How is Sundqvist's team doing in the playoffs? I'd like to see him come to North America for the playoffs as well. Sundqvist has 5 points and a plus-5 in 9 games, playing top six minutes and special teams time. His team, Skelleftea, swept their first round series vs. Brynas, stomped Linkping in 5.....

How is Sundqvist's team doing in the playoffs? I'd like to see him come to North America for the playoffs as well.

I wasn't a fan of sending Kapanen and Sundqvist back to Europe (especially Sundqvist since a year burns off his ELC anyways), but calling up Kapanen, who probably isn't ready for the NHL in the first place, to help the Penguins bow out in the first round in 5 games instead of 4 seems like a waste. W...

yessssssssss. Now extend Walker, and this team is built for a few more years.

Never gonna happen.

Does this Harrison deal essentially mean bye-bye Pedro?

I think bye-bye Pedro was inevitable since the day he was drafted.

The Pirates today announced a four-year, $27.3 million contract extension with third baseman Josh Harrison that includes club options for the 2019 and ’20 seasons. Harrison receives a $1 million signing bonus, according to two sources. He will earn the $2.8 million salary in 2015 that he and the Pir...

I don't know much about the business side of hockey... if the team is sold, is there a chance of them moving?

No. The team has a 30 year lease at the Consol once the arena was built.

So they'll be moved after the 30 year lease is up?

I read DK's article from the Pens game yesterday (for whatever reason, I didn't get blocked by the paywall). While he is one of the best writers in this city (which is like saying he is the skinniest kid at fat camp), I can't believe people pay for his stuff. More often than not, his writing comes ...

That police shooting is basically an execution. And I'm surprised to see multiple opinions already issued on North Charleston. Thought I would be the only one with the "pleasure" of living there. One of my recruiter's "selling points" she used for the nuclear power program was that we'd get statione...

Crosby without question. Sid has definitely had some odd, bad luck injuries during his career, but Malkin is almost 30 and still looks like he needs a UN care package. He takes a lot of wear and tear and I can definitely see him wearing down in his mid-30's. The whole "giving up the best player in t...

Bunch of losers.

Do people still blame coaching? The same guy coached the first ten minutes as the last 50. But that's still a problem. He doesn't adjast ever. I thought that was Bylsma? My issue with Johnston is, he never seems to lay into the team. They need their asses kicked every once in a while. How much time...

I even bought that stupid Pens-vision so I could watch more games. What is this Pens-vision that you speak of? I can't remember exactly when it started and ended, but it didn't last long. I think it was in the late 70's or early 80's. Back in the day, all Pen's games were not televised and the Pens...

I see it like this: On June 9, 2009 the Penguins went into the third period of game seven leading 2-0 thanks to two Max Talbot goals and would be playing the rest of the game without Sidney Crosby except one shift. The collective fan base said "God, please let the Penguins win this." Unfortunately, ...

David Lynch just pulled out of the Showtime continuation of Twin Peaks. Yikes. He had already written all nine episodes, so will be interesting to see what happens. I think it's a ploy to get the budget he wants. Maybe he's going to let the internet do it's thing and maybe Showtime caves and gives ...

On Broadway I've seen Chicago and Phantom of the Opera. Thought both were excellent. My wife and I went to see Pittsburgh Musical Theater's production of Les Miserables last year and the Byham and thought they did a really good job.

I don't know what the hive mind thought, but I quite enjoyed "Interstellar."

I loved it. Only problem I had with the movie is Michael Caine is damn near impossible to understand at times.

Saw the ending for Fast & Furious 7 posted on YouTube. Tough to watch, but was pretty much perfect.

July 2009.

So, do we buy R****'s reporting that the Pens will be in financial straights if they do not make the playoffs?

Wha?

I'm sure it's sensational nonsense from Rossi, but since the franchise resurgence their financial operating model assumes two playoff series.

A lot of people will save a lot of money.

Cole's been pretty good. Is he signed for next year?

RFA I believe.

As soon as Kentucky got the lead they went to a Jamie Dixon offense and they're gonna lose the game because of it.

Dammmn that was a violent collision with the boards.

Nice middle finger from Lovejoy.

Scuderi is useless.
