Pre-Game Talk: All Purpose Off Day Thread

[LOGiK]

If

If you would start at 6:00 to 7:00 am and get off work at 2:00/3:00 pm come home eat, rest then hit the sack by 4:00 pm and get up at midnight for regular games and 2:00 am for west coast games.

Early bird gets the worm, and maximizes your day.

Slackers.

Early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

4 day work week?

No, but close. Every other Friday off.

 

[Andy99]

My workday was starting at 6am and going at least 10 hours. Didn't care for it.

If you ever get annoyed, look at me I’m self-employed
I love to work at nothing all day...

 

[LOGiK]

Well, for those who enjoy watching good hockey, and to pay attention to our foes, (and can't wait until 10pm) BJacks play at 7pm and the Caps play at 8pm.

Early bird gets the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese.

Cheese?

Ha!

I ain't that generous.

 

[LOGiK]

Cheese?

Ha!

I ain't that generous.

It's my favorite line to combat the snootyness of someone saying that to me because I wasn't first or earliest, say a boss or someone trying to be slick, and it usually shuts them up. Unless they are so dumb they don't even get it and I have to explain a mouse trap with cheese bait to them. Then I just wonder how they ever got anywhere in life. haha

 

[Ogrezilla]

Because we live in civilized places where the work day doesn't start until 10:30, and it's perfectly acceptable have 3 really strong coffees before 1:30 p.m.

I don't have a problem with it starting when it does. It's nice being home at 4:45 most days and having plenty of day left. Though the rest of the civilized world also just works less than we do I think

 

[LOGiK]

Do we get a gdt tonight or we just wing'n it?

Well we had it tough. We used to have to get up out of the shoebox at twelve o'clock at night, and LICK the road clean with our tongues. We had half a handful of freezing cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at the mill for fourpence every six years, and when we got home, our Dad would slice us in two with a bread knife.

Right. I had to get up in the morning at ten o'clock at night, half an hour before I went to bed, drink a cup of sulphuric acid, work twenty-nine hours a day down mill, and pay mill owner for permission to come to work, and when we got home, our Dad and our mother would kill us, and dance about on our graves singing 'Hallelujah.'


p.s. People say its the early bird that gets the worm but never stop to think about what happened to the early worm.

Why does 2006 Cullen look like he’s from the 70’s (Ian Cole with some love in the comments).

I really liked being on Taipei time because then I was 12 hours ahead of everything in Pittsburgh. Nothing like watching a game over shao bing and milk tea.

We're veering into off-topic stuff. Hence, Degen deleting some comments. Let's bring it back to talking about the team.

Exclusive: Patric Hornqvist flies to meet Penguins in Phoenix

Surprised no ones talking bout this.
Maybe he gets into a game out west, we'll see.

I think we'll see both Blandisi and Hornqvist in on Friday, which is really nice to see. Hopefully, we'll have a new 3C in at that point too

Sheahan-Cullen-Blandisi seems like a type of 4th line that the Penguins would use with ZAR out.

The field mouse is fast, but the owl sees at night.

Was thinking we'll see Murray tomorrow and CSD Saturday.

I don’t like it. They should be extra cautious with him and missing the next two will give him 3 weeks off total before the next game. A lot more reasonable than just over a week

Yeah I wasn't happy to see that bit of news. This team better not play him out of desperation. Let him sit and rest until after the allstar break.

 

[Tom Hanks]

The Penguins traded Jim Rutherford (for Stackhouse) on this day 45 years ago

 

[Al Smith]

Stackhouse was chronically underrated and overhated, mostly because he didn’t fight/wasn’t physical enough for a D (the ynizers hated that) and was tall and rangy and looked like he was a more languid skater than he actually was.

 

[Gurglesons]

Can’t wait until we stack up some wins now that Riikola is back in the line up and Brassard - Kessel is over.

 

[Empoleon8771]

Bye bye Oleksiak please? And I feel bad for Malkin, that's a yikes wing combination.

 

[ncm7772]

What's Comrie up to these days? Bet he's in the best shape of his life™

Now that's old school! Haha, stumbled across his Hockey Reference page not long ago.

Don’t worry Phil is motivated

Half of that wing combo is fine.
