Much needed points there...

Be selfish, Sid, for ****s sake.

Thanks for joining in the GDT against a boring team on a Saturday afternoon... though the game certainly was eventful. Have a good one.

A win is a win. Geno and Hornqvist back, 3 points for Sid, and two power play goals. If Letang's okay this will be a decent day.

2 wins in the last 8 games... both against Arizona.

Kunitz without a point in his last 11 games. That is amazing.

Beat a bad team, in an afternoon game, coming from behind in the 3rd, and scored 2 pp goals. Put a lot of demons to rest today I hope. Maybe this is the switch being flipped.

I predict.. umm, Pens 3 Coyotes 2.

Yeah, I know my stuff. Very simple calculation, really.

That Letang hit was late and awkward. I don't see it as dirty, but yeesh.

Is Adams a hockey player?

Just curious.

If Cole's quote is any indication, the Pens were not happy with Doan today either... then again, it is Yohe reporting that.

Ian Cole: "Doan was running around like an idiot today."

Boobs backwards is Snooy. Go pens to playoffs. Yoot.

But...but, but Beau's separation anxiety

Who's going to be the first to declare Crosby's Art Ross tainted because of Kane's injury? My vote goes to Milbury.

They played about 10 minutes of decent hockey, the rest was largely dreck, as has been the norm.

Will need more and better tomorrow for me to start feeling more optimistic.

Yeah, we got a win but I don't think the Cup engraver is going to lose any sleep tonight trying to remember if it's "Downie" or "Downey."

A scary picture of Letang. (It's in the link below if it doesn't show).

Root Sports' feed.

Puck Daddy's opinion (this text is a link to the article).

Letang has a history of concussions and also has come back from a stroke. The look on his face after the play was just scary. And Doan ... what's the point of finishing that check? He didn't have the puck, and it was clear and obvious that he didn't. He was not given a penalty on the play.

Doan is one of those players who ‘plays the game hard’ but really has had some moments where he has made some dirty plays in his career. Though he often expresses a great amount of remorse afterwards as he did Saturday.

Still, rules are rules. The hit was late. It was forceful, and it was unnecessary. Is this Department of Player Safety worthy … sure seems so.

I'm refraining from my opinion on the subject.
