What are your thought on the Pittsburgh Penguins this season?

I have only been on MyLot for about two weeks, so I know I am a little late on this. I live in Pgh and love the Pens. I think they have a good chance to do something in the playoffs this year. I had my doubts when Sid first went down, but they have held their own very well in his absence. Do you get to go to many games? I have a friend that has season tix 5 rows behind the net. Unfortunately, it is the one that the visitors shoot into twice, but when he can't go, he gives me the tickets. I took my 14 year old daughter to the Feb 2nd game. She loved it. It was her first and now she wants to go as much as possible. Pitt won with four goals in the third, led by the most awesome goal I have ever seen in person by Malkin. Can't wait till tomorrow and Sunday.

Ummm- Go Blackhawks! Sorry from Chicago here!

i cannot get into hockey at all...i had a roommate in college who loved the penguins so much, i think it really drove us apart because i just couldn't get into watching the game with her or talking about hockey only. I saw their blue shirts the other night, i really didn't like them. pittsburgh's black and gold, why confuze everybody? We were at a pizza place Saturday night...everyone there voted the penguins game off in favor of watching the patriots game. crosby seems like a nice guy from what i hear of people who have met him, but not sure about his stats as a player
