Pens -- FEB 2018

Speaking of Defensive effort and since @Irwineer2 is sitting this one out :wink:, I haven't seen anything too egregious out of Tanger tonight, which quite frankly does shock me a bit of late. I have likely jinxed us something fierce sorry...and somebody will provide me with video evidence of his misgivings tomorrow lol...

lol you got me. I could never intentionally miss a pens game. I did however not watch the pregame and currently have it muted while doing work.

need the pp to get the dagger here. and to pad some stats...

those dbag bolt fans on the main board talked a lot of crap about stamkos and kucherov running away with the scoring lead.

since we had the fluery love fest last night, I need to balance myself out here a bit.

anyone remember when a 40 year old thomas vokoun had to be the guy in the playoffs because we couldn't trust fluery? pepparidge farm remembers.
 
Where are @Euell , @COOL MAN , and @Original Mountaineer1 ? We got a big 3rd comin up here!!! Lets f'n go!!!!

I have been hanging around. Enjoying the effort level minus the Jersey game. Really impressed with 3 and 6 on the backside the last 3 weeks. Maatta looks like he did before his cancer. Of course Geno and Phil are smoking hot, Sid to a slightly lesser degree. If Letang could somehow find that switch I'd be really happy and the Pens would surge. Still a little concerned by Murray.

As far as the MAF love fest, I'd have to say it was cool and he ended his Pens career on a high note, but I can't help but think he cost them at least 1 cup with his playoff chokes.
 
Do you think the head/neck injuries have taken away his edge or do you think he is in a rut?
I think they have...he's simply been hit too many times...I think my head would be about mush right now were I hit that often....well, some would argue it is lol. In saying that (and I hate doing this cause it's often what guys like Grapes and Kypreos often mention, yuk) he has often in the past seemed to put himself in a spot to be injured. He turns his back to the oncoming play an awful lot through his career imo...

Did you see that nasty angle shot by McDaniel the other night. That was sick
 
Well that was a helluva few weeks...anyway, who cares about that, we're back...happily.
Let's hope they can take a bite outta these Knights tomorrow night...
Pics from this years Lake 'Scugog' Pond hockey tourney. Your Mountaineers were 2 and 1, just missing out on the quarter finals based on goal differential. I'm not ashamed, keeping up with a few of these teams filled with 20 someodd year olds when you are down your 6th man is taxing to say the least! Winning record and did the colors proud....good enough for me. I will now go nurse my cracked ribs from the asshat who laid me out in the 'non contact' pond hockey game...puck fired into their bench from yours truly 2 minutes later sent the message adequately imo...
