  Got anything new to say? Didn't think so. Can't wait until you lose the bet.

  
  ESPN, CBC and TSN are regional? I would tell you to wake up but that's pretty much impossible seeing you're completely brain dead!
  
  and....................it obviously pisses you off so, 39 YEARS.

  It's completely regional, it's montreal getting their panties in a bunch because one of their players happened to get injured and now they're grossly over reacting.
  
  Dude nothing you say pisses me off...ever...just want you to know that. I'm from boston, we have championships, if i can hold out to see the sox win one i'm not worried about the bruins.

  Bad loss today against the Habs! Pens looked and played like shit. Need to regroup and pick up two points tomorrow when Edmonton comes to town.
• rock_knutne

  BTW, a Toronto radio station started a rumor that Sidney Crosby's family are pushing him to retire from hockey, LOL!
  
  Crosby's agent and father refuted the claim:

  Let's hope they can get a win today. Yesterday was pitiful.
• End of Line

  

  Pens are currently up 3-0 on the Oilers.
• outdoorsman

  This is a game the Pens had to win. Cant let the worst team in the league beat you.
  
  Pens roll 5-1.
• rock_knutne

  Nice bounce back win yesterday for Pittsburgh.
• thavoice

  I know that he and his agent are disputing it...but what is the general thought around pittsburgh and Sid possibly retiring?

  This is one of the wins they haven't seemed to be getting lately, for example losing to Toronto. Want a make a run in the playoffs, you need to beat these teams. Be interesting to see if they can build on the momentum following this victory.

  Well he skated in full gear and took part in shooting drills today:

  Radio is reporting that Sid has been symptom free for two days now. This is great news, let's hope he stays symptom free and gets back on the ice, this team is a serious contender to win the Stanley Cup if he comes back.
  
  No one's buying the retirement story in town.

  Toronto is playing for their collective playoff lives. BTW, if you would have bothered to look it up, the Pens actually defeated the Leafs in a shoot out in one of the two back to back games in Toronto and lost in OT in the other.........three points in two games, hardly a struggle.

  I wonder how protective the refs will be of him when he comes back

  You think they'll be more protective than they already have this season? He already borderline wearing the red practice jersey like QBs do in NFL practices.

  Guarantee any hit that could be even close to blind siding or close to his head will be called. The nhl has to have this guy in the playoffs, doesn't help them at all when the best player in the league is out half the season.

  Alex Ovechkin has missed half the season?

  No he's a man.

  lol...people still think Ovi is the best?
  
  I'm guessing the NHL as a whole will aim to better protect the players. They are under fire due to the latest serious injury. Isn't there supposed to be a conference/meeting or something soon to discuss hits to the head and protecting players?
