PPG PAINTS ARENA – PITTSBURGH, PA
7:00 PM EST. NHLN-US, AT&T SPORTSNET
Since we last spoke I have spent many months in my laboratory curating the best and most correct hockey takes for our readers @pensblog. It’s such an exciting time for you, the reader, to not only have back our wonderful game, but to, once again, have these takes back in your life.
(Disclaimer: Please @G_Off817 with all complaints on takes)
The Penguins came out gunning and running in the opener taking what small amount of revenge you can get with a 7-6 OT victory on Thursday night. Meanwhile, the Habs lost a 3-2 tilt in OT to Toronto on Wednesday while also summarily reminding the NHL that that the leaves d is bad! (100% correct and verified).
At the beginning of each of these past few seasons it’s been easy to take for granted how lucky we are as Pens fans. The roster had what, 2 position battles? And one of those was backup goalie (hand wanks forever). I mean, just imagine being a fucking Sens fan….
Habs aren’t far behind though. Shea Weber is wearing the C now because literally everyone else is a shitstain save for the goalie.

They also traded, arguably, the teams most beloved player to an infinitely more fun team and got in return MOAR GRIT.
