Reminds me of the Chris Farley interview skits on SNL. The microphone pops are a good touch too to make this even more amateur.

It’s hard to be relaxed and humorous after a period like that! Hopefully the Pens have a good forty minutes so we can all enjoy it.

Our d men dust the puck off so much they work for Merry Maids in the off season!

Graves is just another one of a huge list of players that play better away from Sullivan and his system. I don’t know what it is about the system, but there’s too many examples of players that do better elsewhere.

Eller slashed and cross checked after the whistle and that’s fine.

A big goal from the reigning Norris Trophy winner would be nice right about now. I guess Sully would rather have him focus on defense than on what’s made him a superstar all along though.

When both players essentially played a full season, has Sid ever had more goals than Ovie?

Ovechkin missed 10 games, that’s close.

Another dropped stick. That is an art. It is a horrible call.

I hate the fact that this little slash and the player drops his stick is an automatic penalty
