Penguins @ Leafs - Nov. 14th, 7:30pm - TSN4, TSN 1050

That Clarkson contract alone better get Nonis fired, the guy is terrible, he wouldn't be a great AHL player at this point never mind NHL.

 

[ZBBM]

Cody, doing the one thing he does very well.

Phaneuf again standing in front of the net guarding noone.

If he goes out to the high slot he'll be criticized when Crosby doesn't pass it and does something into the slot.  Was another D and a bunch of forwards who could have done something, but that's why that play is effective.  It essentially catches the forwards and the D and with an elite playmaker beating them all.  But focus on Phaneuf.

On another note, Clarkson might be 'better' this season but his contract is still absolutely insane for what he does out there.

Cody, doing the one thing he does very well.

Reminds me of something I was going to say earlier.  He took a shot earlier that I had no idea he could get off, just whipped it towards the net.  His shot is really something.

Nonis should be fired along with anyone else that had anything to do with his signing. I would rather have Percy for this season, suffer with some rookie mistakes but would be better off in the future and save about 6 million a year.

It's not "Kessel quick" but Franson's one-timer is something he's very good at getting off quick.

He kind of half-loaded on the goal, and then launched a curve ball that handcuffed Greiss.

Tough penalty for Kadri.  He got all puck and to me it looked like Letang started going down without Kadri touching him (stick was definitely between his legs).

 

[ZBBM]

Luckily, Polak's shot wasn't that hard.

Clarkson on the 1st PP, I need to go work out after this game, I'm furious.

It's time to put that to bed.  Komarov could play the same role, more effectively.

 

[Arn]

He's earned that from all the offensive production he's had on the second unit and at even strength ;D

 

[GhostofPotvin29]

Really glad Clarkson got to play over 1:00 of that PP down by 1 late in the 3rd.

 

[Strangelove]

Dion has to move his bloody feet. It's like he's skating in molasses tonight.

 

[L K]

Phaneuf with a great hit.  Malkin better get an instigator/roughing minor for that though.

 

[ZBBM]

That was a C-level hit.

 

[azzurri63]

Interference give me a break. Clean hit.

 

[ZBBM]

Gutsy move by RC.

 

[L K]

Pass....pass...pass....pass...passs....delay shot....pass....delay shot, delay shot....pass....pass

 

[ZBBM]

Too much passing on the 6/4 IMO.  Need to just pump shots into the crowd.
