Look out Sedins, here come Rucks!

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

@penguins Will Francis start out 2nd or 3rd line center?

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Three Penguins forwards, four Conn Smythe Trophies

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Congrats to Carolina Hurricanes, Jordan Staal & the memory of Josef Vasicek. Stanley Cup winners!

Wednesday prediction: Flyers score first goal, Pens win in OT

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Ristolainen jabbing Crosby with stick while Sid is covered by ref in post-game scrum. What a joke

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Flyers miss Grade A chance in front of Pens net, Pens turn puck into empty net goal. 4-2, Pittsburgh with gritty win

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Flyers speed making it tough on Pens. Can Pens hold on?

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

4-on-4 play appeared like a Pens' PP, 87 wins scrum, 59 finishes with goal

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Pens' best stretch of play early in 3rd period. Hate taking Karlsson off with coincidental minors, however

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Penguins "lucky" to be up 2-1 after two periods. Chances favored Flyers in Period 2

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

*realize

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Pens playing loose, need to release if game ends 2-0 they still win.

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Pens goalie Silovs playing the part, making the saves he has to make. Don't want to tempt fate too often with him, however.

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Great bad goal by Rakell on Flyers goalie, Dan Vladar. That's a goal that never should've happened. 2-0 Pens

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Lizotte lacking discipline, takes cross-checking penalty. Not winning recipe

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

What a cool PP goal from Sidney Crosby, giving Pens 1-0 1st period lead. Team needed that, now needs to maintain controlled, smart play, especially in own end

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Penguins have most shootout losses (10) of any team since the 2014-15 season, when Philadelphia lost 11 times -- and Pens still have 13 regular-season games remaining.

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

I didn't see vintage Erik Karlsson coming with the Penguins

[John Toperzer @JohnToperzer]

Four weeks for Sid
