[Courtsey of FSN and PENS UNIVERSE]
0-24 last year? Must have blacked out. God.
Who would've thought a 5-2 win against the Thrashers on January 5th would be comparable to sex?
But that's what it is.
Although it's difficult to give this game a lot of weight.
Atlanta has now lost 9 straight.
Compared to the recent teams the Pens have faced, the Thrashers are butt crust.
But a win is a win.
Jordan Staal is on a different level. With Bingo and Geno busy making hotel arrangements for Vancouver, Staal has arguably been the Pens' most solid player the last 10 games.
It was nice to see a guy like Caputi, playing for the injured Chris Kunitz, get a goal.
That is why we hated Chris Bourque so bad. He didn't do shit. It took Caputi a shift to show up.
(Stay tuned after the jump for a beautiful Chris Bourque story.)
A big test for the Pens looms on the horizon.
After the Flyers at the Mellon on Thursday, the Pens go back on the road.
As we all remember, the last time the Pens hit up Western Canada, it was a good time.
Fiddy
Matt Simmons
Curto

Pliefeld

Chelsea F.
By the halfway mark of the first period, the Thrashers knew what Brent Johnson's bowel-movement schedule was.
It was a relentless assault of shots.
In keeping the Pens in the game early, Johnson was flashing the glove and had help from the post.
There's absolutely nothing else to say about the first period.
Luca Caputi drew a penalty, which gave the Pens more players than the Thrashers for two minutes.
Poop.
Nacho Guy unimpressed
"Hey Guys -- I live near Hershey, PA, and after Chris Bourque got sent back to Hershey, I figured it was only fitting to get a picture of him with Pensblog Charlie.
He even autographed the poster for me.
I think that Bourque likes to spike his hair so he looks a little bit taller, but the picture of him signing the poster makes him look like a freakin' midget. For perspective, I'm 5'10''... he's just not a very tall man. haha.
GO PENS!

The nets started filling up in the second period.
It started when Letang moseyed into the slot and beat Pavelec with a wrister. 1-0.
Not be outdone, AC gets a semi-breakaway.
Johnson's poke-check was futile. 1-1.
Dude in the hat is up to no good
The Thrashers almost took the lead 2-1 when Malkin makes a bizarre pass to the front of his net. wtf.
We were gonna see that again later in the second.
Jordan Staal comes onto the scene and bulls his way into the Thrashers zone.
TK picks up a loose puck and has no clue why Staal is left uncovered in front. 2-1.
The Thrashers gave the Pens consecutive power plays halfway through the second.
As much as the Pens PP is robert downey jr, you mess with fire, you're gonna get burned.
Their PP goal comes on a rush, not on a PP setup in the zone.
And again, Staal made shit happen. Feds picks up a loose puck. 3-1.
What a stupid play by Armstrong on that play. Idiot.
And less than 2 minutes after Staal's goal, Crosby sets up Slater beautifully in front. 3-2.
It all added up to the Pens going into the third holding onto a one-goal lead.
To tag your pics with your name, go here.
It even downsizes your pics for you.
The Pens had to kill that Goligoski penalty that drifted into the third period.
Cake. Pens even had the better scoring chances. Staal again.
Evgeni Malkin's slump is an enigma. Then again, he's 23 years old.
When we were 23, we were getting slammed with overdraft fees every week and our cars wouldn't start.
So Malkin becomes a one-man wrecking crew and takes shit into his own hands.
No NHL defensemen should let Malkin make that move in front.
Malkin gets all he can on a backhand to the net.
Rebound. Luca. 4-2.
It's not too early to hope the Mellon resonates with chants of LOOOOOOO in due time.
It was still a two-goal lead that could turn on a dime.
As soon as the Thrashers decided to give up, the Pens took advantage to put the final nail in.
TK and his speed never gets old.
He flies into the zone, lets off a shot.
NHL 10. Jordan Staal. 5-2. GAME.
- Huge win for Cowboy Curtis. Keep the gameday ideas coming.
- USA USA USA USA
What a win for the USA over Canada in a surreal game at the World Juniors.
This game only makes you think what the Olympics will be like.
Speaking of which, we have big news.
We are ironing out most of the details, but we will be launching a Olympic Fantasy game at the end of the month.
It is from the makers of Rinkotology. And it is going to be sick.
It will be a $10 buy in. Winner gets $500 and a world-championship belt we are designing.
Second place gets $400, third place $300.
Or at least that's the plan. Money amounts might change as we get closer.
But we want to gauge interest in this thing.

