I’m not sure a coach can really make a huge difference positively, but they have the ability the derail it with personnel and set up choices. Regardless, I’m just venting because the PP has gone to hell right in time for the stretch run for like the 7th straight season.
This is basically how I feel about coaches in general. A good coach isn't gonna coach a bad team to the Cup. A bad coach can absolutely torpedo a good team's Cup chances though.

Much like the Leafs and our team, the Blue will be undone against a good, quick forecheck.

It's impressive how much we dominate in shots but not on the actual scoreboard.

If the NHL ever changes the rules to allow no goaltenders, Pens would be unstoppable.
It's almost like shots don't really matter nearly as much when your roster is full of guys who are terrible at shooting. :laugh:

If the Penguins didn't have such issues with production from their 2nd line, I'd be completely content with keeping Kapanen and just playing him with Carter until he gets out of this funk.

Goalies must loving playing against the Pens. We usually inflate their save percentages without them having to actually do much work. Just kind of stand there and the Pens will fire 30+ shots at the chest logo.
