Ryan Whitney Practices with the Pens

“I don’t think I’m ready for the physical stuff – the one-on-ones and things like that – but just getting back into the timing of passing the puck at this speed and those types of things. It’s to start passing to guys, shooting the puck and getting flow. You have to get your timing back down. When you’re out there by yourself there’s no timing.” – Ryan Whitney

Scott Ferrall clip on NHL Network Online

You gotta love Scott Ferrall. This little clip is great…especially because he’s flippin’ out runnin’ around Manhattan with a fake Stanley Cup and a Penguins jersey on. If you don’t know who he is…then your losing out. He’s probably the second best thing about having Sirius satellite radio. He’s sports talk show rocks.

Pens Place Recchi on Waivers

The Wreckin’ ball is on his way out of town and it is kind of bittersweet for me.

When I was growing up and beginning to appreciate the game of hockey, Mark Recchi was a close second (to Mario Lemieux) on my list of favorite NHL players. I followed his career through the Philly – Montreal – Philly years; Hell I even bought Flyer’s and Canadien’s replica jerseys. He is a Hall of Famer in my book and I must say it sucks that he had to get “Leclaire’d” on his way out of town. Ultimately, the game has passed him by and he really had no place left on this young Penguins team. Tyler Kennedy kind of reminds me of Recchi a bit with the exception of the grittiness that Kennedy has shown so far. I can see him replacing him and becoming a staple of the Pens for years to come.

I hope another team picks Recchi up so that he isn’t forced into retirement….something tells me that Chicago or the Islanders may be where he ends up.

Pens Crush Thrashers

Nice quote by Crosby.

“Whether it’s a loss or a win, it’s all about how you play, and I think for the most part we were playing some good hockey, and we want to continue to do that,” Crosby said. “Sometimes you’ll play good hockey and lose so it’s nice to get rewarded.”
