Who thinks Fleischmann would be a decent add?

Who thinks Fleischmann would be a decent add?

Well, he has had a history of blood clots.

Hmmm. I see.

"Pittsburgh is 4-0 when he logs at least 18:00 of TOI"

So much to say about this tidbit, where to begin?

Well that stat will take on a life of its own on this board, I am sure

 

[billybudd]

If Downie gave Gudbranson the mumps, does that give him a win in their fight?

Not sure, but I think it gets him put on trial in the Hague or something.

 

[ColePens]

Sooo.... win?

Honestly I'm taking this one in and just enjoying it for what it's worth.

there was some insane stat in ... 2012-2013? Like either 1) The Pens never lost when he was in the lineup or 2) they never scored when he was on the ice.

Even Yohe was tweeting about it.

And then he went to the press box.

"Fun" is a perfect word for the game tonight, hopefully. Should be excellent.

 

[Jag68Sid87]

I don't care who is in and who has the mumps, I'm just happy Geno's back at center and I'm really hoping MJ will go with Comeau-Malkin-Rust for most of the game as our No. 2 line. Forget Spaling. Forget Sutter. Forget any other bottom sixer.

 

[flaneur]

carcillo is in goal for the pens?

good gdt

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Good lord this team is diseased but at least Adams is still gone, and good luck to Greiss because he's probably been pulling a Crosby.

Is Downie crazy enough to try and infect someone with the mumps?

 

[Freeptop]

Excellent work on the graphic, but is there a reason Hornqvist is the only one that doesn't have his first name in the lineup?

As for the lineup itself - boy am I glad it's only December...

 

[Stad]

GOT theme for the GDT, i approve of this.

Excellent work, Frederick.

His name is just too long and I didn't want to scale it down like I did with the Panthers line up.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

It's official.



GoT GDT

man, the @Penguins account tweeted an infographic about Despres and Dana just tweeted his jersey. Either he's about to get treated, or Ehrhoff, Martin and Maatta are out for a realllllllllllllllllllllllllllllly long time.

 

[ProgOg]

The Penguins also tweeted about Spaling's offensive production in his recent games - interestingly enough that he wasn't with Crosby when he scored all those points. And looking at his scoring log, Downie has his hands in like 90% of them.

Him and Crosby together are really a black hole of offensive production.

Seriously, Downie is in on 8 of his 14 points. Crosby in 2.

yes during the all in season they had this insane winning record with him in the lineup...EXCERPT(((Mar 21, 2013 - With Despres in the lineup, the Penguins are 17-4-0 as of March 17th. 5-4-0 without him)))). ... that went on for a while, then he was sat and they started to lose, byslma played him again and they were winning, they lost once with him in there and it was back to the bench for him...

 

[madinsomniac]

The pens are the Walking Mumped...

 

[Cherpak]

Sounds like MJ may use a defenseman for some minutes on the wing.

But he said Letang, Scuderi(duh), and Despres will not be the one used.

Sounds like DP is gonna get some wing time tonight.
