I love watching how much Orpik pays attention to what’s going on all over the ice when he’s chasing the puck.
Also … great shift by Geno’s line.
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.
loved reading your blog about your 5 game road trip experience. the NJ game at the end I’m sure was a bummer to watch
"He doesn’t know whether to cry or wind his watch."..... Mike Lange
It wasn’t too bad. Crummy game, but it was kind of fun to be in an enemy arena with a bunch of Pens fans.
I don’t think I’ll move to Newark any time soon, though!
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.

LOL I think that might be a bit of an exaggeration. But that was, indeed, a bad goal to give up.
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.
Meh. They’ve had a coupld of pretty bad games, but they’ve also got some good things going, imo. If the playoffs started today they’d be in trouble, I think, but I also think they’re on track to pull themselves upward.
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.
we need Tanger back
and a possible trade for a center or winger (like always)
Thats what she said! - Michael Gary Scott
I’m not so worried about wing. If Sid doesn’t come back then yes, we need a center. And if Letang doesn’t come back we definitely need another top-four defenseman. Assuming Letang does come back, I’d be happy to get another defenseman, but not so worried about it being a top-four guy.
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.
If
Letang is back and healthy, we have 7 solid NHL D men with Despres, Picard, Burtozzo behind that, so I agree were good there if we get Letang back
Thats what she said! - Michael Gary Scott
I’d prefer to keep Despres and Picard out of our playoff lineup, personally.
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.
DAMN....WE NEED LETANG BACK....

who is Colin McDonald (pens player wearing 38)…. I have never heard of the guy
"He doesn’t know whether to cry or wind his watch."..... Mike Lange
Right there with you. Apparently he’s been doing all kinds of great in the AHL, though.
Jagr? I don't even know 'er.

They need to keep slamming Gabby
very injury prone, get him out of the lineup for awhile and we can make up some ground
Thats what she said! - Michael Gary Scott
How about… I dunno. playing clean, and winning games the old fashioned way? (outworking, outscoring the other team?)

or finish off our checks is what i meant. Gaborik is pretty soft and usual ends up on the shelf. We keep doing that and maybe he goes out for awhile, which benefits us long term. Relax Ranger fan.

And if we say the same about Crosby when he comes back, then what say you, Penguin fan?

thats fine
a clean body check is a clean body check, nothing wrong with finishing off your man.

Im not in the camp
where Sid cant be touched, its hockey, your meant to get roughed up a bit

I gotta go. Do-something-fun-a-thon (aka people coming over to do random fun stuff while drinking too much) is about to begin.

Alright boys
were not beating Lundquist glove side, aim somewhere else
Thats what she said! - Michael Gary Scott
this is one of those times
where if we had Sid Id feel this is do able, without well, I feel like this game is already out of reach

Has to lead the league in being involved in disallowed goals.

some of you dont seem to be happy about the refs
Is hockey hard? "I don't know, you tell me. We need to have the strength and power of a football player, the stamina of a marathon runner, and the concentration of a brain surgeon. But we need to put all this together while moving at high speeds on a cold and slippery surface while 5 other guys use clubs to try and kill us, oh yeah did I mention that this whole time we're standing on blades 1/8 of an inch thick? Is ice hockey hard? I don't know, you tell me. Next question."

i agree i think they've let both teams play physical
Maybe it’s the reaction to the no goal.
Don’t be mad at the refs because Henrik is why the Pens aren’t winning

You guys might have a different view but I think Staal shied away from the hit and then that initiated the knee on knee

Good game boys.
It’s almost unfair having Lundqvist sometimes. This was one of his “i’ll win this one myself” kind of games.

This game is Exhibit A...
… of why Lundqvist is a top-5 all-world goaltender.
And how effective dropping 5 men below the hashmarks to block shots is. It’s not exciting, and it leads to a ton of 2-0 and 3-1 games, but it works. Torts is no idiot, and he’s playing it to a “T.”
DUE TO THE LENGTH OF NHL HOCKEY
SKATE ELECTRIC WILL NOT BE SEEN
Yeah, there were some questionable no-calls, but nothing egregious other than the stick to Park’s eye which was tough for the stripes to see.
I won’t hang this one on the officials at all.
DUE TO THE LENGTH OF NHL HOCKEY
SKATE ELECTRIC WILL NOT BE SEEN
Question:
Is the girl who got hurt with the puck a member of the Staal family? I’m just saying that I wouldn’t be surprised at this point.
DUE TO THE LENGTH OF NHL HOCKEY
SKATE ELECTRIC WILL NOT BE SEEN
Frustrating when you can’t beat a good goaltender. Sometimes they steal it, and tonight, that—coupled with a short-handed goal at the worst time—is what did it.
Here’s hoping the Staal injury isn’t bad enough to keep him out next Weds. when they play here in D.C. I can’t stand watching Caps fans act as though that team’s better than the Pens when Pittsburgh’s down to one of their top 3 centers.
DUE TO THE LENGTH OF NHL HOCKEY
SKATE ELECTRIC WILL NOT BE SEEN
was about to say something similar
if Staal is not out long term, Letang is back at practice and Martin, big Z, Orpik are out there so were slowly getting healthy.
We just need to get to April and have everyone come to together then. I hope.
