  1. Malkin is still a very good point producer. His biggest problem is the increased number of errors he makes on the ice.

  2. And Yinz guys do a Great job, I moved down here to Texas about 6 years ago and Yinz have been a great reminder of back Home in the Burgh

  3. Letang has 41 points and is a +9. He has adapted his game. My issue with the D is not with #58. Playing with POJ and graves? And is still a plus player? Unless they want out, they will retire as Pens.

  4. Won't mean much with a good showing for the young guys if sully don't change his plan on not playing young guys

  5. I agree with your take, fellows. I also think this is a bit of the price we pay for 3 cups and 16 consecutive playoff appearances during the Core 3 era. As fans, let's accept it, support them and try to make the best of it.

  6. There is no reason for harkins, nieto or acciari to come back into the line up. They all have injuries and the playoffs are not at stake. Play the kids and let those 3 fully heal.

  7. Let the "kids" play!!! Season is done, they are supposed to be the future for our team. See what you got before summer comes and hopefully Dubas will make the NEEDED changes?? Great show guys.

  8. Why is Letang always on the Ice when a Goal is scored against ? He has NEVER played Defense . They should have dumped him after his first Stroke . Malkin still produces but never has been given good Wingers unlike Sid .
