okay inspired by @yabagofmalk I'm going to attempt to take the pens' numbers on my Spotify Wrapped and find a way to connect the song to the player.

we open with:

#87: Admit Defeat by Bastille

the universe has decided to make a mockery of sid with this song choice. ostensibly this song is about the futility of resisting your feelings for someone and needing to accept them, strong and inevitable as they are.

I admit defeat Won't be thinking 'bout anything at all tonight but...

that lyric ends with "you." but sidney crosby, oh no, he knows the real way the lyrics end. the way they SHOULD end: Won't be thinking 'bout anything at all tonight but... the crushing bitter taste of defeat. you think a song will get him to admit defeat? no. he bends the world to his will. he will swallow nothing. he will bend the very fabric of time to change the lyrics of this song. as we speak he's accosting dan smith in his recording studio and demanding he learns a more effective way to engineer sucess.

#71: СВБТ (Сатана всегда будет с тобой) by ЛЮТИК

once again the universe intervenes and gifts geno with a russian song. good. you think he's going to pay attention to english lyrics? as if.

this song is, however, about how satan is always watching you and you're doomed no matter what you do, so... much like geno, we get a nice peppy beat but he's only going to speak to the media when they team is playing like shit and someone needs to take the fall. go on, call him lucifer, he likes the drama of it all.

#58: GOD COMPLEX by Pkch

well. here. no lyrics, but a booming bass sensation that tickles the ears with plucky fun sounds. much like kris, this song spends most of its career shirking anything too serious and prefers a "no thanks" communication style, but it's charming and pretty-sounding so you'll let it slide. also it's called god complex; for a guy who's got a sense of pride, I think that's rather fitting.

#59: Kalahari Down by Orville Peck

You’ve been gone away, I’ve been riding around Running out the days, writing out a song On my daddy’s guitar Did you find your way? Skip another town? Said I couldn’t stay but it’s different now

correct, jake. your father, sidney crosby, let you borrow his "guitar" (puck, once, at practice) and then you unknowingly signed a contract to stay in pittsburgh for eternity to be sid's bestest, favoritest winger. congrats. you aren't skipping town. you signed your soul away and now you're sid's favorite child. welcome.

#8: Good As It Gets by Little Hurt

the first two lines of this song are as follows:

I'm not who I used to be I wouldn't know that guy if he was standing in front of me

need I say more? I needn't. sorry, dumo. tough luck but the crystal ball (spotify) doesn't lie.

#17: Dangerous by Set It Off

This is really my night, gonna take it right now Yeah, I'm feelin' like a Mack truck goin' downhill The people on the sidelines screaming "Slow down" But you can't kill my vibe

yeah, rusty, we're asking you to slow down because despite your enthusiasm, you are horrifyingly streaky and are also kind of compromising geno's line right now. if embodying a truck will get you your mojo back, then, please, by all means, go forth and drive, buster.

#16: Line Of Sight by ODESZA

jason's curse of being perpetually flung about the ice like a rag doll (due to his style of play, his incessant need to be a pest, and his OVERWHELMINGLY "ferda" personality) is Known to the almight Spotify:

I turn full circle round and round So will you help me down (help me down) Come grab my hand for solid ground

he does need a hand to help him off the ice every time he's been flung to it by his own enthusiasm and another player. someone help him out, please, he can't keep getting injured.

#35: About Love by MARINA

"I don't really know a lot about love", this song proclaims.

for dear tristan, we can shorten it:

"I don't really know a lot," period. or, if you desire: "I don't really know a lot about icing." maybe one day he'll figure it out. he's loved regardless.

if you write fanfic, then listen up!

that is all, please respect all POC because they don’t deserve to be ignored. please don’t be ignorant, thank youuu

mmm also! please think of gn!reader fics. it’s so hard to find shit, esp with the severe lack of male!reader fics. so please, sincerely, let people read content that pertains to them. and when someone puts “S/O” in a request. don’t make it a fem!reader >:(

(edit: PARDON? where tf did y’all come from? thanks tho <3)

(edit 2: me to everyone on this post 🥰)

[idontlikeem]

alright so.

that was not fun at all.

my thoughts:

-it's probably a concussion. if it was just a broken nose or something we likely would have known already in the postgame. not for sure of course because sully doesn't share stuff like that always but. 'still being evaluated'. brace yourself for it being a concussion.

