Icings will be directly related to how much Derek Engelland is playing tonight.
Ray Ferraro had a great comment the other day on the Penguins defense. He said something like "by the time the defenders had beaten the puck into a pulp and passed it into Kessel's feet, there was nothing left for Kessel to do but fire it cross ice for an icing, since Crosby was at the other blueline having started from his own face off dots."
This is what I think of now when I see Engelland play. He beats the puck into a pulp and then proceeds to fire a shin high pass down the boards for an icing.
