The largest amphibious invasion in human history began in the dark.
At dawn on June 6, 1944, nearly 7,000 vessels carrying 160,000 Allied troops closed in on the beaches of Normandy.
Through courage and sacrifice, they secured a foothold in Nazi-occupied France and began the liberation of Western Europe.
Today, we honor the heroes of D-Day.
To the Flyers fans in my mentions, I have an interesting fact I just saw:
The Penguins and Flyers won the same amount of games in the second round of the playoffs.
Bayern Munich couldn't believe PSG weren't called for a handball on either of these plays.
The first one would have been a second yellow on Nuno Mendes as well.
I'm absolutely heartbroken.
It went from only Pittsburgh or retirement to willing to play for another team...
I swear if I see Evgeni Malkin wear any other jersey in the NHL I'll be very turned off from the league.
If this is the end of the Pens Big 3, what a run it’s been.

“COPE HARDERRRRR”
I’ve watched this core win the Stanley Cup three times.
More than your franchise has in its entire existence.
You just happened to beat the 39 year old version of them. Congrats, I guess.
