Theo's golden years (or should i say his golden year) are over.
He'll have to play up to his salary pretty fast or else... Flush time!

Checked the "extended" highlights last night. Looked like a pretty crazy game.
Crosby had fire in his eyes. Man, the goal he made! Awesome...
That's what i like from hockey : it's not over until the fat lady sings!

Yeah it was a weird game. The Pens looked horrible until about half way through the second then just went nuts. I think the biggest thing about the game was that even being down 4-0 Fleury kept his cool and played amazingly well for the entire game (the 4-0 came about on some AMAZINGLY bad defense work for the most part). That was such a huge step for him as he tends to have confidence problems when they get behind.

I also think that if they don't make the playoffs with the team they have Therrien is going to be looking for a new job.

Sad news for our gm, Bob Gainey

Yeah. I heard about the Gainey daughter the other day. A major bummer.
It can't be Saddam's sons that get swept out to sea, right? It's gotta be a good guy's kid. Unfair.

Rick · 12-13-2006, 11:36 AM

Yeah, it's really a terrible story. Didn't his wife pass away from cancer not long ago?

Exact. in 1995.
Man, more than 2 losses like that in your direct family must be pretty heavy.
No wonder the guy never smiles.
Glad the Habs won for him last night. Very small compensation.

Well, that's wasn't an accident, right? Weren't they after them?

Being swept out to sea and eventually drowning is a far worse death than taking a bullet in the temple or eating a Cruise missile.
Saddam's boys got off easy.

Wow, Sidney Crosby is now the scoring leader in front of Jagr... And Jagr played 5 more games!
This kid really is a wonder.

Jim Balsillie has withdrawn his offer to buy the Penguins. Apparently he was planning to move the team (contrary to ALL of his public statements) and when the NHL made it clear relocating the team was not an option, he backed out.

And yeah, Sid is kicking ass. He had six points against Philadelphia on Wednesday night to put him in the lead of the scoring race.
