i was thinking about this this morning while watching the NHL network (tappen etc) continue to spend the whole show talking about how the blackhawks are the greatest team ever and i'm thinking - emery 10-0, carbomb with the winner with :50 seconds left, sharp, kane, the cup....and then they moved on to blow jeff carter and how great he's been for the kings this year....and i just go so (frank)ing mad. there aren't enough words.

you left out JVR...

i have a strange feeling tonight's game will have a different tone.
- hammarby31

I'm not sure what to expect. There's something about the Pens that gets these guys pumped, and let's face it, the Pens defense is as bad as ours and their goalies aren't exactly Patrick Roy.

I don't expect the Flyers to show enough discipline to cruise to a 5-1 win or anything, I expect another 6-5 poopshow where it's like 1985

i did. but trust me, he entered my mind too.

You might be asking for too much, but who knows? The only consistency this team has shown is to be consistently inconsistent.

thats a constant

It's not a feeling. I would call it: Being reasonable

i agree with everything, but i just think we see a more reserved/tight game for some reason - just a gut feeling.

as long as they get 2 points out of this, preferably in regulation, the game could be an indoor lacrosse score for all i care. i'm above style right now, i just want the points.

To be honest its because the Penguins thread is like 5 days old.

Unfortunately, most of your "humor" is older than that. If you must troll, at least try to entertain. If you don't manage to entertain, it's pointless.

Posting pictures of Crosby and taunting with 1975 is the kind of poop that a retarded 5 year old would do. We usually get a better class of troll here. You're just not up to our usual standards, sorry.

We expect Led Zeppelin. You're like Extreme or Winger.

Ultimately I want the two points. But I want to see them play better overall. If we have another sloppy game, where there's a million mistakes and undisciplined play, the root issues won't be solved.

I think they forgot to put "at sucking Richards" on that pic

I'd like to think that the Rangers game may have gotten these guys to wake the hell up, but I won't be holding my breath.

Smart, clean dump-ins on line changes, no trying to force passes through 2 or 3 guys... *sigh*
- tangent_man

Good luck hoping for any dump ins at all tonight. I expect more nonsense

not with those teeth, has to be a good dentist in Pittsburgh?

Making two predictions, the good and the bad.

First the good: Flyers 3-1 Penguins

Goals: Hartnell (Giroux, Voracek), Gagne (L. Schenn, Talbot), Kunitz PP (Malkin, Crosby), Giroux PP (Timonen, Voracek)

The bad: Penguins 7-3 Flyers

Goals: Dupuis (Kunitz, Crosby), Neal PP (Crosby, Malkin), Malkin PP (Letang, Crosby), Simmonds PP (Timonen, Voracek), Kennedy (unassisted), Crosby PP (Malkin, Letang), Couturier (Talbot, Gervais), Crosby (Dupuis, Cooke), Martin (Orpik, Sutter), Briere (Coburn).

That defense frightens me with Grossmann out.
- NickTheKid87

That's what worries me the most. If he's in we can win it. A rusty foster and were gonna have to score 8 goals.

I admire your effort. But the lack of creativity is really disappointing.

For somebody with a Groucho Marx avatar, you really do him a disservice. You should replace him with Dane Cook or maybe Carlos Mencia, given your complete lack of originality

Oh no, he mentioned 1975!!! He's a clever and funny troll!!!

I have a 6 year old that is better at trolling than you.

One thing I just thought of, you're a Van Halen fan right? It must have killed u during that short period in the late 90s when the lead singer from extreme fronted the band? Dear god. Dark days.

I only wish you could live up to him. You're not even Chico...at best you might be Zeppo, or maybe a cousin.

He feels sorry for those who are mentally challenged. The sheer lack of any creativity shows, that despite the planning that went into the trolling attempt, the subject is definitely a candidate for several programs designed to help him lead a normal and enriching life.

The sad fact is he may simply never find love to help lift him from the Rainman like state of recognition of humor and inability to entertain others with his trolling. Even other Pens fans have mentioned his inability to find an entertaining joke with two hands and a flashlight. The condition that leads one to troll for the enjoyment of a solitary audience shows a serious issue with appearance, as one who usually seeks attention does so with the aim of entertaining a group, such as Ripped Fuel, who trolls for the enjoyment of all.

It would be unsurprising if the subject was found lacking in other ways. We've touched on the lack of proper mental faculties and that he likely looks something like the character "Sloth" from the movie "The Goonies". He is also likely challenged in other genetic ways, such as having the sexual anatomy of a waterbug.

Has someone told you that you are wonderful today? I'll let you beat down any trolls in the future and just hide behind you.

That never happened. It was a dream. One day Eddie woke up and David Lee Roth was in the shower and it was all just a bad dream.

Jesus, that was a terrible album. Cherone sounded like Sammy Hagar with a head cold. He didn't even sing all the songs live.
