That was a bad play by Letang for sure, but POJ and Crosby gave him literally zero help there.

POJ was just standing there while Nichushkin was taking up any sort of passing lane and Crosby didn't cover Compher as Compher broke towards the net. Both of those guys need to be supporting Letang more there, Letang wasn't getting any help.

32 minutes is what we will get tonight. Of solid pens hockey.
Meh. the Avs are a good team. They're gonna get their push. Impossible to play 60 minutes all your way against that kind of team.

That said, Sully hockey is unable to defend and that's kinda the issue here. They'll get their push and we'll miss assignments because that's how Sully do
 
Letang with a dumb pinch almost leading to an oddman rush and a dumb turnover to give up the goal since they took a 2-0 lead.

For a guy who is supposed to anchor this blueline, he sucks.

Probably because they were anticipating an easy-out along the boards instead of messing around for no reason.

Avs are regularly using Jack Johnson and missing Landeskog. They’re also playing Galchenyuk.

Pens have no excuse.

Letang didn't have an easy out because Nichushkin was in the passing lane to POJ and the wingers were covered.

Letang was trying to gather the puck and pin it along the boards because he didn't really have an outlet to where he was sitting. Crosby was just sitting at the top of the circle while POJ was sitting behind Nichushkin, neither of those guys were supporting Letang at all.
 
Sully better not be thinking about playing DOC over 9 minutes. Think about his future well-being. He’s just a boy!
