Yeah well... Mario is my childhood hero and I'm glad to see he still has something left. With that said, at times he looks like a mere shadow of his former self out there. Guess the time off will do that huh? I hope he shakes off the rust soon.
Does it seem to you that Sidney is the best player out there every game?
It does to me. It doesn't even look like anyone else can play with this kid, he's so good.
This team needs to start shooting and stop looking like a circus. They need to stop worrying about Lemieux since there is so much talent on this team now. A lot of times, it looks like an all-star game with these guys, which ISN'T good. They need to take the shots, fight in front of the net for the rebounds and put the puck in the net. As the old cliche goes, you miss 100% of the shots you never take.
I think it'll come together over the next 10 games.

Crosby is a hooking penalty waiting to happen... noone can skate with him, and they have to grab and hold him.
I think he is for real...

They won two games!!!
EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (AP) -- The Pittsburgh Penguins doubled their season win total, got their first overtime victory and had a strong start to their longest road trip of the season.
Sergei Gonchar's goal 1:01 into overtime lifted Pittsburgh over the New Jersey Devils 4-3 Tuesday night for the Penguins' second win -- the first in overtime in six games. Four of the previous five had been decided in the extra period and one in a shootout.
"When you have one win, you need them all," Penguins owner-captain Mario Lemieux said.
Pittsburgh, opening a five-game, nine-day road trip, dominated for most of the game and led 3-1 on Maxime Talbot's short-handed goal with 16:54 left. But the Devils (6-5-1) tied it on goals by Brian Gionta and Erik Rasmussen, with Rasmussen's coming with 2:12 remaining.
That set the stage for Gonchar, who took the puck inside his own blue line and meandered through the Devils defense, hesitating at one point before his backhander from in close trickled under goalie Scott Clemmensen.
