Two sides to the goalie thing: 1) No-name, unproven type goalies FEAST on the Pens. Seriously. It's weird. We have issues with back-ups quite often. OR 2) You may be setting that kid up for some serious mental issues. The Crosby Comeback as your first game? That said, if he wins it...big mental boost.

EDIT: But if it were up to me I wouldn't do it...so...yeah. Is the only other option Rick?

Dipietro is the only other option. Nabby has a groin injury & Montoya is out as well. They could call up Poulin, but Nilsson has outplayed him so far this season. That's why he got called up. This is Nilsson's first year in North America.

I just tried to access my ticket account through penguins.com to see what people are selling their tickets for. You can't get to the site cause traffic is so high.

Some people at work are telling me tix are going for 1000-1200 each. If i sold mine, my kid would kill me...

At the beginning of the season, I bought two games early in the year thinking it might line up with his return. Dallas on Nov. 11th, and Boston on Dec. 5th. Of course it fell between the two.

Enjoy it! When they hit the ice for the warm-ups the CEC is going to explode!!

Point out to your kid that that kinda money pays for next year's season tickets and that he needs to suck it up and deal.

Nice to see CBC airing his return,though the Flyers/Canes would have been my preference(sarcasm inserted)

nice to have Flyers game,Habs/Bruins rivalry and Crosby return to choose from tonight.
Most monday night NFL games have been crap,and should be put on the backburner.

How well do we think he'll play? I mean, he's certainly had plenty of time off, so I'm not concerned about conditioning and whatnot, but I doubt he'll be at his peak performance level tonight. How well do we think he'll do on a scale of Shelley to Gretzky?

Let's say a mid-model Forsberg. A lot of it depends on how the game flows. That'll determine the amount of minutes he gets, how he feels after a few shifts...I still think he'll be running on pure adrenaline and emotion, so he'll be scrappy and score a few points.
