All the French Canadian Pens will be in attendance for the inaugural NHL game (?) at the new Quebec City arena. No Malkin, Crosby or Kessel (saving them for Johnstown?) = some pretty annoyed Quebecois fans (judging by their salty tweets)

Erixon finally gets a game. I'm not happy about throwing MAF to the wolves.

Please keep us apprised of any Quebecois rioting. Don't let Vancouver have all of the fun. :sarcasm:

Also LOL @ Special Assistant TO the Head Coach : Jacques Schrute

pshaw. quebec has been having hockey riots before the canucks even came into existence. :laugh:

yeah. the game is probably going to be pretty one-sided. the habs are basically dressing their complete line-up.

I was well impressed by what I saw of Sprong against the Jackets. If he can hold his own without Sid, Geno or Kessel on the ice with him then I can see him getting a shot for 9 games.
He seemed so poised, patient and made good decisions. Regular season NHL may be beyond him but I think it's worth a shot.
Pouliot was poor from what I saw, not the top 4 D we need him to be this year! ..... Needs to work on his D zone play big time!

I'm interested to see how Dupuis plays in a top 6 role right now without Sid or Geno.

We'll see if DP steps up after MJ gave him some tough love.

The Pens are playing about 2 miles from my apartment.

Too bad I don't want to shell 200$ to see the Habs play in Quebec City. They can **** right off. Why couldn't the NHL do Pens vs ANYONE ELSE! :laugh:

I would barely play 20 bucks to see THAT pens lineup. It looks brutally lopsided this one.

Bah I couldn't care less, as long as no one get's hurt.

3 games left after tonight's, hopefully we start seeing a full roster after tonight so they can gel a little and find some chemistry going in.

Should be a disaster for the Pens, hope Fleury doesn't get shelled too badly.

The tickets to this game really are $200 Cdn?

They're desperate to get a team back in QC, so they need to buy tickets.

Also the tickets went on sale a long time ago, when people see the Pens coming to town they're thinking Crosby-Malkin ++. So ya, I'd be pissed too but it's life and in preseason you buy tickets you have to expect that.

What game is that from? He looks like he's 30 :laugh:

It was from today. Every time he plays a skilled winger out of position in the bottom 6, he looks a month younger.

By this time next month, we'll only be able to see him via ultrasound.

Seriously. The more last year went on, the lighter his hair got. It was very weird.

I feel bad for the citizens of Quebec. Shelling out that much money to essentially watch the WBS Penguins. You couldn't make me watch that disaster of a lineup even if you gave me the clockwork orange treatment.

Hoping Erixon steps up, but I'm not counting on it. Jackets fans didn't have great things to say about him in the offseason. He's a guy that either puts it all together and becomes a top four guy or drowns in the A. Regardless, you have to see what you have, and if at least one of Erixon / Clendening put it together, we'll be better off.
