sickAnyway, since I haven't actually watched the full game, I don't have any comments and will instead talk about... Ryan Malone. No, really. I always thought that he's one of those guys who look older than they are, but I thought he was like... 23 and he's actually the age he looks. Oops. He has really grown on me! Well, as of early February, that is (I'm a little behind on the Pens games). He's like a Ryane Clowe type, which is a Scott Thornton type. :D
This is as a player, of course. All the Pens players that I like traumatize me to varying degrees. Malkin? Self-explanatory (weird note--neither of his parents are ugly). Tyler Kennedy? Resembles pig. Fleury? Horse mouth. Ryan Malone... okay, nothing physically wrong with him, but if I ever found myself face to face with him, I would have the Joe Thornton reaction, i.e. run away screaming.
I kind of wish I could just take the next month off to watch hockey. I actually managed to watch almost every game in some seasons but I was only working part-time then. Stupid growing up and stuff. And I haven't been this excited to watch the Red Wings play in six years. :P
As for the Pens... Malone's grown on me, too. I always liked him, but it's gotten serious. Boy's coming into his own.
I thought Malkin looked exactly like his mother, though. Er, well, like a big male thug version of his mother, anyway. But Kennedy really does have the piggiest of noses. (I like Fleury's horse mouth, though! Which I hadn't realized really was pretty horsey until just now. Alas!)
One of the Pens blogs said Kennedy looked like Chief Wiggum. lol
And your boy had a good night last night too! :)

I'm so proud. *sniffle*
Thank you!!! :D
Haha, Malkin is pretty ugly, but I don't know, there's something about how Shrek-y he looks and plays?? (... IDK I KINDA LIKE HIM ARGH)
I watched all four games last night and felt physically hung over. I'm only going to watch three tonight, see how it goes. In other news, I'm also probably never going to graduate college.
Oh, I love the way he plays. He's one of my favourite players to watch. His ugliness has kind of faded to... umm, yes, another species at this point. But people need to stop slashing him. I don't like the idea of ogre/human sex.
That was totally my experience my first full playoffs. When you look back later you will appreciate it though. :P
adghsdl I have to project a film tonight but I might bring along my laptop anyway and risk getting my balls handed to me? haha oh playoffs.
Hey! I know those guys from watching the WJC! They were a very smoochy bunch. Did you see all the kissing?
sobbing, I hate the internet. The part where Tavares is smoothing down Legein's fake stache and he looks like he's about to lose it in his pants, and John can't even take his eyes off him. Oh god, why. I've never seen these kids play in my life. This is wrong.
Here is the smooching, BTW:
I'm not concerned about the Sharks. I also missed the first two periods of the game, but I don't think that has anything to do with it.
I wish I could take time off just so I could watch the Eastern games. I feel like I know next to nothing about those teams.
Now they need to go to Calgary and win both of those games. Not liking the extra day between games, but hopefully the Sharks will keep their edge. *hops*
