Penguins 2016-2017 Season Opener

[PFiDC]

How nice of the NHL to schedule the Caps as the hope opener for Pittsburgh so they could be there for the Cup banner ceremony. Seems 1) someone in NHL has a sick sense of humor and 2) the lack of respect for Leonsis and co is palpable. On the other hand, maybe players get their noses rubbed it in will help in a perverse sort of way...............

Of course, Teddy is probably planning the Presidents Trophy banner ceremony as we speak..............

did a human being really say this non-sarcastically?

It's not a lack of respect, it's an acknowledgement that Pens-Caps is one of the best rivalries in the sport, and it makes sense to kick off the season with a marquee matchup.

That it is also a cosmically perverse (in a good way) troll job is just a coinkeydink.
