Jedi Master Mears!

Long time, Steve. Work has been so insane, I’ve barely been able to listen at all.  I’m going to keep this short… something out of the ordinary for me, like winning a 4 game back-sweep from a 3 game deficit in the Stanley Cup playoffs.

To say this series is crazy is nothing more than verbal monotony at this point.  I want to step away from the team and focus on our fans.  As a Pens fan, overall, the demeanor of other Pens fans makes me proud about being a Pens fan.  Game 3 was just not the Penguins.  That’s not our game.  That’s not how we play.  It’s not acceptable.  Many teams have fans that would support that display of goonism, the Flyers being at the top of that list.  I was proud to see my facebook, twitter, and email inbox fill up with disappointment and outrage that our team was playing like the team we despise the most.  It shows class.  It shows high standards.  It shows true appreciation of the game and that we’re not willing to sell our souls to achieve success.

My hat is off to you all, Pittsburgh and Penguins fans around the globe.

Lets take game 5 and make this a real series.

LETS GO PENS!!!