-the team completely melted down after sid left and couldn't get it back even with jake's goal to even it back up to 3. if he's out in the next game, that won't happen; they'll be prepared and ready to go. no shock factor.

-geno has to be better. HAS to. it has to be up to him on friday if sid's out, and he needs to elevate his game and keep his cool. he was doing great things during the first half of the game defensively, he needs to keep doing that + make room for jake and rusty to score. he can't let himself get goaded into taking penalties on friday like he just did tonight. i understand it, but it can't happen again. he needs to elevate, put the team on his back, and end it in pittsburgh to give them as much time to rest as possible.

-this game right here is why the minute jarry is ready you put him in. louis has been great, he's held the fort, but he's not a starter and this is why. there's a good chance that with a sharp, on-his-game tristan in net tonight, we get out of that onslaught either tied or still with a one-goal lead (hell, maybe two!). and i bet he stops that goal while we were on the PK as well. the team melting down (and that was a FULL meltdown, full and complete, make no mistake) in front of him exposed him for what he is, and it's not good enough to steal a game in that situation.

-IMO we have to close this out on friday. home ice, home crowd, righteous anger, and if geno can leash the careless part of his play and elevate his game like he's capable of on that top line...we have a chance to put this away. i worry, though, about bringing it back to MSG for a game seven.

-if this series doesn't go our way, it means we pushed it to 7 games missing both our real goalies, two top six wingers, a top four defenseman, and the literal best player in the entire world at various parts. that is stunning amounts of adversity and they had to resort to literally hitting to injure to take us out regardless. that's a good showing. it's something to be encouraged by, and proud of.

we still have the lead in the series. it can be ours on friday if they come out right away and play hard and fast the full 60 minutes. we've broken them before, we can do it again.

let's go penguins 🐧

[malk1ns]

for this ask:

:)

Geno likes the new winger.

Sid's glad. Of course he's glad, obviously he's glad, the front office brought Ricky over specifically for Geno to play with, so the fact that it's working out, that they're clicking on the ice as well as off, is good—for the team, and for Geno too, who's been getting frustrated all season with the rotating cast of characters on his wing, none of whom have been quite able to play up to the high bar he sets.

That's changed now, with Ricky who can pull Geno's pretty passes out of midair and turn them into goals as if by magic. Sid sometimes feels like he's watching the ghost of James Neal when they're out on the ice together.

James Neal, though, is an alpha, and for all he and Geno were closer than close, Nealer had never looked up at Geno through his lashes and pouted at him, like Ricky does at every opportunity. Even when Sid is right there.

It took Sid a while to figure out what was going on. For years, it's always been Geno who got teased for being jealous, for keeping Sid to himself, for snapping at anyone who looks too long or moves too close, and Sid who always tolerated his desire for monogamy with patience and a smile. Sid's never felt jealous in his life.

Now, though?

Geno likes Ricky, in a way that he's never liked anyone, not since...

Well. Not since he started going after Sid with intent.

Sid might deserve it, after how long he kept Geno dangling in those early days, but watching Geno track Ricky's mostly-naked progress across the change room and saying nothing takes a level of willpower that Sid hadn't been sure he possessed.

He's the captain, though, and it's his job to keep the team ticking along smoothly, so he puts his game face on and checks in with Ricky, making sure he's getting comfortable with the team and the city, offering help if he needs it.

