Yes I did play with Michel Galarneau in Hartford. Unfortunately we weren't very good then so the organization didn't really have time to develop the young talent. Pens aren't getting the calls they received in the first 3 rounds. As the Rangers found out it's tough to fight city hall! What comes around goes around for the Pens! I'll keep an eye on your blog as well...<BR/><BR/><B>Captjameson:</B> Couldn't agree more..<BR/><BR/><B>Crocks**t:</B> I couldn't resist! I hope not too, but it could be a huge disaster for the NHL.<BR/><BR/><B>Mr. Hockey:</B>At 6'4"- 220+ lbs. he had no reason to cry. All he needed to do was swat a few players in his day and then no one would have clutched & grabbed him! As for the Pens- let's face it they've been slapped by a highly efficient hockey club (if not boring- yawnnnn). I don't think this is what the NHL had in mind with the big build up of this series..Kotsy's Kornerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16450255858469964123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968760202711798607.post-45865932752751353782008-05-27T22:07:00.000-04:002008-05-27T22:07:00.000-04:00Iwonder what 66 is thinking when he watches HIS te...Iwonder what 66 is thinking when he watches HIS team playing the game by the RULES he lobbied for with the NHL-and not being able to control the the game on the ice like they were intended to do when this whole thing got started!-I find it kind of funny to watch a team full of the SKILLED players --you know the ones the NHL want to go unchecked or slowed up so WE can enjoy the game!--yeah those guys -- Well I think it's ironic that it's that team that was reverting back to the kind of hockey that was played before 66 went to the soapbox asking for the changes that the league made. If the Pens played the GAME as nasty as they did after the stopages maybe the Wings would't make it look so easy. 66 might not enjoy watching, but he has to realize that if the rules can't help his team gain control of the puck than they have to battle for it!-during the play not after the whistle.Mr. Hockeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06384780379376797564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968760202711798607.post-40280604512521675282008-05-27T19:04:00.000-04:002008-05-27T19:04:00.000-04:00You are right I am sure the NHL is not too happy a...You are right I am sure the NHL is not too happy about the way this series is going thus far.

I discovered it thanks to your son who posted the link on a forum. I followed it and found the place. I'm actually a die-hard Rangers fan from France who is also running his own blog (www.blueshirts.fr) with his thin knowledge but with passion. I'm in my " I want to know everything about Rangers history" period, so finding this blog is a real bless for me as you are part of Rangers history.<BR/><BR/>I see you played for the Whalers in the 80's, pretty funny since I know (have seen played/met...) one of your old teamate Michel Galarneau who should have been in Hartford at the same time than you. He played here in my Hometown, Brest (team: Brest Albatros) in the late 90's and helped us to win the French championship. Great memories for me. Thanks for your blog, I will follow it with interest from now.<BR/><BR/>To bounce back on the DET-PIT finals I must admit that I'm a bit disapointed by the Pens. But I'm not so surprised because, to be honest, they were not really impressive at all in the early rounds from I've seen. Our blueshirts could hope better. I have some difficulties to forget the call on Straka in game one, Hollweg's penalty in game 3 breaking our momemtum and of course OT goal from Hossa while there was clearly an offside. Well What's done is done. I can't wait for the next season to begin, our youngsters have shown so much this year, that can only be a good thing for the future.<BR/><BR/>See you soon, regards from france,<BR/><BR/>JeffAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3968760202711798607.post-39396258257100336622008-05-27T12:02:00.000-04:002008-05-27T12:02:00.000-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
