I will keep hoping that Shultz will be anything but awful defensman....he can only survive if our forecheck is working and he does not get pressured, also he is better off with Jarry who handles those dump ins, with Murray he has to go back for the puck and thats where he is just so bad

Playing with Jack Johnson further exposes this issue, but it's there regardless of who is on his left side.

With this roster (one line that can threaten on its own and one defensive pairing that doesn't kill everything), it's about wins, not style points.
For sure, but I mean from both teams. Just a jumbled, sloppy mess. I don't know if it's the Pens having a bad start, or the Wings bringing them down to their level, or the ice being awful--or all of the above. :laugh:

Puck retrievals are like a puzzle and Marino is basically a masterclass puzzler atm how he can eat it/secure it using stick and body then outlet it to a teammate almost every time successfully. It's really an amazing skill.

Oh my is Marino poised with the puck. A regular Martin Skoula.

I think Molinari made a Larry Murphy when he was on the Pens comparison. Others here have said a more tenacious Paul Martin.

High praise. And not unwarranted.

What a PATHETIC pass from Gally.

The injured players are the only thing keeping him in the lineup.

AG just casually tossing a half-hearted pass across the ice that's picked off at the blueline, his 3rd or 4th giveaway so far.

I want to see a replay of why that's icing but they're showing something something penguins michigan like anyone cares

For sure. At least no one is comparing him to a young Ian moran
