Why? He left for less money :blink:

I think it's got more to do with the reason why he left. Apparently he left because he has more of a chance to win the Stanley cup in Detroit. If i was a pens fan i wouldn't be too happy about that. As i'm an avs fan i couldn't care less :p

No surprise here after two games. The Wings are too good, and they don't even need Pavel Datsyuk (whom I feel is the best player in the league). How would the Pens be if they lost Sidney Crosby or Evgeni Malkin for the first two games of the Stanley Cup Final? Although, considering their performances, the Pens seem to have been without Crosby or Malkin the past two games. Don't get me wrong; most Pens players are trying, and playing well, but it is against a superior team.

I picked Detroit to win the Cup this year, and it looks like it's well on the way to becoming true. Yet, I'm not going to close that door yet. The Pens still have talent, and as much as I would prefer seeing the Wings win the Cup, it would be exciting to see the Pens claw their way back into contention.

Speculation on the Conn Smythe this year? If the Pens win, it will be either Crosby or Malkin, although either still have a chance even if the Wings win. Personally, I'd pick Crosby over Malkin due to the Russian's poor sportsmanship this postseason. His attack on Zetterberg late in the game last night was particularly embarrassing. However, should the Wings finish off the series, I would have to think much more clearly for which Wing deserves it. Certainly, the defensive and offensive talent of Zetterberg, Datsyuk, and Lidstrom should be considered, as each is capable in both areas. Yet, none has shone over anyone else. My decision would have to go with Chris Osgood. Panned well throughout his career, he is about ready to put on a fourth Stanley Cup ring. The man has only ever missed the playoffs once in his career. Many call him overrated, and while he is certainly not the greatest to lace them up, it is his clutch performances that have given him his successes. A poor regular season led to many to believe that the Red Wings had no chance this year in the postseason, but he has proved every critic wrong. It is an outstanding story. His first stint with the Wings could be considered the prime of his career, and then no one thought much of him ever again while he was with the St. Louis Blues. Neither was it noticed a great deal when he came back behind Dominik Hasek in Detroit. Yet, he came to return and backstop the team to what could be back-to-back Cup victories when he is considered past his prime.

Zetterberg is my pick, R-Flex.

@ ABLNN: The Pens aren't garbage. They just aren't as good as the Wings, IMO. But they can still come back. Never say never.

I like the Caps and if you ever watch the Caps play the announcers treat Crosby like a god and never say anything about Ovechkin.

Ovechkin's far better than Crosby... just IMO. He doesn't have the talent Crosby has and look what he did.

First person to win all four awards last year, (Art Ross, Rocket Richard, Lester B. Pearson, Hart Memorial), and he got a gold medal at the World Championships playing for Canada in the same year. This man uses his potential to the full extent and is one of the best Left Wings in all of the NHL, perhaps in it's history.

Well, at least tonight's game was enjoyable to watch. The third period was intense! Shame is, I'm gonna be busy Friday night, so I won't be able to watch the game... Maybe catch a few glimpses.

Does anyone know of a place where I can sign up to have the goals texted directly to my phone? Preferably Canadian, haha.

Yeah, 3rd period was intense. Made me swear quite a few times!

I watched only the 3rd period, and it was crazy. I can't believe how lucky the Penguins got with the rush the Wings put on. This isn't to say that the Wings didn't have the same luck in the first two games of the series. But, it seemed as if they had more luck in this game than the Wings had in games 1 and 2 combined.

Yes... I'm mad that the Wings lost. At least we get bonus hockey on Friday, which should be crazy as well.

i could care less who wins, but i really want crosby to go up to hossa during the hand shake, tell him to **** off and not shake his hand for being a trader.

Yet again: he left for less money to a team he thought he had a better chance to win with. Why are you so upset about this? I mean, the guy played against them when they got dominated -- who wouldn't feel the same way?

Whether he made the right decision or not remains to be seen.