He's been doing a pretty good job, he thought, until Jarry stops him after practice one day, when they're all heading out to their cars. Geno has Ricky tucked under an arm and is gesturing expansively with the other, telling some no doubt exaggerated story about some of the traveling he'd (they'd, Sid had been there too) done last summer, and Sid is walking a bit behind them when Tristan tugs him to a stop.

Sid obliges, waiting patiently while Tristan snaps at Kris that he's fine, he doesn't need to be walked to his car, seriously Tanger, just go, I need to talk to Sid, not you.

Finally, Kris slinks off to the parking lot, and Tristan turns back to Sid, rolling his eyes expressively.

"Still giving him a hard time, eh," Sid observes, amused. Tanger's lovelorn pining gets worse each time Tristan shoots him down.

Tristan flattens his mouth. "I should be asking you that," he says, smoothing his skirt down and crossing his arms over his chest.

Sid blinks. "Sorry, is Kris upset with me about something?" He hadn't noticed, but he's been a little distracted recently, focusing on making sure the team's chemistry was still balanced, and—

"Not Kris," Tristan sighs, rolling his eyes again. "The new guy. Ricky. You look like you're about to rip his head off with your teeth whenever you're talking to him. I think he's scared of you."

"What!" Sid squawks. "I've— No way. I check in with him all the time. He's not scared of me."

"And the fact that every time you check in with him is immediately after he's said something that makes Geno laugh is a total coincidence, I guess?" Tristan's voice is drier than the rink air.

Sid cringes.

"Yeah, that's what I thought. Look, I get it, I've seen how Geno looks at him too—but you've gotta lighten up. It'll affect his play, if he thinks the captain is pissed at him."

Sighing, Sid leans back against the wall. "You're right. Fuck. I just..." He runs a hand down his face. "I feel like. I tease G so much for acting jealous, and now..."

Tristan shrugs. "Yeah, I can't help you with that part, sorry Cap. But look, G's obsessed with you, right—he's distracted by a shiny new toy right now, but it'll pass. Maybe he just needs a little reminder." He claps Sid's shoulder. "Chin up. Don't make me get Kris involved."

Sid watches as Tristan walks to the parking lot, skirt clinging to his ass. It really is a criminally tight outfit today; Sid can't really blame the way Tanger was hanging around with his tongue basically out of his mouth earlier.

And that gives Sid an idea.

---

He detours to the mall before he heads home, stashing the bag in his closet before Geno gets home from lunch with Max. Tomorrow's an off day, and they have plans to get lunch with a few of the guys.

Sid's never been into following along with the omega fashion trends. He doesn't have the body for a lot of them, first of all, and frankly he just can't be bothered. He's in suits and workout gear 70% of the time, and jeans and shirts work just as well for the remainder. Geno knows this about him, so even though he'll occasionally beg for Sid to try the ultra low-rise jeans that had popular a few years ago, or the crop tops that came into fashion last season, he never pushes.

Which is what makes his reaction when Sid walks down the stairs in a flippy little miniskirt all the more gratifying.

"Sid," Geno breathes, clutching his car keys. He looks totally gobsmacked, eyes going dark and scent rising.

Sid smoothes his hands down the front of his thighs. "Do you like it?" he asks, keeping his voice steady. He's never worn anything like this, but the way Geno's looking at him, all focused alpha intent, he wonders if maybe he's been missing out this whole time.

"Do I like?" Geno growls, dropping his keys on the side table and stalking forward. "When you buy?"

Sid backs up until he hits the wall. "I picked it up yesterday," he says, breathless, watching Geno get closer, trapping him where he stands. "I thought, you know, I'd switch it up a little."

Geno rests his hands on Sid's hips. The skirt's material is so thin that the heat of his body bleeds through to Sid's skin right away. His fingers are digging into Sid's sides, and Sid can feel himself start to drip.

Geno slides his hands around to grope at Sid's ass over the skirt, messing with the fabric and pulling it up enough to get at the bare skin underneath. "Fuck," he swears, nosing down to Sid's neck and biting lightly. "How long until lunch?"

