Time to Get It Together

The Pens have lost 4 of the past 5 and have given points to divison rivals that may come back to haunt later in the season. It's time to get this thing turned around.

The past few games it has been the Pens old enemy, the DEFENSIVE BREAKDOWN, that has reared its ugly face. Defensemen have not had their heads in the games and have made mistake after mistake. The opposition has, gladly, taken advantage on many occasions.

Still looking for several of the Penguins key guys to step it up to. Staal has still not gotten back to his form from last season. Colby Armstrong has spent several consecutive games on the healty scratch list. Roberts and Recchi are still hanging back begin incognito.

Tonight the Pens face the Flyers for the second time in 3 games. I am sure Michel Therrien has had a few words with the team the past couple of days. I am very interested to see what the teams attitude is at the drop of the puck tonight.
