Nothing went right last night for the Penguins in the Atl. The capital of the “dirty south,” has been a house of horrors for the Pens over the past couple of years.
Obviously exhausted, the Penguins were totally outgunned. That punk, Kovalchuk pointed at the Pens bench again, and listlessly, the Penguins did not respond.
Ruutu attempted […]

Pens 1 Atl 4
Lehtonen was lights out last night.
Ryan Whitney scored in the third period to prevent the shutout. Christensen and Talbot assisted on the goal.
The Pens seemed tired after playing two away games in two nights, when the Smith goal was disallowed, that was all she wrote.  That would have made it […]

Penguins 4 Devils 2
The Penguins over came 1-0 and 2-1 deficits. Jersey forward, Mike Rupp, scored a power play goal to give Jersey the lead after the first period. This guy Rupp is seven feet tall and is not know for his offensive prowess, in fact he hadn’t scored since before the lockout, in […]

…the injury walrus IS Paul.
Skating into Newark, oh yeah!
Malkin and Staal trying to make ends meet, yeah!
Looking through glass hockey puck (My unending apologies to John Lennon and Paul McCartney).
How, oh how did the Penguins win this game?
The odds were stacked against the flightless birds. That pesky injury walrus has been a gnawin’ at their […]

I just double checked the start time for the Pens/Devil’s game, and I found out Brooks Orpik will play left wing on the fourth line tonight. Alain Nasreddine was called up to take his spot on the blue line. The FSN announcers always mention how long Orpik has gone without a goal, I won’t […]

I’m ripping off a feature on my roommate’s Pittsburgh Pirates blog, hyzduhq.blogspot.com. I do it in good faith, not because I particularly care for the Pirates, but that it is a damn good idea.
There are some great Penguins in the team’s history that I think have been forgotten throughout the years, especially in the pre-Mario […]

According to Keith Barnes of the Tribune-Review and PittsburghSportsInsider.com, Head Coach Michel Therrien is playing Brooks Orpik on the 4th line tonight.
Is Therrien huffing spray paint? What the hell is going on? Yeah, I’m sure they planned on having the services of the “Next Ron Francis,” so they sent down Stone, Lannon, and Filewich. But […]

“I’m a substitute for another guy. I look pretty tall but my heels are high. The simple things you see are all complicated. I look bloody young but I’m just back dated, yeah!”
-The Who, “Substitute.”
The Pittsburgh Penguins claimed Kris Beech off waivers from the Washington Capitals. He is obviously a substitute for NHL talent. Maybe […]

The NHL did nothing to change its perception as a niche sport by giving away a mini-van to the All-Star game MVP.  Its’ rather fitting Eric Staal won the award, and the van, he has a big family which will fit comfortable in his new ride. Now, he and his brother’s could potentially go on […]

I hate the Flyers, man, do I hate the Flyers. I mean, I fucking hate this team more than I hate any other sporting franchise in the history of the world. Forget about the Browns, the Ravens, the Rangers, the Capitals.
Everytime I see the orange and black, I get red with rage.
I’m not old enough […]
