Wasn't a fight. Rupp and Konopka pulled a punk move by trying to engage Riley Smith 2 on 1 and Jagr jumped in along with everyone. Jagr mostly got rag dolled by Rupp.

Chickenpoop move by both Rupp and Konopka though.

easy on Rupper

Found these two goals in Youtube. Gretzky's last game....Pittsburgh 2-1 in OT

Kovalev, Morozov, Lang

...and Jagr. The master of f*cking up everything (for Gretzky anyway)

How was Morozov's contract with the Penguins? Why did he leave to Russia?

Late to the party but I liked the Pens chances this year before these 3 trades and now I LOVE them! My reasoning is simple a goalie can win playoff series (MTL) and it seems like this happens towards the end of every season where Fleury goes on long winning streaks then goes colder in the playoffs. Vokoun was a great get and the biggest reason why I think Pens will win. If Fleury is off in the playoffs Bylsma doesn't just keep sending him out because he has a real option.

He went home because he realized he couldn't play Brodeur 82 times a season Actually he went home for the '94-'95 lockout and became a star there, so he stayed.

Question for the old timers here who remember 20 years ago...does anyone honestly hope the 17 game streak doesn't get broken? I love the current team and it's an amazing time to be a Pens fan again, but the '92-'93 team was the best Pens team ever and Mario coming back from Hodgkins to lead the team to that record makes me hope we fall short now.

Records were ment to be broken and if this team can break it and win a cup it's going to make for a compelling argument for one of the super elite teams

This is the hardest working team in the league and in many ways, Sid sets the pace. For anyone to insinuate Malkin is carrying Sid is insane. I don't get some of these Toronto fans that come in here to troll. They sound like 12 year olds.

And the thing is none of us here or anyone in the organization are saying anything about the cup being ours..no one is being cocky here its actually been other teams fans saying it.
- SayWhat...NoWay

Not true i was responding to a pens fan who was gloating about being the 2013 cup winner already.

I do like the pens chances and was just being a Richard to that Richard.

Chill!!!!

I thought I heard sometimes it takes time for the visa's to get straightened out etc. you think the NHL could get that done quick. Not like you really need him or the points.

Visa is done, he was cleared to come last night....

He was on a plane but it was delayed... I think he got in around 2am, but i doubt he had enough sleep and will be at pregame warmups... He might be there in the locker room but not ready to play, kinda like murray was...So tuesday will prob be his first day....

So is Iggy playing tonight? Heard something about being delayed due to Iggy having some issues crossing the boarder to work? Hope he's in today.

Game is at 1 PM I would personally be very surprised to see him play today.

Hasn't practiced with the team once, got in early off the plane, meeting with media 2 hours before the game. I just don't see it. Stranger things have happened, kinda like the trade itself.
