I can’t express how much it sucks to be in Pittsburgh and not find a ticket for this game. Watching from the hotel room is a bummer times I don’t know what.
It would have been so much fun to see the game and wander around the stadium today.
Being in Pittsburgh right now is funny though in terms of running into people in hotel lobbies, Consol, etc.
I agree. I wish they had sold more than only 10,000 tix for this game.

You compare those lineups and add in the fact that Pens had Guerin & Roberts, who both just finished playing, and I doubt you’d find anyone beforehand who figured the final score would be close.

Warning for the Winter Classic. We got to Heinz field early and got in line to go in about 45 minutes before puck drop. They only had one gate open and we didn’t actually get in until the end of the first period. The pat down line was pathetic. I hope they are prepared tomorrow when 57,000 more fans come in!

very short video from the post with highlights, May, Bondra, and Evason. Best I can find right now.
Pledge Drive 2010-2011: SO KIDS CAN!! Help build a playground
Katie has a write up of the game.
Goal scorers for the former Capitals were Alan May, Paul Mulvey, Mark Lofthouse, Mulvey a second time and finally Bondra on a shot after the puck popped out to the slot. “I feel like somebody just served up a cookie for me,” Bondra said, laughing, about the goal. “Puck was laying there and I just shot it I closed my eyes – I think I hit the corner.”
I hope someone gets a few minutes to get Labre’s take on it. He loves to talk and I’m sure has some good stories about today.
Pledge Drive 2010-2011: SO KIDS CAN!! Help build a playground
I remember getting Labre’s autograph vividly. I had three things I wanted signed, they had a two item limit, so I was putting one kind of away while he signed the other two, as a lady behind him kept saying “Two items per person!” and he grabbed it from me, blew a raspberry at the gal, and signed it. Personality is hilarious.
