Forces of evil were hard at work last night. It all started when i woke up with a bad hangover from night before. There was just a broken train, a cab, a stolen ticket, then Domski, then rain and traffic that stood between us and our mission. I knew today was going to be an especially hard day for all of us, but we live for moments like these. We breath them and we feed on their energy, we chew them up and then we spit them out. Moments like these define who we are and what we stand for. Yes i knew we were going to win this game. I knew this 3 months ago when i was talking to Peter at Foley’s. I told him, “Peter, i understand that you are a Penguins game virgin. However, October 3rd you got a date! You are gonna get some on October 3rd, baby! You are finally getting laid!” Now, i might not know much about getting laid, being on a date, or even hockey. I do have a refined sense of predicting the future thanks to my great grandma who was named Zhenya in honor of the great Geno Malkin. ( *WARNING* if you are wearing a hat take it off before reading the next sentence) Rest in peace grandma i will always love you.

NYC Pittsburgh Penguins Meetup Group … a legend is born!
Friday, October 2nd, 2009Written by Kristin Valentine
In April 2007, Long Island native and lifelong Penguins fan Mark Hanna – thanks to his father, a Pittsburgher – decided to start a group to connect with other Penguins fans in New York City. Thus, the NYC Pittsburgh Penguins Meetup Group was born! http://www.meetup.com/penguins/ on www.meetup.com. Mark held his first meetup during Game 5 of the Ottawa playoff series. Unfortunately, the Pens lost that game and ended their playoff run but the meetup had managed to bring two lone Penguins fans, in a city full of Rangers fans, together.
That fall Mark scheduled a meetup for the season opener and instead of two there were six fans. Over the next several months the crowd of regulars grew to about twelve. Two or three times a month Pittsburgh Penguins Meetup Group members would gather in a bar near NYU in the Village to watch our beloved Penguins.