Solid game last night. Even though Sid looked out of sorts last night, the rest of the team picked it up - at least after about the first 10 minutes.
You called Armstrong an idiot. Prepare for the onslaught - lots of folks defend him like their kid's virginity.
Some typed out chest-thumping in C-blog last night. I gather somebody needs to look up the definition of "respect" in the dictionary. Here, let me help:

"chest-thumping in C-blog"? This is something that happens daily now.
Flyers Thursday. My mind is already full of win.

I think most people who are Army fans are pretty realistic about what would or would not be appropriate to get him back, and where he should play if he were ever to be resigned. Don't be douches, gentlemen. ;)
It was nice meeting up with the cblog Hall of Fame last night! The Pens' win streak when Fleuryous and I meet up is still intact. Hooray for us!
Also, I can't wait until the day "Chris Bourque" is on the list of censored words.

I dunno, they got that defenseman now who's going to stop Sid & Geno. I hear they traded for him especially for that reason.
And did somebody just job Fleuryous and Eileen? Really? I guess having fun at the game must be illegal now.

I know it's a little cliche to say that Team USA overcame all odds, but that's exactly what they did last night. Early in the 3rd, Canada gets away with high sticking. The fellas in the booth "Loved it because it put the game in the hands of the kids" USA went on and scored during the next 2 minutes anyway. Late in the 3rd, Team USA is helped into the Canada net by a defenseman. Eberle showed up for the final 3 minutes of the game to send it to OT. Team USA ignores that potential momentum shift and wins anyway.
Go Team.
Go Team.

This town has some sort of mass man crush on Colby Armstrong. . .its sad really. We trade away a world class athlete like JJ (because, all "dying alive" comments aside, the pens CHOSE not to pay him market value any longer) who helped bring two Stanley Cups to this town, and he's booed whenever he touches the puck. But whenever The Thrashers arrive in town, everyone's lining up to stroke a guy whose greatest contribution to this organization was allowing the Pens to land Pascal Dupuis.
I can't wait to see what the reaction is when Talbot gets traded in a few months.

I don't care that the Thrashers suck. All that matters to me is that we won!
Has anyone noticed that Malkin seems to be a little off and I don't mean in a slump either, it almost seems like he's recently had a concussion or something. He's been doing a lot of things that just don't seem to be like him.

OMG you know I REALLY do miss him and I was PRAYING that we'd sign him so he could retire a Penguin but that's highly doubtful. He may not be bitter about that or even care but I do. I mean we did it for Barasso so why not Jagr.

Not that anyone cares, my love affair with Army started during the lockout. Malkinstein and I went to a Baby Pens during spring break (and we took rovers... sweet baby jesus I'm still wondering if that was a mistake, love ya sis) and I just loved watching him play.
DA - Ditto on everything. I'd love to get Army back, but it is what it is. I still have my own personal opinions on the trade that took Army away, but I've gotten over it. So now I just try my best to make sure I get to see the Pens play the Thrashers at least once a year.

At the risk of being killed, I'm not a huge Malkin fan to begin with just because of certain things he tends to do. But yes, he does seem off. Even the things that he tends to do that I don't like... it's just been worse and on a much bigger scale.

Solid 50 minutes of hockey last nite. Nice to get 2 points regardless who it's against.
Was anyone listening to the pregame show? Stan was talking about Kolalchuk being on the market and the possibilities of where he could land. He said Chicago has expressed interest in him. How in the hell could they pull this off given that they just locked up Keith, Toews, and Kane for long term given that Ilya wants top dollar? I'd appreciate some insight on this even if it's just hypothetical thinking.

