Good stuff again, Dan…what is HCMS bristling at a reporter for…his defense flat out sucks…and that's on him and his staff… The "rookies" are playing very good hockey, and as you watch them, they are very fundamentally sound…that has NOTHING to do with Sullivan…but everything to do with the coaching they've been getting with the Baby Pens…I started to think about this…outside of Crosby, Rust, Rakell, I really can't think of a player who has improved while being here with the Penguins…maybe Shea or POJ a little, but who else…that is very telling….Sullivan is not the guy to lead this youth- infused team going forward
In my view you made the mistake of bringing up the fact they were eliminated to the coach a 2nd time. Hurt his pride/feelings, so he hit back. Doesn't help that he was already angry about a bad loss to the 2nd worst team in the NHL. It wasn't about whether the question about the rookies themselves was fair.
For the record, I'm no Sullivan defender. I think he shoulda been fired after getting swept by the Isles in 2019, and certainly after that Montreal series in 2020. It's ridiculous that he's still here, and it speaks to falling standards in the organization.
From your tone it sounded like you had good intentions with the question. I even think it was a fair one. But you woulda gotten a better answer in a few days, when he had time to cool off.
karlson strikes again ! fumbling the puck giving up a shorthander to a terribly inept team ! on the heels of losing ( badly ) to a crapola buffalo team this really stinks ! I dont know about you but I cant wait till this season is OVER !
The Penguins are currently sitting in the number 6th spot from the bottom. The best thing this team can do is lose these last four games straight and hopefully find themselves in a top five pick spot. i think Philly will pass us, but I am not sure about Boston. Boston could pass us, but they are terrible right now. I think we at least need to land where Philly currently is (the 5th spot) to get someone who will really help us moving forward.

Time to ask "Why do you continued to play the same defensive pairings when they have shown they don't play well together?"
