The Pens have managed with their center position decimated for weeks now. Getzlaf was out 5 weeks and the Ducks did fine in his absence even with all of their issues on D.

This team is built around world-class D and goaltending. Obviously you can't replace Kopitar, but the team can put enough pucks in the net from other people to bridge the gap until they can get Schenn from his junior team or get Kopitar back from IR.

It sucks, but it's not the end of the world. The win today certainly helped.
