So, as a Canucks fan I have huge issues with Tortorella. He committed an unholy trinity of sins in his short tenure in Vancouver:

1. He clipped the wings from the beautiful skill game of the Sedins

2. Benched Roberto Luongo in place of Eddie Lack at the Outdoor Heritage Classic in Vancouver

3. Got himself suspended and embarrassed the franchise (which was quite capable of embarrassing itself on the ice thank you very much) by this stunt:

​

I know he earned his Jack Adams for CBJ, does a lot of wonderful things off the ice for the SPCA and is a good person when he speaks in summer interviews, but when I hear those things, the fan in me just says:

​

So enough about my Torts issues and the Canucks, we're here to celebrate the Pens and their upcoming destruction of the Jackets in Blue.


In reviewing the last PGT, I think I speak for the majority of Members to Simon, Reese & Letang:

But we believe you have learned from your mistakes:

We are praying for each of you to have a strong game:

And we've also amped up the strength of our
Anti-Snake Bite GIF:

So let's play nasty and come out swinging:

​

Music for Tonight's Game is a reflection of our opponent, a medley. I decided that because our opponent does not currently possess an identity I would post a variety of music from different music genres. Take your pick, sample as you wish and enjoy. Please note that most of the songs only pasted in as hyperlinks, but I've checked them all and each are functional.

Torts before, during and after the game.

Say what you will about Torts, but I thought he was great in Orange is the New Black.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Hoping Murray shuts these clowns out and Johnson scores a hat trick.
