So on the cab ride from the airport, the traffic headed downtown was so heavy, the driver peeled off and cut through suburban Montour and Stowe Township, where I saw a 7-11 with a sign stretched completely across the roof: "Sidney Crosby Big Gulp Collectors' Cup."
Nah, didn't tell him to pull over.
I did see two kids dive as they came out the door. Coincidence?

Two thoughts from the easy chair in the hotel:
Horrible finish for the Flyers, who couldn't hold on. But Montreal did not impress.
Colorado can still come back against Detroit in that series; they had just 21 shots.

I'll report on both Rangers and Pens from the AM skates, Make sure you swing by.
Thanks for the unsung hero choices, all good. Except for Mr. Who Cares, who didn't comprehend that the reference to Lupul was as a unsung hero for his Game 7 OT goal for Philly. Why I even bother.....
Memo: Ask the front office to start deleting more of the blockheads.

Almost forgot, I'll be taping an interview on Rangers-Pens with WFAN shortly that'll run sometime in the next few hours.
Sweet dreams all...

I think not.
Nice one, Zip.
And I saw a NY sportswriter once who wasn't a homer... but the local idiots ran him out of town when he suggested that championships could be won with hard work as opposed to buying them.
so the Penguins got Mario Lemieux and Sidney Crosby do to hard work did they?
LOL
Dude, your teams down 1-0... maybe you need to spend more money on players.
BtW, in 1994 you had the highest payroll in the league, You can't say that about the Pens EVER not even in the championship years.
The Rangers played in a league with only six teams and couldn't win a championship for 27 years, then the league was flooded with expansion teams and you still couldn't win a championship for another 27 years... you got nothing to brag about.
