I stopped reading these blogs about 2 weeks ago. The Pens are a quality team that we're lucky to root for. Sid, "past his prime" is still the best all around player in the league. Geno's still capable of Geno things. The nightmare that is Gudbranson is actually playing tremendous, simple, hockey. We have 3 NHL quality goaltenders...one of which has been playing lights out. Letang seems to be getting better with age. Even Johnson is doing his job.
I mean, hell, we wanted young, fast, cost controlled players that play above their salary...McCann (awesome pickup) Blueger, ZAR, Johnson (from seeing him in the AHL looks like he's ready for a 4th line role), even Rust and Jake play well above salary level.
Yet! RW blogs every negative that could be pointed out. This team is playing well, will most likely match up with the terrible Islanders, or the free falling Blue Jackets. Second round, most likely Washington which is a crap shoot because of the rivalry aspect. If Tampa isn't burnt out and can make it to the ECF...then either we, or Washington, face a generational team. But, we have generational talent with proven playoff depth AND goaltending.
Basically, Pittsburgh has just a good of a shot to win it all as any other Eastern conference team. Plus, our WINDOW, That's been diminishing since Rutherford took over lol, has plenty of room with some of the editions that we've made.
Finally, an Eastern conference team will most likely won it AGAIN this year. Boston, Tampa, Toronto, Caps, Pittsburgh? Who knows. But, I CAN'T TAKE THE NEGATIVITY OF THESE BLOGS YEAR IN AND YEAR OUT!!!!!
Ok...rant done. Everyone tell me what's wrong with this team and why every other team has a better opportunity. - cranktheradio
Then don't read the blogs and skip to the comment section. Seems like an easy fix to this anxiety that lead you type in all caps. |

In 7th grade, I had a teacher who was an animal rights' activist and a hardcore vegetarian. I asked her what she'd do if she was dying of hunger and the only thing she could eat was a steak, and she told me she wouldn't eat it. I called her a liar in front of the whole class.
The principal agreed with her that it was a bad choice of things to say. - jmatchett383
Lol. I waited til 8th grade to start getting in trouble.
Damnit! Now I have to go back and re-read all of the comments to see how it came to this lol.
I hate Jmatchett, Bingo, Feds, and other teams fans who actually make the threads worth reading. You too Rhino since you #feedthetrolls who aren't actually trolls. |

It's my new thing. Some fans are doom and gloom, but at least it's intelligent conversation. Plus, I've been sick for 4 days...I missed 4 of my first 5 days at a new job lol. So, I'm just pissy. |

“Playoff Murray makes a return” Does that mean MAF came in and did the heavy lifting and Murray cane in for the parade? Or that he won a round and got bounced? To me “playoff Murray” isn’t exactly a good thing. |

What? The only one who came for the parade was Golden Child as Murray won all 8 SC Final games and 22 out of 32 overall.
I'd advised you to go back and look at playoff Golden Child in 2010, 2012, 2013 and 2014. HE SUCKED!! |

There was one two blocks away from my old place last year. I don’t know where the nearest one is to my new place but given that they are Legion in DC, I’m sure there’s one in walking distance. Maybe I’ll try to find it after lent (gave up carbs). |

Are you on a 3 day bender with little to no sleep or something? .... Some real nonsense coming from ya the past several days. MAF only played like 1.3 games in the 2016 playoffs and half of the 2017 playoffs...not to mention Murray's playoff stats, which are great...

My guess is he is just trolling. Not even the most dyed in the wool MAF(Golden Child) revisionist history person would believe that. |

No I just look at Murray and want to punch him in the face. It kind of pisses me off he’s the pens goalie and I have to root for his success. |
