Malkin thread

So you and Sid are on the outs?

 

I can't just sit around and pine over him all day. I've moved on. For now.

 

a true fan of the game. commendable.

Shit, Sid's close to coming back anyway, isn't he?

 

doesn't matter. Pens playing great hockey without him. Big comeback win tonight. Malkin is the real deal, he's solid. I will pull for the Pens to do big things the rest of the season for Playa. As big as a fan as he is, I know what it's like to see your team suck for a decade and then put together the right pieces to make a nice run to the cup.

 

Thanks Franchise, you're a sweetheart. Crosby is coming back in a couple weeks. Fleury should be back within a week. I'm a bit concerned about peaking this early. Devils did that last year and then .... they lost first round right? And Malkin is a beast. Another 3 pts tonight. I'm fucking giddy.

 

Someone is going to have to have a hell of a week to take the player of the month award from Malkin.

 

I would like to see the Pens win it. They sure as hell invested enough and it would be the proverbial fuck you to the city of Pittsburgh for almost losing the team.

 

Fleury back this week. From tsn:
Fleury will make an equipment change once he returns: He is discarding the bright yellow goalie pads he has worn since his rookie season in 2003-04 and will wear white pads, as Conklin and Sabourin do. During his injury layoff, Fleury was shown statistics that goalies who wear brightly coloured pads tend to give up more goals than those who wear white pads.

Too bad, I liked those pads. Could be some truth to that though- look at the hole they managed to find here:

 

those pads woulda looked great in the old black and gold uni's....the gold they have in their scheme now doesn't really work...

 

Yeah, it stands out horribly but it was always so easy to tell who was in goal.

BTW-
Malkin pointless in 2 games, both OT losses. The wheels are falling off the bus or cart or whatever the saying.
