jollymania

he is getting overpaid, even pens fans will tell you that

he is just riding on the success of his other brothers, hes a solid depth player nothing more, eric is the only ture superstar inthe family and mark is a decent lower end top 4 dman

staal is ultra overrated, he's not that good

use megaupload, you can use any size

monster

he embellished but at the same time it was blatant and probably hurt like a *****

it was liek the richards hit but 1000xs not as hard

lol, i only agreed to a percentage of your statement and just because i dont view it as classless doesnt mean i view it as grit, if a wings player did it i would view it as my team melting down, i figured i would ignore your trolling remarks and respond to the rational things you had to say, this is the last time i will quote your unwaivering hubris or your doggerel rants

i never protected my goalie unless there was imminent danger, all the goalies i've played with would have gladly taken a hit to get on a pp, they were pretty odd guys though so you had to let them pay once in awhile, we got to the state finals so obviously whatever our team did to ignore their social shortcomings worked, i dont think the wings overprotect osgood and thats the way it should be although they do let him out to dry and force him to dive all over the place every once in awhile, if other teams protected their goalie like the wings protected ozzy youd see an unbelievable amount of diving form goaltenders

there was nothing classless about it at all, if a goalie is going to be dumb enough to not shrug it off and take the pp then he would be allowing hossa's dumb move to actually be worth it, and its only dumb because its clearly a penalty, and the reason why is if you check a goalie hard enough yo will injure him and now the team has to rely on a back up, since garon is the back up he should have just shrugged it off since it was a tiny hit

that was definitely a penalty it wasn't cheap or classless either, nor was it gritty, nothing but garon's goalie ego being torn and hossa paying the price for an unneeded play that is always gonna land you in the box

it is neither classless nor gritty, i think its just a tradition stemming from when goalies had way less padding, if a goalie gets slashed or accidentally hit behind the play there should be no retaliation but when your goalie has skates near his throat and players diving into him intentionally then you should have some form of physicality to counter it, because there is only one goalie you cant replace him if he goes down. If he is checked like hossa did last night, if all it is is a little bump like that even though hossa had intent that deserves a penalty, no more, if you really get hurt form that you need to try a different sport, goalies are just weird fellows and maybe one goalie comes around and flips the goaltending culture, bet we can only wish

do you really think your that awesome because you think you "understand it" which you probably do you just got a different perception and because you are siding with a penguins troll that if you really think about it doesnt belong here?

the franzen incident/maltby touching crosby's glove, crosby's "slash"(as he put it a "two hander") on maltby are just humorous incidents imo if that happened to me i would just laugh it off and hit someone or make a good play next shift, they have nothing to do with grit or class, just humorous incidents that should be shaken off, grit and class, that is another story

just so you know nobody here cares, go reminisce in the pens cup winning years in the PENS forum

he had 8 hits, 1 more than the hit beast helm, that is impressive for a guy with a goal scoring label

or that goal i think in game 2 where crosby just conveniently pranced around the net while z who was untouched scored.

ot osgod but do you know the time when they showed bettman crying? i want to post the vid of it on yt

every arena chants crosby sucks, but every arena does not boo a player who played 2 seconds for them and left to join a proven winner becasue he was a FA

i know exactly what is going on here, i wasnt commenting on his point, rather his hostility towards wings fans

he has some tricky wording in there, i think he's trying to bait wings fans into agreement with him unknowingly, some of what he says has merit but in the end he is jsut a frustrated pens fan trying to defend crosby's weak attempt at captaincy and cooke and talbot's apparent mental disorders among other things that his team has done wrong and the wings have done right up to this point

i can just give me the rest of the day

this dude is the compete opposite of therrien, he shows as much if not more class then babcock he is a coach you can appreciate

wow proves my point you are a self righteous *******, but most people could get that drift after reading your stupid post and the subsequent posts seriously your a pens fan on the wings board if you are going to post stuff like this dont jsut whine and react to every post that criticizes you
