Lemieux through the legs. Top shelf on Moog. Wooooo.

Trash.

It must be great to be a bandwagon fan of the most stacked team in the NHL, hopping on and off whenever they go on a 13 game winning streak.

I have a feeling that people who call out Penguins fans as bandwagon fans started watching hockey in 2002. Did everyone forget they were one of the more exciting teams in the 90's? Won two cups and had two of the biggest stars in the game playing for them? Made the post season 11 of 13 seasons before falling on hard times?

I think you're reading too deeply into this.

It's just the salt being passed around.

Perhaps. I don't post in here enough to know everyone's posting style.

 

[Clydefrog]

Kings finally play tonight after TWO nights off. That must have felt like an eternity.

To be fair, I know a lot of people that flocked to the bandwagon back then as well.

 

[toro5741]

Last time I remember the Pens being this preordained was 20 years ago...

I liked how that turned out

 

[sammich]

After listening to the presser for the first half an hour im feeling it even more that hes coming back.

 

[kassatsu]

Look, the last time the Isles were revalent.

 

[zedge]

Absolutely. I'm sure there's a few fans losing it out there. Only time I actually got punched in the feelings a bit is when Peter Maher, long time play by play guy, sorta broke down a bit on the radio a bit earlier. There's a guy who goes back a ways. Good on ya Pete Maher.

<3 Peter.

 

[MacAttack]

I suppose now that your team is stacked we'll be seeing a lot more of you...

Grrrreeeeeeaaaat.

*cough*

[Zaraki_Kenpachi]

Pretty jinxed as is, no?

Haven't read anything about Malkin for a while.

Anyway, let's focus on tonight. Go Pens. Bring the streak up to 14.

Touché

 

[CrazedArabMan]

Don Meehan just told me that Danny DeKeyser will take his decision... today! #NHL

Please be Detroit, please be Detroit, please be Detroit.....

 

[toro5741]

Look, the last time the Isles were revalent.

Getting Mario to cry about leaving the league wasn't relevant?

Spoiler

Sadly though yes that was the last time the Isles won a playoff series - at least nobody can call me a bandwagon fan.

 

[Terrordactyl]

Fuck it, I'm cheering for the Pens if(when) the Sharks don't make it out lose in the first round. I want to see Murray lift the Cup. The rest of you are so butthurt toward the Pens :lol this thread would be so fun if they won.

Love it, sharks stars and flames fans uniting under a penguins banner. Fuck this world.

 

[SCHUEY F1]

<3 Peter.

Yeah, Peter is good shit.

Probably not. I'm pretty sure everyone thought I was a douche the last time I posted in these forums on a semi regular basis. Of course I could start posting again.

 

[lamaroo]

Went to bed last night and Iginla was basically a Bruin, wake up this morning and he's a Penguin, feels slightly better man.

 

[Slurmer]

Probably not. I'm pretty sure everyone thought I was a douche the last time I posted in these forums on a semi regular basis. Of course I could start posting again.

You're good. We only really dislike devils fans.

Your posting style was one step removed from Tabris-land.

 

[Freyjadour]

Please be Detroit, please be Detroit, please be Detroit.....

It will be.

 

[Kave_Man]

My proposal:

Bouwmeester for Mike Kostka and Holzer.

Jay Feaster likes it I bet.

 

[Heretic]

I'm ready for the jeering and laughing if the Pens don't win the Cup this season. It's a hard journey, so anything can happen.

No no no. Don't start backing down now.

 

[Quick]

My proposal:

Bouwmeester for Mike Kostka and Holzer.

Jay Feaster likes it I bet.

Conditional 7th pick if Kostka actually scores with one of his shots.

Spoiler

NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

Needs more crappy college prospects.

this.

Yeah, well, unlike Tabris at least he has a cup recently to back it up.

 

[apocalidiot]

Being a fan of a team that has won the cup recently is not an excuse to act like a dingus

 

[3N16MA]

Well since it seems you all are dying for my insight I think I may start posting and share my expertise.

 

[Merguson]

Lol, Peter Chiarelli was told he had Iginla around noon yesterday.

 

[apocalidiot]

You don't got to announce it bro

 

[Pochacco]

Peter Chiarelli: "We were told at noon yesterday that we'd won the Jarome Iginla sweepstakes. We believed that we'd had a deal"

Awwwwkwardd

 

[Quick]

Lol, Peter Chiarelli was told he had Iginla around noon yesterday.

Iginla changed his mind before signing off on it, I guess.

 

[jbug617]

Iginla wanted Pittsburgh over Boston. That's it

 

[Simon Belmont]

Hockey can be surprisingly dramatic. Like soap-opera dramatic.

 

[lamaroo]

He watched Montreal beat the Bruins and changed his mind.

 

[Pochacco]

The LEGEND (and waistline) of Jay Feaster continues to grow.

Feaster: You got a deal!
Chiarelli: Fantastic.
Feaster: I'll tell Jarome the good news!
Chiarelli: Okay. I'll start the paperwork.

*A few minutes later*

Aaron Ward: I heard you traded Iginla? Where?
Feaster: Can't say. Sorry.
Aaron Ward: I have some 2 can dine for $9.99 McDs coupons...
Feaster: Boston. I traded him to Boston.

*A few hours later*

Feaster: Um... so... about Jarome...
Chiarelli: Yea? We still have a deal right?
Feaster: Yea! Well....er... nowedonthewantstoplaywithSidney
Chiarelli: What? You're just mumbling Jay. What's going on?
Feaster: What? Oh yea. Sorry. I gotta go Peter. Um, make sure to tune into Sportscentre tonight. Okay, coming!
*click*

 

[Simon Belmont]

Feaster eyes on that!

 

[Quick]

Jay Feaster, the new Steve Tambellini?

 

[jbug617]

The 1st round pick was firm and not conditional.

 

[Merguson]

Jay Feaster, the new Steve Tambellini?

At least Feaster does something.

Tambellini just drafts 1st overall and thinks he's the greatest GM ever.

 

[Marvie_3]

Yeah, well, unlike Tabris at least he has a cup recently to back it up.

Yeah but Tabris' teams have won the last 37 Super Bowls, 47 of the last 50 NBA Championships, and every World Series ever.

 

[Acid08]

Iginla didn't want to be a Bruin after all :lol

 

[sammich]

No he did not. He wanted to be a penguin and that was that. It was his choice in the end.

 

[Simon Belmont]

Looks like JVR will be playing with Kadri tonight. That should get him back in the points column.

 

[bonesmccoy]

Wait, who told Boston the deal was finished? It can't have been Feaster, right? Could it have been Iginla's agent up to some sneaky tricksyness?

 

[ActStriker]

According to Chiarelli it was Feaster.

 

[bonesmccoy]

According to Chiarelli it was Feaster.

Lol! He's not even trying anymore.

 

[Kave_Man]

Did Feaster at least tell him "hey the deal is off..."
