Weird...why isn't Fleury in this game?  Gus should be playing against Boston.

If you have an Athletic subscription, there's a Pens article that maybe leaves in question a bit as to whether he even wanted to start. https://theathletic.com/5146761/2023/12/18/marc-andre-fleury-wild-penguins/?source=emp_shared_article

Asked if he was disappointed not being named the starter Fleury said, 'a little'.

Which says he would have wanted the start. He's a class act and a team guy so he won't make a big stink about it.

Getting tired of the refs missing calls on the other team, but making sure they catch all ours.  Middleton got a stick to the side of the head just before the end of the period.  Swear I saw a Wild player get tripped, but didn't catch the number of who it was.

I know they aren't going to catch everything, but I feel like we are getting the short end of the stick with calls sometimes.

Yeah, I read that, but there's more to it.

Welp, we may get Flower anyway. Goose...good god. I don't know Hynes policy on pulling goalies for momentum shifts, but I hope it's different than Deans. 

If it's any indication, Goligoski keeps playing even though he looks terrible.  I realize we have people hurt, but at this point I'd rather go with 13 forwards and have someone like Freddy play defense than have Goligoski on the ice.
