Why is that not a penalty shot...unreal

If they didn't call a penalty on that I may have given up watching NHL hockey!

Both winning and losing can become habitual. I get wanting your players to be rested, but they've been struggling offensively for quite some time now. I get nervous about them taking the 'Don't worry, we'll turn it on when the playoffs start." stance.
It isn't always that automatic

I hate that. Going in with momentum is huge. Everyone needs to be ready and working together. The Isles haven't been.

I'm not even surprised anymore.

Why would they take him. He's been horrible lately.

They would take him for the same reason the Isles won't make him available. As bad as he's been, and he has flat out stunk this year, he is seen as a serviceable dman with a cheap price tag

I actually don't think he was that bad at the start of the season. He has certainly gotten worse.

He definitely has. It just seems like he gets too much TOI at this point. He's in over his head. Bolduc could/should challenge for his role next year

How does Pulock fan on that shot? Total loss of any momentum they had.

This is like a pickup game. I really hope they can turn it on when they need to.

JFC Brock, how could you pass up shooting there?

Ugh. Pathetic.

Bruins up, Pens up. Isles might as well bring up a bunch of sound tigers if they’re gonna keep playing like this.

It's the Bailey effect.

They'd be more motivated.

They may on Saturday.

FIRE LOU AND TROTZ RIGHT NOW THEY SUCK

100%. At this point doesn’t look like we can improve on 4th so just rest everyone and hope they can turn on the switch. Seems like that’s what they’re doing anyway.

Pens got 8 on the buffalo goalie we couldn't solve
