Why, you ask? After all, the Bruins are 3-1 on the young season…our Penguins 2-0-1. So it’s not like their record is that much better than ours. Plus, they’re missing a number of key players, including pot stirrer and sniper extraordinaire Brad Marchand and stud defenseman Charlie McAvoy. By comparison, we’re positively in the pink, health-wise.
Okay, I’ll tell ya why. They’ve uncovered a potential diamond in the rough in career minor-leaguer A.J. Greer.
To digress, anyone who’s read PenguinPoop over the years knows I pine for a legit power forward.
