So are you in this thread for any reason other to take shots at me? Cause that's all you seem to talk about.
Malkin and Neal got a lot of praise when the team was winning and they were on fire. Things have gotten hard. This is how things go.

Tell that to Lemieux.
Lemieux owns the team. He's financially invested. He's worn the uniform.
Unless someone is hiding behind a screen name, NONE OF US have laced up the skates for the Penguins. We merely enjoy (and I use that term lightly) watching the team play. We're fans. We have 0 control over the game.
Some people treat this like whether or not the Pens win determines if said person lives or dies after the game. THAT is unhealthy.

Gotta make sure everyone gets their cumuppins... got it.
I've made multiple points. You probably ignored it b/c they didn't focus on Neal or Malkin. Every once in a while I consider it a PSA to help a misguided soul learn that hockey is a team sport and not revolve around 1 or 2 players. Consider yourself lucky and informed.

Well thank God I have you here to tell me what I should and shouldn't post or think. I'll send drafts of all my posts to you so you can edit them for me.

Fandom is on some level emotional and irrational. Sports exists because they're able to convince people like me to make an emotional and financial attachment a) to an event in which I have no control, and b) to athletes who likely wouldn't pee on me if I were on fire. It's not a bad thing to react emotionally, and if venting about the shortcomings on a message board is how I or others react, so be it.

Just pointing out they know what they're doing wrong, but aren't executing.
If you read (present, not past tense) the Bylsma thread, you'd see why I posted that.
Vindicated.

Orpik then ignored the reporter that went right past him, but managed to complain he was misquoted.
