I think it's a horrible title, especially with the picture they have.

Sweet Jesus, Crosby looks like something out of Planet of the Apes in that picture.

I think Steal City would have been better, like someone else suggested here.

Couldn't care less, to be honest.

Pens win. They can give it any bloody title.

Wonder how long until TSN changes it... Or maybe SNL just ruined it for me.

The original title was: The Pens Are Mightier...a headline that I thought up before the game started, apparently TSN also reads minds...

He tried to play and took a shift in the third, but it was obvious that his knee was ****ed up and he only would have been a liability to his team out there. He can party with his team without being a liability!

Common sense is really lacking nowadays, although i do know you only said that to be a troll because there is no way anybody can be that slow.

Can't find a proper YouTube, but perhaps even more appropriately.

Reminds me of the old Jeopardy skits on SNL, where Sean Connery would say "The Penis Mightier".

Edit : No surprise, someone beat me to it.

It's better than ESPN's headline, "Champion Penmanship". What does that even mean - that they're great at signing autographs?
