Penguins: November 2018

Anyone else notice quite a few empty seats at PPG last night? Sure it was a Monday but without doubt some of the petals are falling from this rose in fans eyes...look like a sPitt game at Heinz in there soon...
Actually, idea....I see the Blojax are in town Sat eve, I'll be fairly close by and tix should take a nosedive on stubhub. Anyone wanna go with me ?!? :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Think of the possibilities here guys...we could all bet our mortgages on Torts Twerps and we are livin the high life! Multi millionaires all of us! We will NEVER find a more sure shot bet EVER! We could even buy the team on Sunday and re-tool it ourselves...happy times are here again!!!

I'm also ready to see what this "fanbase" will do when they sink... I may actually want to go to a game again.

Ugh....you may be right...I hold out hope for a miracle still...of course that miracle would demand holding Murray in the pocket in some capacity. Maybe even sack him a few times. Ah dare to dream...

reminds me of my grandmothers favorite saying... "you can wish in one hand..."

How much further does it spiral till coach gets the axe boys? Can't jettison half the team especially in today's day and age...usually it's the kneejerk reaction, but we are talking about a recent 2x Cup winner with Sully. That buys some time but how much? Lose the next one or two and the seat is getting hot rather than warm imo...GMJR likely has another trade trigger to pull yet, however he's at a point of significant weakness now...

What's it say about this core group of players that the org has to keep firing coaches to motivate them?

Not sure other than we know there are a few primadonna's. However the core ain't moving...don't get me wrong, I happen to really like Sully as a coach and motivator (likely cause he doesn't come off as some self righteous dick like many others), but clock is ticking at a quicker pace now...

those four or five pricks need broken up over the way they treat coaches.

Cmon...you KNOW this happens everywhere. Those four or five also brought 2 cups...3 of em 3 cups...what ya think those three pricks in Chitown doin right now? Same! And they ain't broken up... Sully was a master at getting them to buy in...is he still?

Edit: and who/what we gettin for Geno or Letang? At that price point? These are the only two they'd consider dealing of them imo...GMJR ' oh Hi! I've got the aging 10 million dollar man for ya! What ya got?'.....CLICK...HELLO? HELLO?????

obviously they are not responding to sullivan the way they once were. those 4 or 5 guys should have delivered 4 or 5 cups by now.

the guys in chicago played for quenville for a long, long time.

I can't tell you boys how happy I am to get a little break here and have time to celebrate with friends and e friends, especially after that period.

Just deep fried a bunch of wings for my boys in the turkey fryar and I got to get the smoker running at ten for the turkey...

probably a drunken game of ball hockey later unless we decide this is the year we are too old. the snowy weather here may prove too tempting.

Too old my ass. You better be rocking that shit.
 
they are all out there right now having a "cigarette" so I'm sure it's being discussed/dragging the shit out of my shed...
Damn right. Summon the inner college age in you.

Which hotel do you recommend I stay in when I take my boy in March for the Blues game?

To be honest buddy, I don't go into the city much...

I know there is a hotel that's attached the arena...

or it depends on what you want. Staying at station square is always cool.

I’m looking for ease with him. I’ll have to check out the hotel that’s attached. If I didn’t have the kid with me, I would be a station.

I'm in Greensburg Pa, which is westmoreland county about 30 miles southeast of pittsburgh... 60 miles from motown. just had a little snow come through, didn't leave any on the ground but we have had flurries like that on and off all day and supposed to later.
