When you lose two games the way the Pittsburgh Penguins have over the past 36 hours (a 5-1 no-show and a 5-4 overtime loss in which you lose a 4-0 first period lead) you are obviously doing a lot of things wrong.
Head coach Mike Sullivan has talked about playing the game the right way and managing the puck better, among the many issues. All of which is fair.
But we also need to talk about some of the lineup and usage decisions that are holding the team back in big moments. Wednesday’s game was a masterclass in what not to do.
