Meet the new Janne...

Whenever Janne left I know the first thing that popped into everybodys mind, was "Shit, now i'll never hear pelimies at the Melon Arena..." , but the second thing everybody thought was... Man how are we gonna replace this undersized winger who excelled in the AHL... Well everybody I would like to Introduce you to.... Chris Bouque... Let's compare the two (AHL stats from last year)...



JanneChris Bourque
Age2723
Weight180180
Height5'11"5'08
Games Played7069
Goals3221
Assists5052
Points8273
PM3357


Anyways, now the discussion begins... Is this our new janne in the NHL? Do we bestow pelimies on him as his official theme song (yes we have that power)? Who will be fired as a result of him not getting enough opportunities?

On the plus side the Crapitals fans are really pissed off that we snagged him off waivers since he was a #2 pick and is relatively young... Suck it crapitals...

Kevin's take: Little Ray Ray might be a nice steal for the Pens, in an article I was reading it mentioned Little Ray Ray was going to make the Craps roster only if the could have moved Mike Nylander, when that didn't happen the Craps had no choice, they had to try sneak Ray Ray down. Sorry, didn't workout to well for them. I hope he receives a fair shot at making the big club...

Enshrined forever... (Robert Langdon UPDATE)



Woooo

UPDATE:
We recieved an email from Professor Robert Langdon (pictured above) and he did some analysis on the new panel of the cup and sent us over this...

Black and Gold highlights...

Cool to see some of the Pens in WBS jerseys...

Go back where you came from...

This is not a political blog, and i am not an overly political person. But the last couple days seeing the news coming out of Pittsburgh, all these jackass anarchists need to go back from where they came from. They act like the government is what is screwing up everything today, meanwhile they are out on the streets messing up OUR city... Seriously, if any of those people out there attacking the cops or breaking shit is from somewhere else, tell them to go wreck their own city, and if they are from pittsburgh, tell them to get hell out they aren't welcome here anymore... In conclusion, I vote we bring in Janne and his grenadier skills and have him go to town on these chumps...

Nothing more boring than preseason hockey...

Everybody is probably thinking that we here at PATP are having a Stanley Cup hangover, while all the other Pens bloggers out there are having a field day with pre-season... Kevin and I both agree that Pre-season hockey is the pits and we don't see any reason to try and get ourselves excited to recap every game since not only they are boring, but there are tons of other blogs that do it better than we could... Anyways, since it seems like the last wave of players have been sent down to WBS, we can finally jump on one of their bandwagons and criticize management for not calling them up... Any ideas who we will support this year?

It's a Penguin kinda night for AK Bars...

In his debut in the KHL Janne scored a goal in a 3-2 overtime win... The other two goals were contributed by former Pittsburgh Penguin Alexi Morozov...

Highlights....

The gravy train has left...

Tied 1-1 Janne shows the world what they missed out on...


Janne hits the ice...



Today at 11 AM EST Janne Pesonen hits the ice for the season opening game with the defending KHL champions AK Bars vs Lokomotiv.... The game will be streamed on the KHLs Website...

So yeah, we are back and we are ready for a new season to start up... Posts for the next week or two will be sparse (we are getting acclimated into football season), but once the Pens start up we'll be providing the same Overly Critical Analysis of the penguins season...

GO JANNE
