GDT: UPDATE: Season Postponed. Pens at Jackets at a date TBD

[Ginger Papa]

UPDATE: Season Postponed

Due to Player & Public Safety concerns

​

Hello, Columbus, your coach we know
How we love to anger him so
But this year we’re like brothers
Injuries hit us worse than all the others
And the vision of playoffs still remains
Through these pains
Tonight we play in silence

Today we arrived in Ohio
Walked your streets of cobblestone
Tonight we plan to burn out the goal lamp
Under our feet your WC hopes we will stamp
When ears-drums split, to the explosion of cannon fire
A CBJ goal JJ just admired
That broke the sound of silence

And in Nationwide I saw
Ten thousand empty seats maybe more
Press talking without speaking
Fans hearing without listening
People tweeting info Bettman never shares
@Andy99 dared
Disturb the sound of silence

"Fools," said Geno "I am Score”
Pumped in 2 while Moose shut the door
Here’s a pass said Sid to Zucker
Bury it you little mother f***er
And Torts curses, like blessed raindrops fell
And echoed in the wells
of silence

So the people at home they stayed
Watching as the game was played
And again the goal light flashed out its glowing
More F-bombs Torts was throwing
And the sign said, "Pens Win, drive safe and take care”
To no one there
And not a peep was heard again from the Cannon

It only sat there in the sound of silence.

​

Please note: I mean no disrespect nor minimizing of the situation. My only intention is to hopefully provide a smile or a chuckle to you fine folks.

This game ain't gonna happen lol

Better get your "top-10 games in Penguins history" DVD ready because that's all of the hockey you're going to see for the next few months.

That is an outstanding effort for a GDT that probably won't need using. Kudos sir, kudos.

No gifs from GP? Now it feels like the end of times.

Don't think the game will happen but love how amazing you have been @Ginger Papa to this board. You really devoted a lot of time for us and GDTs.

Seconded.

Make sure you find your way back here after this is all over.

 

[Big Friggin Dummy]

I wonder what they're gonna decide. I'd assume games are going to be suspended for a month or so.

No fear. I have some. I was waiting for the lineups.

So nothing changes for the Pens since they suspended play like a month ago ...

The Pirates have been preparing for this pandemic for years now.

If a Sheary falls over in the offensive zone and nobody is there to see it... did it actually happen?

Watch Jack Johnson get injured in practice and have to be out for a few weeks.

That would be SO very Penguins...

More people talking about it on twitter than at PNC.

Thank you for the kind words. You folks have been very welcoming and patient with me as I’ve learned the ways of HF & doing GDT’s , especially @Ugene Malkin.

Best advice I’ve been given:

I kind of hope that they have games with no spectators, but being on Village Council I have a meeting with our MLA today and was going to miss it anyways. I understand that the health of the public is more important than any sport. However, even if the players get the virus, they will be fine. The problem is they all have families and everything should be done to ensure that the spread slows down. It's pretty telling when a virus that can be easily controlled simply by people washing their hands and not coughing on other people or surfaces can somehow spread like this. Really...wash your hands people...its not hard.

Rumor has it the season is going on a hiatus effective at 1 pm today, take it for what that's worth.
