    SCF Game 1 GDT: Red Wings 4, Penguins 0

    Tough call...GR is a warrior...and a folk hero here in Pittsburgh...alot of fans arent happy....Hall is big on the PK...and a good face off guy who has been very very solid for us.... Coach Therrian has made all the right moves with this young club..I wont start questioning him now

    Roberts steams after being told he won't play Game 1

    Dispelling some myths: the Pittsburgh Penguins

    TSN: "Lidstrom Has a Shot at Hockey History"

    LOL...when I read this I was like WTF??...LOL...then I checked....WOW That would be historic...I just assumed with Euros playing such big roles for so long now that this must have already happened

    Dispelling some myths: the Pittsburgh Penguins

    Any Pens fan leaning on that is as wrong as any Wings fan leaning on the fact that we played weak teams..... But lets be real...yeah..we beat Ottawa (big whup)...Rags did have a top 5 defense...and the Flyers were hurt....but you guys beat the Preds and Avs (2 more big whups)...and a Dallas team that was supposed to lose to Anaheim and San Jose...all that being said....SO WHAT???? This whole argument is stupid....all that matters is this series...and Im sorry...there is NO WAY to handicap it Thats what makes it so great!!! PLEASE....drop the puck

    When do the Penguins implode?

    They will do a deal with Malkin this summer...but his big money wont kick in until 09-10 (like Sids was worked)...remember..Malkin is under contract next year... Will we keep everyone?...of course not...but Sid, Geno, Fleury, and Staal will go nowhere... Theres hope Malone will stay...but as much as I love him...someone will overpay..he had 27 goals skating with Malkin....hes a 20 goal guy with an average=above average center...but someone (Minnesota) will throw 5 mill at him Lotsa talk about moving either Gonchar or Whitney to save money, being we have Gologoski ready to go from Wilkes Barre (another offensive defenseman) Laraque and Ruutu can be resigned at or near their current salaries...It will be interesting to see what offers Orpik gets Hard to really say...we have cap room...but not for long....

    Honest Question for Pitt fans

    thats a question that alot of people are asking...but it really worked well..it was quite a sight.... I remember Winnipeg doing it...I always liked it...its a matter of white being a contrast color and sticking out...Flyer fans did orange...which was cool....but the white stands out better

    Penguins vs Red Wings in the media coverage war

    "Mr. Crosby...we would like to give you 2 million dollars to do a commercial...it will take you one day..." "Aw..geez...no thanks" I'm sure you would be turning that down....Crosby took a lower salary BECAUSE he can make big bucks in endorsements...when Malkin gets 10 million/year (yes..thats more than Sid)...Sid will just smile...because that was his plan.

    Penguins vs Red Wings in the media coverage war

    As a fan of a team that cannot sell out its own arena...you lose all credibility by saying this...congrats...you are now the lowest IQ poster I have seen in this community. Yeah...I'm damn proud...perhaps you should be proud of your team, as opposed to bitter over the success of another. Damn...you're small

    Penguins vs Red Wings in the media coverage war

    Look...the Pens players...all they wanna do is play hockey....they dont solicite this coverage...they arent media whores....and yes...that includes Sid... Hate the media....I too believe its overblown....but dont hate the team...its not their fault

    Penguins vs Red Wings in the media coverage war
