5 points from Ana and 2xOTT.

Style points not evident.

A lot of good.

2 things:
+++Jarry. Ottawa really could have come back in it, but our #1 shut the door
++++Zucker. Goal of the year for this team. I'm serious. So much skill and acceleration in such a short period of time. Renaissance Zuck

Skid Row.... "Youth gone wild on the bench."

Welcome back Jars.

 

[SomeDude]

Remember when defense was a thing? Neither do I.

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

What a fantastic game by Jarry, just wow!! Petry as well, glad to have them back!

 

[Rudy Russo]

Glad the pens won tonight. A big test for the pens on Sunday against the Devils.

 

[Ginormousthumbs]

+For the defense to allow Jarry to find his game

 

[Turin]

Jarry and Petry nice to have back. Zucker and Rakell consistently postitives for the team this year. Lotta work to do still, I hope Letang isn't extremely rusty when he comes back.

 

[Tasty Biscuits]

So in a way we're back to the past 2 seasons. Our success hinges entirely on Jarry's form/health.

And lest we forget last season DeSmith was so bad that he was unplayable and we injured Jarry by running him into the ground...and that DeSmith looks just as bad this year.....and that the team as a whole isn't playing as well....

But aside from that, LGP baby. Good W.

FSG should get that face recognition technology from MSG to permanently ban the woo-ers from the arena.

 

[Josey Wales]

SOO I Sullivan doesn't tonight ?

 

[Le Magnifique 66]

Remember when defense was a thing? Neither do I.

A game like tonight, Tom Barrasso and Ken Wregget give up at least 9-10 goals combined!!

I think there is some grain of salt to take with their performance since Petry went down.

The defense simply isn't built to have Letang and Petry missing.

Which is why as much as you want a piece for the bottom six, might as well just trade Blueger for something and target a LD improvement..

this must be the first time in a long time that Sid was down to 13 minutes 5 on 5 suprised to see Geno over 15 minutes

Good. Geno is playing like our # 1 C. Sid is not.

How about banning Iceburgh's air horn instead

[Pens x]

+a rare solid game by the Pens
- it was against one of the worst teams in the east

 

[Victor Z]

+ Friedman

He had a good game overall and was willing to drop the gloves (even tho Sully don't like that stuff) against an opponent way out of his league.

 

[Pancakes]

Didn't catch the third as I had to do something, but nice to win I guess

 

[Sidney the Kidney]

First two periods were solid, but I don't like how our third periods when leading always involve the Pens sitting back and giving up 20 shots while hoping their goalie makes a bunch of saves to hold onto the lead. For once it would be nice if the Pens completely shut down the opposition by hemming them in their own zone instead relying on Jarry/DeSmith to make 15+ saves in the period.

Xin Nian Kuai Le!

Happy Chinese New Year.
May Jarry be healthy and good throughout the Year of the Rabbit.

Didn’t see this one, but I do see a 4-1 win with two ES Guentzel goals (and Rust assists)…. and Jarry having to make a million saves still.

NB: has there been any comment from our fearless leader why Ruh was obviously the guy to go with over Smith?
