And just for a little lighthearted fun from Friedman’s 31 Thoughts this morning:


Rutherford, asked if there will be anyEvgeni Malkin trade rumours this summer: “Only if somebody makes them up.”

I’m pretty sure LA and Chicago have been asking about him!

I saw your post as it pertains to playing the Caps, Bolts or Bruins. I believe we can beat them all if we bring our ''A'' game. Doesn't mean we will, but I like our chances as much or more than any team. Any team that wins it all will need some good puck luck, but with our speed, our scheme and our overall depth I don't see a more complete team out there. And I'm not saying that because I want the Pens to win. I'm stating it because I believe it to be true. Pittsburgh, Colorado, TB, Boston and St.Louis, one of these five will hoist the cup. That's not exactly going out on a limb there, but I see it coming down to these teams. With Pittsburgh having as good a chance as any. Maybe better.

I agree, but they are teams that COULD beat us even if we play well. Habs are not.
 
I take all the blame in the world if the pens lose this series.
I've betted real cash for the first time in my life on a pens series win.
Probably needed a bit of excitement in theese boring times :silly:

btw: are we doing PO Avatars? I could probably use a new one...

Winning a cup, period, should be motivation enough. Almost Every team has such a player they'd like to see finally win it.

I sometimes wonder why we treat athletes a little different than we treat humans. We do this with celebrities, too.

I'll give 1 example. If I'm Justin Schultz, I'm possibly thinking of not playing. I cannot imagine they are being paid for this playoff. He's due for a contract and technically his contract expired 6/30. He could get paiiiiiiiiid in the offseason to set himself up. And let's face it.. if he faced a broken leg in this "playoff" he won't get paid.

Now.. you have to be away from your family in a pandemic. You are doing this in August. It feels so foreign as hockey players are just so so so into their schedule. Sid is an example of that.

So the "HEY IT'S THE CUP!" Yeah.. dude it's a game. It's a business. And if fans want to ignore that, that is so strange to me.
