Or LA.

Cuz, 99.99% of the people there have no idea there's a team there either. They may as well not exist.

And 0.005% of the 0.01% that know about the Kings think they play basketball in Sacramento and only go to the Staples Center cuz...stuff.

Well, if you insist. Normally Nashville is at 2.47 goals per game, that's against NHL competition though. I'm not sure what their stats are in games like tonight

Another shut out for Fleury last night... Because name brand goalie...

I think a lot of his success has to do with the Pens playing better in front of him and possessing the puck, but he still as always makes some outstanding saves when called upon.

Dupuis out 6 months with a blood clot in his lung, traveled up from his leg. Poor guy can't catch a break. It's so sad, he came back so strong from the ACL repair only to go back on blood thinners again

Isn't this the 3rd blood clot related issue in 2 years for the pens?

Don't drink the Pittsburgh water.

Yes, Vokoun had one, but he had a history even before coming to Pittsburgh. Duper had one right after his ACL reconstruction, and then again just recently. Don't worry, I don't drink the water, thanks for your concern

Wasn't there something clot related to letangs stroke? Most nhl teams deal with concussions, acl/mcl tears, lightsaber wounds... Pitt has some kind of hyper coagulation thing.

Moog's former beloved Kings player, Jack Daddy-Farking Johnson is broke...like, Latrell Sprewell broke.

I swear, the Oilers are purposely trying to be this inept to draft as many 1st overalls as possible. They played for almost half a minute last night short-handed despite not being on the PK.
