I had 1st overall and took Crosby. By the time I picked again (35th or whatever) my choice of Pens was Jokinen or Martin.
I ended up loading up on Kings. - canadianpenfan
crosby has a habit now of getting hit in the face with a puck when he plays the Isles. That said, I'd rather the Isles play the Pens with Crosby in the lineup so we can see how much further this team has to go, and how they play against the top players in the playoffs. Should be interesting even if it's a loss.

He certainly has bad luck when playing the Isles. But if he goes on to win the Conn Smythe and I didn't take him I would be kicking myself.
I'm excited for this series, I think it will be a good one. Although I may not have many friends left in this blog by the end.

I think its gonna be a great series... Im hoping the Isles pull the upset but I have a feeling its gonna be Pitt in 6... But I think Id be happy with that at the end of the day.

I don't think any of us will be going out of our way to take shots at Pittsburgh after the series. We know we're underdogs in a huge way. Plus you gave us a break from the dead horse, so we're all good.
The good ols days of the ban, IP switch, new email, return.
Yes.
Did anyone keep track on how long that actually took? I was in the middle of a post when I got banned so I don't know exactly when he did it.
It takes a while to get the proxy set up. But I own a HOSTING COMPANY and have about 5,000 IPs at my disposal. Email addresses all over the place and verified phones through Google Voice.
If they want to place "Chase Kencan" all day, I got a few more hours of work. - Kencan998
1) Stay out of the box. If the Isles are taking a bunch of penalties you're doomed.
2) Use you're speed. It's the 1 advantage the Isles have.
3) Get nasty. I really think a guy like Czikas makes a name for himself if you win. The Pens don't like being crosschecked and slashed after the whistle. If the ref lets you get away with it you have to take advantage like the Flyers did.
I am 1 Pens fan that didn't want this match up. I think the Isles can give them some trouble. - canadianpenfan
Watch out for Martin, I think he's going to be a key to this series if it goes anywhere? that's if Capuano lets him play?
You know what the problem is? The problem is that the poster hasn't been seasoned on the Sound Tigers blog enough. You bring up a guy to the big time that soon, and you just screw him up. Regardless of his level of writing proficiency or debate abilities, you need to pay your dues on the AHL blog. Otherwise, you end up like Nino, can't score on a hooker in a whorehouse, and just piss off everyone in the process. Clearly a problem with blog management. - Pete V
