Serious question.. Odds 50 vs 50. Will we ever see Chris Kunitz play in Penguins uniform again?

I say no.

I don't think he's ready to go by playoffs end. Even if he was, if we've made it that far I doubt coaches mess with the chemistry or lineup unless there were injuries.

Doubt he's resigned.

Yep hopefully. The biggest questionmark to me is messing with chemistry VS having a chance of playing Chris Kunitz.

If we do make it to the 2nd or 3rd round or something and then have a couple rough games and down in the series and Sully is looking to shake something up I could see Kunitz come in, but that's a long way off and not worth discussing/worrying about right now.

I mean there's like 100% chance someone gets injured in the playoffs. I think we'll see him if we make it to the second round

Maybe they're just resting him so a repeat of last year doesn't happen. They should give Jarry one of the last 2 games, his play with WBS this year has made him deserve it.

Murray's injured...I just know it. I can feel it in the pit of my stomach.

i dunno. Murray's reaction last game after that one goal, that was a little mini stretch I know well. He could've tweaked something. I don't have a vid of it but I remember it pretty clearly as he leaned forward afterwards and moved his leg while on the ice, as if to test it to see if it was ok.

If murray is not 100% solid for us in the playoffs we are done....
hopefully he's fine and they are just resting him, but if that where the case he'd be on the bench with Fleury starting, not Jarry.

If Sully is telling the truth and nothing is wrong with Murr , I like the idea of him staying off the ice completely and just taking a mental break in preparation for what we hope is a deep playoff run.

If they want Murray to have a break and Fleury got injured he wouldn't get one. It's good for Jarry to get some exposure to the big club even if he doesn't play.

Who knows though. They'd never tell.

CBC reported he's back it Pitt. Not injured!!! :)

Makes me feel a little better. Hope he's being truthful.

I like how Ruhwedel is at a point on this team where he is a guy you rest for the playoffs. Doesn't bode well for Maatta.

Maatta is playing on the top pair with Dumoulin when the playoffs start.

I think more likely Maatta's playing on the bottom pairing with Hainsey. It is interesting that Ruhwedel looks to have usurped Streit.

If Kunitz is able to play I have no doubt that he will play. It would be nice to never see him play again for the pens. He's one of the last useless Shero reign of terror players left.
