19-0-2

We played well enough to win, just couldn’t get a bounce. Lineup still feels like mess with 5 regulars out of action. We look nothing like the team from earlier in the season the was buzzing all over ice pressuring the puck on offense and defense, giving the opponent no time.

That seems fairly heavy to take from one game. I thought the Pens were all over them in the 2nd and 3rd, and they've been doing a decent job of doing that for a while now. They can't win every game.

I don’t think we’ve looked like the “beginning of the season” Pens for the past month or so. Hopefully just the injuries and short bench and we gear up in April.

Tampa lost 2 guys mid-game and played into OT last night. I expected them to fade as the game went on.

Idk I thought the Pens looked their best when they were missing half their lineup and went 19-8-2 or whatever. Doesn't seem like they've been missing much of a beat.

Pettersson is **** trash.

Not sure he’s quick/agile enough for 3 on 3. Not sure why he’s routinely out there.

That's pretty much what I said to myself when I saw him step onto the ice in OT. He has a long reach but stops moving his legs, effectively neutering that reach.

Regular season Tampa is really really good.

[Gaucho]

But Stammer was invisible again.

[Trip McNeely]

That Kucherov injury did not look very good

It was a good game. Pens had multiple opportunities to put the game away and didn't. 3 vs 3 OT is always a crapshoot. At least we got a point.