The Pens were not out played in the first period. Out of the 16 shots they gave up 12 or 13 of them were low probability shots from the blueline or along the boards, and Johnson was seeing them all the way in. Caputi looked like he belonged in the show, lets hope it was not just first game excitement.

Colby Armstrong deserves only one thing when he comes here. . .to have his ass handed to him whenever he steps on the ice.
His only saving grace is that, on top of being a nobody, he plays for a franchise that is a virtual nullity, so its okay to have some unsubstantiated love affair with him.
Maybe I'm old school, but I don't like the Pens opponents. Do I hate them all? Certainly not, but I sure don't consider myself their fans. COLBY ARMSTRONG IS AN OPPONENT. HE DOESN'T PLAY HERE ANYMORE, AND HE NEVER WILL AGAIN.
Get over it.
I hope he gets traded to the Flyers. . . .then maybe a few Colby fans will kill themselves.

Seriously, dude, you're a fuckwit. Put your thumbs back in your ass so that we don't need to deal with your asinine shit any longer. I can only imagine the kind of diarrhea that would come out of his fingers if I started talking about my continuing man-love for Rob Scuderi.
I was too busy flipping back and forth between this game and the amazing USA/Canada tilt.
Unfortunately, I had to listen to Pierre Maguire juggle Jordan Eberle's balls in his mouth for about 40 mins. last night until John Carlson shut him up. God that was a great sound in Saskatoon after the OT winner--stunned silence.
Get used to it Canada, you'll be shocked in the round robin in Vancouver by a bunch of young (other than Drury) Americans. Ohhhhhhhhh I'm jizzing my pants now.

Oh DA, you underestimate Don Waddell. Pierre Lebrun mentioned Cam Barker and Kris Versteeg as potential fodder in a Kovalchuck trade.
Anyone who thinks the Hawks couldn't do this because of cap issues.. just remember that they know he's a rental. They're probably not interested in trying to sign him to term. They want to win now and the new contracts to Kane, Towes, and Keith don't kick in until next season. If they can trade away enough salary to cover Kovalchuck's current hit (6.39 mil) they take care of two issues: 1. Get another elite scoring winger. 2. Shed salary to ease cap concerns next season.
Waddell is kind of screwed because the other GM's know that the Thrashers are trying to salvage a return on Kovalchuck. If they had traded him earlier in the season, they probably would've gotten more.
If the Hawks think they can keep the right combination of people and also secure Kovalchuck they'll do it with the understanding that it's a 4 month (if they're lucky) rental.
And nobody would really be stupid enough to take on Campbell's contract, would they?

Makes sense from both standpoints to me. And yeah, they'd be scary good with Ilya for the stretch run.
Kovalchuk would make Chicago really (more) dangerous, especially if they add him at the trade deadline. But they'd be giving up a ton in return. At least with the Hossa deal, Shero didn't give up too much, or any key parts of the team. As much as I loved Army, Sharp is a better player and way more important to the Hawks. And nobody would really be stupid enough to take on Campbell's contract, would they?The Hawks can't pay the salaries they have lined up for next year (already at $61 mil., and they need to fill another 4-5 roster spots). So they have to find a way to move multi-million dollar players. Why not do it when you've got your best shot at a Cup? Obviously Campbell would be the best guy to move for them, given the cap constraints and how much the guy makes. Not only that, Atlanta has plenty of cap space. But in order to take on that huge contract, the Hawks are going to need to give up something valuable. Versteeg (and maybe Skille) might be that extra chip, and in return, the Thrashers may throw in another pending UFA like Army or Afinogenov.

@Stilly - Yes, that's exactly the point I made absolutely no effort to make. Chicago is in "win now" mode, but by shedding some long-term salary for a rental, they can increase their odds this season while clearing up some cap issues for next season and beyond.
@Kovalchukblog - A team I wouldn't be surprised to see make a move for Kovalchuk is the LA Kings. As I understand it, they have some cap space, a stable of young (cheap) talent and they need somebody to help carry the load with Kopitar. I like Frolov, but he is streakier than your mom's underwear and the rumors that they're unhappy with Frolov have persisted for like 4 years now. If the Kings are in a decent playoff position, I'd think they'd be another team to enter the Kovalchuk derby and they may be more likely to land him than most other teams who covet him.
[EDIT] I'm not trying to start some fake internet rumor like Eklund - just stating opinion.

