Tomorrow we welcome the Blues into our home for the only time this regular season.
The Blues are one of those teams just to the left of our radar. We don't exactly understand them, only have a vague feeling of acceptance towards them as a team because they haven't done anything to offend us and we think we remember hearing good things about them at last year's Christmas party or something. Other than mentioning "Oh, hey, Berglund is pretty okay and now they have Conks" we don't know what we would ever have to say about them. We wish we cared more, but we don't.
That being said, we hope to crush their souls tomorrow night.
Then we can go back to forgetting about them for 90% of the season, only perking up ears at the trade deadline and if something exciting happens to their team or their arena catches fire after a freak accident involving a Dodge Neon full of combustibles and a Dany Heatley road trip.
More importantly, a certain stud is back on the ice.

Oh, and Max Talbot has returned, too.
Listen to his words of wisdom here for a moment while we drink heavily to celebrate his return.
Oh, and in case you thought anyone behind the scenes at the NHL was getting any more intelligent, we bring you yet another fan poll.

Yes. We are cursed.
Lols.
Everything is a lot less offensive and a lot more hilarious when the Stanley Cup is still warm from having your name engraved on it.
Suck us.
Go Pens.

Ok, I totally peed myself when I saw the green pepper but I must have missed the original story.
Somebody fill me in. PLEASE!
LOL!
@Phoenix: Under the hall of fame section, you shall find this.
lols and suck us is about the same reaction I had as well.
No worries! All is explained in this post. Pepper is best enjoyed with Bacardi and Diet, IMO. My personal favorite is the Nabokov pepper butt fiesta.
"Suck us" says it all. I'm so glad Max is back.
PEPPER!!!!!
I have seriously missed the pepper. The pepper and Blingees. We need an excuse to make more Blingees!
max said mid-december. hmmm what game is december 15 at mellon? flyerrrrsssss. max wants it. just like the snake in the cobra scorpian whiskey.
So glad I asked for the history lesson. Thx to JSt11 & Mullets.
I was still laughing from Geno and Gonch's Heavenly Peppers when I got to Pepper Booger! Blew a snot rocket of my own after that one.
A classic!!!
Go Pens! Pepper the Blues!
@utterfrivolity:
Max's semi-return is a good excuse for a Blingee.
All I think of with the Blues is, "Thanks for giving us McKee and paying part of his salary!" Hope the guys don't get complacent tonight. After the beatdown the Sharks gave the Rangers last night--and that last period was such a beautiful thing to watch after Heroes--the Pens are in position to be on top of the standings after tonight, knock on wood.
Max Talbot almost makes me want a red Penguins jersey of my very own, until I remember that I look horrible in red. TP, he'd probably appreciate the Blingee, but think it's a little plain. ;-)
Nice use of the "pepper" feature! All I could think of with the Geno and Gonch ones is that Russians sure do love green peppers. (I can say that--I married and cook for one of them.)
Can't believe anyone's still talking about a Prince of Wales curse. I have a mental image of the person responsible for coming up with poll subjects at NHL.com now. It isn't flattering.
@TP- You consistently prove yourself to be the world champion of blingees. You should offer lessons. Srsly.
Kim, thanks for the complement. I take pride in my Blingees.
@TP - That is beautiful. The attention to detail is fantastic. Max needs those pants.
Gonch out with a broken wrist, apparently. FUCK.
TP, you are a Blingee Jesus.
Holy shit Mullets, we posted at the exact time. Freaking weird.
Pens woulda won the cup if Sid hadn't touched the trophy.
The peppers thing cracks me up every time. A few weeks ago, my mom made stuffed peppers for dinner and yeah it reminded me of that post. Lordy, I'm a dork.
Now as for Talbot's possible return, all I can say is "sha-wing!"
However I must admit that I laughed a bit when he said "I can't have contact right now." Yes, my mind was in the gutter when I heard that! I hope no contact doesn't mean that kind of contact, if it does, that's a damn shame.
@Annie S - Are you sure he's out with a broken wrist? I've been trying to google this and can't find anything aside that he's going to be out for awhile and that Coach Dan won't say what or how bad the injury is.
