YEA! At least Rinaldo didn't need photoshop and make-up!

But he also didn't get paid $10 mil to take pics of himself

Smart. You sure your name isn't Paul Holmgrem.


I had nothing to back up Harry Z except he has some good speed and the counter rush by the PENS was killing us last game.

Z has plenty of speed. We will see what Laviolette does. I would be pretty surprised if he dressed Rinaldo after his antics last night.

Shelley is a total waste simply because if there is an injury during the game (which with the Flyers happens with regularity) you are essentially down to 10 forwards as Shelley has zero versatility.

That only makes Crosby a hooker, and not the one you call a penality for.

Sorry, but both Rinaldo's and Crosby's pics were creepy

I like Harry because of his speed as well.

Zac and Shelly shouldn't see the ice for the rest of the series. The refs created a monster they can't control without over calling the game, which is a disgrace in and of itself. However, it is what it is so why throw more gas into the fire by lining up these two guys?

He's not that close from what I have read, I don't think the Flyers would consider dressing him even if healthy.

I liked his game early on. Physical an brings energy. Not a bad fill in for rinaldo. Rather have jvr over all of them obviously

Didn't Sestito give Nathan Horton the concussion that ended his season?
I think that was his best game as a Flyer, he was running all over the Bs.

He played awesome that day. Very impressive. Not a bad 4th line player

From what I saw, with a little coaching he could be a little more then that.

How old was the fan?

Edit: Hasek, Jagr have much higher "hero" status than Petr, he was very understated and underrated.

But he won them the gold!

Probably late 20s, early 30s.

I agree. About to add a section on Rinaldo to main blog.

It's only 1 game & I'd prefer they sit Rinaldo for however long they continue to play

Yup. Stamkos with 98 GWGs. Yzerman jumping up and down like it's '96.
