So what's the reaction if Sid burns Despres repeatedly?
Over/under of Despres doing something awesome and Steigy going "That's something he never showed us while with the Penguins"?
Why hasn't Sid done this all season?

mpp9 always looks to provoke the weirdest reactions when people have an opinion he doesn't like.
Like, no one in the Despres' threads think he's perfect. We've all seen him burned by Tavares and a few other stars this year.
if he has a bad game, it's not the end of the world.
In the end, isn't that the point of all the Despres threads? Some inconsistency in a 60-game stretch for a 23-year old Dman... isn't the end of the world.
If Despres gets burned by Sid or Geno tomorrow... I mean... **** happens? He'll probably go to video after the game, the coaches will tell him what he should do, and he'll learn and grow? And life will go on? And it will still be a bad trade?
What if a meteor falls on the Honda Center tomorrow night?
I'd wager because they were on the same team.
Because that's what I implied with that sentence. Obviously.

Thank you for addressing my very real concerns.
Good luck to you guys.
For both our fanbases' sake, I hope Lovejoy scores one while Despres is on the ice.
On a more game-related note, the Pens will need to take advantage of an inevitably-sluggish 2nd period by the Ducks in order to win. 1st will be a wash, but the 3rd is when we really pick up our game.
If the Ducks have the lead after two periods then you can shut off the TV because it's a win for Anaheim.
Basically sums it up. It's like he'll point to us all and laugh and say, "HAH! I told you so! You're all stupid for liking Despres as a player so much, and overreacting to this trade!"
When in reality, all we want is to see this team actually be bothered to teach a young kid how to grow as a player, show confidence in him, and not give up at the first sign of regression. Or in other words, what the people in the know call "player development."

ok, I'll do the what if.......what if faty lays out sid or geno and they are done for the yr.
I'm just taking a headcount on how many are more interested in how Despres looks next game than Sid and Geno.
I'm not commenting on our garbage player development. Or even Despres possibly making us look stupid for trading him.
Thank you for addressing my very real concerns.
IIRC, I heard a stat today on the radio that the Pens have yet to come back from being behind going into the 3rd period. Don't know if that's accurate or not.
Nope.
