Minor League Hockey Thread
The Wheeling Nailers are in the Kelly Cup Final for the first time since 1993. Games 3-5 are in Wheeling on with games 4 and 5 on Friday & Saturday (June 3rd & 4th). I really want to make it to one but I'll be out of town. Trying to make it for Game 5. IMO, if they can beat Vitek Vanecek, they can ...

Last man standing vs Kevin Owens at the Royal Rumble.No surprise that the Ambrose/Jericho match is horrible. When was the last time Ambrose had a good match?

The 2016 World Cup of Hockey
Trying to get tix as we speak - link in email didn't work, event doesn't exist on Ticketmaster......... So now the event exists but the offer code for the pre-sale doesn't work. I ended up having to go extra old school and calling the Pens for tickets. They said they hadn't heard of any issues. :ro...

Does anyone remember- did the 03/04 Pens have a home/away alternate captaincy assignments? More to the point, Dick Tarnstrom can be seen wearing an 'A' on the black jersey but not on the white in photos. The official roster sheets didn't start identifying Cs and As until the middle of the 2005-2006...

WBS Playoffs
Oh where WBS could have gone had not half their team been called up to the big show... Suffice to say it's WBS in the ECF, not Pittsburgh. I'm not going to claim to be an expert on the Baby Pens either as I only attended 1 of their games this year. However, I think they can do a lot better than Don...

Lots of good seats available. Not sure the time to pre-sale them to Pens STH's was in the midst of the ECF. But I'll buy 2 because McDavid.

I'd tell you how to sync the radio to the TV broadcast, but I'm just gonna finesse on by.

The Pens puzzler gimmick for Game 5 vs NYR was "Name the only 2 players to wear No. 81 for the Pens." The girl playing was completely clueless but it was fun watching Pomp's kid try to not hand her the answer and then shout "He won a Cup in 2009!" But yeah, not a fan of hers or the Pens radio host....

Greatest Sports Moment You've Attended
The game the Pens lost the Cup to Detroit. First winter classic in Buffalo. Mario's final regular season home game in 97 (vs Boston) Mario's final game before announcing the heart issue and retiring. Francisco Cordova/Ricardo Rincon no-hitter vs Houston I guess those the most historic of the games I...

Osweiler either doesn't wanna be the guy who follows Manning in Denver or is mad he lost his starting job at the end of the year. Regardless, doubt Houston goes well for him.

Trade Deadline 2016
The Hockey Central Show on NHL Network touched on what the Oilers will do with McLellan's comments after last nights loss in mind. They don't have to blow it up and trade a ton of guys on Monday because Chiarelli and McLellan are set. They're not going anywhere for presumably 5 years so they can aff...

Trade Deadline 2016
Can Matthews be much worse than Yakupov? Taylor Hall is decent but certainly isn't better than Seguin for comparisons sake. Nugent-Hopkins is likely their Jordan Staal in that he won't leapfrog McDavid & Draisaitl on the depth chart. Mostly I look at the Oilers from a Chiarelli perspective- they're ...

Edmonton needs to go all-in on finishing 30th IMO. I'd make it known every player not named Connor McDavid is available and hope to beat out TOR in the lotto. From there just build around McDavid & Matthews.

My little guy lost his first two teeth this month. For the first one, he said he expected the tooth fairy to leave him shiny coins and a card. So I made him the card, basically thanking him for the tooth and reminding him to keep brushing twice a day. Last night, he again expected coins and a card. ...

*HHH in the Rumble was like a boss at the end of a video game. He was basically untouchable, made no bones about it that he wasn't gonna be eliminated. *Jericho does either need a shirt or to stop wrestling and focus on his music/podcast. My preference is the latter. *I recall at one point Kofi King...

Speaking of DC freaking out over snow: Took a Greyhound with 2 friends (we were young/dumb) in Feb '06 to a Pens/Caps game. Bus was scheduled to leave for PIT at midnight.

In WWE's defense, the conference title games should be over by the time the Rumble ppv starts. But isn't the scheduling of a ppv rendered moot by the fact most people will watch it on the network and don't necessarily need to tune in live?

Is there any reason to think the Royal Rumble won't be Reigns breaking his own Elimination record and the cut-away shot of the show being an angry HHH/Steph Mac?
