Pens Report: Camp (Day 2)
Kris was interviewed for NHL Network, I was not home to record it but I hope it pops up on the internet :)!
POWER PLAY UNIT
The Pens worked on special teams in the second session of Monday’s camp practice.
For the top power-play unit, Pittsburgh used Letang and Neal on the point with Kunitz, Crosby and Malkin down low.
Second unit has Niskanen and Martin up top with Kennedy, Sutter and Dupuis up front.
COACHSPEAK
Head coach Dan Bylsma covered a few topics following practice…
- Everyone is healthy after the first two days of camp
- Malkin had a long day of travel Sunday, with the time change, lack of sleep and long practice, he’s pretty tired
- Different players will play alongside Malkin and Neal depending on game situations. Still possible for someone to earn that wing slot
- It’s possible that Despres, if he makes the team, could be paired with Letang
