It would be nice to see, but my team is having a hard time hitting the broad side of a barn at the moment.

Goalies around the league are using the Pens to fatten up their stats.

The Pens are primed to turn things around, this might be the start

why do you say that?

Raycroft sucks. Period. Almost as bad as the freaking' technical prowess of the Fannation T&R mods and techies....

The Pens will probably make him look like he should be the west's allstar starting goalie.

They've been in a free fall for about a month now, they are to good to be that bad.

Disturbing game last night. After the 3-0 lead some of the Pens looked like they shifted into neutral (once again). You sure could tell that Dupuis and Fedotenko weren't on the ice.

The passing is completely suspect. Hardly anyone is looking for a pass and then when they are skating to the goal they try to pass to a guy covered by his defender instead of shooting. Shoot the darn puck and stop this foolish pass fest. Some are starting to look like one-trick ponies.

Hate to say it but there are too many standing around waiting for someone else to start things up instead of being a self motivator.

Whitney's game was abominable last night. Couldn't keep the puck in and too hesitant to shoot on the power play.

Now that that is off my chest.......Go Pens.

Pens fans can only hope for a good solid game.

Does anyone else on here think its a complete joke that all these Montreal players are even in the All-Star game, let alone starting?

30 seconds of fame

Should have never shipped Malone. What we wouldn't give for a winger with some grit right now.

And why did we ship Bugsy again? What we wouldn't give for a winger with a little grit right now.

He looked awfully effing good against my Blackhawks last night. Can't say whether that's the real him or not, but holding the No. 1 scoring offense to one goal (while standing on your head) ain't easy.

I agree with you on the mods and techies, though.

i think alot of the times they are passing way too much and not taking shots. i think alot of big changes are on the way. i was very disappointed with the signing of staal. i think we could get alot more value by trading him. they should look to trade guys that aren't doing anything (satan, gill, bouchet,) that have a little value and maybe whitney, maybe a team with need a dman enough to give us something good for him.

it'd be nice to have him back playing at the form he was last year but have you seen his stats lately?
