Penguins vs. Blackhawks Open Thread
Blackhawks Blog: Second City Hockey
All right folks, we're almost there. Just two more preseason games to get through this weekend and then we're well on our way to the regular season next Thursday. I know we've all grown to hate Mondays with this whole work and school thing many of us do, but come Monday morning we're just four days away. So maybe it won't be such a crappy day after all.
Looking ahead to tonight's game, the Penguins will be without (deep breath) Sidney Crosby (aforementioned hip discomfort), Ryan Craig, Evgeni Malkin, Mike Comrie, Dustin Jeffrey, Brooks Orpik, Zybnek Michalek and Dr. Ben Lovejoy.
Both Marc-Andre Fleury and Brad Thiessen will be splitting duties between the pipes tonight, so we can at least get a look/listen to that. Full lineup after the jump.
Forwards
9 Pascal Dupuis
10 Mark Letestu
14 Chris Kunitz
17 Mike Rupp

Is this game on FSN?"
When will the season finally start, you ask? Well, here's your (new and improved) answer.
Nash says Malkin's fist has "big taste."
Also...
for anyone who hasn’t see the new Sid NHL commercial, I highly recommend watching. Probably top 3 commercials I’ve seen Sid do.
I also posted a FanShot about it.

way to plug your own fanshot PF!
good morning!
Is it October yet?
Just so I never have to answer this again. I'm from Singapore so whenever you see me online, I'm either sleep deprived or just waking up.
Hey, I only said I posted a fanshot about it…I posted the direct link to the video.
There’s a difference, bud.
Good evening.

Why is Ovie in a Zigtech commercial?
I like that commercial too, it was even better than the Leafs one. I kept hoping the guy wouldn’t fal off

Simon Despres in the starting lineup.

This is a huge night for Jeffery, Tangradi, and Despres. They’re my players to watch.

Hey, PensBurghers! How did we look on Tuesday? I had my wisdom teeth removed that afternoon and I was feeling pretty crappy that night and I forgot there was a game.
Q: Are we not men?
A: We are Penguins!
Pretty good.
Malkin was flying in the 1st then let up after he got a goal.
TestTube was a beast. And Despres provided another solid game. He’s outplaying the WBS guys in my opinion.

Nope and he’s not again tonight (hip).

Nash says Malkin's fist has "big taste."
Hmm. It’s to be expected that they would be super-conservative about injuries in the pre-season, but I’m starting to suspect that something may actually be wrong here and I’m furthing suspecting that this something may have been plaguing him for years (remember how he looked in the 2009 playoffs? like he was a step behind?)
Q: Are we not men?
A: We are Penguins!
it’s the paranoid fan in all of us…
OH NO! Sid’s not playing 50 Mins…. His leg must have fallen off! Someone dial 911!
Is it October yet?
Just so I never have to answer this again. I'm from Singapore so whenever you see me online, I'm either sleep deprived or just waking up.
Yeah, there’s definitely an element of that here, but I still suspect he has a chronic nagging injury that they are wisely keeping under wraps.
Q: Are we not men?
A: We are Penguins!
Every player has those.
Considering they’re telling us exactly what it is, I’d say they’re not too concerned.
When will the season finally start, you ask? Well, here's your (new and improved) answer.
Nash says Malkin's fist has "big taste."
He doesn’t seem to concerned about it.
He said if this was a regular season game, he would play. He also made the trip to Chicago and thinks he’ll play Sat.
Also, I’m not really sure what you mean by the 2009 playoffs…he had 30 points. It’s not like he straggled behind. I’d attribute that more to Nic Lidstrom, Zetterberg, Datsyuk, and Rafalski shadowing him every shift.
When will the season finally start, you ask? Well, here's your (new and improved) answer.
Nash says Malkin's fist has "big taste."
It wasn’t so evident in the Detroit series; I saw it more in the first two rounds. And, yeah, he did turn in a very solid performance, it just seemed to me like occasionally he was a step behind his usual self. Maybe I’m just being paranoid.
Q: Are we not men?
A: We are Penguins!
Seriously?
8 pts. in 6 games against the Flyers.
over 10 pts (can’t remember, it was some ridiculous #) in 7 games against the Caps.
I’d say he was fine.

Yeah, this should be a watershed season for MAF and so far I like what I’m seeing.

Wow, they are making it out to be an awesome save; wish I could see it.

Hello all, I have arrived. What can I say? I have no life. That, and a 6:50 am train to Ottawa tomorrow morning means I am home early and listening to the radio broadcast.
aw, waking up early on a Saturday sucks :(

Oh gosh, the next 4 weekends are brutal. On the upside, my sister and I are catching the Sens-Rangers game tomorrow night (except I see that both their line-ups are pretty much their regular season rosters tonight which doesn’t give me much hope for tomorrow night’s game). Hopefully I will just sleep on the train.
Sleep or Nap
either is good on the train.

Gonchar!!! And Staal!!! Not the best Staal, but I heard they’re related ;)
"Hockey captures the essence of Canadian experience... hockey is the chance of life, and an affirmation that despite the deathly chill of winter we are alive." - Stephen Leacock.
They are both playing tonight. Staalsy tied the game towards the end of the third and I am beginning to think neither of them will play tomorrow :( On the upside, the sister and I are going to see the Pens play at the ’Bank next March. So hopefully I will see Gonchar and Kovalev then.
Oh yeah Kovalev. I wasn’t around Pensland when he was there, so I will always hate him (he leaves Montreal to go where? Ottawa?)
"Hockey captures the essence of Canadian experience... hockey is the chance of life, and an affirmation that despite the deathly chill of winter we are alive." - Stephen Leacock.
It’s funny, his first game back at Montreal the fans booed him and then he scored. And the Habs played abominably so by the end, the fans were screaming for him to come back. So much so that he got a standing ovation. I still have a soft spot for him.
I remember near the end of his last year in Montreal, they had a standing-O for him because the Bell Centre anounced that he said he didn’t want to leave Montreal because he loves their fans.

I remember watching the Hawks 6 seasons ago.
They got beat by the second worst team in the West. Guess who was the worst?

I spent a little time in the States as a kid. Saw Mario’s last game in the Civic against the Flyers. When I got back to Singapore, there wasn’t enough hockey to watch so I spent a lot of time following the teams I could watch. This meant a lot of the Devils & Wings (i know right?), some of the Sabres but the breakthrugh for hockey here were the Ducks… (Damn you Disney)
I followed multiple teams but the Pens always had a soft spot in my heart. When MArio saved the Pens, I discovered internet radio.

I hate when I read stuff like this,(paraphrasing) -"saw Mario’s last game when I was a kid.

Seriously, I don’t know how you kids can keep up with 4-5 conversastions at once on 1 thread. it’s exhausting.
I sometimes will be watching a Pens game on the internet, chatting about it here, watching a football game on TV with the sound off, and replying to e-mails at the same time.

I guess I should add to the conversation instead of just listening. Excellent penalty by Martin. I like what I see of our two new defencemen….or more accurately, what I hear.

sorry :( But ….. yes I grew up during the Habs/Bruins era. Great hockey during the time of the phenomenal 5 year run of the Habs. Couldn’t help myself. Plus, I lived in Kingston. We got the Habs games, not the Leafs

Hockey Fans in Singapore....
I know a couple of Swedes in Singapore that are huge hockey fans…..Ranger fans though because of the usual amount of Swedes on that team….they text’ me a bunch during the games of our Cup run. Proves they’re dedication to the sport…Sing is like 13 hrs ahead of the East coast….
the Rangers have Swedes? I thought the Wings stole them all
