The injuries have caused the Pens to play a very simplified game... Which has helped them... It's not always sexy but it's efficient...

There's also a lot of energy and pace with these young guys. Lil' spark plugs.

Yeah, if they keep playing this composure when everyone gets healthy its gonna be interesting

Geezy Creezy, It's Joseph Blandisi!

wilkes barre is owning the wild lol

Big question: who will be the first to score a goal?

A) Simon
B) Lafferty
C) Tanev
D) Kahun
E) JJ
F) Dumo

Who will be last?
- Thunderbolt

I'm going to go off the board and say Adam Johnson first, then Blandisi. After that, not sure, I need some time to think about it.

An honest question...

Has JJ been all that bad this year so far?

...lights match, tosses and runs.

Another good game by JJ and Marino. The crazy thing is, they work really well together. It's like the old vet and the young rookie have been playing together for a while. Marino is really impressive. His hockey IQ (along with his skating, puck handling, etc.) are outstanding.

I guess it took Kahun a few games to get his game legs back because he looks like a completely different skater now.

This ain't over...

Well, Horny stirs things up (even though he really didn't do anything other than get beat up by three different guys) and Dubnyk and the Wild fall apart afterward.

Oh snap, he's playing?

The refs in this game are (frank)ing ridiculous. Someone's going to get hurt from a cheap shot.

Horn gets cheap shots from three different players and winds up with 4?

Be a wiener with your gloves glued on for 13 years. Real hockey people notice.

Hornqvist makes me embarrassed to be a pens fan.

So I guess it's now legal to ragdoll someone at center ice for no reason as play is going on.

Man Jake does that so well. Not an easy shot to make

Dude Hornqvist ran From 100 ft to run a guy then won’t drop them. Gtfoh I wouldn’t call a penalty either. Drop your gloves.

He’s never fought in his nhl career. Complete (frank)ing joke.

I'm not a fan of staged fights... But like Crosby did the other night where he at least wrestled with a player, I do think occasionally standing up for yourself or for a teammate is important... I'm not a fan of what Horny does if he's not willing to do defend himself or a teammate.

If you don’t want to fight, don’t be a Richard. Works in life and hockey. Hörnqvist can easily play his game and skate to the bench when the whistle blows.

Yeah it's just non stop and predictable. Pretty much every whistle haha

So is there a new rule on this?

I'd say thats the smart move. He does all that in front of the net, everybody gets worked up and wanting a piece of him and he just skates back to the bench after. Today it worked pretty well. Everybody got mad at him and forgot to play the game.
