Get Your Penguins Championship Gear Before the win a damn thing

Saturday, May 17th, 2008

When the NHL says it is not favoring the Penguins to win, perhaps they can explain why Penguins 2008 Eastern Conference Championship shirts and hats and merchandise are currently on sale. I mean they have to give permission for this stuff to be licensed and sold, right?
Check out this link. Amazing. Stuff has been up […]

NHL Cooked

Monday, May 12th, 2008

If tonight’s Flyers Penguins game is what the NHL and the NHL playoffs have become, with these wimp-ass and one-sided calls that benefit Mario and his band of jolly wimps, then count me out.

Flyers vs Penguins Opener Takes Back Seat

Thursday, May 8th, 2008

But Philadelphia […]

That, he said, doesn’t mean you have to like the ownership of the […]

Cup Rings for all the Zebras

Sunday, May 4th, 2008

I can’t help but wonder that if the Penguins win the Stanley Cup this year, will all the refs get Cup rings too?
Likely will not be an issue as I do not see them beating the Flyers.
I’m sure the refs will have something to say about that though.
You know things are bad when a Flyers […]
