The_People1 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 http://www.tsn.ca/nhl/story/?id=420218 So Crosby breaks his jaw on Iginla's first game as a Pens. Now we learn James Neal is out with a concussion. It looks like the Pens will be banged up going into the playoffs and that's not a good sign. Is Iginla the curse? Or is it Douglas Murray? Just destined to never win a Cup? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LCP_STEVIEG Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 well, Letang is close to returning. And it looks like Crosby will be back within the next couple of weeks. And Beau Bennett is capable of filling the void left by Neal. So I wouldn't go as far as to say that Iginla is cursed . Not to mention, Pittsburgh has clinched so they dont need to worry about making it to the playoffs. They can work on team chemistry and getting guys healthy again.

bronco73 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 I'd be more inclined to say that from the Penguins point of view they are thinking themselves lucky. If they hadn't gotten aggresive before the deadline they could very well be minus Crosby and Neal, and without Iginla, Morrow, and Jokinen.

Carty Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 is it Douglas Murray? Just destined to never win a Cup? Sometimes perhaps it's just the nature of penguins... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geos Posted April 11, 2013 Report Share Posted April 11, 2013 It's actually great news for us. Sounds like that pick might not be 29th or 30th overall now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zirakzigil Posted April 12, 2013 Report Share Posted April 12, 2013 Ya and the Pens are going to finish second overall at minimum in the east still. They are just fine. Most likely all of their players are back for the playoffs at well with Neal being the only question mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DL44 Posted April 16, 2013 Report Share Posted April 16, 2013 @pgshelly :Lines at #Penguins practice; Kunitz-Jokinen-Iginla, Morrow-Dupuis-Bennett, Cooke-Sutter-Kennedy, Glass-Vitale-Adams. Poor Iggy... goes to the hottest team in the East with the 2 best centers in the league... and he's stuck with another waiver wire material center to play with....

I still would have rather seen Iggy go to Boston, the Bruins and the Flyers were my teams when I was a kid... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zirakzigil Posted April 20, 2013 Report Share Posted April 20, 2013 Iginla just cursed the Pens to clinching the eastern conference today. Ill take that kinda curse on my team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Addicted Posted May 10, 2013 Report Share Posted May 10, 2013 Glad to see Iggy racking up the points and playing a crucial role in the Pens success thusfar!

conundrumed Posted June 6, 2013 Report Share Posted June 6, 2013 Hang in there, Jarome! The Pens are not screwed yet. He's gotta be the best player on the ice, and play like he knows it. That's what Iggy CAN do, but he's gotta do it. GET SELFISH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyerfan52 Posted June 7, 2013 Report Share Posted June 7, 2013 The Pens should win tonight. Yes they should if they want to extend their playoffs. If they don't they are toast. I doubt the Bruins back off when they have a foot on the Pens throat though. The Pens look disorganized which is strange for players that have seen the playoffs before. The Bruins are @ home & would like a bit of rest before they play the survivor of the Hawks/Kings series. The Pens will be fighting for their playoff lives but that often leads to players trying to assume too much of the load. A few frustrated stars makes that very possible leading to predictable plays where they try to do too much rather then rely on teammates. If the Bruins score 1st that frustration becomes magnified as the Pens have to come from behind. ***************************************************** Should, could & deserve are words often used by those rooting for a team they are unsure of. Regardless, the Bruins have 4 chances to win 1 game. The Pens can't afford to lose 1 more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carty Posted June 15, 2013 Report Share Posted June 15, 2013 My apologies to Iggy, but this one was just too good to pass up... That, and the fact I think the return was better from Boston, and I would have rather seen him become a Bruin than a Pengie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
