Comedy IRONy out of Pittsburgh

[sbb122]

If ex goaltenders that ruined franchises as inept GMs interest you, Garth Snow is available…

The Penguins have had 11 GM’s since entering the league and 5 have been ex NHL goalies so the possibility exists lol

Hope you enjoyed it. 8-5 will be the high mark of the Pirates season.

However, despite the setback, Carter told reporters, including Matt Vensel of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, that he intends to play next season instead of retiring.

Yeah, I know the Penguins are stuck with his contract no matter what but come on!

They shouldn't have let him leave in the first place, but instead lets hire Burke and Hextall.

I get the fact it is cool after being drafted in 2010 and finally get your first call-up at the age of 34.

But with that being said they could be 50 games over .500 and I still would not spend one penny on tickets while Bob Nutting still owns the team.

Don't hold your breath for the Pirates still being the big story in baseball. I can see them going on a long losing streak.
Their pitching staff is based off some guys playing well over their heads and a few old guys who are held together by gum and silly putty.
