Throw in Potash and Paul Alexander and it's the perfect storm of suckitude. My kingdom for Lange and Bourque back on TV.
I like Errey. Steigy irritates me. Potash is a goof.
But above all of this...why is Paul Alexander back on? Maybe I was just missing it, but I swear it had strictly Rob King up until this past week.
Paul Alexander makes me find Caufield somewhat tolerable. I don't think there is a worse representation of Pittsburgh Sports than Alexander - and I'm including Madden in that.
Alexander and Caufield together makes me wish ROOT would spend the intermissions showing Adams and Glass taking penalty shots.
Back on topic...since we just passed the Idea of March, that little speech about killing the Senators is one of my all time favorite Errey-isms.
I love Bob Errey. My always & forever favorite Bibsy story: several years ago we were walking outside Mellon Arena after a game & were right behind a guy wearing a vintage Errey jersey. We could hear some guy repeatedly yelling, "Hey, nice jersey! Nice jersey!" He just kept going on and on until finally we all turned and looked and it's Bob Errey hanging out the window of his SUV.
I like him a lot and enjoy his goofy-ness. IMO his hockey smarts are pretty under rated and I don't know why he didn't get into coaching. He should have assisted in the A and worked his way up.
I'm not going to start a thread about it but does anyone else really like Weeks? IMO he's the best out there and he can talk in depth about the game without dumbing it down.
The day Gary Roberts was traded to the Pens. He didnt get to Pittsburgh in time to be in the line up that night but all game long Steigy & Errey were talking about his warrior mentality. Then this happened...
Might be slightly out of topic, but I have to make sure that one isn't forgotten :
Steigy : Chris Kunitz with the hat trick ! Everything he's touching is going in the net. That's his fourth career hat trick !
Errey : Yep, the scouts were wrong about Pascal Dupuis and Chris Kunits, weren't they ? Undrafted players playing with the best player in hockey, Come On !
Steigy : Kunitz was waived by the Ducks... the Atlanta Trashers picked him up... They waived him ! The Ducks got him back, the Penguins traded Ryan Whitney for him,
Ryan Whitney is now in Edmonton, and Chris Kunitz, is lightning it up in the National Hockey League, like no other winger is, at the moment.
