So, like Bob, Bob and Tom?

Remember when you knew exactly where a stadium or arena was just by the name? I miss those days.

It had another name before, which I can't recall, but there's an amphitheater in West Palm Beach that has had at least a dozen names. The only one I know is the first one: "Coral Sky". I asked once what BB&T stood for. Blank looks-and this was in one of their banks.

Always thought the one in Philly had an appropriate name...the First Union Center...aka the FU Centre. Only in Philly...

Buddy has seasons tickets to the Leafs. Last we spoke about it, his pair of end reds were costing him roughly $30K Cad per season, plus an additional $20K+ Cad for playoffs. He runs his own business, so they are a company expense, but that's a lot of coin to spend, so you can spend an additional $40 for two beers! Let's not talk about food or parking!

That's because he used all of his saves up against the Leafs...who once again showed that they have problems playing against big heavy teams....and in the playoffs that is not going to work in their favour.

I poke fun from the throne in my glass house as the Pens are getting shelled by San Jose, at home of course.

Well, about the results I expected. At least The Brat got to see the game.

Let's see...Coach Reirden, Niskanen, Orpik, and now Hagelin. Washington is becoming a stopping point for ex-Penguins.

Hagelin is a great PK guy, but not much else anymore. Won't hit anybody, won't dig in the corners, won't crash the net. As one journalist put it, he'll score one goal every financial quarter. Sounds about right. :D

I'm still ticked at Niskanen. He came over from Dallas as an unknown throw-in. But due to the Pens' strong power play, he has one big season under that system, then bolts for the big money to our rival. But I'm not bitter. Nope, not one bit. Hmmph. :bored:
