The D better do their job. Lol neito he's staying on the 4th line not moving.and Ludvig over ruhweedle
My wife hates this day😂
WOOO HOOO…….. it's a hockey night in Pittsburgh. For the litte time I've seen him I do like Jansen Harkins. He's got great energy. I hope he's a net positive? GO PENS!!!
Is it better for Sidney Crosby to go against the opposition's top line or their bottom?
Bedard will probably outscore Sid only because Sid is more of an assist guy.
But damn this is gonna be a matchup. Let's Go Pens!
Logan Cooley is a capital's fan. He's from Pittsburgh, got his equipment through Crosby's baby penguins, but he's a Washington capital's fan, not a penguins fan. So he does not deserve hometown love from Pittsburgh
What makes Bedard a "generational" talent? Maybe the meaning is less for me since it's been used so often over the last couple years, but I find it insulting to an actual generational talent (Crosby) that others get the label, without ever earning it.
Connor Bedard lead his WHL to a 5th place in the conference, and 11th overall, and lost in the 1st round. Compare that to Crosby's last season before the NHL, when he dragged a team of nobodies to a Memorial Cup win (if it was played in 59 other cities). Crosby has won everything, and Bedard has yet to win a playoff round. Maybe the kid will live up to the hype, but few do.
Bore-lansky looks like the goofy kid on the MAD magazine, don't he?!? Thank GOD for Horwat, he's the guy that REALLY knows Hockey. Glad at least he'll be here for the new season.
