Greetings from Pittsburgh

[Coffey77 0]

Hello Red Wings fans, you can probably guess that I am a Penguins supporter. Looking ahead to the finals, I decided to make an account on this board so I can get some of your thoughts during the SCF. Though neither conference finals are over, our series looks pretty much over. And judging from the way the Red Wings played Game 4, it looks like you will close this series out on Wednesday. Hopefully the Pens learned from the beating you gave us last year.

Some things you should know about me....

-I am a Pens fan (Obviously)

-I come here to talk hockey...not to trash talk

-I will try to be as least-biased as I can

-I actually respect your organization, unlike Washington or Philly

Here's hoping we can get along during the next couple weeks, and try to talk seriously and maturely about hockey. Good luck to your Red Wings!

Here they come

[DatsyukownzU13 1]

Welcome. I like having level-headed fans of the opposing teams around (if we end up being opponents that is).

Hey, what am I, chopped liver or something?

[Echolalia 2,961]

For the most part you'll be welcomed here. We're level-headed, save a select few.

[Electrophile 3,554]

Welcome. Don't be like all the others. Be normal.

Wow...wow....dude...counting the chickens before they've hatched is ALMOST as bad as disrespecting the octopus.

OH, and thanks for Hossa and Conklin!

[Holmstrom96 347]

Welcome sir! We had a lot of fun on some Columbus boards, we had issues with Ducks fans last series, but everything seems to be alright now.

So Coffey77, what did you think of "the hit" Kronwall put on Havlat? Was it clean? It would be nice to get an outside opinioin!

WE'RE LEVEL HEADED..

Welcome. I also don't like the Flyers. Figures that they go after guys like Carcillo.

I will certaintly try my best. Don't let some idiot Penguins fans make you think we are all like that.

Coffey, this is an example of a statistical outlier on this board. Please don't let it influence your judgment too much of us.

I actually didn't have that much of a problem with it. He didn't leave his feet from what I can see. Thats the only time I ever have grief with a Kronwall hit(when he leaves his feet), but he didn't this time. So, I actually didn't see much wrong with it.

[mjlegend 155]

So, Mr. Coffey, in your opinion was Mike Therrien a whiney whiner or a good tactical coach?

[wingsdiehard13 33]

Welcome, It's nice having some respectful fans come here from opposing boards. Rather than the trolls.

Brooks Orpik cited the hit on Malone in Game 1 last year as dirty. You agree with him? I didn't think it was dirty.

[Echolalia 2,961]

What's your opinion on the stock market these days?

Thinking back to that, I think I was pretty upset at the time. If I can remember correctly, I think he did leave his feet. But it's really not uncommon for people to leave their feet when they hit anymore. In the regular season, I would probably consider it dirty. But everything changes in the playoffs. You can get away with a lot more. Matt Cooke does it pretty often. I guess that is playoff hockey for you.

[titanium2 867]

He didn't leave his feet. You might be able to say he led with his elbow/forearm though but I don't know if that changes anything.

[Rivalred 630]

I happily welcome you to the site...

[titanium2 867]

Oh and I'll say this much about Crosby. I'm rather indifferent to him as a whole but he's been scary good these playoffs. Definitely deserves the C on his shoulder.

Welcome aboard! Don't worry about the biasedness, we're all certainly guilty of that in here. Hopefully fans of other teams though are like yourself and the qualities you lay out.

[GMRwings1983 8,794]

Carolina will win 4 straight to win the series. Bettman will die of a heart attack as a result.

[drfnr14 0]

ahhhhhhhhhhh back for some more?

Titanium 2;

I DO believe it is very bad luck for this Penguins fan (or anybody else, for that matter) to presume to discuss the next round before this round is won.

I DO think it is GREAT that we have Hossa and Conklin.

I said nothing disrespectful, malicious, profane, or libelous.

I was kind of trying to make a joking-welcome to this Penguins guy.

You, Titanium 2, are certainly entitled to your opinion on this forum. I can't help but sensing you are a deep-seated ass, however.

Thank heavens you and your opinion mean nothing to me. When I see your posts in the future I will view them in the same vein as I did that "TOE BLAKE" guy from Anaheim...annoying, ill-considered, and irrelevant.
