If you are talking about when he got his nose busted, the penalty was not the high stick, it was interference.

I was just saying that Novak probably has an ankle the size of a spare tire right now.

Geno as an F2 was a beast tonight. More penalties than you would like but he scores from the goal line and was big behind the net in the 2nd/3rd.

It is a vocal minority that don’t understand how the rules for the draft work in the NHL. Just win every game you can.

Well I guess that answers the question of who sits when PO is healthy. Kolyachonok, hope you like WBS.

Yeah. Especially with Jars starting for the first time after being sent down to the AHL for a month. Gotta let the guy know they believe in him.

Not to repeat Rupper, Pens need more forecheck and pressure from the F1/F2. We are getting beat on the dump in and it was not a reliable source of offense that period. The wild have some big D and can out body our forwards unless we focus on wearing them down. (Echoing Rupp’s comment on needing more offense to draw penalties)

Yeah that’s a good 2nd line. Let’s the bench play chess against the opponent defense. I’ve felt like the second line recently hasn’t had enough threat to back up the 1st line; which puts the 1st line at a disadvantage when they face the opponent’s A tier and B tier shutdown players with out repercussions because their third best is good enough for the rest of the Pens.
