@AGretz Agreed, he’s making Letang look good out there though, I wish Letang could start driving it more, 3 games in a row without a shot on goal.

Big positive out of this game: Girard looks great and the Letang-Girard pairing is having another strong game. That would be a HUGE development.

@kelsey_surmacz4 Truthfully I’d rather have Chinaknov on the power point than Malkin, let’s start there and/or get Girard on the pp 1 or pp 2 in place of Letang, just for some offensive push.

The Pens have scored a fair number of five-on-three power play goals recently. However, they have not looked very threatening at five-on-four since the big guys came back. Really think they need to consider switching things up. Too many forced plays and not enough movement.

@downwiththen @PenguinsJesus Forgot to add this but counting tonight he only has 2 SOG total in the last 6, maybe that’s helping his defense. Also Girard is everywhere again tonight.

@PENGSNOW1 @PenguinsJesus More than two games. He’s been playing solid defence and tonight he’s been great. He’s made 3 or 4 notable plays tonight alone.

Have Kris Letang and Sam Girard finally turned a corner? They went from a metrics blackhole to…productive in not very long.

@JoshYohe_PGH Girard is everywhere and Novak is finally having a very good game he just needs some points.

Girard robbed by Vasilevskiy. Easily Girard's best game as a Penguin. Finally starting to look comfortable.

@downwiththen @PenguinsJesus Check corsi before those 2 games.

@downwiththen @PenguinsJesus 2 games yes I agree with Girards help.

@PENGSNOW1 @PenguinsJesus Whatever you say. Letangs making his own plays and is playing amazing defensively these past few games.

@JoshYohe_PGH Not good at all, one thing additional, get Malkin off the point on the power play.

Rust turnover and a shorty for Tampa just 11 seconds into the second. 2-2.

@TrumpsHurricane What films?

Actor John Leguizamo tells ICE supporters to unfollow him and stop watching his films. What’s your Response to him ??

@GinoHard_ Stanley got more than he bargained for, Brady is one tough hombre.

BRADY TKACHUK AND LOGAN STANLEY DROP THE GLOVES 👊

@JoshYohe_PGH That was ugly, but at 18 live and learn.

Bad Kindel turnover leads to a goal. 1-0 Bolts. Penguins aren't in this game at all right now.

@JoshYohe_PGH Chinaknov super smooth. How about Girard that guy is looking phenomenal, he’s actually making Letang look better. Rakell is making it happen and Skinner is doing really good too.

And it's 2-1 Penguins after 1. They played well in the final 10 minutes of the period after a bad start.

@Penguins667187 @PensInsideScoop If he’s still battling an injury and is 39yrs old, then definitely don’t sign him next year, the penguins don’t need drama queens. Btw I bet you sleep with a 71 Malkin shirt.

@PENGSNOW1 @PensInsideScoop He's not "standing around", he's battling an injury at 39 years old. Where do you people come up with this shit? He has 6 points in his last 5 games. Pretty impressive to just "stand around" and get points. Imagine what he'd have if he had someone on his line that can shoot.

#LetsGoPens lines and D-pairs here in Tampa: Chinakhov-Crosby-Rust Novak-Kindel-Malkin Mantha-Rakell-Brazeau Soderblom-Dewar-Acciari Wotherspoon-Karlsson Girard-Letang Shea-Clifton

@DanClarkSports Hockey is by far the most challenging

The Kelce brothers' recent comments about baseball players' conditioning miss the mark. The 162-game grind is far more challenging, both mentally and physically, than an NFL season.

@1Nicdar Springsteen has been radicalized by the left.

🤣 🤣 🤣 President Trump just said Bruce Springsteen looks like a dried up prune as a result of very bad plastic surgery. What are your thoughts?

@ThePoniExpress Disagree, bonds is the best ever.

My take: I expect Konnor Griffin to have a better Pirates career than Barry Bonds. Agree or Disagree.

@0chickenuggets @PensInsideScoop Novak has sucked at Center.

@PensInsideScoop Novak and rakell should swap

@Penguins667187 @PensInsideScoop Truthfully Malkin has been doing a bunch of standing around while Chinaknov has been doing all the work, whereas with Crosby he’s excelled even more. Since the game in Colorado Malkin has looked terrible.

@PensInsideScoop I don't understand the need to take Chinakhov away from 71

@PensInsideScoop @kelsey_surmacz4 Muse continues to switch it up, I’m wondering if they’re trying to jumpstart Novak for the most part, maybe Malkin too, post the Colorado game he hasn’t looked good but he did have 5 SOG vs Detroit.

@ThePoniExpress He’s not smart enough.

If Oneil Cruz ever put it together he could lead the majors in home runs. 50 homer power.
