No game can tie my stomach into knots like the Pens-Flyers games...I swear I age just a little bit faster during these games.


Here's to a great weekend of hockey

I literally took off from work two nights just to be able to sit up and watch these games live on tv. Yeah, that's devotion for you.

Lets go boys take care of business!!!

I just hope Zac is out there to attack.

With the closeness of the division we need to play this like its a playoff series. hard hitting and close games and come out on top.

 

[Cobiemonster]

James Neal is out indefinitely for the Penguins with a concussion

 

[JBM73]

* Cal Heeter has been returned to the Phantoms. Ray Emery took his second straight full day of practice today. No direct word from the coach on the goaltending rotation for the weekend, but there were the subtlest of hints that Steve Mason will go tomorrow and then a decision will be made about Sunday based on what happens in tomorrow's game.

I think that's the right plan of action, although, putting Ray Emery back into a game this weekend is interesting

Let's bury these bastards

 

[mall3013]

We need points in the next couple of games. The Rags are losing, now it's time to catch them.

 

[awaz]

I live for these games.

 

[FlyerFinFan]

I think they'll wear down their D great time to show them their playoff game.

 

[banditshcky11]

My thought is of we stay out of the box this weekend we take both these games. That said I hope they sit Downie.

Wish I could call out to but I have burned my PTO days already, luckily I'm off sunday & monday so I can catch the sunday game at least.

 

[mall3013]

Let's hope for a good game and not let the refs decide the outcome. Gotta score on the PP.

 

[awaz]

Alright let's win like 6-1 flyers. I could go for that.

 

[Maverick426h]

Pens without Neal and Kunitz. This is quickly becoming a must-win game for us.

Nice ceremony honoring Fred Shero. Two cups back in the 70's.
