This team does in fact stink. IMO

Granted, they were 6-2-2 in their last ten before last night, but did they at any point this season truly look like an elite team? I don't think so.

Briefly, during that Canada trip, I thought they had found something. They played close to a full 60 minutes during those games and were doing a lot of things right. Then, they won 4 of their next 16 games..

Yep. Currently 9th in the east but tied in points with the last playoff spot (ROW tiebreaker). They stink bad!!!

That West Coast road trip early in the season seems like an eternity going.

Here's the logo the Pens will be using for the Stadium Series game. Pretty good bet these will be on the jerseys also. I have pretty high hopes for these, actually. The logo is cool af.

Super cool of him and equally cool of the mother to stand there patiently until everyone in the line had the opportunity to meet him.

... so she left the kid in the car...

Postby **MR25** » Fri Dec 14, 2018 2:29 pm

... because he would not have been able to handle the mall.

Also doesn't specifically state that the kid was in the car by himself.

Postby **NTP66** » Fri Dec 14, 2018 2:42 pm

Jim is the kid...

Postby **nocera** » Fri Dec 14, 2018 2:47 pm

Honestly the most shocking part about that story is that over 100 people waited in line to meet Riikola.

Postby **Jim** » Fri Dec 14, 2018 2:54 pm

Yeah, but I prefer to think of it that way. "What, I cracked the window..."

"Riikola signed the stuff and took a picture wit the kid. The mom was promptly arrested."

Great story. It certainly beats the time when Barry Bonds laughed at me for the audacity of wanting his autograph prior to a home game in 1988. Douchecanoe. Stan Belinda and Spanky Lavalliere signed it for me. Spanky rolled his eyes and said "Don't mind him," when he saw Bonds laughing.

Similarly, Andy Van Slyke snubbed me in either 93 or 94. I just wanted him to sign my Hills baseball card. Jerk.

Well now you can sit back and laugh knowing the long term side effects of steroids have surely taken thier toll. I am sure his testicles are the size of peas and his moobs are a solid b cup. Who is laughing now?!

Lemieux autographed the official NHL score sheet for me back in 1997. I thought it'd be the last time I'd ever see him play, so I'm glad that it wasn't.
