Oh.
Good win, and I loved the gap control in the 6-on-5. Kept the Lightning to the outside and made entries a pain. Great work to lock down the win.
Simon Despres 20:05, third on the team.
Extra minutes seems to be at the expense of Martin who played 19:21, his season average 22:20.
Just throwing that out there.
must be nice because cooper folded after the 2nd periodLot of credit goes to Johnston & his staff, they made adjustments as the game went along. Under Disco we would've folded after the 1st.

I've been really impressed with Johnston so far. He really has a good feel for the game and the team. And he's not opposed to riding the hot hand, even if the hot hand is a young, unproven player, as evidenced by Despres's increased ice time and Rust getting time on Geno's wing tonight.
Brian Rust two NHL games 1 goal.
Zach Sill 45 NHL games zero points.
Glad they finally made some sort of change there.

You hit the nail on the head there Doobster. Under Bylsma you could see what kind of a game it was going to be in the first period, because he never changed a thing.

I want to throw a question out. Do you think the Pens would have still won even if Bishop had been in the net the whole time? It was, what 1 -1 when he left and then Nabby gave up 3.

True dat. Its a funny game sometimes.To be honest no way of knowing. If Nabakov came in and made a few big saves it could have went the Lightning way.

By the way saw that they think Bennett has the mumps. That kid just can't catch a break.
