the years fly by, I remember when we used to be beautiful!

 

[Wes C Addle]

Need that swagger back

Sad face.

Happy coaches

I wish I still had my Jeff Taffe avatar saved somewhere.

I realized a while ago that I never saved my Farnham avatar anywhere when I switched to the playoff one. I'm in hell.

My prediction: Pens lose, but still make the playoffs because Boston loses to TBay.

 

[BrunoPuntzJones]

Happy coaches

The look on Bylsma's face there...he knew.

 

[Sideline]

Last one and then I'm done until the game

This thread is making me nostalgic and sad. Today feels like the end of an era for some reason.

We are scared to play Buffalo ... Man what have we become? **** my life

You are one of the most positive supporters on this board, and I am right there with you on this statement.


I'm old enough to remember the words I hated hearing most during the year, Mike Lang's call at the end of the last broadcast of the season "and we'll see you next fall on the Penguin's hockey network".

I hate that statement, but fear we may be hearing it tonight. I hate to turn this into a total downer, but I wonder how many more years Lang has left? Has he called his last Cup win?

Everything is so disappointing right now I'm gonna have to drink my way through the rest of the day.


Not that big of a change, I drink my way through every day.

Or maybe he could suit up and be their sixth defenseman.

He is Gordon Bombay's half brother so right there, you gotta believe he's at least as good as Adams if not better. Assuming he's not on meth today.

Right. Bruins would have to win in regulation/overtime and we'd have to lose to miss.

If we win, we're in.
If Boston loses (in any way) we're in.
If Boston wins in a shootout, and we get 1 point, we're in.
If Ottawa loses in regulation and we get 1 point, we're in.

Stop trying to bring me down, maaan.

The single most amazing thing this season is that you guys keep responding to this guy.

I know right?

For whatever reason, my gf is an all Dallas fan. Benn is like Getzlaf aka Lord Stick Infractor Esquire. Benn is like his long lost heir, amazing talent, bit of a brat and whiny at times.

Mmm, I dunno about that but if you say so. Sounds fishy.

Let's go old school. Old school lucky gifs, old school lucky avatars, old school usernames... whatever it takes.

Was it this one?

Winner. Those were the glorious days, when a shot at the playoffs meant something. Sort of.

GOOD LORD... chills. Man the glory days were so ****ing awesome.

They sure were, but we were as *****y and negative back then

Adams is starting at defence????????????????

Might as well. It's not like he contributes offensively.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

So many feels the last 2-3 pages.

Let's ride one last time with this glorious hooptie of a team.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Might as well. It's not like he contributes offensively.

God damn it, trying not to burst out laughing at work.

 

[Dipsy Doodle]

I'm feeling optimistic today.

I think we will beat the worst team in the league.

This is a toss-up.

It'd be an interesting turn of events if we do manage to sneak in. For the past 5 years, this team has wittered under the pressure of being Stanley Cup "contenders" (lol). Although I'm not getting any hopes up, I'd be curious to see how this team performs with nothing to lose.
