An abomination with the puck on his stick though. Can say the same for Adams, but when the Rangers are 0-4 on the PP and those guys have been out there for more than 5 of the 7.00 minutes we've been shorthanded... well, some praise is due.

I think Sid has had two good shifts in the game, both towards the end of the second. No Kunitz is not a big help today, but Sid looks like he is skating at 70%, at most.

Crosby has to be better. Not "have some good looks", not "create some good chances". He needs to make **** happen out there that puts the puck in their net.

really good two shifts, but he deferred twice again, instead of driving it to the net...feel he is coming back, it doesn't help that kunitz is not playing well

You're just hating on Jokinen. It's clear you have an agenda. :sarcasm:

Joey V would be great with Geno and Neal. There's really only a few combinations of players that have shown zero chemistry, and DB seems to find them every single week. The one combo we never get is BB with Geno. That must be the hidden gold DB is waiting for just the right moment to unleash.

He looks like he is laboring at certain points. Dude has to be injured to some degree. His skating is not near his standard.
