So obvious. Can't believe it wasn't called, especially on a short handed scoring chance.

Did the referee from the lions/cowboys game learn how to lace up and ref this game? DOC should of gotten a PS or at least a 2 min hook on the bruin player

Pens struggling with the Defensive Coverage on the East-West passes once Boston gets into the Zone.Way too many wide open looks being given up.

Exactly why you move him down. Amazing how making people accountable works. Sully not very good at it unless it is one of his doghouse guys.

I’m of the mindset that if a player does something good after Sully moves him down in the lineup that it is pure coincidence.

The best thing about Graves so far this season is that he owned his mess ups in post game interviews and then he came out and played a great period. That is how it is supposed to work. You hold people accountable and the onus is on them to find a way to contribute. As much as I have ridden Graves this year he has been totally stand up about this and it is obvious he cares! That is good enough for me at this point. He cares. His teammates see it too. He wants to get better. He is not gonna play the denial game and hide. That is worth a lot to me.
