Hm, good point. I think you're right.Is that right? Weren’t they technically out of the playoffs on the last day during the Johnston era? They needed to beat Buffalo to get in?
Maybe I need another coffee.

Looks like they needed to beat Buffalo to clinch, but were never on the outside looking in.

Coach Sullivan says that Casey DeSmith will be in net today for the Penguins.

DeSmith seems to be passable when he has a guy behind him that can push him.
Or he got his contract and now he’s checked out.

Am I imagining things or did we go from a team with maybe the best/most active sticks in the league to a bottom half team?

“Casey DeSmith” is extremely not quiet in net. That guy has way too much going on.

and yet he's still not talked about seriously for the Norris....Letang tied for first in goals among defensemen.

Meh, he's on that shortlist...but he's not gonna win it regardless...Mark Giordano is having a whale of a year. Though, Letang on a national stage having the game that he had, is helpful...
The Penguins can't really press too hard on the Letang for Norris campaign, because they are pushing to get Crosby a Selke...tough to double-dip when they're both tough sells for a win...

That Crosby has never won a Selke is incredible to me.

The fact that he's been top-10 in voting as many times as he has is incredible to me...very undeserved. He's a Selke-caliber player in the playoffs, definitely not in the regular season. This year, completely different though...he deserves votes this season for sure...probably won't beat Ryan O'Reilly and some others...but this is the first time he's been deserving...

up until recently Crosby rarely played on the PK. hard to win a defensive forward award if you don't kill penalties.....That Crosby has never won a Selke is incredible to me.

You can also put Morgan Rielly on the short list for the Norris ahead of Letang, not because he's better but because he plays in Toronto.Meh, he's on that shortlist...but he's not gonna win it regardless...Mark Giordano is having a whale of a year. Though, Letang on a national stage having the game that he had, is helpful...

And because he's been better...
It's Brent Burns that hasn't been better...

Petterson has scored two goals in his last six games.
Sprong hasn't scored February 2nd and has gone pointless in his last six. His minutes have been declining over the last week, going from averaging 15 minutes per game to playing 8:59 on Friday against Boston (his lowest since joining the Ducks.)
He spent Sunday's game watching from the press box.
