Don't count on Crosby. He'll be half the player he was earlier this year until probably the beginning of next season. It took Bergeron 3 years to fully recover from his concussion and get his play back to where it was before.

lol ... Bergeron is no Crosby
 
personally I think Crosby will not come back even 1 game too soon and will be the same ol Sid when he comes back

I think that would be the prudent think for the Pens to do. the team is doing well. Bringing Sid back could cause them to change their strategy and affect their success.

i would love to see him back but the cost coming back too early could have more damaging consequences for the Pens and the league

as I said above ... Sid will not come back early ... he will be back when he is ready to play at 100%
 
The refs really need to let the boys play. 4 horrible penalties in the wings/hawks game

Today on HockeyCentral @ Noon, they said that Sid was slotted to come back in the Pens final game of the season, which would be on April 2nd @ Florida.

I really hope that this concussion is just a one-off for him.

He would be back sooner but they have to play the Islanders second to last. That came could be a mess.

Ill be locked.

So repeat offender, hit to the head. Double figure suspension right? No this league is run by a bunch of dbag thugs. Give Cooke 17 games just to shove it up Marios ass. We took our lumps. Someone else needs lumps too.
 
Leafs win 4-3 against Buffalo. Now all we have to do is win all the rest of our games.....and maybe we'll get in......:p

An interesting event happened in the 3rd: Miller took a shot off of the mask, and Phaneuf went over to the ref to remind him that Miller is supposed to go to the "Quiet Room" for 15 minutes. The refs allowed Miller to keep playing, but if they actually followed the letter of the rule, they really are supposed to force him to leave the game for 15 minutes.

I can see problems/controversy in the future because of this not-very-well-thought-out protocol.

Unless a well-defined "Ding-Dong" was heard, I see no reason to send him to the rubber room.

Talk about Faint Hope, the Leafs sure have it.

I hope they coughed profusely on the Sabres tonight.

You never know. ;)

They have to exhibit legit signs of a concussion to go to the "quiet room". Just taking a shot to the head doesn't require it.


I just got back from the Bruins/Blackhawks game. Great original six matchup. And the Bruins shut out the reigning Stanley Cup champs. :D I'm 6-1 on the year now too :cool:
 
I have gone to 2 games in my life. I am 0-1-1 lol. Ironically the Pirates kick ass every time I see them.

There ya go Robo. Crappy game for the Pens. Worried? Nah. ;)

Dude
Ugly goals,but I'll take them:D I was a little worried about the Briere line but they showed up last night :cool: Richards is my only concern :rolleyes: I guess he's waiting for the playoffs ;)

And Zioxide
Thanks for manhandling the Hawks last night :) I just wish that one of your boyz would have laid out Tewes and or Kane :D

Its still not full practice. Thats a little disappointing but its still an upgrade and I guess he will be traveling with the team. Amazing I jus read he is still 20th in the league for points. What could have been...
 
I guess anyone can have an off night

wings down 9-3


hudler and lidstrom are -7 combined

I cant say I dont enjoy seeing them down by that much but cant laugh too hard the Pens got clobbered but the Islanders of all teams.
 
guess the leafs refuse to just blow away.

I just have one question

WHERE WAS THIS RW WHEN WE NEEDED HIM??????

EDIT-looks like my boys will get another shot at Stanley-
and if we can kick the crap out of Otter and the Stars, all the better

Been such a good season for the 'nucks. Yet all I ask of them is to pass the second round, could almost care less about the cup.