"We have to leave in fifteen minutes," Sid moans out, letting his head loll to the side and pushing up against the leg Geno's got wedged between his thighs.

"Good," Geno rumbles. "I take you to bed, eat you out, sit you on my dick. You not want to be late, you make me come fast. Then we get lunch."

"I won't have time to clean up after," Sid whines out, rocking his hips forward. The friction of Geno's jeans through the skirt feels unbelievable.

He feels Geno's smile on his neck. "No," Geno agrees. "You'll be at lunch with Jason and Jeff and Kris. Think they'll smell on you?"

"Oh god," Sid moans, letting Geno push him up the stairs.

1,5,14 for Isolde OC Ask Game 🌚❤

If you want ask me about Isolde Hiwatari, or any member of her family (Tadao, Amanda or Jacob), you see this list and ask me!

Well, come on. Thanks for ask me, @aleapple1216 (y sí, está largo):

1. What is your character’s reaction to a minor inconvenience? Such as getting their jumper caught on a door handle?

It's depend if she doesn't have others problems in her mind or her mood in this day. If is a good day, only she shrugs and repairs her sweater if it was damaged.

But, if she had a worse day, it would be the icing in the cake, and she isn't a good mood. Cursed herself, the door and the jumper and probably, Isolde could vent her anger in someone (it's the reason she usually isolates herself to avoid this action) if they ask her, but quickly she apologies with this person, explaining generally why she is in this mood (with her closest friends, she usually tells the reason and how she feels herself).

If you read "Cumpleaños" , you could see she was mad for Trelawney's "predictions" about her relationship with Talbott. She wouldn't reacted in that way if Isolde wouldn't have received Amanda's letter where Isa read her mother was going to Hogsmeade to visit her, but Hiwatari didn't want to meet Amanda.

5. Do they have any nicknames or pet names or other aliases?

You know some of them, when you asked me if Talbott and Isolde have nicknames do they call each to other. And I have a other publish (here). But actually I added some news and the last publish I responded in Spanish. Thus, I write here again:

When she started to study in Hogwarts, many students called her “Monster Hiwatari”, “Cursed Child/Girl”, “Nightmare Hiwatari”, because Jacob’s actions. Since she was in third year, the people started to call her "Curse-Breaker"; and in her seventh year, "Heroine of Hogwarts". All of them doesn't like, the first four for obvious reasons; the two last, because she feels uncomfortable with them. She thinks she isn't any of them, because she only broke the curses for find Jacob and protect her friends, not for she wanted to do or for the glory to save everyone.

------

Her paternal grandparents, Tadao, Rowan and Talbott called her (and sometimes I do, too) "Isa". Tetsuo and Sac-Nicté called with the Spanish variant of her name, Isolda, too.

------

Tadao called her "My little princess/Mi princesita" and "Periquita". (The last because she spoke a lot when they were together and asked him about his job/about everything [estaba en la edad de los por qué]). Amanda only calls Isolde for her name.

------

Jacob calls her "Pip/Peque" (canon). Also he can use "Pitufina/Smurfette" (he teases her about her height, but he would say anything because he's 1.70m/5'7'') or "Mi hermanita chiquita bebé (My little baby sister)" .

------

Rowan used two: the first, she call Isolde her "Little sister". Their friendship development to sismance. (F for JC, in Isolde's history they were close). The second, since Isolde and Talbott are in a relationship, "Mrs. Winger" (In sixth year called them Mr. and Mrs. Winger, only for teased them, but really she though/wish/knew they'll be together).

------

Bill and Charlie: "Our Non-related-blood Sister" or "Our Honorary Weasley".

------

Talbott used them:

“My Little bird / Mi pequeña avecilla” , even Isolde thinks it doesn’t fit with her, because she is taller than Talbott when both are in their animagi form. (She’s a golden eagle, too. But the females are bigger than males). But really Talbott called her with it because she is shorter than him in their human form. And he's the only authorized to call her with some nickname related with her height.

