Iggy to the Penguins - Ray Shero is GOD (GOD just got fired) Upd: Now rehired

It was my rugged Kerry Frasier hair cut. You can't hide that baby under a helmet.

Why would you try? You already had a gelmet.

I think 1 more game in like 3 weeks. I dont blame him for choosing the Pens. They are becoming the NHL version of the Miami Heat. Hell if I was Iggy I probably would have done the same. My only thought was he would have been welcomed into Boston as a GOD. In Pitt he is what the #3 or 4 stud?

He's not gonna be the #1 star, but Pittsburghers freaking love folk hero stories. Iggy is already loved more than most of the roster. His jersey is selling like hotcakes (and...I'm getting one.).

I've considered lifting my ban on NHL merchandise purchases this year just to get an Iginla jersey as well. Tempting.

Since this is probably the only year that he's with the Penguins, I may need one as well. I have the same ban for anything that the NHL makes a profit on this year, so I need to get creative. Maybe buy it on Ebay and select the "pay later" option on PayPal?

You know you want to guys....

I put (jokingly) on FB: "If anyone feels like buying me something for no apparent reason, I have a few ideas: Jarome Iginla jersey, please and thank you."

My Dad, bless him, posted "Will do." Now to figure out if he's joking or not...because I REALLY WANT ONE.

Funny enough, if Iggy goes back to Calgary, I want his Flames jersey too. Definitely needs to be part of my jersey collection.

As long as you don't go with one of those half-and-half jerseys. I'm embarrassed looking at them.

Do you think Ray Shero will be mad that I'm going to a bbq place tonight?

Careful now...he may trade you to Siberia for a pot of gold or something. And don't say he can't do it. He's Shero...he'll do it.

Kenny Agostino scored the opening goal and just assisted on the GWG in OT to eliminate Minnesota from the NCAA tourney.

I was just watching that! 9 seconds in? Beautiful turnover, terrible puck handling on that Minny d-man's part.

EDIT: Now the announcers are saying 6 seconds.

Long thread. I apologize if this has already been mentioned. Apparently, Iggy is having trouble securing a Visa and may not yet be available to the Pens for Saturdays game. His Pens debut is probably more likely Tuesday against Buffalo.

As long as he's healthy, I don't care when he plays in the regular season.

Ryan Miller is hoping he won't be starting...maybe they should try Iggy on Sid's line to start the game just for fun, hah.

I'm okay if he misses tomorrow's game (likely) to get a few practices in...and, you know, I'll be able to watch.

 

[DChero]

Loving the avi, Dash!

Pix - I'm with you. I also like that it gives Morrow a few more minutes to get acclimated into the Penguins system during the game. Once Iggy gets out there, Morrow will probably lose some time.
