I’ve been crying for awhile that the Pens need to change the way they play…they’re figured out…they better come out soon with a different style to surprise teams or we’re one and done again
Playing well would be a good start.

My theory is Margot Robbie is in the crowd and the boys are distracted

I don't believe that is the case. That'd be very unprofessional if so.

I feel that Ruhwedel's been trending downward defensively for too long of a stretch to ignore.
He should sit.
He was competent for much longer this year than in the past, but he's fallen off a cliff lately. But everyone on D has looked like classic Petts when pressured by a forecheck tonight. They'll need to make some adjustments if they play the Rags in the playoffs to account for this.

This is just boring hockey too…it’s like watching your son’s little league team play the Yankees…

Yup, it's been boring for the majority of the year outside of an early stretch and spurts in games. We'll never know if it's the roster with Sully being cemented into his position. If they want the slightest chance of making any noise this year they would fire their coach tomorrow.

No adjustment unless you put the pressure on their defense, the book is on Pens just put the puck behind the defense and press them,

The Pens have a lot of issues…mostly, they have to play the perfect game to win, and Jarry has to outplay the opposing goalie…chances of that happening for four series this POs? Slim to none…this game a s BUF game shows what happens against a speedy team when the team Is outskated to pucks…Sully needs to have learn how to play a trap…when you’re outgunned, trap…it’s work for Trotz a lot lol…that assumes your players can finish however when they generate a TO from a NZ clog lol…

That’s why they need to trap in the POs…they’re are a number of teams who can out-foot speed them and then out muscle them for pucks

Sully ain't trapping. He'll go down with his system.
