    OT: The forgotten PENS

    I'm pretty sure I remember reading or seeing Lemieux regret the fact that he smoked so much and ate sloppy when he was younger. They didn't have the nutrition info they do now but he knew he wasn't doing himself any favors adding in his back and Hodgkins.

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    It's amazing to think that maybe one or two less turnovers or OT losses is the difference between last years 91 and this years 88,89,or 90. Just a few less pucks being fished out of our net after cross ice pass attempts gone awry in our own end. Plays that I would have been flipping out on if...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    This is the age old quandary of everyone wants to trade their poo for the other teams gold. You're 100% right. At some point you either sell extremely low with all kinds of sweeteners or hold your nose another year to see if you can catch lightning in a bottle. Unfortunately our main guys are...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    Classic !! They soff. I wouldn't mind seeing some of this from Sullivan occasionally instead of all the usual post game loss drivel.

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    I had an interesting bathroom conversation with Therrien and Shero when the Pens practiced at Jay's Sportsbar re Angelo Esposito since I don't know the meaning of the word "shy". The Pens had just drafted Esposito after he fell like a rock in the draft. So I asked Shero,Ray,can Esposito play...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    I will never understand the thought process of having your top 2 RD that will probably average 40-50 minutes a night knowing they can turn into human turnover machines at any time. That may have worked 10-15 years ago when the core had the ability to run and gun to offset it. This will be an...

    Maybe I'm mistaken but wasn't there high hopes for this bullpen this year ? I'll reserve judgement on why Jones was pulled but anything less than an injury is bull. 59 pitches in 5 innings ?

    Yep. Leading run scoring on a balk no less.

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    We played like a bunch of fancy pants dancers against the Bruins and Washington plays them like they are Habs of 76-77.

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    Bruins with 11 shots on goal through 2.5 periods. That's the kind of defensive effort we needed against Boston

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    I'm not following the logic. They'll pony up multiple draft picks for Jarry when Ned is a free agent.... ? (And we dont know who else will be on the block over the off season) Is Jarry any better than Ned period right now,let alone worth giving up picks when not necessary ? How far has Jarry...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    Getting out of the car I'm pretty sure I heard Tyler Kennedy on The Fan say something to the effect of 'the Pens can get many picks for Jarry". Huh? I may have heard wrong and I should have stayed in the car to see if he received any push back or explained that one if I heard him right. If...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    Yep. When you have a 4 goal lead with <4 minutes left in the 2nd period no professional should need to be told red line then dump,we obviously dont need any more offense to win. And anyone who makes plainly stupid plays (ie Karlsson or anyone else) should have their azz plastered to the bench a...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    Looks like it was done once in 1987. Michel Bergeron according to The Google Machine. I had a post all ready to go about 2 hours b4 the trade about how the fans of the player being traded sometimes have a player valued higher than opposing GMs. Factor in they haven't seen Guentzel with a stick...

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    Lol. I think the Boston FSG guys are going to have to be the one ownership group in this town that fires a head coach with money still on the books. The only thing he possibly has going for him is the Bostonian brotherhood at this point.

    OT: The forgotten PENS

    The last time I spent the time sitting in front of a TV watching a complete game I couldn't even tell you. The games that look interesting (wins) I stream the 10 minute highlights to my TV.
