They switched him from wing to center right? Guess he’s a center.

Yeah. I just looked. Taylor Haase reports on them a lot and the last lineup she showed had him at center.

Possibly. Rust put up some pretty pedestrian numbers in the A so it’s conceivable but Rusty is a pretty big exception to the rule that if you don’t produce in the AHL you won’t produce in the NHL

Yah, it's definitely rare. I think it's just a combination of his first true NA season and WBS not being a talented team

I think they all have Covid. Has there been a single player diagnosed with Covid since they changed the rules on it? hahah I don't think there has been. Knowing the high numbers in North America and how f'n crazy contagious it is I think its impossible that zero players have caught since the rule change.

Will we see DOC now I wonder?

Actually, yes. Kyle Connor just got out of protocol today, missed 3 games last week.

There ya go...first ones I heard of and Connor was asymptomatic. If they played on an American team we probably wouldn't of known. Even though there's pretty much zero restrictions in most places in Canada now there's still a fair bit of testing going on.

Probably. He wasn't the one that paid the price, he is just a whiny brat. If not for him pulling lacrosse goals and meaningless dipty do poop, I don't think anyone would care about him. He tops out at a mid range two C but thinks he's a franchise player.

I don’t know how his goals have anything to do with it. Terry came into the scrum and grabbed Beagle, Beagle decided he didn’t like that. No big deal.

Yeah cause 50 points in 64 games is definitely not good.

As a rule, I never jump into a scrum and facewash someone I am not ready to fight. Blown out of proportion because Zegras is such a whiny emotional baby.

What Subban did to Wahlstrom was BS but this one was handled well by Beagle.

I didn't say he isn't good, mid range second line center is a good player. But 50 points in 64 games playing most of the time on their top line and receiving 79% offensive zone starts and winning less than 40% of his faceoffs tells me he needs to shut up and work on becoming a better all around player.

Like practice faceoffs more than lacrosse moves where you could easily just score via wrap around.

I'm always fascinated by how emotional and riled up you get over everything anyone says that doesn't match your feelings.

I was speaking in generalities, not making a tough guy statement. I hope you find something meaningful in your life that will help you be less of an angry weirdo someday. Hang in there.

I agree if you face wash someone you should be able to be punched.

But I love the lacrosse goals, or the ovi flaming stick. I want someone out here acting like Terrell owens skating around with a sharpie in his sock so after he scores he can sign his stick and throw it into the seats for a fan. Score a hattrick on the road and do a kovalev moon walk across the opponents centre I’ve logo. That will create a better rivalry than forcing us to watch the same stupid playoff matchups for years on end.

Yea you know, those Geno win the faceoff forward go around the net spinarama backhand. Very easy to come by.

So you’re saying it’s Beagles fault for falsely identifying the level of Terry’s aggression? Nah (frank) that, don’t go charging in like the Calvary if you’re not willing to fight. It’s also Beagle who has a total of 9 career fights, not exactly Bob Probert. I don’t understand how Terry didn’t get the extra 2 and game for instigating the fight in the final 5 minutes.

No poop when I played at IUP our team had our divisions leading goal scorer and he got his 30th? Something goal he actually did pull a sharpie out, sign his stick and toss it into the stands. Funny as hell, he got benched the rest of the game.

Zegras is a young stud (only in his sophomore season) and perennial All-Star in the making, my goodness people. No matter what you think of him saying what he said you can't deny the kid is a talent. Sheesh.

hahaha fantasy hockey is the reason I know most things about most players not on the Pens.

...and not a good time of year for you to be losing a fantasy stud due to covid, especially when they're not sick at all hahah

I’m not saying anything about his talent, and his goals are awesome. To me you can’t poke the goalie in a 5-0 game, then have your buddy charge in gloves up and blame the other guy afterward. There’s literally articles floating around that say nothing but “Beagle cross checks Zegras, then beats up Terry”, with absolutely no context.
