Just got back from the game. The penalty to WB/S that led to the game winner was a bad call, but it happens. A few thoughts, Tangradi is good in the corners and in front of the net when he's confident...just needs to develop that up (confidence) in Pittsburgh. O'Reilly can get knocked off the puck easier than my 18 month old daughter. Strait has some real nice intensity to his game, and Despres really does play cerebral when he has the puck...some real nice slick passes from Simon. Joey Mormina is more of a waste of space than Steve MacIntyre.

Tangradi scored in game 3. I'm seriously hoping this dude progresses enough to get a legit shot in the NHL next year.

I wish Root would carry these games. I've been listening to them online.

Loved the shot of Sabourin with Boys of Winter playing.

Noticed quite a bit of empty seats though.

How is Nick Peterson playing or how has he done this season? Could be PF that we could use maybe in season or two?

I e-mailed Potash and he said he's trying to get them to carry WBS games, but not sure if they would.

WB/S comes out to that in the 2nd/3rd periods. Pretty classic

I don't think he'll ever get an NHL game, personally. And he's definitely too weak and soft to be considered a PF

I was thinking the same thing. They remind me of the '90 - '91 uni's the pens wore

Seems like Tangradi is an impact player for the Baby Pens. Every time I check a game he's putting up points.

His skating/speed issues are hidden well down there. He'd be a sure-fire NHL'er if he could just increase those aspects of his athelticism a bit.
