This Friday With Stoosh 02.11.2012
Almost sixteen days until the trade deadline, so you better enjoy these last 16 days of Paul Martin's Penguins career HAW HAW HAW OK, not really...but there's more after the jump.
THE PAUL MARTIN CONUNDRUM
Paul Martin's 79 blocked shots lead the Pens and place him just out of the top 60 among NHL defensemen.

John Toperzer: Chicago Needs a Defender & Pittsburgh Has Defensive Depth: A Match?
Pens unable to sweep season-series Tuesday in Montreal
Follow me on Twitter @JohnToperzer
-Nobody disputes that Paul Martin has talent. The issue is whether itâs worth $5 million per year. If Martin was making $2-$3 million there wouldnât be so much trade speculation and perhaps not as much angst directed toward him.

RECAP: See you next year. PENS LOSE.
One thing you can set your watch to. No matter the season, the record, or time of year, a loss in Montreal will drive you crazy. Losing in Montreal makes you think thoughts that aren't rational. It drives you to your kitchen where you just start eating things because you're so jammed up. You take your dog for a real long walk after losses in Montreal. You probably lost some...

STATS: The inevitable Paul Martin vs Sergei Gonchar comparsion
This one is tough. Gonch was an aging defenseman. He came off a not-so solid playoff ( see Travis Moen's goal in game 7)
Paul Martin was the puck moving defenseman from the New Jersey Devils. He was younger, much less of a risk.
From Rob Rossi that summer:
The Penguins prefer a two-year term at no more than his previous $5 million annual salary, and Barry said...

Is Tangradi the Pens best bargaining chip?
With the NHL trade deadline just weeks away, there is only one thing you can be sure of –a lot of players will be wearing new uniforms. The NHL trade deadline is always the most active of all the American sports because teams are always looking to add that extra presence to their roster or the upcoming playoff push. Every year there are plenty of rumors and big names...

RECAP: Living Young, Wild, and Malkin. PENS WIN.
With all the Crosby **** over All Star Weekend and then a semi-impromptu Crosby press conference with the Canadian media in town, the Pens fan base wanted nothing more than for the team to get back to playing some hockey. And so they did. And it didn't look good at all. The game didn't even feel close, and the Pens (and especially Fleury) were doing just enough to keep...

VIDEO: Ray Ferraro doesn't think very highly of Paul Martin
Apparently on the NHL gamecenter's ( not center ice) feed Ray Ferraro of TSN didn't know to be quiet on commercial breaks.
Pension Plan Puppets caught him saying something bizarre.

It was nice to recharge the batteries but now is the time to start looking at those fantasy hockey teams as Week 16 continues for most but a new week starts for a select few (it just depends on your league).

The New Jersey Devils And Their Defensive Doldrums
Once upon a time there was an NHL franchise so stingy on defense not even the slickest offensive players could penetrate their walls. It was a club so strong, so intimidating and so fearless they were known as the “beasts of the East” for over a decade. But, oh my, how the mighty New Jersey Devils have fallen.
The New Jersey Devils were once the epitome of defensive...

Penguins 4, Capitals 3 (OT)
So what happened?
This was a great win for the Pens. It had a bit of everything - a quick start, allowing three straight goals against, a key goal in the third to tie it up and then the OT winner.
It was like a roller coaster that had a great finish to it. Without that finish, it would have felt vastly different at the end.
As for the Caps, their system is painful to watch...

We’re going streaking! Pens beat Rangers
This is how the Pens’ last 14 games have gone: won four, lost six, won four. Pretty crazy streaking going on. After the six-game losing streak, everyone was headed for the bridge. Then they won three and everyone said it didn’t matter because the teams they beat during that stretch were garbonzos.
Last night the Pens had a chance to show they could beat an elite team and...
