Pens are not winning many 50/50 pucks.

PP with weak,lazy and mindless decisions every opportunity.
Canes took it to the Pens all period and had them in trouble
Harkins has been the Pens 2nd best forward tonight.
Malkin has Zero interest in competing in this game tonight.
Pens better stop giving up the puck in the neutral zone.

I don’t even know what to say about this team anymore. The fact that there is no accountability with the coaching staff makes me want to stop watching this team.

Tough sledding out there. Both teams playing to get to OT for at least the loser point.

We have as much a chance to win this game as Rakell does of scoring a goal

if you told me in October we would be 6 points behind the Canes and 3 points behind the Devils just a few days before Christmas I’d have loved to hear that.

Letang started the season out strong but has gotten progressively worse. The turnovers….

Kris Letang continues to find ways to put his team in peril with absolutely disastrous turnovers.What is the thinking behind that play by him?

The refs suck as well. The standard isn’t the standard (Mike Tomlin). Ah well, this is about the time the Canes take the lead from us.

Should call embellishment too, the Cane falls to a knee well after Letang stopped tickling him.

Correction: that was Karlsson, just looked exactly like something Letang would had done.

Why do you feel the need to take a penalty on Jordan Martinook getting by you briefly?

Karlsson has been invisible all night until he decides to make a terrible pinch leading to him taking a penalty in a tight game

Bill Parcells used to say "you can't fix stupid."

He’s been very solid and consistent. Calming figure back there

I wonder how many of Letang’s shots have hit the guy right in front of him. It seems like every shot.
