[SBN Habs Blog - Habs Eyes on the Prize]
At last the Penguins are back on Mellon Arena ice, returning with the same advantage (or lack thereof) they had heading into Montreal. 1-1 when they left, 2-2 when they returned. Only difference is we're now looking at a best of three series instead of seven. The matchup is getting intense and it's going to take a tremendous effort on home ice to edge out the win tonight.
The preview's short and sweet, mainly because I'm short on time. So, until the puck drops tonight for the thread, you know what you have to do. Once again, a public thanks to Alighieri for taking over the scoring duties:
Format: Winning team name - Score - First Pens goal scorer's last name
Give me the first Penguins goal scorer
Give me the final score (include which team will win)
Example: Penguins - 7-2 - Lemieux

Penguins 3-1 Crosby
i said it before, i’ll say it again, when the going gets tough, Crosby gets going
look for 87 to be double amped and for the Pens to take the body left, right, and center
this will be WAR
Pens 5-2 Crosby
Lets all watch Sid turn it up a few more notches.
Lets Go Pens!
I have withheld my predictions because of prior superstitions, but now...
after eating my Lucky Little Ceasar’s pizza last night and having the Hockey Gods figuratively $%&^ all over my ritual, I’m gonna buck the trend and give a prediction. I figure I need to change things up a bit.
PENS 6-2 Staalsy
I just ordered his jersey, so sue me…actually don’t…I’m in law school so that scares me now.

Sweet!
Good luck on it. Don’t get too stressed out, it will literally lower your point total. Some of the best advice I received was to take the day before the exam off (or at least the night before). Go watch a movie or play a video game for a few hours to unwind.

good luck lawyers! goodness knows I might need one when I come back stateside one of these days.
After about a year and a half, I've finally got around to giving myself a profile. Yay me!
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.
i want a Staal jersey. or t-shirt, or anything..
So far all I have are 3 t-shirts which look like jerseys, the blue Fleury, a black Sid and a white pre-alternate captain Geno…
may remedy that for my birthday… (insert devious grin)

How to you study law in the US (I assume You live in states). In Europe we concentrate on our countrys legislation and then study common law and continental (codification) as general. But in US you have different laws in defferent states and the federal and local government so how to you manage/orientate.
You’re right that the American system is different from the Civil System that most of Europe has. As far as how US law schools study law, it sort of depends on what area of law you are studying. For example, if you are studying something like Contracts, or Criminal Law (just had that final today…blech) then most of it is codified into the UCC and the MPC (or separate state codes) respectively. So common law only has a little bit to do with it (again, depending on jurisdiction).
For stuff like Property and Torts, it is mostly all common law, so you study cases alot.
Then there is Legal Research and Writing where you learn how to write memos, briefs, and the like.
For the most part, you learn both the Federal law and the specific state law your law school is located in at the same time. And then you study even more for the Bar, where it is heavily dependent upon where you are taking it.

You’re supposed to name the first Pens scorer — which in your case is no one (ergh!).
Or you can make up some story about how we’re trading Staal for Gionta. But you should know that Staal is already on the block to be traded for Spezza, what with Round 1’s chaos ‘n all. You could also aim for a Letestu-Gionta trade, but it’s doesn’t have quite the same ring to it.
Anyway, it’s up to you.

Forget Staal for Spezza! Staal for Wheeler, draft pick, and Car???

I don’t think this upcoming draft is going to be very deep. The teams in the playoffs right now can probably afford to give up that pick in a package of sorts, but I’m not giving up Staal
Follow the Penguins on SBN @ Pensburgh.com and twitter.
Agreed. We’ll barricade him in the arena if we hear talk of a trade.

are we gonna be inside with him or guarding the entrances from the outside? Cos Jordan looks like a fun guy to hang out with. Maybe we lock him in with Mario & Sid and they talk him out of ever leaving the Pens… ever.

I say we get Mario & Sid to guard the entrances, and we do the talking. And if that doesn’t work, we bring in Guerin & Godard — and maybe Rupp.

Penguins 4-3 Crosby
I have a sinking feeling that Jordan Staal’s gonna come through but I’m too much of a craven little coward to deviate from my homer pick.

You were close...
Too bad the refs decided to call the penalty!
Pens 4-2 Crosby.

Pens 3-2 Sid
My gut tells me Duper, but if there’s one thing I’ve learned since becoming a Pens fan, it’s don’t ever make the mistake of doubting Sid.
I've told [a 9 months pregnant] Nathalie that she can't have the baby on a game night. I'm not missing a playoff game. -Mario Lemieux in 1993
Sticking with my boy
Penguins — 4-2 — Letestu
Hope he cracks the lineup. He’s due IMO. Had alot of great chances in this series and I wish he could have replaced feds sooner!
Uneccessary but...
GO BEARS!!!!

Pens-1-0-Orpik
last time i picked this we won… and fluery shut them out… and everytime i orpik touched the puck i just thought, "could that BS fun pick be for real?
Habs - 4-2 - Talbot
I only have 2 points in this competition, so my picks have no/negative correlation with what happens. Just in case it’s a negative correlation, I’ll pick the Habs. More important that the Pens win then I get the right call.
