I remember she and Malkin made perogies for Pens TV, back before Geno spoke much English. Good times.
I remember that. Letang drops in when the buzzer goes off with some line like "do I smell perogies?" :lol:

What happened to Alyonka Larionov?
</creeper>

Note: Cold Fusion style syntax for shmenguin
last I saw of her, she was part of TSN's trade deadline show and her primary thing was to read tweets. That had to be at least at least 3-4 years ago.

I just checked her twitter and she looks like she recently started typing all of her posts with //Noted, //Post, and //Quote. It's kinda annoying.

Jagr's garage league story, part 4:

Jagr's Kladno (away game) wins 2:1 in OT. Jagr with no points.

Since Jagr's return, Kladno with 5 points out of possible 12 in 4 games. Jagr with a total of 0 goals and 4 assists (but 3 of them in the very first game involving Petr Nedved and the team of juniors). Kladno clinging to the 3rd place with 3 games to go in the regular season, 2 points ahead of teams No. 4&5.

I think it's time for him to take the rest of the season off, sign with the Pens in the off-season for one game, and have his jersey retired in the rafters.

Nah, it can't be...he's a GM in the Q...I think he retired shortly after he quit on us one season...

That's Dominik Frodl:

Remember we are talking about the second Czech league. No stars there (interestingly, though, one of the Slovenian players who scored against USA today plays in that league, I believe).

Really a strange end of the career for one of the best players in the history. Today he played in front of the sold out crowd. 4,000 people...

Man, this nonsense from the officials in the SJ/ARI game even had me heated by the end of it all:

I definitely call Keller for a rough. I definitely call Martinook for the cross check into the net. I definitely call Goodrow for punching a guy right in the beak. I likely don't see enough on the offside force to make a call, doesn't mean it's not a penalty, just talking about my own limitations. And I don't do anything about the other stuff I don't think...honestly, I don't recall the protocol for sticks coming up on a face off anymore...

Couture needs to embellish less and he might get a call now and then. that said, this is a pretty atrocious job of officiating.

DC talk show fodder... Will the Caps buy out Orpik this summer?

I am typically strongly against buyouts, especially for a cap spending team. The Caps options are (not including trade):
Keep Orpik: $5.5M cap hit in 18-19
Buy-out Orpik: $2.5M hit 18-19, $1.5M hit 19-20

So they would end up with $3M extra space next year, but a roster spot to fill, and $1.5M dead space the following year. Ugh, I hate dead cap space...

A lot more here:

And, also:
Is Jaromir truly mature at the age of 34?

Guys are children all their lives… And I am unable to judge at this point whether Jaromir in particular will ever come to his senses, and starts taking things seriously. I can’t even imagine what he will do when he retires from playing hockey.

Maybe he will be wandering through life like people released from a prison.

Or like a child raised in an orphanage… I don’t know. He has always been patient in sports, but, for example, he would not have enough stamina to manage a firm. A person has to be tough for that kind of work, but he always excuses the others. He is not pushy enough, he would be constantly losing money, and so I hope he would be playing for a long time.

Take out the s in https, and don't include the time jump.

Start at 50.
