Thursday links: Goligoski back tonight? The Noted One on Crosby's line and shutouts everywhere


First, word on the street is that Alex Goligoski might be back in the lineup tonight...

Be afraid, rest of the NHL, The Noted One is playing on Sidney Crosby's line now. [Post-Gazette]

Marc-Andre Fleury talks about bouncing back from adversity and bad bounces. [National Post]

Pascal Dupuis is a man of many talents. [Penguins.nhl.com]

Nick Johnson's return to the lineup netted him 2 goals and the Baby Pens defeated Syracuse 6-0 last night. [Citizens Voice]

It's been a low-scoring and shutout filled week. [NHL.com]

Speaking of shutouts, will anyone ever touch Martin Brodeur's 104 shutouts? [From the Rink]

The weather wasn't co-operating in getting the Penguins to Montreal. [Tribune Review]

The Oilers are trying online broadcasts. Given those always searching for internet feeds around Pensburgh, I'd say hopefully the Pens look into this sooner than later. [Puck the Media]

This is a little bizarre: The Habs called up a minor league player named Ryan White, but apparently they didn't go through the correct process in time, so officials made him leave the bench. Now the league is looking into a six-figure fine for Montreal. [TSN]

Jordan Staal's stock is up for Team Canada, but there's still a host of great players playing well in front of him. [CTV] 

John Tavares or Tyler Myers to build a franchise around? [TSN]

Sidney Crosby is #1 in the league in scoring important points. [The Hockey News]

Florida's radio guy Randy Moller is the pop culture Mike Lange, and he's back with more hits. [Puck Daddy]

Tonight is going to be a busy night for the television and DVR: Penguins game, Steelers game, “The Office” and “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia”.

Of course, nothing’s been on TV the past few nights now it all hits on the same day, naturally.

If you haven’t caught “The League” after “It’s Always Sunny…” you are really missing out. Two weeks ago I creid laughing through the whole episode!! It is almost as funny as season 1 of “It’s Always…”

I watched the very beginning of the 1st ep and gave up on it (the relentless unfunny promos they aired were annoying)

but a lot of people have said it’s really gotten better, I’ll check it out on DVD for sure

I did the same. It struck me as the sort of show that was funny in concept but just couldn’t apply it well. I guess I could give it another shot as well.

Same here. I always have to TiVo the Office, it seems. I’m glad for the TiVo, though—it helps us space out the quality stuff over the course of a week.

I didn’t have much a chance to check out any games last night but when I did check in on the scores this morning I was completely surprised by all of the shutouts. Good Ol Conklin had a big night for the Blues. And, of course, Ryan Miller earned me another shutout in Pensburgh League A (against the Caps no less). Me likey.

Ryan Miller has been just phenomenal all season… even in games when the Sabres have lost

You have to see it for yourself...

Oh and I just have to say, I love the idea of team-centric online feeds. As much as I enjoy the Center Ice package, if the option of paying for one team is available (and likely cheaper) then I’m all for it. The NBA does that now – you can buy the whole NBA ticket for I think something like $180 OR you can buy eight teams, online only, for something like $90.

I agree

I would pay maybe $80-$100 bucks to get online feeds for the Pens. I don’t need to watch other teams…

go pens!

they have to take Dupes off the second line immediately. His point production just doesn’t justify a top six spot. Trade him now, while he’s hot cause his salary is preventing us from signing a Hossa or Gaborik to play along side Sid. Dupuis clearly stinks.

by PensFan024 on Dec 10, 2009 12:10 PM EST reply actions   1 recs

the Pens are right up against the cap and dealing Dupuis won’t clear enough space to sign a prime-time winger who’ll command something in the region of at least 6 M/year. May be it could be done it they trade him AND Kunitz together to clear up ~5 mil. in cap space

You have to see it for yourself...

Pens’ site says Gogo definitely in for tonight’s game.

by JustinM on Dec 10, 2009 1:40 PM EST reply actions  

Given Sid’s scoring as of late, just being on his line pretty much give you a guaranteed point-per-game.

by spookygeek on Dec 10, 2009 2:09 PM EST reply actions  

Correction: Noted’s on Geno’s line, not Bing’s, which as Stan “Love the show!” Savran pointed out, might help since nobody on that line has scored recently.
