Last Friday I took a "Mental Health Day" and went to watch the Pens practice.
Here are some photos I snapped...
The "White" team stretches
Janne Pesonen
Jeff Taffe sporting his new number - #22
Mike Yeo diagramming the drill
Casual observations...
- Miro Satan and Ruslan Fedetenko have a good shot - similar to the sniping Petr Sykora. Should get a lot a goals set up by Crosby and Malkin, respectively.
- Pesonen looks small and light. I worry if his body will hold up over a season of big-timebanging in the NHL.
- Fleury stoned Crosby on the shoot out and proceded to glide across the ice "riding his stick" in triumph!
- I would like to think Taffe will be around after the pre-season. My guess is Ryan Stone won't be.
