GDT: The Return of Cole - Penguins @ Blue Jackets @ 19:00EST

[LOGiK]

It doesn't HAVE to be that way. But it probably will.

Odds are

 

[LOGiK]

Actually with the new lottery the way it is, we have a better chance at re-tooling on the fly to keep things going.

Could finish 10th worst and get into the top 3 during any of those years.

For what it's worth I think the entire organization and fan base will be hungover for a few years and possibly enter severe depression when Sid and Geno leave.
Just way to many memories to just move on from them not playing in the league any longer.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Yeah. And honestly it'll be really bad for those of us that endured the Dark Era. Those were... indescribably bad years of hockey. Ryan Malone, Rico Fata and Dick Tarnstrom were very often the guys we hung our hats on, here. Having to go back to that after all this would suuuuuuuuuck.

Though frankly, especially under a cap system and (hopefully) stable ownership moving forward... I doubt it will ever get THAT bad, again. I mean... when you are looking at Ramzi Abid as your hopeful power forward wing prospect... shit is lean.

I was super upset when Kovalev left. I loved that guy.

[Sidney the Kidney]

I wonder if Murray's going to get back to back starts again if we lose tonight.

If we win, I could see DeSmith get the Ottawa start. But if we lose tonight, we sort of need the win tomorrow to keep any shot at home ice alive.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

I was super upset when Kovalev left. I loved that guy.

Me too. I'd maybe even say he was probably my favorite of that weird in-between era before the dark years.

I always loved Jagr, despite the warts, of course. But it was tough to NOT see he wasn't going to be around much longer. Regardless of what he has said years later. And Kovy was a different kind of player, anyway. In some ways smoother than Jags. Certainly a deadlier shooter. I'll never forget the moonwalk...

But yeah... everyone harps about how horrible the Jagr deal was. The Kovalev deal was the REAL stinker.

 

[Shaffer]

How long before someone loses their shit?

Calling it, Ian Cole scores with Crosby and Letang on the ice.

 

[NeedleInTheHay]

Who cares about this game? Let Columbus blow their load as they treat it like game 7 in the cup. Pens should worry about being healthy.

 

[Fatty McLardy]

I expect Columbus's fake tough guys like Dubinsky and Jenner try to get under the skin of our stars...

You know Torts is making this game into something wayyy bigger than what it is..

 

[Shaffer]

Kuhn's a key PKer, guys.

Stan looked disgusted while saying that

We need some more gratitude....everyone does...

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Let's f*** these bitches up!

I just loved his cut into the center and ripping those wristers.
The moonwalk! LOL, I forgot about that. Classic.

 

[JakeNBake59]

oh goody the CBJ feed for tonight

 

[xxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Just get outta the rest of the season healthy. That's all I really care about.

 

[Bingo71]

Hang on to your butts.

 

[Scandale du Jour]

oh goody the CBJ feed for tonight

I luckily get the Pens feed tonight.

 

[TNT87]

Lets Go Pens!

 

[LOGiK]

oh goody the CBJ feed for tonight

Yeah I'm not watching ATNT on the tv I'm on a stream on the computer and it's CBJ feed.

 

[Clare2904]

Got the BJ feed, guy between the bench says they should concentrate on getting Geno off his game. Poke that bear motherf***ers

 

[LOGiK]

Of course the CBJ pregame has to show Crosby getting mauled by the goon squad.

 

[BlindWillyMcHurt]

Got the BJ feed, guy between the bench says they should concentrate on getting Geno off his game. Poke that bear mother****ers

Oh please, please, please try this, Torts.

I was really hoping for a big night from Geno to shore up that 100 point season.

 

[Fatty McLardy]

When Geno is angry and engaged, i haven't seen a more dominant player since Mario.

 

[PensandCaps]

Im actually looking forward to seeing how this team looks without Malkin and Crosby, Will be fun. I don't think they'll be bad once they retire.
