Another Workman like win for the Pens



Two of the best of the young season, Tyler Kennedy and Alex Goligoski..........Alex Goligoski is certainly fitting in and contributing quite well. He has played responsibly in his own end, his speed has helped eliminate odd man rushes on multiple occasions AND Go Go is fourth on the team in total points with 7, including 2 goals, and carries the BEST plus/minus at plus 9. I know it is spilled milk, and I know we won the cup, but I still scratch my head at his December demotion last year in favor of that old French guy.........as far as MR KENNEDY goes, he only LEADS a team with guys like Malkin and Crosby on it in GOALS with 5 after 9 games. He is fifth in total scoring with 6 pts, and is part of the BEST third line in the NHL. Add his constant energy level and forecheck, and you can see how the organization continues to thrive due to its home grown talent pool coming out of WBS. With the injury to Gonchar, we will now see even more responsibility and PP time given to Goligoski and Letang, and I believe they are ready.