“Princess Isolde”, because for the “Legend of the Tragic Love of Isolde and Tristan”. He usually puns her a little with it. But she responses, since they are in a relationship, Talbott is her Knight Tristan, but without the tragic love.

"My Mockingbird or My Nightingale/Mi Cenzontle o Mi Ruiseñor", because he loves to see her singing every song she likes (and she does very well).

-----

When she started to work in the Auror’s office in the Ministry of Magic, her codename is “Cuauhpilli” (Eagle warrior in náhuatl).

14. Are they a simple person to please or difficult?

Isolde is a simple person to please. She doesn't need that you give her luxury or expensive things, neither Isa isn't very exigent to go out in a expensives sites. She loves spend quality time with the people who is important for her, and if you gift something from the heart, she appreciates it.

-----

Finish! I hope you like. And sorry for the long post.

Adalia Untermann @maleliddell ​ ||

Scarlet Bianchi @immagrosscandy ​ ||

Charlotte Sorell @aleapple1216 ||

Crowen @tiny-chiro ||

FunFacts:

-> He's very popular, thanks to the fact that it is very easy for him to make friends.

-> when i say he just wants to be loved is that it's not hard to make him fall for anyone. (Also... Pansexual)

-> yep, in 6th - 7th grade he has his first real/official relationship with Tristan Winger, and that is an interesting story we'll talk about later.

-> He has lots of hairstlyes, but you'll never see him with short hair.

-> Even if he hates the fact that the Frey twins do and are bullies, something prevents him from not getting along well with them. He says that they can change, they are just kids looking for attention. Although he cant say the same for Cassandra, he just doesn't like her at all.

Past story:

> He lives on the land of Svolvær where it is always winter with nice people near the lake.

> The town remained traditional and cultured for a long time, when his grandfather was going to leave the position of chief to his son, he fled with his beloved, leaving his son

> Now being raised by his grandparents, Everard was supposed to, once he was old enough, be in charge of the town's affairs.

> His first strong manifestation of magic was at the age of 4 when he got lost in the woods following a cougar to fight with it 

> [When the cougar became aware of the presence of the child, it hid and went from being the prey to the hunter, keeping the curious child in its sights, when it was slowly approaching to attack it, Everard saw it and remained quietly in shock, not knowing what to do , apparently unconsciously he wanted to be a bear to defend himself and instead of that he seemed to call a real one, causing this bear to defend him from the cougar, when he won he passed by the boy ignoring him, for Everard it was incredible he would never forget that moment].

> After that he did tricks with the other children of the town, his grandmother who was the wise of the town said that his mother was a witch that Everard had inherited it from her.

> Everard was always an outgoing child who loved to get lost in the woods, he learned that he should always put others before himself, but he was not going to be embarrassed for that .

> Everard always came out to defend those who were given unfair treatment since childhood.

> That's why he used to get into several fights since he was little, Adults and Parents couldn't interfere in a fight because from there the value of each one was demonstrated, Fortunately Everard managed to win each one of them.

> When he received his letter from Hogwarts accompanied by Hagrid, his grandparents were not very in favor of letting Everard neglect his education and responsibilities with other kinds of people, but in the end, they accepted it.

> Everard very happy to know the outside world and discover why his parents had abandoned him in order to get out of that place, he understood them, the outside was incredibly wide and different, he got excited imagining that so many adventures await him.

Spicy Love!!

Everard tends to be quite impatient whenever he shares some time with Tristan. He just can't keep his hands still 🥰

Which players should the Penguins protect? Three Post-Gazette staffers play GM

MATT VENSEL

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

mvensel@post-gazette.com

JUL 15, 2021 5:18 AM

Ron Hextall has been mum about which Penguins he plans to protect in next Wednesday’s expansion draft. We have educated guesses but won’t officially find out until the weekend, after teams must formally submit their protected lists to the new Seattle Kraken and the rest of the league.

