All (6) goals were on pittsburgh. Penguin mistakes - unforced. I give tremendous credit to Boston's defense. That is it. Sorry, I can't give any more. They played a team with little compete level, urgency and heart. Boston D and Pittsburgh D won this game for them, not Boston O.

But can you afford all these guys?

Your only a goalie away

If we could pay $7M to Letang, we'd have the money to pay Lundqvist.

Truly a shameful performance tonight. Disgusting that this team came out and played like a bunch of dogs in a game that was so important. Dropping two at home is unacceptable.

No, he isn't. The smart play is Jones. Colorado DOESN'T need McKinnon nearly as much as Jones. Sakic is an idiot if he takes McKinnon over Jones.

Wel, we have the talent but getting it to play well is a challenge, for sure.

Kris Letang is starting to rnd his way into the Goligoski and Whitney dog house as far as I'm concerned.

embarrassed is what they needed, here's to game 3

You need a reality check. We are down 2-0 in this series if Hank were in net for us. We are a goalie away? LOL

With duchene, O'reilly, and stastny in the middle, you don't take another center. Their weakness is defense. Jones is also a guy that could help Johnson bring back his game

Malkin tho. Hes getting paid again soon. I think money towards a great goalie would serve the pens well.

Can they afford Malkin, letang, a great goalie, with Crosby all at the same time?

Looking at Popeye Jones b-ball shape makes me think Seth will get some weight on and become a new Byfuglien.

If Pittsburgh had the 1st overall pick, I'd take MacKinnon any day.

depends how much the goalie wants. MAF and Vokoun make a combined 7 million.

they could make it work.

it's not the goalie... it's the coach and his system. until that changes, this wont change.

- drummer829


That is exactly why you take Jones. Erik Johnson has been a disappointment.

They want to trade Stastny and they'll find takers. MacKinnon would solidify their core. He's a better prospect than Seth.

I believe we'll be seeing more than two goals in this game. Maybe a 4-1, 4-2 Pittsburgh.

If we win tonight, I can see us going to Boston and stealing a game, or even two. I'm THAT confident.

- Orpik44




I'm actually shocked Boston is destroying you guys...I thought they would win the series...but beer thought they would take 2 in Pitts like this

Letang + to NYR. I'd do it. You'd have to take on Fleury. That would work well for both teams.
