edit: note - i post nearly all Colligan articles. I am neither endorsing his viewpoint nor excusing Crosby, I am merely sharing a piece by a writer I respect. Please do not yell at me for defending Sidney Crosby.

Why do you hate Geno!?

WHY!?!?!?

To me, Jokinen is showing the Hustle Satan showed when he was put in the bottom 6 and did whatever role the team needed from him. Jokinen is one guy I am not angry with at all, Neal on the other hand...lacking a ton. Not enough to scratch him though, either.

People have questioned Jokinen all season, and I'm not quite sure why. Sure, he's not exactly everything you'd want in a top 6 winger but he's still been pretty effective -- 21 goals & 57 points in the regular season, and 3 goals & 4 points so far in the playoffs.

GDT is up.

Just win. No Game 7 bollocks.

Also, is this the first elimination game in the series?

Yes, because this is the first game a team has had 3 wins.

But she now is carrying the next great hockey player in her belly. She should send him a thank you card.

You know that you are only allowed to prop up one Penguins superstar around here right? If you like one, and find reasons for them not playing well, that means you hate the other.

Oh, don't worry, we've already named him MealTicket.


And I prop Geno up just fine! He's had the same shoulder injury for 5 seasons now!

I don't get it though, I thought you liked Sidney Crosby...? You can't really be defending both can you? I don't understand.
