That's a personal decision, haha. Two days early, maybe?

"You're not gonna get me to bite on it because I think it's bullpoop," according to reporter Louis Jean.


What does this even mean? He thinks it's bull that he's coming back or that he was asked about him coming back?

Ix-nay on the ealthy-hay eam-tay discussion. Let's not jinx it.


I don't think this team has a shot until Johnson gets healthy. We'll need a legit #2 goalie if we hope to make a deep playoff run...

The Penguins have to jump on the Ranger, especially if they are missing their heart in Callahan, a solid blueliner in Del Zotto and the King.

Kind of like the Bruins game, get after them early and don't get caught up in the return of Crosby hoopla.

He never seems to want to talk about anything good or bad that the opposing team does... plus he hates the media, so I doubt if it means anything in regards to Crosby.

should be a good game, rangers vs the penguins and the offficials, cant wait

God bless and good luck. Sid is a commodity for the entire NHL to enjoy. I hope he's back for good this time!

funny part is, when Sid is in the line up, Dubit*hski usually does all the crying to the media after the game.

Funny how that has worked
