Yashamaga 07-22-2005 04:32 PM

wow

Crosby-Lemieux-(Kovalev?)

that line will dominate the whole league.

Adder 07-22-2005 04:54 PM

<h1>WTF</h1>

I thought they were doing a live draft, lottery balls and all on Saturday. This is bullshit. Way to completely miss the boat on this one, NHL.

I'm seriously pissed off about this.

Adder 07-22-2005 04:56 PM

PS, they've (Pittsburg) simply got the #1 pick, they haven't chose him yet. The order has been determined.

What a bunch of bullshit. :nono:

They did at 4 pm today. My Leafs got 21 and the hated Senators moved all the way up to 9th :rant:

Y2Ant 07-22-2005 05:11 PM

Supreme Olajuwon 07-22-2005 05:12 PM

Relax, Adder, they did the lottery. It just so happens the worst team got the first pick.

Yashamaga 07-22-2005 06:19 PM

BTW I said Kovalev because it's a strong rumor he will go to the Pens

and even if he's not there, Recchi or Malkin are just fine

Kapoutman 07-22-2005 06:25 PM

YES. Montreal got 5th. Not bad.

AMAZING.

The system not only managed to sort of work (despite still being a stupid system) but the pick went to the team I've loved and adored all my hockey watching life.

Skippord 07-23-2005 03:36 AM

Nah it's all about the B's.

I was just excited that the Rags or the Habs didn't get him.

and I've been a fan of Crosby for 2 years and as a diehard hockey fan, I can't wait to see what him and Mario do together.

MVP 07-23-2005 07:11 PM

Boston at 22 :( :nono:

You broke my heart now :'(

The Pens have said that with the new CBA, they will now be "buyers" on the free agent market, and will no longer be selling off players such as Jagr, Kovalev, Straka, etc.

It will be very interesting to see if Kovy and some skilled vets sign with Pittsburgh. If they add a couple forwards such as Kovalev, and just develop some defensive skill / sign a couple quality defensemen, that team could instantly jump into a potential cup contender. At the very least, if Eddie O can coach the team reasonably well, they should be able to return to the post-season.

I still think that Mario can become the oldest Art Ross winner. He should have had it a couple years ago before he was injured / lost Kovalev.

The Penguins sold scores of season-ticket packages Friday night to fans from 10 states and Canada, even though ticket-buyers had to wait 45 minutes on hold just to get an operator.

Other phones are ringing, too. With hundreds of players about to be dumped on the free agent market Aug. 1, some had their agents call general manager Craig Patrick.
Crosby's gonna be the best thing to happen to the Pens since Lemieux himself. Gonna rockkkkk <3

MoRcHeEbA 07-24-2005 02:23 AM

way to point out the obvious captain smartypants.

road doggy dogg 07-24-2005 02:24 AM

ejilculate

Zen v.W.o. 07-24-2005 02:46 AM

My question is this though..the Pens already had Mario, and they had fucking Jagr..and a ton of other stars at one time. How come they are struggling at times with attendance then? It's like fuck, you've got Jagr, and to be honest, Crosby wont be as good as Jagr.
But still, nice to see the Pens franchise improving again, and hopefully now the fans can stay on board knowing they wont always be losing a bunch of players as well.

Supreme Olajuwon 07-24-2005 04:30 AM

watch this kid be the biggest bust ever

Y2Ant 07-24-2005 12:49 PM

Lemieux was picked first exactly 20 years ago, and Sidney Crosby's dad was picked like 285th by Montreal, and he was a goaltender, and Lemieux scored past him :cool:
