I know the refs know where their whistles are because they put Pittsburgh shorthanded half of the first period.
A few non-calls already in this period none of which have benefited the Penguins

Sidney Crosby is pacing for 48 goals this season. That would be the highest single-season mark for a player 38 years of age or older in NHL history.

Former Penguins coaches learn pretty quick that Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin don't follow them to their new gigs
The New York Rangers will enter 2026 with the worst record in the Eastern Conference.

Tomasino doesn't answer any questions needed by the Penguins. He's not good enough at the NHL level.
So ultimately a trade involving minor leaguers. I don't see anything of consequence here. Little to no impact at NHL level

The line in Miracle that USA hockey would be best served following wasn't "I'm not looking for the best players, I'm looking for the right players," it was "You don't defend them; you attack them. You take their game and shove it back in their face."
Why the hell is this always a one-way street? The US has players available to make the other have the same problem to deal with.
Instead, Guerin is a dinosaur and would rather be reactive than proactive.
Just pick the best god damn players you galaxy brained fool

Ive gotta say, impressive performance by the Penguins against the league's 2nd best xGF% team
I know they were missing Jarvis and Slavin. Still a great win sans Malkin

Let's get Malkin back in this lineup and then see how Chinakhov fits in. Penguins have to string together some W's to get back into the playoff race, but Malkin would be a big help.
Koivunen might be the odd man out for Chinakhov, but it is totally fine for 41 to go back to AHL for a bit, he's 22
