Get up boys it’s GAMEDAY!

 

[The Old Master]

seems like I've been waiting forever.

 

[Bingo71]

I’ll have my eye on that Jack Johnson cat tonight. I really think he can be something special...

 

[HandshakeLine]

Taking bets on how many defensemen will be on this roster after the first period. I say 10.

Will #1 star Dominik Simon toss an autographed puck to @Shockmaster after the game? Stay tuned!

If he does, I'm sure his tossing motion will have a high Corsi.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

I won't be able to watch unfortunately, but I am hoping for a good start and that JJ plays so bad, without costing us the game, that he is then perma scratched.

And we’re playing the only one who shouldn’t be there...lol

 

[Andy99]

Wooo hoooo....opening night!

 

[HandshakeLine]

Maybe GMJR can trade Simon + Bjugs during the intermission for RR in order to get maximum d-fens.

 

[WickedWrister]

oh lets f***ing get it boys

Your PucksFor% is going to be through the roof if you can just be patient for 20-30 games.

Pens employ the Reverse Swedish Torpedo and ice a line of 5 D and then pull Murray for a 6th!

The Gordon Bombay gambit, but with an Air Bud! This is insanity!

Still waiting for that UsefulInPlayoffs% stat to kick in. But hey, at least I got the OneGoalIn30SomeGames% for the time being!

 

[EightyOne]

Hockey is back??!??

 

[Empoleon8771]

Galchenyuk looks good to go for tonight, no roster changes.

Yuck...see second D pair...

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

We're really getting the JJ-Schultz pair, huh? Awesome stuff.

Weird how it seemingly just magically happens after JR defends him in the media.

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I hope JJ has a hat trick tonight.

I just want the outcome that results in the most chaos

9-8 Penguins win with Johnson, Gudbranson, Simon, Sprong and ZAR getting all of the Penguins goals.
