Crosby is a whiner with vagina issues

And would be nothing without Malkin.

i might have to agree with that but pittsburgh has always been my second team so crosby is always going to be one of my favorite players and i just naturally hate ovechkin.

Must you hate in order to love?

They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

Ovechkin really isn’t dirty. He’s an emotional sometimes reckless monster, but he hits a lot and rarely gets called for a bad hit. If he was trying to injure someone, at almost 240 and with a with amazing speed, he easily could.

That said Crosby is definitely a great player in his own right. Right now him and Gaborik seem to be true MVPs for their teams. Caps won both games without Ovie, but the Rangers struggle if Gaborik isn’t single handedly amazing and the Pens fall flat without Crosby.

But yes besides creating immense publicity for the NHL, single handedly bringing hockey back to DC, he’s done nothing for the league!

They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

What an awful game

The highlight of the night may have been taking highway 40 to the game. However, that “superfan” flashing his issue of Gameface to the camera, and the stormtroopers appearing at a bunch of exits at the end of the 2nd was amusing.

Nothing on the ice was even entertaining.
