Battle Of Pennsylvania? What is it?

OK so you'll see here so far there are a few penguins related posts here. The point of this site as it gets going is to bring on a few more Penguins & Flyers bloggers to blog about both teams and give you Pens and Flyers fans to comment on the posts.

I got this idea from some commenters on the Battle Of Ontario. I live in Ottawa (Up in Canada) so I don't get to see many Pens games live, have gone down to Philly to see some battle of Pennsylvania's. Trying to head down to see the game in Pittsburgh on the 18th against the Flyers.

If you are interested in contributing to the Battle of Pennsylvania send me an email at battleofpennsylvania@gmail.com I will also be scouring the web to see if I can find some guys/ladies to contribute.

The Monkey is off the Pens back!!

Didn't see all the game today so not a long post.

First off Crosby & Ovechkin go Pointless. Is this a big thing, yes it is for the Pens as they won! First time since the Crosby era started that Crosby didn't get a point and the Penguins won. Also first time since January 10th against Florida that he went Pointless. As for Ovechkin First time since December 30th.

The penguins need to shoot more. They had 20 shots total and one was on an Empty net. Not a good total. they'll need to pick that up. But I'm thinking they are taking it easy today so that they can save their energy for Montreal tomorrow.

Jordan Staal, has there been a better defensive 18 year old forward in NHL History. 49 Games, 16 goals, 6 assists, +10, 23.5% in shooting. I will admit I wouldn't have made any qualms if they had of sent him down at the start. It's tough to bring an 18 year old into the NHL and have him make the team. Staal has made the team and is leading the NHL in short handed scoring. This kid is the real deal. Shero, sign him to a DiPietro, along with Crosby, Malkin, & Fleury. Is that asking to much?
