Start Bob in the next game. If he wins, he starts the Classic. If he loses, take your pick of Bob or Bryz.

Hows about we play both? Start Bobs and then switch to Bryz halfway through?
Following Dan Carcillo where ever he may go
Read, Rinaldo and Sestito Flyercrushes until his return
Bob seems to like giving up a goal in the first minute and then settles down. So how bout we start Bryz for a minute and then put Bob in.

I have a perfect explanation for the boos Travis
simply put, the Pens fan base is pretty young. They are too young to remember the 91-92 playoffs. I bet if you picked 100 22 and under Pens fans from last night’s game, and asked them to list 3 players from the 91-92 team (excluding Mario), they wouldn’t be able to. This isn’t a shot at the fans, but that franchise wasn’t relative until the late 80s early 90s when they got Super Mario, and subsequently, won 2 titles. These fans have no recollection for Jagr or his abilities because they have only seen the worst: at the earliest, the trading to Washington when the pens were very bad (the Rico Fata and Jan Hrdina days) and the NYR days. They didn’t see those Cups. That’s why you see a jackass like the little kid in your SBNation post holding up that sign, because he has no sense of history. If you boo Jagr, you have no sense of history, and I as a person lose respect for you
They’ll cheer Talbot because he’s fresh in their minds and won them a Cup. They’ll boo Jagr because he won two Cups back when their parents conceived them while under the influence of Iron City

Do you see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?
Those teams were absolutely stacked. They couldn’t play defense to save their lives but they could score in waves – even the D men.
Do you see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?
yes, we remember them (and this is firmly an opinion of mine) because the Flyers won the Cup much earlier in their organizational history than the Pens. The Flyers had a vested interest for most of their tenure because there was a possibility of a repeat.

No. Those two could actually play defense. The rest of the team… not so much.
Do you see what happens when you find a stranger in the Alps?
Yep. (One could add Jeff Chychrun and Jim Paek to that list of defensive defensemen.) But it sure worked well for them (briefly)! In 1990-91 they had a 37 goal differential in the regular season and 1991-92 they had a +35. For comparison, the Flyers had a -16 and a -20 over the same two seasons. (League best was LA with a 86 in 1991 …)

But you would think that any Penguins fan who was/would be Jagr would know that he played on the team before. And any true Penguins fan would at least read up on all of the reports that go around on potential signings, then they would know that the Penguins had little to no interest in signing Jagr. I completely agree with you, but I feel you are giving them a little more credit than they deserve.

Good God, that is some high drivel. You think Jagr didn’t play well when he was with the Capitals because the rest of his team was awful? Nah, it was clearly the booing which affected him just like it did last night.
Oh, wait.

on eye test alone I just feel a lot more comfortable with bob in net. it seems like both are relaxed in net but bryz is relaxed to the point of sucking and bob is relaxed to the point where we should have blindly threw 51 million at him.

Bob looks good because he’s not playing 4-5 straight games

Yeah but was that due to a lack of experience possibly? The bad thing is I don’t think we will get to see bob play that many consecutive games unless there’s a catastrophic injury or a humangous implosion of bryz

So logic would say that he would improve this season playing multiple games. I think we should try it out. After the effort bob was putting in last night, I think he earned the right to start a few games. I know ed snider is pulling the strings but just like lavy said to tue players during that intermission go out there and earn it. Same should go for the goalie. Bob has earned it
by profoundnotions on Dec 30, 2011 10:30 AM EST via mobile up reply actions
I’m still not convinced he could be a full-time starter. Next year yes, but right now it’d be his 2nd year being a back up, which is pretty normal
"Start playing with some jam in here"

He was pretty much the full-time starter last year and had an excellent rookie season, even including the stretch where he supposedly wore down towards the end.

I always wonder how much of “Bob looks relaxed” is simply projecting how it is the viewer who is relaxed.
Also, how much is due to the fact that, you know, he’s stopping more picks.

I say we give Bob 3 or 4 games in a row followed by a game or two by Bryz, then repeat a few times, and see how he does. Keep giving him more and more games so he can get in the groove of playing 50+ games per season. If stamina is the only problem, then nobody should be worried.
Problem – if Bob is playing 50+ games, why are we paying Bryzgalov $5.67 million for the next 10 years???

I think that Jagr’s salute should be nominated for “Best FU moment of the year award.” I’m trying to think of other nominees.

I seem to remember an angle showing a guy on the other side of the glass wearing a Pens Jagr jersey, who also saluted Jagr back. Perhaps Jagr was simply acknowledging a fan, rather than sarcastically responding to Baby Blue Pens fan giving him the finger. I’d really like to think the Flyer’s player was taking the high road there.

The Columbus Blue Jackets suffered a major blow Thursday night as defenseman James
Wisniewski suffered a fractured left ankle in the second period.
Blue Jackets General Manager Scott Howson tweeted Friday that after seeing Dr. Larry Watson, Columbus’ team physician, Wisniewski will not require surgery and will be out six weeks.
