Yinzers,
The Igloo Club 222 is heading toward the Heart of the Southeast.....Atlanta, we are adventuring on our Yearly Homage to watch the Penguins play the Thrashers. We Are( I AM ) Excited!
There is alot riding on this upcoming trip not only for the Penguins but for the peeps of the Igloo Club. For the Penguins , they have to win the remaining two games of the Regular Season vs the Islanders( tonight at 7pm) and Sunday in Atlanta vs the Thrashers. Now with those 4 points the Penguins would surpass the Philadelphia Flyers to Overtake and win the Atlantic Division. This would be an unbelievable feat and you understand what the Penguins have gone through since the Winter Classic. Without Geno and Sid the Penguins have done the unthinkable and found multiple ways to win game after game. As the Season has progressed I have come to the conclusion that this team right now even though they are not polished are a serious contender in the playoffs.
Now there is considerable speculation about how far the pens can go in these playoffs. Who cares. As long as they show up and Fluery gives it more than he ever has, our defense will hold us in really tight games and there should be some exciting times. Exciting times meaning= whom the hell is going to score on a regular basis. whew.
In all seriousness it is any ones game, I have not been impressed with any team out there- hell the Black hawks whom won the whole thing are struggling at the 8th seed to get into the playoffs.
All i have to say is Lets Go Pens!
Now for the important part. Since the Igloo Club was formed a little over a year and a Half ago- we have never seen one of our teams win . ....Ever. We are currently 0-2 with the penguins and 0-3 with the Gamecocks. So this has to change. This is a big game for us as a group because as the Igloo Club gets another year older the Members become more and more involved,I have to say it one more time but Pittsburgh Sports is allot more than sports, it gives you life long friendships and memories that you can never put a price on!
( get ready for secret handshakes and Hot-Lanta)Lets go PENS!
