hornqvist was a big add but IDK I haven't seen this team's PP look this bad in years. i mean Crosby/Kuntz/Malkin/Letang/Insert Literally Any Player Here should be converting more than ~8% of the time.

solution: bennett on the PP (not kidding)

Well, that's too bad. They've been playing pretty well lately. Hopefully they didn't peak early or anything.

Most of these non-football sports that's what it's about. Seasons will have their high or low points you just have to minimize the low points. Like the years when the Orioles were real good way back when there was one I heard about they never lost more than three in a row. That's what you have to do. Avoid the bad skids.

And it's a win!!! That's what I want to see. But this team still can't crack the top three in the division cause whenever they're playing well the Rangers are playing better. I can't stand that.

Were they wanting Crosby to loving defy the no-change rule?

crosby not as reliable/elite as gretzky, lemieux or messier because he doesn't go on the ice when the coach tells him not to

to be fair, they were saying he should have been out there on the o-zone faceoff before the icing, two headed monster style with malkin, which is fair. but that's on johnston, not crosby

Maybe he's trying to trick the goalies by shooting really lovely shots, worked for me in floor hockey, I shot the worst shots and somehow they always got in the net
