[cookthebooks]

now we just need @HandshakeLine to make a thread ripping dubas so he goes on a trade hot streak

 

[HandshakeLine]

I am waiting to get my presents before I get put back on the naughty list.

15 points in 10 games since the thread's inception.
You have to wonder if he lurks here and got pissed off.

Yohe is definitely pissed

 

[HandshakeLine]

Im not particularly fond of him think it’s hilarious how stupid and petty he’s made this thread look. Hope he keeps it up

You know sometimes people post things to joke around and have fun and not because it’s the only thing that allows you to forget the fact you’re forty and on a message board?

I dunno, I'm pretty sure the stodgy OP has zero sense of ironic humor nor a sarcastic bone in their body

For sure. A whole thread and a first page of insults.. in the name of fun.

This thread is much less important than one of the dozens of "Mike Sullivan sucks mega dick and balls" threads.

Sorry to hurt your feelings Bryan. But might I add you’ve chosen a wonderful screen name? Very apropos, except you’re awful at center.

You can’t eat just steak. Sometimes you have to eat one of the lesser regarded food groups like ice cream, potatoes, or kumquats.

Dumb Americans ruin everything. No accent marks.

From Yohe:

That's now 15 goals and 27 points in 29 games for Rust. As I often say in this column, I don't know that I've ever witnessed another player who gets better every season. One must respect the way this guy works to get better.

 

[BusinessGoose]

Someone get a towel, Yohe is getting slobber on everything

This explains the increasing number of probations I have received lately

I got my first one in YEARS for suggesting a NSFW name for the Utah team ...

Well now I've gotta ask what it is

I'd PM it to you, but you're blocking them.

Some are much, much older.

It has now been almost 3 1/2 days since Bryan Rust has gotten a point.

Mid.

Mid.

Tarnished legacy

 

[HandshakeLine]

I know it's insulting to say, but maybe Bryan Rust has bad stretches and good stretches and they kind of even out. One might even say, "in the middle".

But that's just me, telling the harsh truths that make men cry.

 

[Pancakes]

Yohe can't help but criticize Erik Karlsson even when he's playing well.

At 34, Karlsson isn’t going to change. This is who he is. He’s driving offense consistently right now, which is paramount for the Penguins to reach the postseason. Penalties like this, though, are real head-scratchers. He also was responsible for a couple of Grade A chances against. Just another night in the Karlsson Experience.

However, Rusty is a god among men:

That power-play goal, however, never should have happened. During the Detroit power play, Bryan Rust turned on the jets and torched Moritz Seider in one of the most impressive displays of speed I’ve seen from an NHL player all season. Seider, knowing he was beaten and fearing Rust was about to capitalize on the short-handed opportunity, pulled him down. It was a very, very clear penalty and an easy call, made easier by the fact the Penguins were short-handed. NHL refs love evening up the play.

Can you guys imagine Yohe writing anything so flowery about another Penguin other than maybe Sid?

 

[HandshakeLine]

"You know who was the real hero of the 1991 Stanley Cup squad? Troy Loney. "

-Yohe's dad.

 

[CheckingLineCenter]

that pass was not mid

 

[Gurglesons]

I'm not a Bryan Rust hater. I also think PIT fans think he's better than he is, but it's kind of wild he hit 400 pts in 600 games.

I guess that just speaks to what scoring is like in today's NHL.