In the meantime, we decided we would steal Hextall’s comfy GM chair for a moment, kick back our feet, swivel around a little bit and share which players we would protect if Mario Lemieux was crazy enough to let us run the team.

Who’s we? Post-Gazette beat reporters Matt Vensel and Mike DeFabo and columnist Ron Cook, game-day regulars over at PPG Paints Arena.

We also projected which guy the Kraken would grab in each scenario.

All three over us opted to protect seven forwards, three defensemen and a goalie instead of eight overall skaters and a goalie. And while we all agreed on most of the players we would keep, there were a few differences. So we explained the rationale behind our personal protected lists.

Finally, these protected lists are somewhat based on the personal preferences of each of us. But there is some actual intel buried in here. So enjoy, let us know which of us is the smartest and feel free to share your lists, too.

Matt Vensel, Penguins beat reporter:

FORWARDS: Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Jake Guentzel, Bryan Rust, Brandon Tanev, Teddy Blueger and Kasperi Kapanen

The first four guys are no-brainers. Tanev and Blueger are quick calls for me, too. Tanev is a guy who can provide a spark on a random Tuesday in January and help you win playoff games in May. He is also integral to the team’s off-ice chemistry. Blueger has become an effective shutdown center and added 22 points in 43 games last season. The final forward spot comes down to Kapanen and Jeff Carter. Carter is the more useful player to Pittsburgh for 2021-22, especially with Malkin out indefinitely. But I’ll gamble that Seattle passes on the 36-year-old and I will instead keep Kapanen, an imperfect middle-six winger but a tradable asset.

DEFENSEMEN: Kris Letang, Brian Dumoulin and Cody Ceci

Letang and Dumoulin are the easy ones. And young blue-liners John Marino and Pierre-Olivier Joseph are exempt, so need to worry about protecting them. No one else is a priority. Mike Matheson had a nice first season here and fellow lefty Marcus Pettersson is well-rounded with perhaps a little more room to grow. Unfortunately, both have pricey, long-term deals that eat up too much cap room relative to their level of performance. Ceci is an unrestricted free agent but he is someone whom the Penguins should and will consider resigning. I’ll keep his rights, which could maybe be traded for a future asset if we can’t afford him.

GOALIE: Tristan Jarry

Protecting Jarry is not endorsing him as my No. 1 entering 2021-22. I just don’t want to be caught without a goalie when the record screeches on the offseason game of musical chairs. I still hope to bring in a veteran with some semblance of a playoff pedigree to push or potentially outright replace Jarry on the roster.

SEATTLE SELECTS…

Jared McCann. I crossed my fingers that Kraken GM Ron Francis would take one of these bigger cap hits off our books. But they pass on Matheson, Pettersson and winger Jason Zucker and roll the dice on McCann. The former first-rounder has speed, a wicked wrister, versatility and a reasonable $2.9 million salary. The Kraken hope that the 25-year-old finally puts it all together on his fourth NHL team.

Mike DeFabo, Penguins beat reporter:

FORWARDS: Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Jake Guentzel, Bryan Rust, Brandon Tanev, Kasperi Kapanen and Jeff Carter.

The Penguins might be willing to play a game of chicken with Seattle and assume the Kraken will not select a 36-year-old who has just one year remaining on his contract. In fact, I’d expect them to take this bet and leave Carter exposed. But if I’m playing GM? That’s too big of a gamble now that we know Evgeni Malkin underwent significant offseason knee surgery that will force him to miss the beginning of the season. Who knows when Malkin will actually return? Who knows how effective he’ll be at 35 with a wonky wheel and a disrupted offseason program? The Penguins need a reliable insurance policy. Carter is exactly that. Carter fit in seamlessly in the dressing room after he was acquired at the deadline and made his presence felt on the ice, too, scoring 13 goals in 20 games, including playoffs.

