Head Coach Dan Bylsma can take one time out per game. I
think now would be a good time for him to call a “time out” regarding the
playoffs.
Friday night – loads of words come to mind – surprising, ugly,
embarrassing, lack of effort are the ones that I have been seeing. Whatever your
summation one thing is crystal clear – this was not the same team that showed
up on Wednesday night.
The Penguins need to get back to what they do best:
- 1. Dump pucks in deep and be aggressive on the forecheck.
- 2. Get physical with good clean checks. Let the Islanders know who is boss.
- 3. Shot blocking. Was truly amazed with how many shots were blocked with sticks on Wednesday.
- 4. Stay disciplined and out of the box.
- 5. Good team defense. Help Marc Andre Fleury out – clear the crease of players and pucks.
- 6. Great passing.
- 7. More shots on net.
If Dan, Tony, and Todd can get the players to do this
playoff game in and playoff game out, My wife and I will see you at a finals game at Consol
in June. If not, they will be joining the Flyers on the golf course soon.
Let’s Go Pens !
