Goaltending is still iffy.

Their depth is not what it was.

Contenders, yes. Serious contenders?......probably not.

They aren't in same convo as the top contenders IMO but their forward and defence depth is currently better than the team that won the cup in 2017.

Jarry is having a Vézina nominee worthy year if he keeps it up the second half

Tristan Jarry is the key He is playing like Carey Price did before he became the goalie for Team Canada This guy is the real deal He is confident and unflappable Look for him to emerge as the top goalie in the NHL in the future

I am still worried about the D. There is no back up goaltender as DeSmith is terrible and Domingue is in a walking boot. The Zucker experiment has failed. Kapanen is too streaky. Carter has been a blessing.

Allen has favored PENS 3 straight years vs Isles and Habs 2 embarrassing first round exits and one horrible playin Exit! So do not trust biased so called experts with your hard earned money. Pens entertaining at times but their D and JerrY has chocked it up recently in the playoffs

If they get past the 1st round, they'll go to the finals.

Hey Broad Street, Have you ever seen the Flyers win the Cup?
I'll be 45 and I will have never seen that! How many how the Penguins won since then?
Get over yourself. Pittsburgh is not Bettmans pet project.

When will we see Jack Eye in a Habs uni?


Another savage on the back-end, the X man was a great under the radar signing by Bergy, it won't be long before we see him sleeping guys like that in the show.


You gotta be built tough if you're coming out the Hammer.

Hey Flyers Fan,

Your team had a good thing going with Hextall but the inpatient Mickey mucks in the front office let
Him go before he could finish the job. Keep crying about Bettman. The noise of losers.