DEFENSEMEN: Kris Letang, Brian Dumoulin and Mike Matheson

There’s an argument to be made that the Penguins should leave both Pettersson and Matheson exposed and try to entice Seattle to take one of those long, expensive contracts off their hands. However, the way the Penguins’ speed-oriented system highlighted Matheson’s strengths makes him a player that I wouldn’t want to lose for nothing.

GOALIE: Tristan Jarry

Jarry’s postseason performance didn’t inspire a lot of confidence. But where will the Penguins be if Seattle selects their No. 1 netminder? I’d still try to add a goalie to challenge Jarry for starting time or possibly even supplant him. But knowing he’s on the roster gives the team more options and a safety net.

SEATTLE SELECTS…

Teddy Blueger. Give the 26-year-old center credit. He’s almost always the last player on the ice at practice, fine-tuning his game as he adds an offensive dimension to what’s already a consistent defensive game. But let’s not make him out to be more than he is. He’s still, more or less, a fourth-line center on a team filled with talented forwards. The Penguins would have a much-easier time replacing a fourth-line center than a second-line center like Carter.

Ron Cook, Post-Gazette columnist:

FORWARDS: Sidney Crosby, Evgeni Malkin, Jake Guentzel, Bryan Rust, Kasperi Kapanen, Brandon Tanev and Teddy Blueger

Only the final spot was difficult for me: Blueger or Jared McCann. I’m gambling the Kraken won’t take Jeff Carter at his advanced age even though he would be a perfect leader on a young team. It would be nice if Seattle would take Jason Zucker and his inflated salary off the Penguins’ hands, but that isn’t going to happen. I went with Blueger over McCann because he is more qualified as a center.

DEFENSEMEN: Kris Letang, Brian Dumoulin and Mike Matheson

The Penguins don’t have to worry about losing much on the blue line. Matheson and Marcus Pettersson are more than expendable because of their high salaries, but the Kraken won’t be interested in either player. It’s good that John Marino is exempt from this draft. I see him coming back next season and having a good year. Getting bigger and tougher on defense should be Ron Hextall’s No. 1 offseason priority. Opponents go virtually untouched in front of the Penguins’ net.

GOALIE: Tristan Jarry.

Penguins management insists it still believes in Jarry despite his playoff flameout. I wasn’t buying any of it until someone I trust in the organization told me that the coaches and players know the truth about Jarry – that he was injured late in the season, didn’t get to practice before the playoff series against the Islanders and lost his edge. I still have my doubts and want to see the team bring in a veteran goaltender to challenge Jarry for playing time. That wouldn’t be good news for Casey DeSmith, who is a solid No. 2 netminder. Who knows? DeSmith might have given the Penguins a better chance against the Islanders if he hadn’t been injured.

SEATTLE SELECTS…

McCann. Sadly. The Penguins won the NHL’s most rugged division last season so you know they are going to lose a good player in the expansion draft. That will be McCann. I will hate to see him go despite the fact he came up small in the postseason the past two years. I see him as a solid NHL player for many years.

"Well, umm-" Jeff was cut off.

"We're dating." Y/N continues.

Todd cheers and says, "Bruce, David, Scotty, you three owe me 10 bucks."

David, Scott & Bruce groan in usion, "Fuck!"

Y/N was confused, as was Jeff.

Pittsburgh Penguins' Sidney Crosby, Tristan Jarry, Rickard Rakell skate during optional practice; no word on Game 7 status

Sidney Crosby, who did not play in a Game 6 loss to the New York Rangers, skated with the Pittsburgh Penguins on Saturday, coach Mike Sullivan said.

Sources told ESPN on Friday that Crosby was held out of the 5-3 loss with a concussion. The Penguins have said only that he suffered an upper-body injury after taking a high hit from Rangers defenseman Jacob Trouba in Game 5 on Wednesday.

Crosby participated in the optional practice and did not wear a non-contact jersey, but Sullivan would not say if his star has been cleared for contact. Crosby also skated individually on Friday with skills coa
