Dr. Lovejoy in The Lineup for the Penguins Tonight

The Penguins have called up both Ben Lovejoy and goalie Jon Curry from the baby Pens. I am excited to see Lovejoy play again because he was really good when he was up earlier this year but disappointed that he is here because Orpik is hurt. Not sure why Curry was called up but i did hear a rumor that MAF has been dealing with a left arm injury so maybe he will be on the shelf for a while. As long as MAF's injury doesn't take to long to heal I believe Johnson can hold the fort in his absence.

Is anybody impressed with Caputi? Everyone in the media talks about his great hands and net front present he provides. What they fail to tell you is he can hardly skate, by the time he gets to the net to provide a presence Malkin has already shot the puck twice and it is already on the way out of the zone or we are lining up for a face off. If he is truly the best offensive talent we have at the minor league level we are never going to have a scoring winger in Pittsburgh.

  1. Dr. Lovejoy? What about Rev. Lovejoy from the Simpsons?

    Aside from that, I got nothin' to add.

  2. I Knew that name I just couldn't remember what show it was from. Thanks for jogging my memory it has been bothering me since his first call up this season. Dr. Lovejoy is how Mark Madden refers to him.
