belated WTWDS, more to follow

When we don't post every day, we get negative images of ourselves. So this is backdated again and we'll post something else again later to maintain the streak. I mean, we do this shit for you (you alcoholics and rabble-rousers).

Here, then, is why the week was fucking awesome:

1. We still know our way around a comeback. And that's a beautiful thing to behold. We wouldn't be defending champs without it, and the fact that we still got it is a promising sign.
Show 'em who's boss, Cappy. Atta boy.

2. While we're on the subject of the Blue Jackets, they beat Washington.
R.J. Umberger is a pretty good player for a traitor to his nation (i.e. Pittsburgh).
He should be cleansed of Philadelphia in another season or two.
Ovechkin also left that game with an injury and is day-to-day. If this is a sign of a down period for the Caps, we're all for that. Admittedly we probably hate the Caps a lot less than some Pens fans--they're honestly kind of pathetic as an organization--there are so many other teams that could be winning that division. Southeast = jokes.
Fuck Washington.
And wooo Columbus! We're already calling them making the playoffs again this year. Nice job, boys. Keep saying encouraging things to Stevey.

3. Max Talbot's obvious, sporadic Twitter updates keep us on our toes. The exclamation points really speak to us.

4. Baby Jesus wants us to be happy.

5. NHL.com continues to give us reasons to make fun of it. Found by clicking the "Crosby loves October 28" link in the fifth tab currently on NHL.com:
Yup. . .we know how to type URLs. Really, we do.

Congratulations to all of you for making it through this epically un-sucky week.
Like we said, more to follow.
Love,
PH Staff
