View From the Igloo: Pens Are Still Not Top Contenders
http://viewigloo.blogspot.com/2008/02/pens-are-still-not-top-contenders.html
View From the Igloo. Thursday, February 28, 2008. Pens Are Still Not Top Contenders. With the acquisition of Marian Hossa and Hal Gill, many are saying that the Pens are now one of the top teams to beat in the East. I disagree. There is no shut down defenseman on this team capable of taking another team’s top players. Though it is better than last year, it is still only an average corps. There is a single symbol that can sum up the Pens goaltending going into the playoffs:? I like Therrien as a person, b...

View From the Igloo. Wednesday, December 12, 2007. 1) A stay at home physical defenseman. We’ve been asking for one since Ulf Samuelsson left a decade ago and still have yet to get one outside of Brooks Orpik that is capable of hitting and actually covering people at one time. Sadly the next closest thing we have had is Jamie Pushor and Eric Cairns. Credit to Shero for going after Hannan though losing out, but I can’t figure out why he signed Sydor as a back up plan. 2) Bob Errey fired. Seriously, I̵...

View From the Igloo: Time to Deal Assets?
http://viewigloo.blogspot.com/2008/01/time-to-deal-assets.html
View From the Igloo. Thursday, January 3, 2008. Time to Deal Assets? For years the Penguins have horded their assets to rebuild a team that can no longer afford veterans. But now the time has come where I believe they can start dealing some of their assets, as in picks and prospects, in order to obtain established players. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pittsburgh, PA, United States. Just like any other hockey fan, I have my praises and gripes. Since my home team is the Penguins, they of course ...

View From the Igloo: May 2007
http://viewigloo.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
View From the Igloo. Wednesday, May 30, 2007. In a move that surprised absolutely no one, Sidney Crosby is to be named captain of the Penguins during a press conference. He has borken yet another record of being the youngest captain in NHL history right after he became it's youngest scoring leader. What can you say other than "it's about time". Links to this post. Friday, May 4, 2007. Crosby is #1 Most Influential Athelete in Time Magazine. And eighth over all amongst a list that included over 200 people.

View From the Igloo. Friday, July 20, 2007. We were told the Pens uniforms were only suppsoed to get minor alterations for the new Reebok Edge designs, but new designs that have been leaked since last night, as the team's reaction to the leaking, is suggesting that new uniforms are on the way. Also notice the underarms. What in gods name is going on over there? Of course with all things like this, we have to reserve judgment until we actually see the players wear these on the ice but still. Not to me...

View From the Igloo. Wednesday, November 14, 2007. Laraque IS Doing His Job. There has been some talk recently about how Georges Laraque has not done his job since he arrived in Pittsburgh protecting our star players who are still receiving cheap shots and thus is useless or not doing his job. I can’t disagree with this more. Yes Is it his only duty? If Laraque was so one dimensional, why give up Danial Carcillo and a 3rd for him? We could have had Todd Fedoruk or someone like him for nothing. ItR...

View From the Igloo: Pens Deadline Fallout
http://viewigloo.blogspot.com/2008/02/pens-deadline-fallout.html
View From the Igloo. Tuesday, February 26, 2008. The deadline has come and gone, and the Penguins made two deals in an attempt to bolster their roster. One wasn’t a big surprise, the other shocked the league and everyone did a double take. Hal Gill for a 2nd and 5th round pick. Marian Hossa and Pascal Dupuis for Colby Armstrong, Erik Christensen, Angelo Esposito and a 1st round pick. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Pittsburgh, PA, United States.

View From the Igloo: The Whitney Saga
http://viewigloo.blogspot.com/2008/02/whitney-saga.html
View From the Igloo. Friday, February 8, 2008. But that’s not the main point of this article. There has been quite a bit of buzz since Therrien’s call out about Whitney from the fans and media, two members in particular, and I want to address them. As opinionated as ever, the fans tend to have a wide range of emotions regarding the young blue liner, but there seem to be three that are prevalent. 1) The “I love Whitney” Crowd. 2) The “I Hate Whitney” Crowd. Now for the most part the Pittsburgh media has r...
