Airborne, thanks for the ping!
“Our” Pens are really best up-LeTang is a HUGE loss. I hope they play like they have nothing to lose as not much is expected of them. I’m looking to Geno as the catalyst...

Yes, Letang was a giant loss. In the middle of the season I noticed the Pens web site stats were really off so I started keeping my own stats. I was really tracking the Kunitz/Crosby/Perron line. What I found was that line was really good much of the time but the real determining factor in scoring (for any line) was whether Letang was on the ice. I think opposing teams saw the same thing and targeted him for heavy hits because of it.
I thought Malkin looked fairly good the last two games and not as injured as the local reporters think. IMO Kunitz/Perron is a better winger tandem than Winnick/Hornquist so I’d hope they can put up some points.
