That’s it! I remember at the time watching his film and thinking “Well none of this translates to NA, but we will see”

Jesus. 82 points in 70 games in the American league! Hard to believe he only gave it one shot..

Only played in 7 NHL games with the Pens and I don't remember this:

He left Kazan after two seasons for a try-out contract with the Winnipeg Jets of the National Hockey League (NHL) on 11 August 2011. He was released from the Jets on 2 October, after failing to get an extended offer.

Big fish in a small pond... but chum in a lake, much less the ocean.

No on cares that Simon signed with Calgary?

It was in NPR, and that's exactly when DD finally climaxed...

It was like a prostate massage.

Just watched a random YouTube suggestion of “how are you in the NHL?” One was Tanner Glass missing a wide open 4x6. The. It occurred to me Tanev is what we thought Tanner was going to be. Hits is such a horseshit stat.

I came across this game on YouTube. 2005 feels like ages ago, and I guess it is. But damn, a rookie Crosby, Lemieux still playing, Ziggy **** Palffy, Penguins legend John LeClair, OLN. What a weird time.

Sami Vatanen still being available makes me very sad that we signed Cody Ceci. He’s gonna have a sign a bargain deal one way or another

Uhhhh....

Get out of here.

Heasley is a great dude. Bethel Park kid.

Post by **Dickie Dunn** » Mon Oct 26, 2020 12:35 pm

That’s awesome. I played squirt hockey with Heasley.

And that’s where you peaked

Post by **Dickie Dunn** » Mon Oct 26, 2020 1:02 pm

I peaked when Simon signed with Calgary.

9th on the depth chart.

Didn't he play last year?

Post by **Dickie Dunn** » Mon Oct 26, 2020 5:11 pm

HCMS would definitely play Daley over Riikola.

just got an email out of the blue for a STH pre-sale - Pens are selling all kinds of stuff. Jerseys, nameplates from lockers, sticks, pucks.. snagged a Horny signed jersey for 125 and a piece of the glass from the Winter Classic for 25. Not bad. Open to the public at Noon
