Thu, 31 Dec 2009 16:38:37 +0000 http://www.2manadvantage.com/?p=2728#comment-30749 hahaha, I was totally thinking about Patrik Stefan as Langs went in on the empty net. :D Awesome night at the Rock. :) And I'm not worried about Elias. He and Rolston will get hot again by the time Pajfors hits another rut (if they hit one). Hopefully by April our top two lines go on a roll at the same time, or at least that any slumps will be really short.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('30749','L.K.'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('30749','L.K.','hahaha, I was totally thinking about Patrik Stefan as Langs went in on the empty net. :D\r\n\r\nAwesome night at the Rock. :) And I\'m not worried about Elias.

The Pens managed 1 shot on goal on a power play with an empty net and all their stars on the ice. The rebound was sitting in front of Brodeur and somehow the Devs managed to outman the Pens down low and clear the puck. They also blocked 3 or 4 shots from the perimeter and Langs scored an empty netter (which is always impossible for him when he's outside the faceoff dots. Fun stats: 1) The Devs are 20-0 when leading after 2 periods. 2) Even better, they're 13-0 when leading after the first. This is the team that has had trouble keeping their leads in the final minutes of regulation in previous years with a coach who shall not be named who is now coaching a team that appears to be middle of the pack even with 5 all-stars.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('30747','Aaron'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('30747','Aaron','I\'m surprised the last 1:30 of regulation didn\'t make your \"Good\" list.

This is the team that has had trouble keeping their leads in the final minutes of regulation in previous years with a coach who shall not be named who is now coaching a team that appears to be middle of the pack even with 5 all-stars.

Pete was kinda distracted tonight...but it's so different and no other section in sports has a guy like Pete... the noobies always love it... it is quite a sight! Least Peters admitted his fail... I hope it's just a blip with Clarkson.... The Elias thing worries me because he'll be dumb and play in the damn Olympics too and make whatever it is worse.... It is amazing that not only does this team have injuries up the yang, but Elias, Rolston and Langs are playing like dung and they only lost three games in the month...it's quite impressive!<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('30746','Scott Mackie'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('30746','Scott Mackie','I actually really thought the whole coach purse drama stuff was hilarity, but that was just me....
