Draft the best player available, regardless of position

Exactly

Gesundheit

I seem to remember an article a coule of years ago where Geno's wife said something to the effect of "She'd rather he be a star center somewhere else but felt he'd never leave the Burgh". If true, I wonder how much of that would come into play ? Happy wife...happy life scenario.

Not to worry, if history repeats itself, the refs will let TB have their way with the Avs and only call penalties on the Avs.

reminiscent of how the pens were just too fast for san jose

Yeah. Last night I was thinking ... remember when the Pens had that speed ? Fun times.

He's the coach they deserve and they're the team he deserves. TB aside, since they won the Cup with him behind the bench, he's trashed just about every team he's coached. I'm looking forward to him doing that with Philly.

**** the entire state of Florida. Go Avs.

I lived there for 7 miserable years and, minus the "Go Avs", I said the same thing when I was crossing the stateline for the last time as a resident.

As long as NY lost, I'm a happy camper. Would like to see the Avs win it just because TB already has back to back Cups and it would be nice to watch someone else win it.

Watched it down at the arena with my son and his friend. Never gets old revisiting it. Preds fans have every right to be salty 5 years later. Terrible whistle. Doesn't mean they'd have won the game let alone the cup, but yeah it was inexcusable. I definitely didn't care that night though. That perf...

How much are we giving Erod on his next contract?

Too much.

True dat

Costs money to employee competent people.

Nutting can't use the Succos as a tax write off if they start winning and making money.

It felt like he was here longer than four seasons.

He probably felt that way too. I wish him well. Hopefully he'll get better treatment there than he did by the Pens .

Haha no we like you stone...but Crosby wears 87...which is a number, to be fair, he is very shy about... I posted that because of you Mikey. We had a Mikey on PUGs and I made the mistake of thinking you might be him. #89 was sarcasm just as #98 was sarcasm. I thought since you were from PUG you mig...

Not a bot but, OK I'll stop posting then. Byes !!

since Sid wears 89 we figured he should wear 98. https://media.giphy.com/media/cklpFpRfhSciOXzfG4/giphy.gif Sorry about the confusion. You had to be on that board I guess. Unfortunately it's no longer in existence so I can't even suggest going there to read posts and, yes, there was a "Holy Awesome...

He wore 98...? Woof...what a bender. Sorry, I forgot to say ... this, #98", was sarcasm we posted about him on another board. He was supposed to be the next greatest thing since Sid so, since Sid wears 89 we figured he should wear 98. It was meant as nothing more than a notice of him being as invis...

"I would not expect Malkin, Letang or Rust to be back."
-@Real_RobRossi

Rossi usually is WRONG !!!

The gold helmet dude

The helmet was fools gold and the Pens bought it. #98 was holy awesome...NOT !!!

I love the deal. It's a good one for both parties. "Rust said Tuesday that he would "absolutely" take a hometown discount to stay in Pittsburgh", saying it's a city that "holds a special place in my heart." He also said he wasn't out to rob anybody. Looks like he didn't. He most likely could have ma...

RR has the covid.

At least they don't have to worry about him being out of the lineup again.

I never expected them to win the series so the loss isn't what irritates me. What does is they were up 3-1,had a chance of winning it gave me hope, and blew it. then ripped it away.

FIFM

Much better. Thanks.

Well that sucked

removing another players helmet should be a penalty.

It is.

Only if the refs enforce the rule, which they didn't.
