You read it here first- Hainsey is going to score a big goal, game tying or winning, in that first round series with the BJ's.

Does Sid still take the time to sign for fans at practice? He did in 2007 from his car but a lot can change in 10 years.

Leading up to the game, it's now going to be in the high 60s today and tomorrow, and low to mid 70s Thursday and Friday. And as Viva la Ben noted, rain all day Saturday.

The ice is going to be slush.

Can't they tarp the rink until the rain is done like an infield on a baseball field?

Lemieux, Jagr, Crosby, and Malkin have combined for 4,624 points in 3,175 games.

Speaking of Jagr... He and the Big Guy (66) are signing through TSE and Reich PM next month. It's a whopping $275 to mail in an 8x10 or puck for dual autographs.

If you had told me Crosby would only get 1 point in 3 games against Chad Johnson, Calvin Pickard, and Mike Smith (not that he's that bad, but c'mon it's the Coyotes)... I would have called you names.

Framed tickets, Last @ the Igloo and First @ CEC seasons...

Here's some hockey randomness... Family and I are in Orlando on a Disney trip. Had our Saturday plans wrapped up by 3 pm so I Ubered to the Orlando Solar Bears/Florida Everblades game. Former Nailers and Baby Pen Denver Manderson signed a puck for me during the intermission. I brought up seeing him...

There are some interesting people who attend hockey games in Florida.

Oh so true.

Saw Cracked did a "Famous People you didn't realize died in 2016" article, so for shits and giggles, decided to see how many of them were posted in this thread. Not Posted (21): David Margulies Monte Irvin Les Waas Afeni Shakur Bill Backer Jane Little Roscoe Brown Jr Noel Neill Tim LaHaye Kenny Bak...

In addition to a Stanley Cup ring keychain, the Pens sent a DVD of the documentary as this years STH Christmas gift. This team gets it. The keychain is too nice to use as a keychain. I'm putting it by my mini Stanley Cup. On a side note, I wonder how many people got the ring stuck on their finger t...

Heads up for anyone who enjoys invading Nationwide Arena- Jackets are doing a holiday pack where you can get both Pens games in C-bus on the end the Pens shoot twice for $24.50 a ticket. Buying 2 to each game would be just south of $100. Great bargain. And they give you some dumb Jackets shirt with ...

I'm comfortably in 1st (200 points more than second place team, 300 more than 3rd place) and snagged Sammy Watkins off waivers in what hopefully can be a big couple of weeks for him. I wanna plan the parade route but fantasy football is a mysterious creature.

The Rorabaugh situation was a strange one at DK. As soon as he was done with the PG, they were beating down the doors on social media to get him aboard. Kovacevic admits it isn't going to happen then weeks later it does. Seth either never fit in there or shouldn't have gone to begin with because his...

How was Joe Manganiello as narrator? As someone who grew up watching "One From the Heart" and "Against the Odds" on a near continuous loop, the enduring voice of Earl Mann is hard to live up to. Joe nailed it. The cadence and tone of the narration was similar to Liev Schreiber's work for The Road t...

How was the pre Mario coverage? And I hear what you're saying, but heavy on Steigerwald is...*sigh* The Pre-Mario Penguins get probably between 30-45 minutes of the documentary. A great story involving Art Rooney's help in landing an expansion team over Buffalo. Touch in detail on Michel Briere, Th...

Just back from the STH Premiere. The team really did an outstanding job on this. It's well worth your 3 hours and then more when you watch it again. If you took someone who didn't know what hockey or the Pittsburgh Penguins were and showed them this film- they'd walk away a fan. So many great storie...

Anybody purchase Stadium Series presale today? I got 2 in Sect 534. I did from our STH group (I drafted this game). I actually selected something in the 500's because from there I can actually see all the ice. I heard stories that the view kind of sucks down low. Yeah, the 500's are the way to go. ...

Did you get Crosby and Malkin yet?

Not yet. Within the month.

For those at the game on Tuesday, is there still a noticeable amount of people that boo Jagr?

Nope. It's all but gone. I noticed a barely audible boo from Jagr's first two touches of the puck in the first period.

66 to complete the Dynamic Duo. Crosby & Malkin next.

RB2 start: Melvin Gordon against Denver or Christine Michael against Atlanta?
