DOC you were getting a penalty there so might as well really come across hard on the hands/stick there on Raymond.

Talk about an up and down period for Letang. Mostly down. Just make the easy play.

Bad start early.Tentative play,not enough pressure in the Detroit Zone,too many giveaways.Looked very tight.
Letang responsible directly for both Detroit Goals.Again its his awful decision making.His Goal doesn't wash that kind of stuff that costs his team.
Ned got beat on a couple of shifty plays,might be overplaying on them.He just has to settle down a bit.
The PP was no threat as usual.Not going to get addressed or become a factor.They can't get it straightened out.
Have to state the obvious but this 2nd Period needs a focused,more intense and sharper effort.Time to step it up.

Anyone ever buy a charity bag? If so, any luck with landing an autographed jersey or anything really cool?

Have bought one every year for last 6 years. Last two years got a jersey, first year my puck was an 87 puck. Jerseys were JMFC and Dumo. Pucks are 87, 71, Riikola... Rust?... aand I'd have to go check.

I think the strokes have taken a toll on Letang's mental capacity.

He's basically been that way through out his career but the strokes didn't help.

Shot after the whistle. Every single team would have went after that player, regardless of intent. Pens just skate on by…….. not liking this effort so far

Detroit is flying through the Neutral Zone in transition.Pens have to stop tuning the puck over when they get into the Offensive Zone.

That’s pretty solid! My plan is to hoard most of the stuff for Christmas presents for my kids. Nice early start. :lol:

Pens not competing anywhere close to what we've seen for the past stretch.This entire Period has been a disaster.
