Staal overload and why Ovechkin is a menace to all that is good
List of things I’m anticipating to be annoyed by in the NHL Eastern Conference Finals.
- Versus will beat to death the fact that the Staal brother are playing each other. Think I’m delusional? Why else would there be a Staal Brothers Drinking Game.
- Local coverage of who former Steeler’s head coach Bill Cowher will root for. People, he lives in Carolina now. If he doesn’t wan’t his house burned down he’s a Canes man.
- Canes have former Penguins’ Tom Barrasso (dick) and Ron Francis (not a dick) as coaches. We’ll be reminded of this multiple times. What does it mean? Absolutely nothing. The guys got jobs after playing for the Pens. Get over it.
- Erik Cole vs Brooks Orpik – OK this I’m looking forward to. Oswego, NY is still bitter Brooks destroyed their NHL son.
- Hurricane Evacuation Route signs all over Pittsburgh
- Not enough coverage of the Storm Squad. Seriously Pens… get an upgrade.
Pens in 6. Cole goes out in game 3. Letang is going to have a breakout series. Max Talbot will make a highlight film with 5 of the Storm Squad in Paul Maurice’s room just cuz he can.
Now for the Pens/Caps series that just ended. First off I didn’t think there were fans more clueless than those at Flyers games who boo for no reason and always chant “Cros-by Sucks” instead of “Lets Go Flyers”. Washington and that weeeble wooble Ted Leonsis proved me wrong. Do they even know someone plays besides Ovie? Do they understand what penalties are? From what I saw on TV there were probably Caps staff in the stands holding up signs on what to do.
That aside, anyone else notice how reckless Ovechkin is? If I shot the puck every time it touched my stick I would have 50+ goals too. He doesn’t great plays, he skates around like Happy Gilmore looking to hit everyone and shoot. Alex, your game is bush league goon. You’re lucky as hell you didn’t end someone’s career on this hit.
