How many of those dashes are because Bob refuses to stop a beachball in the postseason?

-4 in 11 games with CBJ
-7 in 12 games with LA

Had Jonathan Quick...did worse. He leaves LA and the Kings immediately win the Stanley Cup. But that is a good question.

Preseason is where he stars...games are slower pace, against worse players, more freedom...

As the games get more important, he gets worse because the goals matter more...

JMFJ accumulates minuses at a rate of -0.14/gm in regular season career; but -0.48/gm in the playoffs. 0 for 4 in playoff series, a minus in all of them.
Just wondering...wasn't the analytics and opinions also down about Schultz when he first came aboard? Maybe the Pens staff can work wonders with him like they did with Schultz.

Probably means he should have been a +37 in CBJ then

Jultz isn't nearly as dumb. I was pro-Schultz when we acquired him because I had seen him play in Oklahoma City. Most others in the media/Edmonton were very negative.

I'd be impressed if they can salvage 32 year old JMFJ...

So I guess we won't have a third jersey this year??
I swear that we were supposed to be getting one, but haven't seen anything mentioned. I found one article that stated we may get one next season, but it was the only source, so I'm hesitant to trust it.
The Penguins are supposed to be getting 3rd jerseys. About a week ago, buried in some other stuff, Cody Tucker of DK Sports mentioned that he asked about the 3rd jerseys. Response was they will likely be announced and coming during the season. Reason given was most fans don't like to have the jerseys announced and not available for purchase......and they aren't ready to be purchased yet. Sounds mainly like production issues holding things up. Tucker also asked if they were blue. He did not get an answer to that question.

PLEASE NOT BLUE unless it is THIS:

I actually don't hate that. Vaguely reminds me of the Steelers '33 throwbacks they wore in '94. Not the same but that's the vibe I get.

I'll reserve judgement until after the season, but won't keep my hopes up.

I wear a black diagonal almost exclusively to Pens games and I don't like the look of that.

Brian Dumoulin is practicing in a non-contact jersey, Daniel Sprong is practicing in a normal jersey.

:thumb: Riikola getting his first taste of the NHL vs the Caps. Look to see him score. For whatever reason they like Simon on PP2, but man would a PP2 of Jake-Brass-Sprong Schultz-Riikola could have some real potential to take advantage at the end of a powerplay.

@count2infinity, @shafnutz05, @Morkle; same name change reward for the PaP champ as in previous years? Or if yinz have something different in mind, that would work, too.
