1) i wont defend it cuz im not a part of it but it should be noted a penguins fan started that discussion...
2) as pointed out by a few of your fellow penguins fan, your penguins hat is strapped on so tight, i wouldnt expect you to be a part of this "put our allegiance aside" discussion.

No, he just sits in the corner and tells everyone whats appropriate conversation while offering little to nothing himself. We all know one of those, don't we?

Iginla isn't at the morning skate, so don't read too much into it.

Thanks, I missed the morning skate attendance.

Crosby, Kunitz, Letang and Malkin join Neal on top power play.

Not sure how I feel about removing the Iginla shot from the right circle. We tend to become a little too predictable without that threat (i.e. left-side dependant). Granted, it may not make a major difference either way.

Iginla is not taking the morning skate. Besides, it's good for Neal to get a few extra reps after missing time.

A 80% Sidney Crosby has proven to be as effective than 95% of the players in this league. No sense laughing. I laugh at the ones that say they wouldn't want Crosby on their team; therefore they wouldn't give up a seventh round pick to get him. That, is laughable. Again, Islander fans are getting close to being the most retarded fan bases in the league based on their comments.

Everyone is one hit away from their careers being ended - even Johnny Boy.

you cant even acknowledge a FACT that there are healthier players than crosby, thats laughable

EDIT: oh, and i dont think you know the meaning of the word "proven"

You know what's even more retarded? You taking two posters(myself inc I'm guessing) on hockeybuzz of all places and labeling an entire fanbase as retarded bcs you don't agree with them. Keep on laughing.

Question for you. Would you make the trade that Tavares would have injury problems occasionaly, but average 1.5 points per game for the rest of his career?

alot of proven guys still finished behind Crosby this year despite Sid missing one fourth of the season in games. There are healthier players. That doesn't mean they are better. Not hard to figure it out champ.

i was talking just health...not talent...i made that clear in 3 posts...but again, dead set on being right, it must alter your reading comprehension.

Pens started doing better a little too late in the period. To me it looked like Cooke ran through visnovsky (sp) because he was in the lane of the puck, but he still could of picked his head up and made an attempt to get around him