    • Tor Browser 15.0.15 by Razvan Serea Protect your privacy. Defend yourself against network surveillance and traffic analysis. Tor is a network of virtual tunnels that allows people and groups to improve their privacy and security on the Internet. The Tor software protects you by bouncing your communications around a distributed network of relays run by volunteers all around the world: it prevents somebody from watching your Internet connection and learning what sites you visit, it prevents the sites you visit from learning your physical location, and it lets you access sites which are blocked. The Tor Browser Bundle lets you use Tor on Windows, Mac OS X, or Linux without needing to install any software. It can run off a USB flash drive, comes with a pre-configured web browser to protect your anonymity, and is self-contained. Tor Browser 15.0.15 changelog: All Platforms Updated NoScript to 13.6.20.1984 Updated Tor to 0.4.9.9 Bug tor-browser#42436: Allow for multiple configured (front, reflector) domain fronting pairs in Moat module Windows + macOS + Linux Bug tor-browser#44997: Captcha doesn't work in TB desktop Linux Bug tor-browser#44886: Backport tor-browser#44361: Notify Linux i686 users that they won't receive updates anymore Download: Tor Browser (64-bit) | Tor Browser (32-bit) | 109.0 MB (Open Source) View: Tor Browser Website | Other Operating Systems Get alerted to all of our Software updates on Twitter at @NeowinSoftware
    • Less disk space means less bandwidth demands which means lower operating costs for service providers... that's where money talks. ... cuz it's not about improving video quality!... that's just marketing spin.
    • And thereby lies the rub. AV1 support is not as wide as paid analysts would have the industry believe. With AV2 around the corner, it's going cause more time backlog in adoption (how many recent purchasers will upgrade yet-again within the next 6-12 months? most would rather stay pat for another 1+ years before even thinking about upgrading their setups).
    • Microsoft OneDrive is getting a simple yet much needed feature by Sayan Sen Microsoft has been steadily expanding OneDrive’s file management capabilities over the years, including for shared content and shortcuts, although it has had its flaws, too. The cloud storage platform introduced support for folder shortcuts several years ago, allowing users to pin frequently accessed shared folders from OneDrive, SharePoint, and Teams. Now, Microsoft is refining that experience further with a new way to organize those shortcuts as revealed in a recent Microsoft 365 roadmap addition. Previously, shortcuts added through the “Add shortcut to My files” option would appear alongside all other files and folders in the root of a user's OneDrive. And although it's meant to be useful, this approach could also create clutter along the way, especially for heavy users who may have to work with large numbers of shared folders across multiple projects and teams on their systems. This is where Microsoft’s latest feature comes in, as it is looking to address this inconvenience by giving users the option to place new shortcuts inside a dedicated “Shortcuts” folder instead. The feature is designed to keep shortcut links organized into a single location instead of scattering throughout the main OneDrive directory. Hence, the idea is to make navigation and usability easier and simpler. The first time a user chooses this option, OneDrive will automatically create the folder, and to help make it stand out from the other folders, the Shortcuts folder will have a distinct visual identity featuring a unique color and a building-style icon. That being said, the new Shortcuts will behave just like any other folder in OneDrive, and as such, users will be able to move it to a different location, rename it, share it with others, or remove it entirely if they prefer a different structure. You can view the entry on the Microsoft 365 roadmap website here. Currently, the feature is in the "in development" phase, but the tech giant expects the rollout to start next month (July 2026). Do keep in mind, though, that new feature rollouts often get delayed.
    • VS Code 1.123 introduces massive upgrades for persistent AI developer workflows by Paul Hill Microsoft has just released Visual Studio Code 1.123 alongside its annual developer conference, Build 2026. This release, as always, has a heavy focus on advanced AI agent integration and making the built-in browser more robust. Notably, this update brings big sync changes that keep your AI agents persistent across sessions. With this update, VS Code now supports cross-machine syncing for chat histories, touched files, repository contexts, and related PRs via GitHub accounts, tying users even more into Microsoft’s developer ecosystem. This update also introduces the new /chronicle command that allows you to query past sessions using natural language, generate instant standup reports, and get personal productivity insights. Microsoft has also made some improvements to network-dependent operations, it explains: “When a terminal command that is run by a local agent requires access to domains that are not configured as allowed domains, the command is automatically retried inside the sandbox with unrestricted network access. After that, if it still fails, it falls back to unsandboxed execution. This allows network-dependent operations such as git fetch to finish, while keeping filesystem protections in place.” Microsoft has not stopped there; in this update, it also allows developers to drag, drop, and pin multiple agent sessions side-by-side for easy code comparisons in real-time. It also introduces the Research Agent, accessible via /research. This is a read-only, depth-optimized tool that gets data from the web, local codebase, and GitHub to give you a Markdown report on complex APIs or unfamiliar code. Now, let’s talk about the integrated browser and some security enhancements. VS Code 1.123 features enhanced screenshot capture tools that allow for targeted Area Screenshots and Full Page Screenshots to send layout context instantly to AI chat. The address bar has also been revamped, supporting favorite pages and tab management. Finally, on the security front, this update introduces a safety-first two-hour delay on third-party extension auto-updates to safeguard against compromised or buggy releases. This release is now available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. If you have VS Code, keep an eye out for the update availability notification. If you still don’t have VS Code, you can get it here.
