In a perfect world, Hartnell and Letang would throw down right off the whistle. But Letang won’t fight because, well, I don’t really think he can.

I can’t believe some of the Penguins put packing peanuts inside the team trainer’s car. Is it a guy thing? Is it just something that, as a girl, I just don’t get?
It must be a guy thing. I would find that hilarious.

Pranks keep it fun. Back in college when I worked at Best Buy a guy in the shipping department wrapped the manager’s car in shrink wrap. I thought that was pretty funny. Until the manager had to leave and spent about 1/2 hr in 25 degree weather scraping away with a box cutter.

My brother works at a battery factory and he and a bunch of his coworkers once super-glued the tool box of a guy they didn’t like to the roof. I thought it was kind of funny. So is wrapping someone’s car with bubble wrap. I’m surprised your boss was only out there for half an hour trying to liberate his car with a box cutter. It takes me freaking forever to open and breakdown the boxes of shipment with the crappy box cutters we have where I work.
max healthy scratch

All right. Let’s see what this power play can do. If anything.

I LOVE the “hey hartnell bite this” sign (pointing to a stanley cup ring)
Also “keep your fang out of letang”
+1 to whoever came up with the vampire reference
It seems like every new book, television show or movie that comes out is about them.
So, how bout that Game Center ad right in the middle of the screen?

I’m on the West Coast, and I can’t leave the office till almost the 2nd intermission.

They actually have women on the east coast too. True story.
The weather though. Yeah. You win.
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
Well, yes clearly there’s women on the east coast too…but I’ve never heard a song saying “I wish they all could be Pittsburgh girls”. 300 days of sunshine a year does a body good.
(No offense to any and all Pittsburgh women).

Well, there was a line in the exact same song that went “and the Northern girls, with the way they kiss, they keep their boyfriends warm at night” or something like that. Now what straight male wouldn’t want that?
Touche. But clearly, “Northern girls” refers to Northern California. Its only 60 degrees outside right now…that’s cold for me. I need my girl to keep me warm…. :)

So much for the PK. I did laugh when he went up to the boards though. Pretty funny.
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
Another Malkin penalty. If the Flyers score again because of this I demand Malkin score two goals to make up for it.
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
whats up with VS not showing any replays of the penalties? What did Malkin do besides duck out of a check?
holding of course. One of the lamest calls in all of hockey. That and charging
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
www.channelsurfing.net also has the game. just need to make sure you use internet explorer for your browser. I usually use Mozilla firefox., but it doesn’t seem to work on that browser…
The Penguins need to kill this penalty to end the period on a good note. They also need to score either before the end of this period or at the start of the second. The Flyers have struggled lately, especially on offense, and if the Penguins can regain a two-goal lead or more, it might kill any hope the Flyers have of winning.
In the words of Jim Rome, Feh Nominal!!!

I’m gonna compare the two between periods.

Strikingly similar. Could easily be the same guy.

That’d be hilarious. But I think it’s on opposite sides of the rink.

Please pardon my ignorance..but scouts from where?

Emrick said it at the end of the period. It’s a reference to the movie Slapshot.

Lol Brian Engblom (sp?) couldn’t even prnounce Goligoski’s name correctly and now he wants him on the olympic team?
In all seriousness, I really hope GoGo gets chosen.

I would say this on my thread,

Another dumb penalty. Kill it or score another shorty please.

that would be nice. I wanna see Gonch get one
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
I was hoping Kunitz’s shot would go in. Now that he’s just back from injury nobody is talking about whether he’s scoring or not — but I don’t want him to get stuck on another scoring drought.
This PP looks great. Moving the puck. Keeping it in. Getting shots. Me likey.
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
Haha yes it certainly has
Our last game about against Florida was absolutely BRUTAL for our PP.

