My god, it won't stop.



Although I guess if anyone would be in the know about what's going on with the Penguins it would be a Rangers writer.

 

[DegenX]

Wonder why they would make a request like that?

I'm sure it's not because he's an absolute cretin.

 

[BrunoPuntzJones]

It's simple. Chicago PD would know better than to even launch an investigation into whatever crime he commits this summer.

 

[SirBrad]

what the hell, this looks like the Cleveland Cavaliers celebration the other night.

 

[Winger for Hire]

This is by far the greatest gif ever made. Every time I see it I can't look away for a good 3 minutes.

 

[Dying Alive]

I have absolutely nowhere to put this but the cap thread didn't seem appropriate.



I hope Phil tells them to **** off.

 

[Speaking Moistly]

Play Orpik on the wing, problem solved.

The trade proposals for Malkin in the Trade section are comically bad.

The Pens have decided to rebuild. Just go with it.

No, the Pens are now the charity for Chicago. We'll give them Malkin for a bad contract and a late 1st so we don't look too suspicious.

It wouldn't be the offseason without tons of bad Trade Malkin threads.

Kind of strange Lecavliers game fell off after the lock out. You put up forty goals in the dead puck era you were something else.

Sure, but he's also 36. That's really about the time when not just one wheel comes off, but two or three.

 

[Brandinho]

The Andersen trade makes me optimistic about Fleury. Sure, he's older, but he's also a much better goalie than Andersen. Are people really that enamored over 5 playoff games against a middling offensive team?

Also the Malkin stuff is hilarious to me. Chicago fans have to either be extremely bored, extremely delusional or both to think there's anything to that.

5.5 for Goligoski? Jeez.

 

[Dying Alive]

Guessing AZ has to pay a bit of a premium to lure free agents there at this point. Nobody is happier about this deal than Keith Yandle.

 

[clefty]

I honestly can't understand why anyone would want to play for the Coyotes.

They've got an intriguing young team, they can overpay you because they're often closer to the cap floor than not, and Arizona is a beautiful place to be from later September to May or so.

Eh, I can see it for a defenseman like Gogo. A $5.5M/yr deal while getting to play with one of the best d-men in the league (OEL) is ****ing awesome. Relocation/financial issues take a distant backseat if I'm in Goligoski's shoes.

 

[Darth Vitale]

Shocking. Philly as an organization is such a joke. That place is where happy players go to die.

My god, it won't stop.

WhoTF IS this clown? I mean seriously I've never heard of the guy until now. This is how people get sucked into following all these dumbasses online. A few people see some official looking blog tweet some stupid crap, next thing you know they have an extra 2000 followers and everyone is all "I saw it on this dudes Twitter and he writes a hockey blog — must be legit!"

The guy obviously has his head so far up his ass he no longer knows up from down. I guess it has humor value but seriously we should stop repeat-posting people's tweets in here when they're highly bogus like this one. Just encourages the Rossi Effect.

Wonder why they would make a request like that?

They want him there to greet Malkin when he comes to town.

Pretty much. That young GM of theirs is off to a good start.
