La Coupe Hauxer

A battle for hockey bragging rights through head to head competition between each of our favorite teams - Devils (Brad), Flyers (Wiley), Penguins (Sam), and Capitals (Fritz/William). The winner(s) gets the historic La Coupe Hauxer and the universal currency of respect/adminiration. The loser(s) gets the Stanley Screwdriver, the universal currency of humiliation and has to buy everyone dinner at the Vienna Inn. Game on!

Flightless birds may fly elsewhere

Bad news for Penguins fans, Mario Lemieux is suggesting that the chances of the Penguins staying in Pittsburgh beyond their current lease (which ends after next season) is "slim." Frankly, I cannot imagine La Coupe Hauxer without the Pittsburgh Penguins.

'Slim chance' Penguins will stay in Pittsburgh, Lemieux says - Post-Gazette

I wonder if Teddy E-mail has a plan to entice Pens fans to support the Capitals in the event of a relocation. If he does not, he needs to create one.

I can see myself losing interest in hockey if the Pens move. I hope this move was just posturing on Mario's part, but he's really done everything he can. I blame Ed Rendell, the current governor, and a Flyers apologist. He plans to give the slots license to a group that contributed to his campaign. What a jerk.
