Zach6668 513 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Haha, honestly, he gets ripped on a lot among Pens fans, but I bet the general perception of him changes after 24/7 is shown this year. Apparently he is a pretty good dude, funny, etc. Link to post Share on other sites
Dread Aidan 8 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I was thinking about the players that I sports-hate (nobody in the NHL because I don't follow it closely enough (except every Red Wing because they're all douchebags (probably))) and my primary targets are all Celtics because they're all whiny bitches. It's weird that my favorite team's arch-nemesis contains nothing but whiny bitches, but I guess it just turned out that way. I don't know why the Celtics keep signing and trading for whiny bitches, but it makes it easier to hate them. Link to post Share on other sites
digitalmonkey 929 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Isnt this the point?Crosby is known by everyone that is a casual hockey fan, maybe not even a casual fan..Does the average person know who Jonathan Toews or Corey Perry is?Why is this?Toews had an amazing Olympic year..He was the best player on the team BY FAR..Yes he didnt score the last goal ..Crosby was mostly invisible in that Olympic series.Do people know this?NO...Because the NHL doesnt promote Corey Perry or Jonathan Toews to even a small percentage that Crosby is promoted.Thats allNo, the point is...Crosby is one of the BEST hockey players in the world. He's won NHL awards, a Stanley Cup, an Olympic Gold Medal....yadda, yadda, yadda.You say hockey doesn't belong in some markets and then you complain that they promote the most known hockey player. I know you'd be happy if Phil Kessel was promoted the same way, but the fact is that Kessel isn't as marketable as Crosby is. Link to post Share on other sites

SBriand 4 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I miss Stevie. Was really looking forward to tonights game. Shame it won't live up to the hype with all the injuries. Even Datsyuk is bummed out. Link to post Share on other sites

Zach6668 513 Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 I'm pretty sure the Pens get killed tonight.Even with the injuries, and even with their 6-3 win on Saturday, they haven't looked particularly good out there. I dunno, just used to seeing them crush opponents with their system. It's been a bit of a mess lately. Our goals against/game has been higher than normal, I feel, lately.

Does look stranger than most pics of that era. I see where you're coming from about outdoors... looks like natural light almost. Highly doubt it is. What's with the multicolour seats? Is that old Civic or old Joe? Link to post Share on other sites

Untilted 158 Posted December 21, 2011 Share Posted December 21, 2011 In before fryer...Why are hockey photos my favorite of any of the sports I follow? I like other sports almost as much with basbeall being about the same but there is something about the hockey photo. It seems more brighter and cleaner and it always seems to capture a great feel for the game. Like you are right there. Link to post Share on other sites
