I'm going to make this short and sweet. Pittsburgh Penguins coach Dan Bylsma needs to improve his in-game coaching.
The past two contests against the Philadelphia Flyers has shown he can prepare a team very well, maybe better than anyone else in the league. But when it comes to adjusting during the game, he leaves something to be desired.
We saw it last year in the playoffs, and we're seeing it again down the stretch. While Peter Laviolette make changes that sparked his team, Bylsma continued doing the things that weren't working, like putting five forwards on the power play, meaning Kris Letang wasn't out there.
Bylsma also needs to realize Malkin is the best player we have on the half wall on the power play. He scores from ridiculous angles and makes goals happen. Put Letang on the point and Malkin on the half wall. Good things will happen.
Bylsma is one of the best coaches in the league, but recently he has been faltering during games.

I see where you're coming from. He definitely showed stubbornness to adapt during last year's first round exit. But it's tough to tell against the Flyers. They love the come backs and don't show up in the first ten minutes for some reason.