I guess I misunderstood their interest - I can totally see them wanting Kovalchuk for the trade deadline and making salary room for him (though if they give up somebody like Versteeg and don't win, it sucks for them). My question was more regarding how they'd be able to re-sign him. It makes more sense to me if that's not their intention and they'd be letting him walk in FA.
Not that it'll ever happen because I'm sure they'll find takers for anybody they try to move (even a sucker who'll take Campbell) but what would happen if they were over the salary cap and just couldn't shed the salary necessary to get under it? Would they have to start waiving people? I wonder if that's ever happened before. Not that I recall offhand, but I don't pay a lot of attention to the cap unless it involves the Pens.

Remember when they were icing 16-man rosters for a week or two last season? It was because they were too close to the cap and couldn't bring any players up without going over the cap, and since none of their injured players were injured seriously enough to be put on IR (i.e. - wouldn't be out of the lineup for at least 2-3 weeks), they were forced to shorten their bench.

If they are over the cap really bad crossing the stream stuff starts, like forcing them to send players to the AHL(ie exposing players to waivers) or they get their scrotums nailed to the floor(which in the case of Don Waddell a super idea) or other unpleasantness.
I'd love to see Kovy go to the KHL and take Captain Cave Man with him.
People like Army because he's funny as hell and generally a good guy. He's not that great a hockey player and he's one of the dirtiest players I've ever watched. I love the guy, but I don't give a fuck about him now. Just like Bobby Scuds, Ho$$a, Malone, etc. They ain't Pens, so fuck em. Some of yinz better get your last hugs in with some of the current roster cuz I think some of em are headed out the door soon.

Man.. I was just trying to put together a package that could maybe net the Pens Kovalchuck.. and I don't think it's feasible.
It was really a shock to see how the salary is distributed throughout the lineup. I don't think there are pieces that Shero would be willing to part with that carry enough salary to net Kovalchuck. Kunitz is the obvious choice here, and Waddell would probably be receptive to the term associated with that contract. After that it gets dicey. You can't get rid enough salary in your forward group alone. Maybe something that contains Kunitz, Fedotenko, and Eaton. Probably not likely since both Fedotenko and Eaton are UFA next season.
I don't think the math works out, but I'm not an NHL GM either. In any case, it's going to be interesting to see what happens next season in regards to FA's. Fedotenko, Guerin, Cooke, Gonchar, Eaton, McKee, and Skoula are UFA. Letang is the only RFA not yet signed to a contract. Word is that Gonchar is receptive to a paycut, and that Letang wants something in the neighborhood of 4 years 16 mil. So don't be surprised to hear Letang's name in rumors.
Edit: I sound like a complete tool in the first paragraph. Like I can put together a package for anything. Joke.

Anybody who boos Jagr is a certified grade-a dicktoucher. I remember wanting to give that guy an HJ when the only fucking words he could say was "I like Kit-Kat."
Its not that I want to blow Army. I think he fits into a role that Kunitz plays at a cheaper (and slightly less productive) rate.
If any of you math geniuses can figure out how to sign 8 free agents with the 11.8 million in salary they are all playing with, find a possible replacement for Bill Guerin and his 2 million a year and manage to sign Jay McKee who is playing for basically room and board I'd like to hear it.
The fact is that Shero is going to be making some tough decisions and this is the time of year he starts making them. If I had my way I wouldn't fuck with the chemistry on this team one bit, but at least Armstrong is a known quantity and has chemistry with some of the players already.
Plus it was kinda sad listening to how emo he was during our first cup run.
Luca is changing things up and I'm glad. Maybe he's going to be the next Talbot/Letang/Kennedy star that comes up from WBS.
But until Tangradi is ready, we need someone who will play with some heart and some grit on Sid's line at a reasonable rate.
If Sir Buries It can make Rob Brown a freaking all star, you could put a fire hydrant (that could check please) on Crosby's line and he'd score 30.

