If the Pens are going to lose at least play fun hockey. I want to see Karlsson being a maestro out there, like he was at the beginning of the season. Now he just looks like Justin Schultz.
Good Point.Yotes were definitely there to be had.
Karlsson's Play is mystifying.Hard to figure out whats going on with him.
He's been bad his whole career on his side of center ice and those 100ft passes he makes eitheron his teammate's stick in stride or intercepted. He's a high risk/high reward guy and doesn't give much of an effort defensively. I haven't seen any difference in his game from Ottawa or SJ, except he looks rather indecisive on the PP.

At least they made a call for the guy that hooked Zohorna. I was surprised they called 3 in a row against the Habs.

Again a guy in front generated a PPG.Not rocket science.

The PP is back. People in front of the goalie make it easier to score, who knew?

Credit where credit’s due. They came out ready for the 2nd period. Hope they can finish this period strong and come out with their hair on fire for the 3rd

I was wrong. They can forecheck. At least for one period.

Dominant Period.2 PP Goals,strong effort,controlled the play.Night and Day after the 1st Period.
Ned had a couple of big saves when he needed them.
Karlsson was firing lasers all period,better play from him.
Guentzel and Crosby were just outstanding,Habs had no answer for them.

So far so good…..would have been nice if we had a couple more ticks on the clock that period.
