We’re running out of excuses for their poor play.

As seen on the future 3peat DVD - "early in the season we had some trouble with our effort level. Maybe it was a little bit of burnout. Maybe the stakes just seemed lower than we're used to. But we knew once we got in to April, everyone would be ready to step up their game. "

Outshot the Canucks 39-21. They'll be allright.

Markstrom was really good last night too...not an excuse, just a statement of opinion...

Schultz and Hunwick return to practice in normal, full-contact jerseys.

Good.

I'd kill you Geno!

Finally got around to buying an LED base [which I had to modify] for my Pens glass:

Yes, I dusted the shelf off after taking the photos.

That's a shelf? I assumed it was dark gray shag carpet.

Not gonna lie, I celebrate every Minnesota loss, hoping we'll get Cullen back at the deadline.

Postby **NTP66** » Thu Nov 09, 2017 9:01 am

Yeah, corner shelf next to my desk.

Postby **nocera** » Thu Nov 09, 2017 9:11 am

**** Cullen.

Postby **Morkle** » Thu Nov 09, 2017 9:37 am

Yohe would love that, but Cullen ain't coming back, I think he's stated on a few occasions this is likely it and it's why he's moved his family for the final time. (not saying he himself wouldn't be back, just seems unlikely).

Just for one final Cup run. He can stay at Mario's.

Postby **Gaucho** » Thu Nov 09, 2017 10:40 am

Oh, hey, no hockey game tonight.

Postby **Silentom** » Thu Nov 09, 2017 10:43 am

Nope. B2B on Friday/Saturday, though.

Truly Penguin Randomness: Anthony Daniels will be at the Pens game on December 7th as part of the Star Wars night shenanigans.

I know most sports teams do this, but they usually don't have cast members there. Don't tell dodint.

I'm still waiting for Wrestling Superstar Virgil night.

But a Star Wars night with an Anthony Daniels meet & greet sounds like something a struggling franchise or minor league team would do. Not one supposedly around 500 consecutive sellouts.

Honestly, I appreciate the heads up so I can cross that off the calendar. I would've have been genuinely mad if I paid to go to that game and showed up to find out it was Fellate Lucas day.

Sincere thanks.

I wonder what Anthony Daniels is like in "real life", away from the fan stuff. He is always so **** perky on camera... there is no way someone can be that rainbows and happiness all of the time.

Apparently he and Kenny Baker didn't get along. Which is like finding out Adam Savage and Jamie Hyneman aren't friends in real life. Kenny claimed he was very rude and that the OT cast didn't like him at all.