Yeah, I like the Steelers, but I’ve pretty much given up on them for this season.
by OlenWhitaker on Dec 15, 2009 8:38 PM EST up reply actions
Yeah, they’ve had a pretty monumental collapse. Still an outside chance at the playoffs though.
by packallday555 on Dec 15, 2009 8:39 PM EST up reply actions
WAY outside. Broncos and Eagles/Cowboys are two games ahead. Not much chance of even the second wildcard.
by OlenWhitaker on Dec 15, 2009 8:41 PM EST up reply actions
Well the Boys and Eagles are in the NFC. The Broncos probably have the 1st wildcard locked up but I think Pitt is only 1 game back for the 2nd spot.
by packallday555 on Dec 15, 2009 8:43 PM EST up reply actions
You’re right. What was I thinking? Don’t know, but there are four teams with seven wins making it unlikely the Steelers can pass all of them.
by OlenWhitaker on Dec 15, 2009 8:45 PM EST up reply actions
Yes, I’m a Steelers fan. But as long as my Penguins are winning, I can cope with the current devastating situation.
It’s funny that you consider it a “big game.” The way things are going for the Steelers it will probably be easy for you guys to win.
Yeah maybe, but it’ll still likely be a tough game.

Haha ya they do but I hope my Packers can pull it out :)
by packallday555 on Dec 15, 2009 8:38 PM EST up reply actions
Given how the two teams have been playing lately, I’d say you have a very strong chance at this one.
by OlenWhitaker on Dec 15, 2009 8:40 PM EST up reply actions
Even worse they said Troy P’s recent MRI showed no improvement :(
You come at the king, you best not miss.
Really!?
That’s not good news. Not having him really hurts you guys. Pretty crazy how big of an effect ONE guy can have on a defense.
by packallday555 on Dec 15, 2009 8:42 PM EST up reply actions
Ohhhh!
Nice shot by Kunitz there. Too bad it didn’t go in! Would have been a nice confidence builder.
Yeah, he would have hit the ground running just getting back fom injury last game if he got that.
btw hello everyone, sorry i’m late to the party.
You come at the king, you best not miss.
Good. T’would be a shame to miss such an exhibition of hockey goodness.

STAAL #2 glad I played him in fantasy hockey 2night
by stoopidtom on Dec 15, 2009 8:48 PM EST via mobile reply actions
Watching Staal play lately, I’ve been thinking the Canadian squad would be wise to pick him up. If he keeps it going like tonight, maybe they will!
Yeah, he’s looked strong all over the ice tonight. He’s still got one period to get the hatty.
by OlenWhitaker on Dec 15, 2009 9:05 PM EST up reply actions
And already has three seasons and a Cup ring when most guys are just playing their first NHL game. I’ve been saying for a while that I see a 40 goal scorer in Staal.

Now Carcillo has two. Unless this gets taken back for…whatever reason there is to review it

All he needed was a nick. A little tip on the puck. Couldn’t get it. Tragic.

He had the decency not to act like he had been shot with a cannon.

This is why even though I love games against the Flyers, I hate them too. I spent the whole game feeling nervous that our players will end up hurt.
Yeah but now I think they’re just hurting themselves. Heh

Jesus. Where was Dupuis even trying to shoot that one?

Game. Repeat it Thursday night and put the Flyers to sleep.

Agreed. Lots of fights, lots of goals, Flyers humiliated. Sounds right to me.

Still a bit concerned about Staal and Guerin, though.
by OlenWhitaker on Dec 15, 2009 9:40 PM EST up reply actions
Well, Staal was back on that last Pk, so I assume he’s fine.
by SlayerGhaleon on Dec 15, 2009 9:42 PM EST up reply actions
So, I went to BSB game thread, and just a question but did anyone see Kunitz taking a run at any of Philly`s “star” (which I wasnt aware they had one) tonight?
When your two-way forward lays a hard hit on the other team’s forward, there’s a word for that:
hockey.
When your captain starts laying dirty hits on unsuspecting players not controlling the puck and sends them off on a stretcher, then there’s a word for that too:
goon.

A Flyers fan over at Broad Street Hockey said:
“The flyers are like the titanic… They look good until they hit the ice.”
Warms my heart.
still too soon i think. more on it tomorrow I’m sure
