Their fans, especially on here, are the most obnoxious fanbase in the NHL. They win 1 stanley cup and act as if their **** doesn't stink.
For real. They haven't done **** before they tanked to get Lemieux. Have you ever studied their attendance history? There's nothing about that pathetic team I am jealous of. The history of their success is due to tanking. When they lose, no one shows up. I'm so jealous. #sopo

Yup.
I don't think some of them realize just how ****ing lucky they are to tank at the best possible time lol.
I do respect their die-hards because as a long-time Phillies fan it does suck to get grouped in with the bandwagoners (which bothers me about the current Phillies fanbase)--but that's another story.
I hope the Flyers MURDER the Penguins in the playoffs. There is not a bigger bunch of ******** in the league than the Pens, and those *****es know they won't be able to pull that **** with the Flyers.
I wish we could have helped out tonight, but Biron looked like he was in another world (as usual) and Bettman and Mario were in prime form with the refs.

Reason: Borderline wishing injury, staying on safe side
The single most annoying thing about the Penguins' fanbase is this, "You're just jealous." nonsense or the, "You know you'd trade your entire team for Sidney Crosby."
Seriously. Nobody cares. No one is jealous of you, or they would have jumped on the Pittsburgh bandwagon long ago instead of following their own team.

This. Every time I see a post containing that thing my head's about to explode.

Yeah. I'm really jealous of the franchise that spent pretty much the whole 80s being horrible and faced relocation twice because they were so terrible at times. The franchise that lost a stupefying number of games in the Spectrum. All of their success comes from being so terrible for so long that they net great can't-miss players due to draft positioning. Boy, I'm really jealous I've never had to go through any of that. It's just unbearable to watch a team that has only missed the playoffs six times since they've existed, as opposed to the seventeen times the Penguins have missed it. They Flyers have won the Eastern Conference more often than they've failed to make the playoffs. Yep. Pure jealousy of the franchise with two streaks of four or more years of missing the playoffs.
Gimme a break.

And the response, without fail, would be a Stanley Cup picture...which personally doesn't change anything for me.

But according to Bettman they're the model franchise. So that should settle that.
Seriously though, I don't think you could have summed it up better. Bravo
Never thought I'd be posting on the Flyers board, but please destroy the Penguins. Rangers and Flyers play each other like men, not like those pansies. Hope you guys have a good series.

Reason: cleaned up a little
I'm praying that the reffing doesn't screwjob us worse than usual. That's all I'm asking. Every time we play the Pens, the reffing is a joke. Just please...don't be worse than usual.
Also praying that the Penguins don't resort to cheap **** like usual, but I can't see that happening. They don't get called for it, why stop?
**** Pittsburgh. There is almost nothing in this world that can get me angry, but damn do they do it.
