mikey's Thread of Penguin Randomness

[Beveridge]

League-wide Goals leader playing just half of the team's games? Do we have the 10-11 Crosby back?

He's bound to plateau on the goal scoring at some point, for sure, but it seems like he is setting himself up for a 50g campaign.

I'd be alright if Crosby decided to take the outdoor game off vs Philly this year.

Figured I'd share this here, too.

We need avatars *soooooo* bad.

Penguins have recalled defensemen Steve Oleksy and Chad Ruhwedel from Wilkes-Barre/Scranton. Had sent David Warsofsky down yesterday.

Extra depth, or somebody sick/injured?

[Gaucho]

ugh

[Beveridge]

Seems interesting to have 2 of them coming up.

Although they did send Sestito down, so 13F and 8D. Still seems oddish.

[Gaucho]

Kris Letang done for the year. Olli Maatta traded for Trouba. Jeff Schultz decided to pursue a baseball career.

[Gaucho]

Ian Cole married the penalty box, sez "it's the only way I get some action."

Source of the post Kris Letang done for the year.

My heart literally skipped a beat when I first read this, you prick.

[Gaucho]

sry m8

[NTP66]

Warsofsky was apparently re-assigned yesterday.

[Gaucho]

Ruhwedel and Oleksy are both right handed. Now I'm worried.

[NTP66]

They're also the top two defensemen in WBS on the depth chart, no?

[Silentom]

'member when we had all those stalwart defensive prospects?

[Gaucho]

How Sneep it was.

I 'member Kendrell Bell...

[meow]

How Sneep it was.

NHL point per game player Carl Sneep?

Interesting.

[Lemon Berry Lobster]

Murray first goalie off the ice today

[Gaucho]

And so it begins.

[NTP66]

It has already begun.

[Gaucho]

Yes.

[NTP66]

That's the spirit.

[meow]

Get a shutout, get the next game.

Dug up these stats for something else, but figured it was worth sharing. Crosby's points-per-game average for each individual season:

2005-2006: 1.26
2006-2007: 1.52
2007-2008: 1.36
2008-2009: 1.34
2009-2010: 1.35
2010-2011: 1.61
2011-2012: 1.68
2012-2013: 1.56
2013-2014: 1.30
2014-2015: 1.09
2015-2016: 1.06
2016-2017: 1.67

He's nothing if not consistent.
