Letang was a machine last night. 2-0-1 to start the year on the road w/o Sid is pretty damn good.

Also, why does Geno have to be injured again!?!?

Geno is still out due to soreness.

Tonight's game is on VS btw.

Damn. Headed out to the game in a few minutes. A couple of weeks ago I was hoping against hope that this would be Sid's return...now neither of them is playing. :mad:

I am looking for two tickets to the game Saturday 10/15. If you know of any available or how to obtain them please send me a PM.

3-0-1 is a good start considering Sid hasn't suited up yet and Malkin hasn't been consistently available. After last year, the team has to have great chemistry without one or both of them, so it's not a huge surprise, but considering most of those games were on the road and the one home one came on short rest, it's very nice to see.

Fun game. I had never been to a home opener before. Lots of energy in the arena.

Cracks me up that Matt Cooke is tied for the league lead in goals.

Times like this is when I still wish Rock was still around so I could say told you so about Talbot/Vitale.

It's not often that I miss him but yea, you're right, it's so fun (and easy) to prove him wrong. Hope he learns what a trap is before he comes back...if he ever does.

James Neal with 2 goals and Geno with 2 assists. These 2 should stick together.

Just able to see from the Asham fight on. Damn Ovechkin. Even though he probably didn't I was yelling "DIVE" on that penalty in OT. I hate that fucker. lol.

On the bright side, the Pens have earned 8 of a possible 10 points so far this season.

Asham fighting Beagle was dumb, but gotta give him credit for manning up and saying his actions were classless.
