GDT: This Is Not A Drill, I Repeat This Is Not A Drill !! - Let's Get Off To A Flying Start @ 17.30EST

[ColePens]

I cannot wait til Ceci gives his best Jack Johnson impression.

 

[66-30-33]

Haven't been paying attention to camp at all so I was getting super hyped then remembered we signed Cody Ceci.

Oh well let's go Pens

Never trust a man who has a name that tells you to look twice.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

Ceci with 5 points tonight, dick touching will ensue.

 

[Gurglesons]

Can't wait until Cody Ceci makes a big blocked shot on the PK and is on our roster for the rest of the season because of it.

 

[Gurglesons]

It took Sullivan a whole lost series and four months to figure that out? Failure to change strategy against MTL was one of our biggest problems

Hypothetically trying to change an entire team's breakout in a four game series is probably not the way to go.

 

[Gurglesons]

Kunitz, Crosby, Dupuis
Guentzel, Malkin, Rust
Cooke, Staal, Kennedy
Aston-Reese, Blueger, Tanev

Dumoulin, Letang
Martin, Niskanen
Matheson, Marino

Jarry
Johnson

Chad Johnson got signed again? Ugh. JR loves his retreads!

 

[Flying Dego]

Can't wait until Cody Ceci makes a big blocked shot on the PK and is on our roster for the rest of the season because of it.

I don't see how anyone has the illusion of something different. Sullivan has talked about how important he is to the PK. He doesn't come out unless injured. I'll be shocked if he's healthy scratched.

 

[The Grim Reaper]

Any possibility that Ceci won't be the new whipping boy?

Gotta tip my hat to you. Well done ol' chap.

Martin-Michalek would have been funnier.

Hypothetically trying to change an entire team's breakout in a four game series is probably not the way to go.

it is if you’re losing in the playoffs and one reason in part is that the opposing team is on your breakouts like flies on shit...you gotta try different stuff on the fly to win..

 

[Certified Assassin]

Are we doing a “Pens Predict” this year?







... asked the reigning champ.

I don't think so. Molon Labe said he needed a break, and I'm far too busy during this time with work to focus on keeping everything updated. Combine that with the low turnout and interest overall, and it's hard to get enthused about keeping up with it every other day. I wish we could keep it going somehow, though.

Let's Go Pens!

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Any possibility that Ceci won't be the new whipping boy?

Someone else could be worse. When is dear old ZAR getting back?


In a way I suppose we want CC to be the whipping boy because it’s at least predictable and not a more important player.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

I cannot wait til Ceci gives his best Jack Johnson impression.

people forget Jack Johnson nearly began his Pens career with a breakaway game winning goal in the season opener vs the Caps.

Sometimes I wonder about how life could be different had he buried it.

 

[PensPlz]

Ceci with 5 points tonight, dick touching will ensue.

I'm readyyy

 

[BHD]

Finally, a gameday thread.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

Excited to watch the new guys. Shame that Kap isn't playing yet--really excited to see how/where he fits into the lineup.

Expecting big things from this top-6. It's about as good or better than we've ever had in the Sid/Geno era, imo.

 

[mrzeigler]

Wasn't till I logged in just now that I realized how much I needed hockey back.

unrelated: Is the hfboards search function terrible, or am I simply an idiot? Tried tracking down a jersey mockup that paid tribute to Van Damme's "Sudden Death" and I keep coming up empty. It was posted in here three, maybe four years ago.

Failure to change or refusal to change?

Oh it's been useless from the start.

I think I found what I was looking for once in 2004.

 

[Flying Dego]

Carter Hart seems to be a favorite choice for Vezina. Good thing we play well against elite goaltenders! If he were AHL fodder I'd be more concerned.

 

[The Great Mighty Poo]

SOON...er...ish...ly

 

[OscarsCards]

Go Team!!! Go ice hockey sports!!

Gotcha. Luckily, Google didn't fail me.
