The Wings are becoming more skilled upfront, but I would still rate the goaltending tandem as league average or worse and the 7 defensemen (even with the added depth) as a group decidedly below league average. That puts a ceiling on this team. Seider and Walman are good NHL defensemen, Maata is pretty good. Edvinsson might be pretty good shortly after being called up. So we need at least two of Petry, Holl, Gostisbehere and Chiarot to "not suck" - I'm not sure that's a given.

"ghost" and holl have not sucked so far.  i dont know if i'd call maata pretty good, but he's been serviceable.

Speaking of skilled up front...that pass Veleno made late in the third into the slot that got banged off the post by,,,Compher...maybe...was possibly the pass of the night.   There's a noticeable difference in our depth this season..and we play with a bit more of an edge.  REALLY looking forward to that Ottawa game this Saturday.  We'll see how much running around Tkaczuk does with Kostin, Ras and Fischer out there

Gameday preview by Ken Kal and Daniella Bruce. The Pens still have three players from the ‘08 and ‘09 series against the Wings - Malkin, Crosby and Letang.

I'm very excited for this game for some reason, I've really enjoyed watching the Wings so far.

[lordstanley]

What a start. Pens score 53 seconds in. 

[slothfacekilla]

Chiarot - Petry duo scored on immediately oof

[lordstanley]

Jameson Williams sets off the Wings’ goal horn. I wonder who’s his money on for tonight’s game. 

[slothfacekilla]

The Wings are getting their asses kicked here early on

[lordstanley]

The Wings weathered the early storm to get into this tie game. DeBrincat. 

[slothfacekilla]

Wow!! Beautiful plays by Czarnik to set up DeBrincat to tie it up!!  Ghost bear with a nice exit pass too.

[Motor City Sonics]

When did they call up Czarnik and who is injured or sent down to make room for him?    Was he here from Day 1 ? 

[1984Echoes]

They called him up 3 days ago and sent Zach Aston-Reese down...

Zach wasn't playing yet, so who is the scratch,  Robby?

Husso stoned a Penguin on a clear breakaway with 2 minutes left in period, not sure who that was. 1-1 after 1.

Hard Luck Robby..........

Chiarot puts one home! Nice shot by him, 2-1 good guys

TNT is trying to push the idea that Raymond interfered with Jarry but I don't see it on the replay

Yeah, making excuses for them. Kinda one-sided 

[slothfacekilla]

Wew going to be a close high stick call here on a Copp goal, nice play by Petry at the blue line to get the puck and put it on net.

[slothfacekilla]

It counts!  Wings are looking really good after a bad start.

[lordstanley]

Goal on a Petry shot, tipped by Copp. 3-1! 

[slothfacekilla]

And now Perron on the PP wow!

[Motor City Sonics]

Wings are pretty impressive - and exciting.

[lordstanley]

Wings moved it around beautifully. TV announcer comment “Wings just seem a step faster”. Nice comment to hear.
