I think you'd be best to keep the focus of your prose towards analytics.

The grandiosity in skewering the guy is far away unnecessary and it comes across like you feel in some way minimized by other 'journalists'. We get it - he has under performed. Know what? It's a team sport. One that you probably never played.

Mike Sullivan is doing what he thinks is best. I see your point, they should have never lost that game.

This article is 100, and there's no factual opposition to it. Only ad hominem and "trust gmjr" sentimentality.

Johnson is an anchor and hes killed 2 potentially great seasons.

The entire team needs to pick it up. It's easy to blame Jack Johnson but the rest of the d core is not helping much. Then let's look at the forwards. It's not like Malkin is doing a whole lot out there. From what I have seen so far the hardest workers are on the 4th line. and not playing much. Right now most of the team looks like they have no interest in being out there. Matt Murray seems to be holding his own but I still think jarry should be in net. So let's not blame everything on Johnson because the whole team can pick it up another level or 2

I think something stinks in pittsburgh. There's a love fest going on between Johnson, Sullivan and Murray. No way you sit an Allstar goalie for Mr Glass (Murray) unless there's a manag-a-trois going on. I'm betting that after Wednesday's preformances that the Murray- Sullivan bro-mance continues. Sullivan needs to go. He's now suffering from Dan Bylsma disease not seeing the forest for the trees.

Holy shit dude your an idiot.... Watch a game yet at all? if your going to write an article about Jack you better write about the entire D core. And you should have wrote an entire article on Letang he's been worst than Jack, offering infinity free biscuits every shift can't make a simple pass and that's their most experienced D man. None of the guys can make a simple pass out of the zone of each of the first three games. You should be a healthy scratch for writing and singling out one guy when all 6 have been terrible
