"This team is looking tired and old. Let's sit the youngest legs on a back to back that's been playing above expectations"Then play POJ. they didnt need to play ruh tonight. Of all the defense POJ is the last one who needs a night off. Sit one of the old men.
I get what you are saying. Just frustrating to see Ruh come in and have a rough game like this as POJ is starting to improve each game.
I thought the difference would be Rutta and Petry, but this Petry ain't that
Pretty much my line of thinking. He knows how to get the best out of mediocre players.That's one thing sully is good for. He's good with no talent, he's not that good with high end talent. I wanted him fired, now I don't because the end is nigh for Crosby and Malkin era. Yea, I know that just signed contracts.
Waive Ruh after his game. No one will claim him. Bring Smith up.
Well that 2nd period was much better. Tough when your goalie gives up 2 goals on 3 shots or whatever.CDS is a fine backup. The team in front of him needs to play better.
Poehling starting to fade. I would like to see more from him
I don't get it, but Sully hates POJ and will do everything to hinder his growth.Then play POJ. they didnt need to play ruh tonight. Of all the defense POJ is the last one who needs a night off. Sit one of the old men.

Just like in the real world. All about money and statusI don't get it, but Sully hates POJ and will do everything to hinder his growth.
But keep playing Dumo, who is BY FAR our worst defenseman.
Gotta think a lot of it has to do with who he’s being asked to play with. Caggiula is so meh. Galchenyuk has forever tainted #18Poehling starting to fade. I would like to see more from him

He’s been fine.
Tough when the team in front of you is playing uninspired hockey, Crosby included. Our stars are getting old, they’re not going to show up every night anymore.Well that 2nd period was much better. Tough when your goalie gives up 2 goals on 3 shots or whatever.
He is good enough for now but we still need a better back up and keep drafting good defensemen as our 1rst round picks IMO..CDS is a fine backup. The team in front of him needs to play better.
Yeah, we'll see if it's 1 game..... doubt itZucker didnt work on Genos wing either.....right ( people were hellbent on that)
And you are saying put Kap with Geno.....lol heads explode (which i would be fine with Kap there for the record)
Its one game, Carter who was our 2nd leading scoring last year is on Geno's wing for a game, we are missing not 1 but 2 top 6 guys.................., big deal.
The defense has looked decent this year.
Team defense has been awful the last four periods but whatever.
we are I think 29th or 30th so far in shots allowed, thats not recipe for any kind of success, I understand its a team defense, but these dman just can not make that first pass clean or to skate out with the puck to allow the game in the opposite direction, once they are pinned down its too lateThe defense is significantly improved, but swapping Matheson and Marino for Petry and Ruhwedel/POJ isn't going to take this team from a 1st round loser to a cup contender.
Poulins skating has impressed me. I like his urgency. If this is his style I want him on the roster.He’s been fine.
Hard to judge anyone based on these two games tbh. They just completely shit the bed.
Sure lets see some more but I dont understand you singling out Poehling, there are far greater issues tonight.Poehling starting to fade. I would like to see more from him
Lets jump off a bridge than, this is blasphemy.Yeah, we'll see if it's 1 game..... doubt it
I don't disagree with that. It's just nice when your goalie doesn't let in 2 out of 3 shots of a period is all.Tough when the team in front of you is playing uninspired hockey, Crosby included. Our stars are getting old, they’re not going to show up every night anymore.
Late 1st rounders have a 50% chance of playing 200+ games in the NHL. A fraction of that become actual difference makers.He is good enough for now but we still need a better back up and keep drafting good defensemen as our 1rst round picks IMO..
