ugh.

Tomorrow we have the pleasure of playing the President's Trophy winners of 2010.
Oh.
We can't wait.
Oh, how we have missed your beautiful face, sir.
*cough*

Seeing as Cappy is only one point above Ovie (and for that matter, Brother Steven - wtf?!?!?) in the goals race, it'll be fun to see where this all goes. And, of course, we'd love to get up some numbers against Washington. There's a very good chance that we'll see them in the playoffs at some point, and we'd like to head into that with a track record that doesn't suck.

With Malks and Gonch back and kicking ass already, it should be a fun game to watch. We like the competition that Ovie brings, and we can always pass time hoping Semin gets boarded by Matt Cooke or something.
We jest!
Kind of.

Nothing is really happening in the world of hockey right now. The playoffs are coming up, so news is kind of stagnating for the time being.
While we're pumped for the whole eastern conference playoffs, we're really displeased about a lot of the west. Like the Jackets being in 14th.
And either the Flames or the Avs being out of the playoffs.
But, hey, the Pens are what's important.
We'll survive.

Caps tomorrow.
Zoe's got your back.
I am making a majestic recovery.
All is right in the world

Go Pens

So the J-Lo videos are going to be a regular feature around here? Sadness.

"Experience has taught us not to make martyrs of our enemies..."

Words. To. Live. By. Bitches!!!

"Don't give them money or matches!"

Without money or matches, the CapiTOOLS are girl powerless. Simple as that.

Let us all remember our record vs the caps last year. 0-3-1 So while i would very much like to win tom night i don't really think the outcome means anything at all. Let them bask in their regular season glory. Let them think they have actually achieved something. In fact it may even serve us well to let them win tom. It will only mean their fall will be more painful when we end them in the playoffs again and again and again. I'm already sick of the delusional rantings of cap fans thinking they have done this amazing thing by winning the presidents trophy and that it somehow means they have arrived and are champs. Isn't it kind of pathetic that they talk as if they have actually done something? I think it is and im kinda sick of it all. It starts at the top. Their owner speaks of his team as if they are champs and they aren't. That is wrong. You never hear mario talk like that. It just isn't classy and it started day one when OV arrived at camp and promptly declared the caps were winning the cup this year. As if it was his decision and he had the power to make it a reality. It just makes me ill. It will be a beautiful thing when Boston promptly gives them a swift kick to the nads and they are playing golf before round 2 even starts. Think it won't happen. If any team stacked karma against them its the 2010 washington capitals and their big ass mouths. As for our record against them consider this. We haven't played our best hockey against them. Not even close. Yet they have played their best and barely beaten us. That says a lot. All we have to do is play at our normal level and they don't have a chance in hell of beating us.

ask the Sharks about how much it means to win the President's Cup... or the St. Louis Blues before that... all I hope is that Washington can enjoy the same "joy" of raising a President's Cup banner *without* the accompanying Stanley Cup banner!

I'm really starting to wonder if GOGO is really going to be what we want him to be. I mean he just fell down and cost us a goal. If he does crap like that in the playoffs he could cost us actual games. WTF gogo! I used to love you and then you stopped scoring and start doing stuff like falling down for no reason at all. Pick it up or stay off the ice!

I think Semen is trying to say something..."Bling me! Bling me!"

Megs said...

@Mouthgard - You are genius. I love the clip. It's so true!!!

@Bradford - I think you're totally spot on. I'm upset but not upset about this game. I wanted that win, but I think our guys do better when the odds are stacked up against them.

As for Gogo, he's got me worried too. I've been pissed at him since January ever since I noticed how he hesitates about passing the puck during the power plays. Could we like have Gogo be scratched a few games? Maybe that will light a fire under his ass.

@Carol - Amen to that! Another example and it's using ourselves here is the Caps should just ask the 1992-1993 Pens about winning the Presidents' Trophy. I smell a curse coming on. If Philly does play the caps in the first round, I'll swallow my pride and cheer for Carcillo and Richards to kick Ovechkin's ass.

MouthGuard said...

Okay who gave them a fucking Bic? Who? C'mon! Own up, dammit!

@Megs: Meant to ask you, when you saw Godard in the fleshness, did you by chance notice any ostrich feathers or perhaps a chalice?

Blue velvet. It's time for the Pens to don some velveteen rabbit duds!!!

Megs said...

@Mouthguard - hahaha. Unfortunately, I didn't see any chalices or ostrich feathers when I saw Godard. I wasn't expecting him to be so handsome in person. The second I saw him in that suit I thought "Holy shit, they weren't joking about him being a pimp."

It's different when you see him all dressed to the nines in person. It's like 100000 times more awesome than that photo of him in the red suit. So yeah, I wasn't expecting myself to yell over to him about how good looking he is and how awesome his hair is. But it happened, and yeah I am proud of it. I know I'm not a puck bunny, which is all that matters. I think the best though aside from getting that amazing smile and thumbs up from Eric was how a few of these guys (yes male fans!) cheered for me after I yelled what I yelled. These guys gave me high fives as I was walking to my mom's car. Apparently they agreed with me about Godsy's hair!

MouthGuard said...

@Megs - Bummer no feathers or goblets, but hey. You can't have it all!

We need to channel a "Playa Hata's Off-Ice Throwdown" for the playoffs, man. Make them "go" before they even hit the ice. Godard (Silky Johnson) to O-Felch/Uncle Daddy (Bucknasty):

"Bucknasty, what can I say about that suit that hasn't already been said about Afghanistan... It looks bombed-out and depleted."
