CRANBERRY, Pa. -- There was nothing. Not to the sequence. Not to the circumstance.
Justin Lee, a defenseman just out of college, had been spun into a corner of his zone. Two forwards had him trapped. A turnover seemed imminent.
Erik Karlsson, a defenseman just out of ... uh, a Norris Trophy ceremony, was Lee's partner for this shift in this scrimmage that opened the Penguins' training camp Thursday morning at the UPMC Lemieux Sports complex. And though nearby, he didn't rush to Lee's assistance.
Because this guy, for anyone who's marveled at his magnificent career can attest, doesn't chase pucks.
