5idney Cr0(+1)sby Sucks In Last Game Of The Season

Tuesday, April 13th, 2010

Following my return from Pittsburgh was a relatively quiet game on Saturday against the Atlanta Thrashers. 1-0 Pens lost. WBS Pens clinched a playoff spot night before beating Albany River Rats! WBS Pens first playoff game takes place on Wed at 7:00 PM against the River Rats. Interestingly enough at exactly the same time Pittsburgh Penguins will be facing Ottawa Sens. So put down your scissors and your razors and let the playoff games begin!

More about last game of the season which took place in NY against the Islanders. First off let me say that if NY Islanders are missing two Chipotle T-Shirts from giveaway for section 330 or two cups of dots icecream from unattended and unlocked concession stand well then MouthFullOfTang and I have no clue what happened to them.

Judging from all the Penguins jerseys i saw around arena on Sunday this was truly a Penguin Invasion. Pens fans from all over gather to witness Crosby take a poop on Alex Ovechkin and win that Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy.

Grats Sidney!

What happened to Ovie!? Do you remember not that long ago when he was leading NHL in at least 3 stats? Most Goals, Most Points, Highest + rating? Looking at the stats for the end of the season Ovie is nowhere to be found. Good to see he really stepped up his game.

Anyway, we had to get ready for this memorable moment in Sid’s career and whats better than to create a Sidney Crosby Sucks sign!?

thanks to @mrsletang @kayewtie for the pic above!

When Sid scored his 50th goal we pulled out this bad boy and started chanting Crosby Sucks … Nassau Coliseum was stunned!

As a tradition we bring you the best of  hockey on Long Island in this opening ceremony: Ice Girls and EVGENI MALKIN!!!

Worth mentioning that Eric Tangradi was playing like a beast. Even though he was pointless he played hard and stood out during the game on many occasions. Good job Eric!

Leo with the game winner in OT  continues to be hot hot hot! Lets hope he can bring this momentum over to playoffs.

Eric Godard Is a Fighter and a Lover …

I had front row seats for this game and received warm welcome from the photographers. When their heads or butt cracks were not in the way i was able to snap some quality shots. Enjoy!

weekend hockey

Monday, March 29th, 2010

in my attempt to push the boundaries of english language and due to laziness of using my pinkie finger to hold down shift key i am going to ignore capitalization in this post. it has been a very fruitful weekend for the pens. they have been reaping the fruits of depth on their team against flyers and leafs. there hasn’t been a better time for our boys to step up and say enough is enough. with evgeni malkin still out with a foot injury and sergei gonchar out with some mysterious “sickness” hcdb used “tactical stratigery” to overwhelm the opponent on home ice. one of the reoccurring themes was present in every game this weekend … hcdb in cahoots with maf allows a garbage goal in the beginning of the 1st period in order to get the team going. as the result is the 4-1 win against the flyers and 5-4 win against toronto maple leafs. with devils losing to flyers last night pens are sitting on the top of atlantic division. hero of the week as much as i want to say matt cooke for keeping the pens alive in the game against the leafs i am going to go with pascal the birth canal since i have a funny picture to go along with that. of course can’t give pascal dupuis too much credit to keep him on his toes so i will continue to hate up on him. pascal great shootout goal but you still suck even if you are so awesome.

can they be anymore creepier than this?

thanks to someone on twitter for posting this picture and thanks for @birdmadxgirl for pointing me to http://www.nhlpa.com website which is the original source.

Geno Dapper Dan Award, Videos Blog, Flying Penguins!

Friday, March 26th, 2010

We here at PensHead.com (read that as only one guy hitting his head against the wall) are very excited to feature this ‘at unreal’ video of Evgeni Malkin accepting Dapper Dan award. First off, ‘at amazing’ introduction by head coach Dan Bylsma made Geno feel like he is a school boy desperately looking for teachers approval. Then Geno took the stage opening in Russian … first thing he said “Good evening to all, ladies and gentlemen”. Then as any respectable Russian politician Geno pulled out a piece of paper and started reading his speech. He was cracking jokes left and right “… Coach ask3d m3 not to use words Max taught m3 in my speech’. He was also cracking jokes when he didn’t even know himself,  ’I am a gr3atful to all of my t3amat3s and 3v3ryone in Pittsburgh organization for h3lp m3, i would not hav3 b33n abl3 to hav3 such a SEXFUL without 3ach of th3m’. At unreal, at amazing, and simply at stunning! Without further ado here is the video in case you haven’t seen it yet and memorized Geno’s speech word for word!

