There is some positive news breaking

Sure, NPR but still sweet.

Boston is down 2-0 and those arrogant, obnoxious Boston fans are as puckered as we were last night.

I have grown to hate them almost as much as Flyer fans.

NPR exists for a reason.

Probably should stay away from PR until owtahear goes back into hiding...

Only when the Pens are playing well. Unfortunately that won't be for quite a bit. So for now it's Owtahear's world and we're just posting/lurking in it.

in other positive news, Zenon Konopka (the player once considered to be "twice as good as Jan Hrdina)" popped positive for a performance enhancing substance.

"I deeply regret getting caught that I have tested positive for a prohibited substance in violation of the NHL/NHLPA Performance Enhancing Substances Program. I accept full responsibility for this error. As a professional athlete I am responsible for what I put in my body, and I am to blame for this mistake.

I want to make it clear that this violation occurred because I ingested a product that can be purchased over-the-counter and which, unknown to me, contained a substance that violated the program. Unfortunately, I did not take the necessary care to ensure that the product did not contain a prohibited substance. I want to stress, however, that I did not take this substance for the purpose of enhancing my athletic performance.

I apologize to my teammates and to the Buffalo Sabres organization, as well as to my friends and family. I have learned a great deal from this experience, something I hope to be able to share with younger players. I will accept this suspension and continue to work hard to prepare for the 2014-15 season."

His Mario poster is looking over him in a very displeased fashion.
