You're a god damn jinx, bro.
Well we need to have our fucking Yanni bullshit scheduling issue again...cause if the Isles get home ice, it'll likely be a Wed/Sat lineup for Games 1 and 2 up there, since they're hosting Disney on Ice or some shit Thursday and Friday of next week.

Well...3-1 Isles now. Can pretty much lock up that Wednesday starting night up at Nassau.

Edit: Was nice of Columbus to sit Bob tonight to play a kid with 3 NHL games in goal.

But that's all in the past now, NEW SEASON!

Past 5 Penguins Playoff results:
2010 lose to lower-ranked Montreal in 2nd round
2011 lose to lower-ranked Tampa in 1st round
2012 lose to lower-ranked Flyers in 1st round
2013 lose to lower-ranked Boston in 3rd round
2014 loss to lower-ranked Rangers in 2nd round




You guys are all fucked now, no one is lower than 8th!



The final difference between 8th and 4th was 3 points in the East. And the spread between 1st and 8th in the West was 12 points. Shit was tight this year.

Good to see you back. Yeah it was tight, it would have been hard for anyone to predict Boston being the team unseated by Ottawa, versus the other 7 that still made it in.

I was never gone, I just post sporadically these days.

Also much more exciting than the Pens locking up the Stanley Cup is the Bruins being eliminated.

Fucking Leafs. Though to be honest the Lightning lucked out by not winning the division, we get to play Detroit instead of an absolutely red hot Ottawa team.

Pens have nearly 3,000 higher time lost than the 2nd highest team, Vancouver. Which is bigger than the spread between 2nd and 10th(ATL/WPG). Shit is absolutely ridiculous.

Pens have made the playoffs each of those 5 seasons.

Don't matter, Flower is about to throw 4 straight shutouts at the Rags.
