It’s a mistake to keep that line together. We don’t need to see anything else. There is 0 chance Galchenyuk is going to catch fire. He tried, now he needs to just make the call.

Everyone else at the ASG - "This is so cool!"
Geno - "You come play for Penguins, I tell Jimmy, he trade for you."

he was an okay playmaker before when he picked his head up. But this stat kind of tells the story

Horny stepping up in the absence of ASJ.
Horny for line one please.
Remove 18

So NYR and CAR with two pro scouts at the game tonight...all I can say is that if they’re potentially scouting any of our players for a potential trade, they’ll walk away saying no thanks...

Again, it is one hockey game. It is the first one this trio has started together in the NHL ever.
And it is now a 2-2 game. Against a team that we think we should be able to beat even as shorthanded as we are.
Suppose I just have a good deal more patience than you on this one
.I'd do it again against Montreal even if it doesn't pan out tonight.

no, he's just a good hockey player. I mean it's nice that he plays well after injuries, but it's not like it's atypical for him to play well.

I know Marino's had a rough one but i'd love to know out of Sully/Recchi which one put Simon on the ice on a 4on4. HE'S NOT THIS 2-WAY MONSTER YOU THINK HE IS!!!!...to whoever sent him.

Horny can’t do left. Rust shouldn’t do left.

With this game how it is going and the several rounds that plopped down right in front of Dell, you just have to get Horny out there because he is always setup in front of the goalie mouth.
Gotta make that happen.
Gotta make that happen.
Only way it's going to be passable is if Geno is in god mode, and counting on that as a coaching strategy seems shortsighted. If he's not, it will look like a cluster because Galchenyuk doesn't help drive play and instead just reacts. Phil reacted because he was lazy a lot of the time. Chucky, as all correctly note, tries, but he's just low IQ as @Scandale du Jour keeps noting. You can't have that and expect Geno to drive play more regularly. I mean, there are game with Jake or McCann or even Simon where Geno isn't god mode or looks off, and he's still driving play because the unit is attacking. I just hope Sully recognizes it sooner than later and without lasting effect.
EDIT: I'm not sure he'll be proactive. It may take the Pens being blown out. BUT, let's be honest. Geno's 5 on 5 game and production with any LW not named Galckenyuk is light years ahead of what it's been with Galchenyuk. No point to arguing WHY. As a coach, you make the change.

Simon is terrible. It's comical to see him consistently being used in all situations like he's this amazing all around player, the guy is just so bland defensively and his vision...dude has the worst tunnel vision on the team. He's just this spastic guy on the ice.

Call me crazy, but I think Malkin took that penalty on purpose. he wanted to create more chaos

We shouldn’t be surprised if we win but this has been a big grind of a battle all game for us.
Yet it’s 2-2 going into the 3rd.

This team rules.
Bourque made a comment the other night. The crowd and team expects to win at home. Hasn’t been that way since 16-17.

You can see the Pens are playing hard and getting shots. But without some key finishers ala Sid and Jake, Pens have to work a little harder and get some ugly goals. Oh well, GMJR will make a move at some point. Not sure the TDL will work.

What does the 2-2 score have to do with anything. This is as bad as Malkin (and Malkin-Rust) has looked all year. It's not about Galchenyuk deserving a chance. It's about leveraging Malkin. And, unfortunately, it's been clear for a while that one of those things has to give.

I'm under the impression that we are terrible tonight
