Popular Post -Vintage Canuck- Posted January 10, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted January 10, 2023 Since we're playing the Penguins, here is a classy move by them -- Penguins fly entire team to be with Kris Letang at his father's funeral: The Penguins had just defeated the Coyotes, 4-1, on Sunday night, ending a six-game losing streak. Their travel plan was to immediately return to Pittsburgh, where they haven’t been since leaving for the Winter Classic on Dec. 31. Instead, they traveled through the middle of the night to Montreal, arriving at 4 a.m. Then, they slept for a brief period of time before attending the funeral of Claude Fouquet, father of Kris Letang. While the Penguins were on the Western swing of the road trip that took them through Las Vegas and Phoenix, some of the team’s veterans came together with the coaching staff to discuss a mutual desire to attend Fouquet’s funeral in Quebec. Mike Sullivan was not only on board with the plan but was one of the people who spearheaded the decision. The Penguins were then set to return home later today, where they won’t have much time to prepare for Tuesday’s game. But then, for this group, taking care of teammates is more important than obtaining a certain amount of rest before a game. This is a particularly vivid illustration of how much Letang means to everyone on this team. https://www.hockeyfeed.com/nhl-news/penguins-fly-entire-team-to-be-with-kris-letang-at-his-father-s-funeral 12 5 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldFaithfulCap Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 We saw Horvat take a knock last game. That would definitely suck but can't risk him with trade value. OEL had that knock too, wouldn't be sad to see him sit and stillman come in. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krinjer33 Posted January 10, 2023 Share Posted January 10, 2023 Can we just leave Miller in Pittsburgh after the game? Hell, let’s just send him over to their bench beforehand. Maybe he will give a lazy backcheck for Bo’s 30th of the year. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll probably score a tonne but this Penguins team is fast - predicting the OEL-Myers duo get blased as a combined -6 again. 5-3 Pens in a low scoring game lol Yet we can't afford to buy OEL out somehow. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont need to buy him out, we just need to give him 1 role and let him stick to it. Last year, his commandment was be a shutdown defenseman, and he did it admirably. This year, he's being asked to drive offence, pinch more aggressively, and be a threat in transition, and he's putting up 0.5ppg. If he and Myers are paired up, let them do what they did last year, and be a shutdown pair. If he's paired with someone less chaotic, let him drive offence. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldFaithfulCap Posted January 10, 2023 Author Share Posted January 10, 2023 Forget Crosby and Malkin, Guentzel is the real Canuck killer wow - he also missed the 1st meeting this year. Look at that shot % Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
