tonight i filled in for another team playing against a team i play for half the time...and beat them in a 15 round shootout giving up only 1 goal.

i feel bad yet giddy at the same time. it's confusing.

CBJ should have swept us by now. I am so disgusted in this entire team, coaching and management. A house leaguer can score on Fleury and again this might be the worse goaltending I have seen in the professional level. Crosby is absolutely been pathetic for 11 straight playoff games, Letang cannot play defense, Malkin is one dimensional, Neal is penalty prone. Congratulations NY Rangers you are the class of the pathetic metro division.

I kind of do too.

Putting myself in a position of a Pens fan...oh god....

My hand would be even more swollen than it is now. Probably would be broken, honestly.

Lecavalier is still a good player, and while he's not fast. He is not slow either.

I dont think Vinny is being placed with wingers that fit his style. While Simmonds is good... and Schenn is decent.... the 3 do not have chemistry together. I think we need to add a quality LW to the 2nd line with Vinny & Simmonds, someone with speed and puck control. It would make a world of difference.

I should have been more clear.

My college is Philadelphia College of Pharmacy. It's sits on Woodland Ave in West Philly.

My home is Lancaster, which I'll be retreating to in about a week. Not Lancaster City though. I'm from Lititz but no one knows where that is

I agree, that kind of player would compliment them better.

I'm from up in north east PA but my grandparents always had those things around when I was a kid. Love them. In fact, I should order some today. So good

eventually, i would just kind of get tired of the whole waiting game. i know its a process, but its been a pretty long time coming
- stayinthefnnet

Not really. We sucked for 4 years before trying to rebuild. You can't start with what the Oilers had in the summer of 2010 and expect to be good in a small handful of seasons. It sucks but I think we are 2 seasons away.
