3 breakaway chances with nothing to show for it.Jake thinking instead of letting it rip.

How does Jarry lose his stick so often? Get that MFer some “Stickem” or some George Brett Pine Tar!

Oh goody, another power(less) play coming up.

Pass pass pass, go back and retrieve, rinse repeat

That’s not interference, the Sabre tripped over his won stick.

These guys and the unnecessary passes. What is the coaching staff telling them? They don’t do anything to generate offense.

Seriously? 1 shot on 4 minutes of power play time? For gods sake, that's 5 shots per period, which is horrific enough, but that's with a man advantage. Who doesn't see the **** problems here and think we need change? I really don't get the insane levels of stupidity running through this organization.

Insanity. Sully keeps saying it will fix itself.

Close game with the PP having a chance to game a difference and absolute garbage again.Zero accountability for its negative play.
Jarry played well in the last 10 minutes of the 2nd to keep it in range.
The breakaways getting stopped is just good goaltending from Lukkonen except for Jake trying to get cute.
Seems like the Pens weren't getting the better of it as the 2nd Period wore on.
Puustinen not only getting zero PP time but didn't get a lot of even strength shifts.No reasonable explanation for it.

Pustinen must have caught a bus back to Wilkes Barre after the first. 7 shifts, 4+ minutes

Has Raks ever really been solid on the PP? Pusti was working and him not getting a look again is bananas. Take eller of the 2nd PP move Raks there and get Pusti back in the mix top unit.

He makes 5m a year and has been in the league for years. That's why Rak over Puus. That's all that matters to the imbecile behind the bench. I know I've been saying it for over 5 years, but he is a garbage coach and has needed to be gone for a long long time.

Definitely. Trots is the antidote to excitement.

I think Sully does allot of things well. But his player usage at times is absolutely terrible.
