Movie Thread

Watched the theory of everything last night... disappointed. Was this movie based on Jane's auto-biography? Because it seems to just end when they split. Overall I enjoyed the movie, but at the end it just ended. When the text came up at the end of the movie explaining where everyone is today was t...

Pens recall Taylor Chorney

Is there a reason why Harrington or Duomolin couldn't be recalled, like a waiver issue or something?
Salary for an emergency recall has to equal or be less than league minimum plus $100k. Chorney is literally the only guy that fits.

I really doubt that. He needs to be playing in wbs. Unless something prevents him from playing for them in the playoffs. I cant see him being considered for an nhl spot. Actually, if you read Dejan's comments on him, the playoffs seem to be exactly why they are bringing him over. From what I read, ...

Anyone seem much of him playing this season? No, but I remember early in the season he was pretty much a point per game player, went to the World Juniors where he sucked, and finished the season with 21 points in 41 games, but had 5 assists in 5 playoff games. So I guess take from that what you will.

Black Aces usually don't come around until WBS is eliminated from the playoffs, so I definitely think KK would be part of it. Practice with the big club and the only high end offensive talent in the system, no reason to send him packing.

El Generico

By and large, isn't "generic" hockey what wins Stanley Cups? Responsible defense play. Dumping the puck and wearing down defenseman. Pucks on net. Dirty, garbage goals. The Penguins have tried relying on their skill since 2009 and have won jack diggity. Maybe Johnston has them playing a system that ...

5928 I realized I've really disliked this season of Arrow. I have to agree with you, but I watched the first two seasons on Netflix in a month or so, so I wasn't sure if it was because I have to wait a week + between episodes. I did the same and I'm also not sure if its having the same effect on me...

After this recent break for Arrow and The Flash, I realized I've really disliked this season of Arrow. Hope the last episodes really pick up because this season pales in comparison to the first two.

UFA Forwards

1a. Winnik
1b. Comeau
1c. Downie
4. Lapierre
257. Adams
Surprised to see Adams so high.

I was, and remain, happy with the Goc for Lapierre trade, but he has been a bit underwhelming. I would like to see him regain some of his Lapierre-ness in the playoffs before I considered re-signing him.

So...who is "Joe D"?
I saw that last night. If you see anything, let me know.
Dokish has deleted his Twitter account. Whoever "Joe D" is (apparently at some point it was disclosed that he's a Penn State fan), showed up at Dokish's wife's place of work and tried to have her fired.

Would Ian Moran be before or after Steve McKenna?
Moran last played for the Pens in 02-03, McKenna 03-04.

Steve McKenna wins.

Don't think anyone has ever typed that before.

Bad news for Letang and the Pens. Hope he recovers and can get back in for the playoffs.

Who is likely to be called up? Harrington or Doumolin?
If its for the playoffs, I think Dumoulin would be the first callup.
