We’ve been a better team in the first outside of the first few minutes…

Sid!! Nothing like a late back breaker…and Petts has been terrific

Well Berlin is a lot different from most german cities so if you want to experience Germany then I'd definitly recommend you to see some of the other cities as well. Have you been out west as well in your prior trips?

No I haven't, that's the one area of Berlin I haven't been to yet. I've been up north in Hamburg and Dusseldorf and south in Munich and Nuremberg in addition to Berlin, but I've never tried a city out West.

My friend recommended I try out Cologne as well but I'm not sure when I'll get to it.

This is the most awkward commentary I have ever heard. There is 0 synergy between the 3 of them and it sounds like they are watching a stream and are on a low quality zoom call together where they hear each other with some delay

Crosby's leading the league in 5v5 goals right now I believe.

Also it can't be understated how good Pettersson has been this year. I honestly don't know if he's even really doing anything differently this year than last year, he's just doing it way better and getting way better results.

He looks more confident, but getting the results will breed confidence.

Well if you have been to Düsseldorf then Köln is a must as well! The two cities have quite the rivalry going on and Köln is clearly superior in my totally non biased view. Try to go there during german carnival if you want to have 5 days of full out day drinking and partying without anyone judging you

Rakell's goal differential at 5v5 is downright asinine, he's at 24 GF and 7 GA in 21 games so far. It doesn't matter what line he has been on, that line just produces like crazy when he's on it.
It's weird how that's worked out. I figured his game would work out to be the exact opposite to where he would make some nice offensive plays but not necessarily be the greatest contributor to controlling play.

He's been the exact opposite of that really. If the finishing improves with him watch out.

Rakell's this weird player that is probably gonna hover around like 45-50pts, but the extra dimension he adds to whatever scoring line he's on boosts that line's effectiveness and production by a ton. Super odd, but he's so good.

And some folks still insist he isn't a reason for that because he's not always showing up in the scoring summary.

He's a perfect example of a player who does the little things for a line that allow it to be successful, even if he's not racking up points.

He's Dominik Simon if Simon actually had top-6 talent.

He's a perfect complement to this team's top-6, regardless of whether you play him with Crosby or Malkin.

Gonna be hard to get much more than 50 with him never getting #1 pp time anyways.

If he hits 50 points and continues this all around play I think we should all be tremendously pleased with that given his usage.
