Yeah, I know. I need to work on that. Going for the gusto. Grabbing that brass ring. Having an aneurysm over line combinations and other things I can't control. It's a work in progress.
Er... you dumb sonofabitch!
Baby steps.
This looks doctored to me. Clearly, you have access to a vocal impersonator. And, let's just say that Phil giving an interview without hot dog in hand is HIGHLY suspicious.

You conveniently cut the bottom of the screen off so we can't see Jones slip Milbury a 50 and tickets to Disney on Ice to say the decidedly weird (for Milbury) things he said about Geno, there.

Seeing that Carter Rowney is back in the lineup after having been Rowney-free for a couple of games last week makes me sad.
Hopefully Rowney can make me eat crow at some point. I mean, law of averages suggest he's due for a good game at some point, right?
...Right?

Gotta get with it homie.
My wife just sent me pics of Tyler Kennedy running shooting drills with my daughter at her practice today.
I'm now pulling her out of spring hockey.
See, I don't half ass it. I go all the way over the top.
Actually, if you were over the top, then you'd have left her there, because I can't think of a more vicious, 'over the top' if you will, hockey incarnation of child abuse than leaving your child to be tutored as a shooter by Tyler 'Chest Snipe' Kennedy.

Yeah, but pulling the kid is perfectly rational. Now, LEAVING her there . . . that crazy **** would truly be over the top.
What a 'do as I say, not as I do' talker @Mr Jiggyfly is . . .

I'm only playing.
He was doing a hell of a job in the video she sent of showing her how to slide on her inside edge and release the puck. Really impressed.
Now if he starts licking his stick in front of her, well, ya I'm gonna pull her for real, that's just nasty...

Hahahaha... that's awesome. I always gave the "best third line in hockey" a bit of stick back in the day but always had kind of a soft spot for TK. I even thought earlier in his career that maybe he could slide into the top six. Not so much. But he had pretty decent offensive instincts... all the way up until the puck left his stick.
Still... guy managed to be a 20 goal scorer in this league. That's not easy to do. Especially with Staal as your playmaker.

I'm not sure we win the 2009 cup if he doesn't win the cup stacking race against Camp Mohawk.

Wasn’t he mainly with Malkin and Crosby for that 20 goal season?

He very well might have been. That would make a lot of sense. I honestly don't remember. That was the dreaded year of the Return Of Kovalev. I do remember THAT.

I looked it up and it looked like 8 goals with either Crosby and Malkin and then he scored a ton once they both went down with Letestu and Chris Connor.
But I remember him being with Crosby randomly before Crosby went on his point stretch.

Oh my goodness... Chris Connor...
Did Kovalev play center out of desperation at points near the end of that season? My brain is probably pulling that out of nothing but I swear I remember that being a thing.
No Crosby, Malkin OR Staal for large stretches that season. Yikes.

Nope.
2010-2011 was the season Sid was racking up points with Kunitz and Dupuis and then got concussed (twice) to end his season.
2010-2011 was also the season where Geno's season ending knee injury might have been a step up from starting the season as a RW on a Tangradi-Comrie-Malkin line in anticipation of a permanent shift to Staal's wing.
It took me years of psychiatric aid to forget that year, and in one fell post, you just flushed it down the toilet for me.
Grand. Great. Thanks a lot.

STAALKIN!
What a killer idea that was! Nothing completely backwards and ridiculous about it. Nope.
I'm trying to figure out what was more psychologically scarring. Christensen centering Sid when he was a rookie or Tangradi-Comrie-Staal for a month or so to start Geno's 5th season in the league.
Good lord . . .

You've forgotten about Mike Johnston insisting that Brandon flipping Sutter "show Geno the ropes" at center while Malkin played wing for 10+ games, haven't you?
And lol -- Christensen. Used to be a favorite prospect of mine. Shootout master!
