But the Lightning are good. Struggled early this year but have found their stride recently. They will be a team to be watch as the playoffs get closer. I really like John Cooper as a coach.
One of the best 2-way players to ever play the game.
As per Gretzky and Lemieux.
I never had a problem with his game. It's his constant pissing and moaning to the refs that gets to me and just about every fan outside of Pittsburgh and Nova Scotia. He is a whiny bitch.
That gaslighting sounds like pure philly.
No knowledgeable hockey fan labels Sid as a whiner anymore.
That designation was removed many years ago. Before he won the second of three Cups (so far).
It's simply not true.
If you had actually watched any of his games and interviews you would know that.
I meet quite a few out of town fans at Pens games.
You certainly do not speak for them.
And not blowing Sid doesn't mean I don't know hockey. He gets calls that no one else gets. I hear all the time how strong of a skater he is but gets snipered a few times a game. I get it, it draws a penalty and part of the game but when you are babied by the NHL, it gets old.
Like I said, great talent but a whiny bitch.
You guys scream "Crosby sucks" at Super Bowl parades.
You have proven my point.
You represent the most despised fans in all of hockey.
With good reason.

Posting an article from some schmuck doesn't prove he isn't a whiner.
I remember these same fans that everyone hates giving Mario a standing ovation on his game back from cancer. We are an extremely tough fans base but respect people who play the game the right way. See Chase Utley. As great a talent as Sid is, he will never lose that reputation of being a whiner.

You called him every name in the book and mauled him. Spit on him. FACTS.
Eventually you had to acknowledge what everyone else had known for many years.
As for playing the game the right way, who is a better 200 foot player than Sidney the last few years?
Your fan base is neanderthal.
That will never change.
That is why nobody respects them.
Again, it's never been about talent. It's always been about him yapping and complaining.
I have been to plenty of hockey and football games and have seen really bad things. And they weren't in Philly. The reputation is warranted from past years but there are places that are just as bad, if not worse. I listened to the Chief fans boo them in the first quarter. That happens in Philly, we're assholes. Happens in KC and they are "concerned fans". You listen to players who play in Philly and then leave, they talk about respecting the fans. Every fan base has their assholes (look at the football board here).

You seem to have anger management issues. Blind hatred.
Perhaps you and Frank L could address your uncontrolled hatred with a psychiatrist.

They know how it will be taken in Philly. I don't see eye to eye with Frank on many things but there is hope for him yet if he hates Sid as much as I do.
