If the Penguins could trade Letang for McD they would be so, so much better overnight.
- Johnny Wrath


Not to mention they'd save over $2M in cap space.

Is that the place with the cold toppings?

Also best Pizza around the Burgh I believe is Monte Cello's, its just fantastic.

- nbartley9

No....just no. I worked at the one in Wexford in highschool. Average at best. There is nothing even close to Lucianos--best by a mile.

Where is dbell? He will agree with me on this one for sure.

Edit: Desalles Pizza in homestead(on the way to Kennywood) gets a special nod--very good

Disagree, different needs; different teams. The Pens would benefit more from LETANG then they would with McD.

Plus LETANG is more physical than people give him credit for.


Everyone knows my hatred for Sutter much like everyone knows your hatred for LETANG.

Letang is fairly physical. But not nearly as physical as McD. It's not Shea Weber vs. Olli Maata, but it's noticeable (although Tavares will disagree). But really, as an overall player, McD is better than "Tanger."

If you think after all this time that the reason I think that the Pens need to trade Letang is that I simply hate him, we're not operating on a mutual level of respect.

They may have a 7 fields location but the original is in Allison Park near Duncan Manor. Thats the place to go. I threw an edit on my last post--Desalles in Homestead is very good also, but im not out that way....ever.

Yep, I know it sounds weird, but (frank) is it delicious. Been eating it my entire life... the thing I miss most since I've moved to Florida.

I agree McD is a more physical player.


The overall player thing I do not agree with, without doing more research I have to say its a wash at this point.

It is totally amazing, the first time I had it I was shocked.

So you were from Pittsburgh and relocated to FL? What part of the Burgh?

Ha no I totally know and understand your Tanger logic, I just don't agree with it.

I was just referring to the fact that its well known how we both feel about said players.

Back to back to back, that has to be good for something

Worked at which in Wexford? Monte Cellos? The only other Police Station Pizza is or was in Zelienople and I don't think its there. I'm tellin you, you've gotta at least take the trip to Ambridge to TRY it... order pepperoni, unmelted extra cheese... get there early because sometimes they'll sell out.

Praising Letang for skating back quick enough to recover his own turnover?

Yeah, I'm from Ambridge, Beaver County, went to school at Edinboro, moved down here after I graduated and scored a job with the Tampa Bay Lightning doing in-game presentation.

I worked at Montes. I havent even heard of Police Station Pizza. Im sure the recommendation is legit, but without an Italian name Ill pass. I mean, honestly, this is Pittsburgh---if you are serving pizza without an Italian name then you are doing it all wrong.

The first two teams to implement metrics into their scouting; The Blackhawks, the Kings.

I believe they have 4 Cups since these metrics have been around.

- Blackstrom2

The 3rd team to implement metrics in the past 4 years: Carolina. 0 cups in 4 years and to boot, the same guy to implement them there is now with us!

Nah, he was a good 2 for a while but he's very well placed as a Capital these days.