You're absolutely right. I tend to favor the lesser-name players and backups. They deserve love too. Sometimes those guys turn into big name guys. And sometimes the big name guys that my dad yells at me for saying suck at life end up becoming the biggest nobodies around.
I don't think Malkin sucks, I don't think we should send him to the baby pens or back to Russia or anything like that, even before last year, there are just some things he does that I don't like and he's by far not my favorite.
For some reason some people just seem to believe (I am not saying you or anyone else in particular) just seem to think that everyone has to automatically be in love with the big guns. I appreciate what they do most of the time, but I guess I just tend to be slow at jumping on the bandwagon. Most of the time.

Perhaps he was celebrating all those offers to play in the NHL that he says he keeps declining.
The cops just released his arrest video. It appears he is aging rather quickly.

Quoting SK360:
D22 has a guy like that too! Every time a D-man or someone on the point touches the puck he's screaming shoot. The best is when someone walks to their seats during the game though. He goes off the deep end yelling at them to wait to the whistle. The one time he did it, play was all the way to the right so he could still see it and he was still screaming at people.
Ditto on the 66 throwback last night BTW

I didn't hear that man. What a ridiculous/asinine thing to say. Although, it makes me laugh, because...do you realize how HILARIOUS that would be? He would poop all over the opposition...what an idiot.
F17 seemed to be filled with cbloggers last night.
That whole area is full of dicktouchers. My dad and I had to sit next to that guy and his wife. My dad isn't very into sports, but I took him since I'm moving and he's never been to a game there. Anyhow, after every goal, the guy's wife would walk up and down the aisle and high five everyone. The guy also said we should send Malkin back to Russia, and that he is worthless as a player.
Then there is some guy down in E16 I believe who screams "Bury the biscuit" the entire game, even when the other team has the puck.
I DID Hear him say that he should go back to Russia. lol.
I was rocking my new Yellow 66 1985 throwback, couldnt miss me.

Completely agree. That got annoying REAL fast.

Re: USA Jerseys
Orpik is uncontested for #44 if you base it off numbers players have worn. More than likely its a safe pick.
However, we've talked about it before and the safest bet is to order a blank and have it done after the team starts to practice. There are about 20 games in between now and the Olympics, and anything is possible.
Hope this helps.

J. Adams Candidates: Mike Babcock, Detroit Red Wings: The toughest coaching job he has had in his career with all the massive injuries.

If that's the criteria for a great coach, why isn't HCDB on the list? All 6 starting D-Men injured, not to mention all of the forwards that were on the shelf. Plus the Pens are 4th in the East, Detroit is 5 pts out of 8th. Looks like Maguire isnt the only Pee-air who needs to get a (Bab)cock out of his mouth

I hope we get Armstrong on the team so he can either A) Cheapshot people or B) Miss a Cheapshot leading to a huge scoring chance for the other team.
Remember last night when Colby threw himself at Armstrong just before Fedotenko's PP goal? That was pretty awesome, I'm glad he's such a sound player.
I mean, then again, you only know what I'm talking about if you take these off:
I'm sorry Colby Armstrong was funny and a silly guy with Sidney Crosby and put up some decent numbers. Andy fucking Hilbert had 18 points in 19 games playing with Crosby in 05-06, why aren't you clamoring for his return from the Houston Aeros? Oh, right, because he was a mediocre talent who was made to look better by Crosby.
To summarize: Fuck Colby Armstrong.

it's unfortunate that the Pens first win in 2010 was kinda overshadowed by the USA juniors getting gold.
but hey, the USA juniors getting gold is still overshadowed by GAME 7 of the stanley cup finals 2009.

Let him make a deal contingent on your completing a contract with whatever sucker thinks Kovy will turn the franchise around. Too much to ask? Apparently.

Regarding the fan-chanting-WHOO discussion. I'm going to be forever in support of it, because the WHOO chant is a regular feature of game nights in WBS. After every goal announcement, the PA guy concludes his message with a resounding "WHOO!", which is answered by the crowd. It goes to my earlier point...if you can't take it, get out. You're not going to tone us down.
