Why Malkin continues to play the point on the power play when we have offensive defensemen like Whitney, Goligoski and Letang completely confuses me.

If Malkin and Crosby are going to be on the same line on the power play, they should have Malkin as Sid's winger.

In light of MT's preference for shuffling line pairings, why not try Sid and Geno paired together at even strength (not just on PP).

I realize that Geno is a center and has good chemistry with Sykora and Fedotenko, but the team has depth at center. Staal, Talbot, TK and Zigo are all centers.

There is so much talk of getting an elite winger for Sid when we could look to the other superstar we already have.

Maybe the powerplay would be more effective too if Sid and Geno were better able to set each other up.

It's pretty pathetic when a team ices a line-up like Crosby, Malkin, Staal, Satan and Whitney on the power play and can't score.

I'm not sure if that's entirely Yeo's doing, but he has to take at least some of the responsibility.

I'm a fan of getting rid of Yeo. Our special teams are a disaster and they weren't exactly solid last season, either.

I'm pretty much at a lost for words myself. I'm not quite sure what the Pens can do to turn things around. We're an extremely young club with a Stanley Cup hangover and our emotions are getting the best of us, as displayed by Crosby himself. I think they are dealing with high expectation and much criticisms. Not to mention Therrein's odd decisions (Sabi for MAF, and back again). Hopefully someone can step up and get us back on track.

That game was bad. I have been most disappointed in Crosby.
he is a great player but his fight was not even a fight... He went after someone that did not seem to know he was coming. He needs to man up. Does he need anger management????