A picture was posted on at pghpenguins twitter account …

Yinz Luv ‘Da Guins, Best Geno Smile, Cooke Joins The Club, Puck Bunnies

Saturday, March 20th, 2010

And here’s a new episode (the first episode actually) of the Yinz Luv ‘Da Guins: The Podcast:
http://yinzluv.podbean.com/ (You can also download it on iTunes.)

Penguins earn their first shutout of the season with MAF between the pipes against Bruins. Boston Bruins were so hyped up and focused on getting revenge on Matt Cooke their forgot the most important thing … HOW TO PLAY HOCKEY! Only thing that could have gone better is if Geno was playing and Cookie scored a goal. Not complaining really. Not even going to post the fight between Cooke and Thornton … just want to get this all over with. Not sure what Mike Rupp was thinking fighting Chara but i don’t think he landed a single punch on Chara’s face … it was just too far away.

Penguins winger Cooke joins infamous club

Best Geno Smile Ever … found at 0:37 of the 2010 Skates & Plates video …
http://penguins.nhl.tv/team/console.jsp?catid=19&id=62529

So many other good things happening.

WBS Pens winning in OT 5-4 against the Springfield after being down 4-1 in the second period. Chris Conner with a goal to tie the game and Deryk Engelland with a game winner. Good job boys! Here are some pics from the game … http://www.facebook.com/album.php?aid=147485&id=25795361383&ref=nf

Speaking of the history, boys on the Pens radio mentioned “The Save” by Frank Pietrangelo … Pens back up goalie during 1991 Stanley Cup playoffs.

@pghpenguins http://twitpic.com/19l4ng – Want a look at the frame for the new Jumbotron coming to the Consol Energy Center?

Geno has been practicing. However, this is what he said about today’s game. ”My chances are not 100 percent. We play at 1 p.m. (Saturday) which is bad for me because we don’t have a morning skate. I do have a chance though.” http://penguins.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=521998

Thanks to Seth from EN we know what today’s give away will be. MINISTICKS!!! HAT TRICK TIME BABY!!!

Psycho Hockey Lady broke down the code for blogging about Puck Bunnies … kind of entertaining … http://www.psycholadyhockey.com/tips-for-writing-about-puck-bunnies/ So remember kids next time you see a girl at the game being in heat over Letang’s Sex Hair know that she might actually know more about hockey than you!

Poni Another Tenk? Penguins Meet “Buffalo Hat” Guy!

Wednesday, March 3rd, 2010

As you already know some exciting news just hours before the trade deadline. Ray Shero traded top prospect Luca Caputi and defenseman Martin Skoula for left winger Alexei Ponikarovsky. He is commonly referred to by his teammates as “The Poni Express” , “The Ukraine Train” or simply “Poni”. We head over to PSAMP to get answer to a question thats on tip of everyones tongue: “Can Penguins and Ponies live in harmony?” His answer was … “Hey man they have on my blog for about 3 years now.”

On this note we continue. While Shero might still get some criticism on putting end to Luca Caputi rap album which was scheduled to be released just weeks before the trade, at the end of the day its what you get for your buck, right? So what do Pens get? When Ponikarovsky was heavily scouted in the January and weeks before the Olympics i have read some peoples opinions that stated Poni is going to be just another Ruslan Fedotenko. I can understand losing Skoula but is losing top prospect Luca Caputi for a rental Poni really worth it? Only time will tell. For now i’d like to compare the two players. Now Poni is Ukranian that much him and Tenk have in common. They both look cute when they were young…

Young Ruslan Fedotenko …

7 year old Alexei Ponikarovsky …

Lets look at the number comparisons:

Ruslan Fedotenko:

Age: 31
Date of birth: January 18, 1979
Place of birth: Kiev, USSR (now Ukraine)
Ht: 6-2 Wt: 195
Shoots: L
Salary: $ 1,800,000
NHL Seasons: 8

Alexei Ponikarovsky:

Age: 29
Date of birth: April 09, 1980
Place of birth: Kiev, USSR (now Ukraine)
Ht: 6-4 Wt: 220
Shoots: L
Salary: $ 2,500,000
NHL Seasons: 8

Pretty similar so far. Alexei definitely has the size advantage but how he is going to use it in front of the net is another question.

(more…)
