It will be on youtube soon, keep checking there.
Main page of the Penguins website has video highlights up.

It's now on the PP.com main page.
That's a heck of a goal. The Devils did everything short of cutting his head off, and it looked as if even that might not have stopped him from putting the puck in the net.

Hockey hasn't been this much fun since the season Mario returned. I'm lovin' it!

Well, yinz are lucky -- MCM's on the road, so can't give his grades. But you know what? He's not really that bad. Yeah, partly it's his schtick. But he is the biggest Pens fan I've ever met -- even if he's not an OPTIMIST like me. Even though he's not a homer, he appreciates talent when he sees it. Called me after the game tonight (saw the last period) and was gushing about EM's goal. So cut him a break or two, eh?

Malkin could have had 4 assists too. His passing is unreal. Right up there with Crosby, two of the leagues best passers on the same line and they can both shoot the puck plenty good as well!

Malone and Oullete for Doan and Nagy??
As much as I'd like to see Doan here, we all know that's not gonna happen. I wouldn't mind a Malone, Scuderi, pick for Sjostrom and Boynton. Would have to be a higher pick. Don't know if Phoenix would do it, but they need some kind of change.
Speaking of the Coyotes, how long does it continue? Does anyone think it's time for the Wayne Gretzky experiment to end?

The thing I notice is he has the ability to slow his game down yet still be effective. Crosby and Malkin use speed to make people look silly but taal just eases in and kills you slowly. Recchi and Ekman look good with this style. But Staal got it done as a checking center, he got it done on the PK and he is getting it done as a scoring center against one of the better defensive teams in the NHL. If he goes back to Peterborough it would be retarded.
Indeed it would.
I can't help but think he's going to go back though, just because of the contract situation and the $$ involved.
Why? 3 years down the road, who will they be paying any money too? Gonchar, Crosby and Fleury. The Cap goes up a little each year, in 2009 when Malkin and Staal would be free agents we will have tens of millions to spend because Shero wasn't an idiot this past summer. The money will be there to sign them and there will be more than enough left to bring in people to fill the holes. And at that time the team, wherever it is, will be moving into a new arena and the Penguins will have the infrastructure and ownership in place to be at the top of the cap figure. It makes zero sense to send your 3rd best forward, who is getting better every shift, down to play against 16 and 17 year old boys.
We don't know the cap will go up? It's related to league revenue so it might actually be lowered considering NHL's success last season?

No ill will, Jerez. Stop taking it personal. Did you see the smiley at the end of my statement? I like MCM's analysis and I am a pessimist by nature myself.

I've been watching the Yotes on center ice and they have a pretty exciting fast team. Their downfall is their defense and goaltending. They should have no trouble scoring goals. Now this is what I've witnessed watching their last 3 games so don't take it as the gospel truth or anything. Another huge factor working against them this year is that they are in the west which is sooooo good. If the Yotes were in the Eastern conference they'd be doing much better. That is a very bad thing when the Sharks, the Ducks, and the Stars, and the Kings are all in your division.

look at the standings and
Coach Therrien proud of his team~everybody contributed
Less flashy stars last night, PK, Dominic Moore, hope he is
rewarded with a goal soon. Mark Eaton, Joe Melichar, R Scuderi,
all played good D in 3rd period.
Jordan Staal~Ice Man, nothing appears to fluster him, at all.
Flower Power, Go Marc-Andre!

lol, I know what you mean. He never really seems to show much emotion. After he scored he just had a little smile and was like, "well, i guess i just scored again."
