Why is Lange capable of saying Michel Ouellet but can only say Michael Therrien?
Therrien has said that Michael is fine with him.

I'm pretty sure they (maybe not the players, but other equals to Therrien) call him Coach Mike or Mike.

MO can't handle passes, pcm.

Like most of us, he can't make the pretty play. But he can get there and poke it in.

crosby looks really different

He's really not having a good game at all. Probably one of his worst, if not his worst, of the year.

Christensen and Kapanen, there's two heavyweights.

Post by **Gaucho** » Thu Feb 08, 2007 8:37 pm

"Different"?

Nevermind.

Post by **relantel** » Thu Feb 08, 2007 8:37 pm

nice way to get a shot off before the period ended... ;(

Post by **Ron`** » Thu Feb 08, 2007 8:37 pm

Better second period, on the road. Don't let the points slip away, take this game over now boys.

Steigy call after the Sid bad pass "oh no".....we all know that he's a homer, but lets keep it evenflow as much as possible...little pet peeve of mine..

All EC ever does with the puck is shoot, and I like it.

Dickie Dunn · Post by **Dickie Dunn** » Thu Feb 08, 2007 8:41 pm

Who forgot to give Crosby the memo about there being a game tonight?

pcm · Post by **pcm** » Thu Feb 08, 2007 8:41 pm

That was funny. But Ouellet, I still won't bash you because you scored.

*You probably don't understand much english either.

I don't know why people care that he is a homer. He works for FSP (P as in Pittsburgh). At least he gets excited when the Penguins score instead of getting excited when the opposition scores.

Ottawa 2 - Montreal 0

Come on guys.

What way do you mean Come On? Our playoff hopes are better if Montreal wins. I'd rather be 5th and play Montreal, then be 5th or 6th behind Ottawa and play Ottawa or Atlanta. It's better to have the teams ahead of us win and the teams behind us lose.

If the Pens win and Montreal loses the Pens move into 4th.

Um, Kovy? If you're going to pad your stats, you might want to actually win.

Sorry Kovy, but skip has a point.
Where's dagny? I need a conference...

I'm here. I'm just far behind real time in the game. I only go that far in the thread.

I have no idea what the score is right now... but, you can do it!

Btw, who's Mike Gonzalez?

Steigy is supposed to be objective about analyzing the game, but he doesn't have to pretend he doesn't care which team wins. They don't establish the opposing team's keys to winning this game.

Nice replay on the MO goal, looked like he was going to trip over his own feet, but he found the puck, regrouped and finished. That's a hockey player, not a star, but a hockey player.

I'm not a big MO fan, but he does find a way to finish a play and bang one in. Hands and heart. That's all you can say.
