It's third jersey night in Florida.




The Penguins came from behind to beat the Panthers in a shootout on October 23rd in Pittsburgh:




"They play with a lot of speed. They're really aggressive. They force mistakes and turnovers. Any team that has success will capitalize on other teams' mistakes and force them into mistakes and they've done a great job of that."

-- Sidney Crosby on the Panthers
Panthers forward David Booth can barely read or watch TV due to the concussion he suffered from the Mike Richards' hit.

Ben Lovejoy lost the team's practice shootout and was given a special task..

Former Penguin Georges Laraque may be suspended for this hit on Niklas Kronwall:



Another gameday character returns from the IR.


Do it.

Go Pens.

ASH FTW! Bruce Campbell can beat anyone/thing.
 
 
#3 Little Artie 2009-11-23 18:31
And although I don't think he did it intentionally, Big Georges should be suspended. Too bad about Kronw...I can't say it, that lousy Swede got what he deserved.

Did you just advertise in c-blog? LOL.

That was pretty vicious on Laraque's part. Hockey has no room for that crap.

I didn't like the danger of the whole Lovejoy thing.


GO PENS!

Ash is at the helm tonight? We'll be fine.

Fuck Captain Leadership. He is gonna have to drop the gloves with Booth the first time they meet. It's gonna be an Orpik/Cole situation...a vicious, clean-but-borderline-cheap hit fucks a guy up for a good long while and they gotta throw down to get the bad blood out.


My first reaction to the Lovejoy story was "Hah, that's funny." My second was "Um, with the defensive corps still partially in shambles, is it really smart to risk a guy's knee/ankle for a joke?" Whatevs, it turned out all right.

Go Pens.

Oh and Kronwall can keep himself busy in the hospital bed by dreaming of all the similar hits he's made and didn't get suspended for. Fuck him too.

Wow, lotta hate tonight. Pumped for this game....still haven't forgiven the Panthers for 1996.

Man, I don't care how much you hate the Panthers...I feel reeeeeally bad for David Booth. He's still a young guy. You gotta figure that when the Panthers play the Flyers next...it's gonna get shitty. Yikes.

Is MAFer in tonight for sure? I'd think they'd start Beej...although he might start in the Island on Friday. Dunno. Not Dan Bylsma, OBVI.

Either way, Craig Adams...I'm wearing your shersey. Do it.

Go Pens.

I don't think a single person has disputed that, but seriously - people are going so far out of their way to douche Bourque that they turn a blind eye to any shitty play of other Pens players. The dead horse has been beaten, buried, exhumed, beaten again, raped, beaten for a third time, skull-fucked, and buried again.

Awesome night. Watching the Pens come back from a shitastic first two periods to win in OT, and now watching the Avs smack the Flyers around.

My face when Chris Bourque took a penalty in the offensive zone.

What about the 2 penalties Sid took in the offensive zone?


Crosby has the scoring capacity to make up for what he costs us. Bourque... Not so much.

And, as an added bonus, the Caps gagged away a 3-1 lead and lost in OT.

Fuck you Teddy!

PLEASE tell me someone else watched the Ducks-Flames game? Not only was the goaltending UNREAL (Kipper and Giguere), but Iggy scores with 18 seconds left to send it into OT, and Giguere gets his first win of the season in a SO, with THE most insane fist pump I have ever seen in my life. Like, monstrous.

Most of you might not even care, but that's quality stuff right there.

...oh, and Corey Perry ran into Kipper on three separate occasions, and on the third "tackle," Kipper literally DONKEYPUNCHES him. Best moment of my night.

If he played in the East, I'd hate him. Still not over that charge on MAF.
