Staal Moved to First Line

Blogger: Denson
Jeez, I guess slapping a $4 million/year price tag on your ass automatically makes you a 1st line winger now too huh? What a day for Staal. He'll be skating along side Crosby tonight as his "winger". Great, now he goes from missing wide open nets on the 3rd line to now playing with the best play maker in the game...wonder how many chances he's going to miss tonight.

Pens are in Nashville tonight, another place that has not been too friendly to them in the past. Winning tonight means nothing more than getting the Pens their first back to back wins since like 1999 or something. Losing this game puts this team right back to where they were a few days back, and we may be believing Mark Madden as the real "Super Genius" in the future if Therrien is indeed canned.

I actually think Staal will have a good game tonight, as he played extremely well against Atlanta...but then again, I could have a good game against Atlanta. Pens have to build off of the Atlanta game, problem is, their 3rd period was AWFUL and freshest in their minds. We'll see how they respond.

I'm gonna go with a 4-2 win tonight. Crosby eats shitty wingers for breakfast,and gives his left overs to Staal. Staal gets a gift goal tonight. Count it!
