Is now a good time to point out just how many people at LGP were infuriated that we signed Cullen in the offseason?
Heck, there were people here who said "He's 39? Why are we signing old guys?"

It's funny, I like old Cullen a lot more than I liked younger Cullen. I didn't really care much for the previous iterations of Cullen...this Cullen seems much more focused, task-oriented but still with the requisite skills to make things happen in a small spot.

Being an anonymous top-six forward was doing it for me...this third/fourth line center Cullen has been found money...

What I remember was people comparing him to and expecting Craig Adams, a career 4th liner.

Apparently already insufferable talk radio shows are trying to become even more unlistenable by making the Letang incident their only topic of discussion regarding last night's game. Should have been a minor penalty, wasn't intentional, no suspension is warranted. Move on with your lives you insignificant groupthink mental midgets.

There are a few people on HF that think Letang tried to kill Stalberg, lol.

These are also the same people whining about the offsides goal being a NHL conspiracy.

I hate the fact that it takes so long to go through the review, but last night was a prime example of why it's needed.

They hate it, lol. Because it 'changed the complexion of the game'. They were dodinting about the instances it happened to other teams, too.

Now this is a praise I didn't read in Rorabaugh's postgame.... from Yohe (paywall).
Matt Murray, the second-youngest player on the Madison Square Garden ice Tuesday, sat at the near end of the visitor’s locker room after leading the Penguins to a 3-1 victory over the Rangers.

At the opposite end was Matt Cullen, the oldest player on the ice in Game 3. Cullen watched as droves of reporters surrounded Murray, who is as unflappable with cameras in his face as when pucks are flying at him.

“Look at him,” Cullen said, shaking his head. “Are you serious? That kid … that kid is a special one.”

To a degree it does, but it's the price of doing business to get the call right. On the other hand, I don't believe goaltender interference should be reviewable.

Sure the replay is supposed to take care of the ridiculous misses by NHL officials... but I'm not going to get my panties in a twist if it also fixes the ones barely missed.

Just as I'd hate to lose a football game because the WR stepped an inch out of bounds and it was missed, I'd hate to lose a hockey game because a guy was offsides.

It's black and white, and in the world of NHL officiating - that's more than we can hope for.

Stop listening to the woman and the grump on the fan.... why anyone pays those idiots to talk about sports is beyond me.

Not that his means much, but I'd rather take an accidental stick to the mouth than have a 6'3" 230 pound Rick Nash drop an elbow from the top rope on my head

He was doing his best Ovechkin impression on that play, maybe with a little less space between his skates and the ice.

Probably the same number of experts who thought Sheary wasn't worth the uniform he was wearing.
meh. The vast majority of this site underperform in their 'expertise'.
There's only one Draftnik...seriously

Oh hell no. Yesterday my dumb ass was pretty much calling for Maatta to be sent to Wheeling's third paring.

If he has a son, he should name him Parc.
Jarry doesn't look old enough to own a dog, much less have a son.
I meant if as in when he does. Either way, Parc Jarry would make old time Expo fans wax nostalgic.
