Lemieux's ice house on the hill.


Good to know our 30 bridges are being repaired before failing.

Why not Malkin? I've been told that he is the face of the franchise and 100000x better than Crosby.

You were missing a zero. He is actually 1000000x better.

They should try to bring all the players up and have them all dig a ceremonial shovel full of dirt (they of course could then autograph the shovels and give proceeds to charity). I think it would be pretty cool if a lot of players showed up for that. They should also do a puck drop like the beginning of the all star games between Lemieux and Crosby (kind of a passing the torch type of thing, great photo-op). Unveil a new 3rd jersey same day (preferbly not the winter classic jersey, that was an event all of its own). I would like to see something new done up. I would also like to go back to the old black and yellow colors when the new arena opens.
Pizza Milano should be outside selling by the slice.
Any other idea's?
