@AGretz @Pensburgh Further point in support of your article, when 81 complained about being on the 3rd line, that's when I'd say the team's effectiveness/depth was shot.

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@jmarshfof Still encouraging though, especially looking at the team's current options at LHD.

This matters not just because I always enjoyed Jen’s commentary but also because if you can see it you can believe it - women can be and should be in this space

@MarkMaddenX Hockey Hall of Fame for not putting in Melrose and other living legends (EJ!) for them to feel the appreciation they deserve while still alive? Baseball messed up with Parker.

Have you ever had the pleasure of hearing the voice of God, John Barbero, announcing the return or a goal from the Hockey God himself, Mario Lemieux? 🐐 🚨

I'd give my left nut just to hear this one more time live 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️

@jmarshfof found it. He ended with 35 points. Pretty good company

[ARAnalytics @ARAnalytics]

18-Year Olds Drafted Outside the Top 10 to play 70+ Games in the salary cap era and their point totals:

Patrice Bergeron (45OA) 39 P in 71 GP
Cole Sillinger (12OA) 31 P in 79 GP
Zach Benson (13OA) 30 P in 71 GP
Ryan O'Reilly (33OA) 26 P in 81 GP

Benjamin Kindel's Pace: 40 P in 79 GP

If he keeps this up, and especially if he keeps up his recent pace since going back home to Vancouver, he could have the greatest season for an 18-year old outside of the Top 10 of all time

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@jmarshfof I forget who tweeted it, but his comparables at his age in year one accomplishments were like ROR and Bergeron and someone else. Pretty nice company for him to be joining.

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@AGretz Me too. I'm year 2 of watching Premier league and trying to find a fun team to root for.

[Barn Hockey @BarnHockey]

The @Penguins have the most high end, upper-echelon Mount Rushmore of any franchise.

Not just in NHL Hockey history.
But in professional sports history.

@MarkMaddenX That's one of the biggest valid criticisms of his 19 yr reign: where is his coaching tree?

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@JoshYohe_PGH The 'ol SH fake forehand, wraparound backhand goal. Just unreal

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@billpeduto @PenguinsJesus Dan Hamhuis

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@JoshYohe_PGH I think Prisuta had a stat on Lemieux (and I'm sure Gretzky has something similar): that he had more 2 or more point games in his career than 0 or 1 point games. Unreal.

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@JoshYohe_PGH Hockey is only skewed because Montreal has 25% of the trophies when there was only 6 teams

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@AGretz They weren't contenders and they didn't need to make that trade

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@JoshYohe_PGH Strangely enough, I thought Mears did his best work when he was on the radio for the Penguins.

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@NHLFoley I think Ray Shero was unjustly criticized for his drafts and the Pens and Devils felt his impact years after he was fired

@NHL_Muse Dick Tarnstrom

[Tim Gagen @t_gagen]

@MarkMaddenX He got manhandled tonight. Boys amongst men playing the game tonight
