Canes vs Penguins 7pm


Recommended Posts

Rod is a great coach but at this point he’s just hoping that the top line or defense wins us games.

The other three lines are not providing any offense whatsoever.

Load up the second line with Teravainen, throw Drury on the third to complete the forechecking line, and put Svech on the fourth with the hope that he can take advantage of easier matchups.

Another scoring drought from the forwards.

Pittsburgh is old and slow, yet here we are.

Kuzys line is bad right now and necas has gone ice cold. I hate to say this but move gutz back to that line tonight. It may open it up.

Disagree. Our 3rd line is forecheck… like all the lines should be doing nearly every single shift. No they don’t always provide goals. But they provide our much needed offensive pressure. 4 is decent at forechecking. 1-2 are more run and gun, neither line is setting up forechecks.

Can’t win the cup like that and I’ll die on that hill.

Need contribution from all lines because eventually one of the top two lines is going to get shutdown.

Just look at Vegas last year, their 3C had 11 goals in the playoffs.

Expecting one or two lines to carry you to the cup is a recipe for disaster. Only way it could potentially work is if the defense contributes at an elite level.

We’re seeing first hand tonight what happens when the top line doesn’t score.

Canes actually played a good 2nd other than the goal where Pesce screened Kuchie. SOG was 15-5, Pucks just didn’t find their way to the net. I believe the puck luck changes and we score in the third.
