Its finally here. The Pens regular season home opener. The Pens return home after 3 games in Western Canada in which they got 5 out of a possible 6 points. Tonight the Pens welcome the Florida Panthers. What a bizarre home opener. Its never a Panthers game unless this is mention 843502465 times:

Last season the Pens took all 4 meetings against a horrible Panthers team who finished last in the East. I mean, they let Chris Conner score against them for crying out loud. And we all know Chris Conner's last memory in Pittsburgh.
The Panthers are always a pain in the ass to play. And after adding a million and one players in the off season they'll be an even bigger pain in the ass to play against. They added Jose Theodore who is like 19-4 or something against the Pens.
This is how I choose to remember Jose Thoedore.
No Malkin again tonight. Only word on him is that he is sore.

- No Malkin or Orpik still
Go Pens
