Lots O'Links

What's worse than a head cold? A head cold in the summer! (>_<) I feel like hell, and the air conditioning is exacerbating my symptoms. But I can't stand it when I go two days in a row without posting, so today I'm going to hook you up with a bunch of links that I got from several Friends of The Show.

From Lauren H.:

• The Pens are trying to get approval to use the Winter Classic jersey as their third jersey this season. (Yay!)
• The Bleacher Report ranks the 10 most valuable NHL players. Hmm... guess where they ranked the Saint??? ;)

SWEET!!!

From AustinLovesCrosby:

• Alan Muir of Sports Illustrated lists the must see games of the 2008-09 season (most of the recommended games feature our Boys of Winter).
• Should Sid have been awared the Conn Smythe trophy?
• Was the Pens' offseason a success?

Now you didn't think I'd pass up an opportunity to post a picture of Siddo at the Winter Classic, did you?

From Erin from Winnipeg, AustinLovesCrosby, Susan M., and Narmeen A.:

• ESPN.com ranks the Pens No. 1 in East in its summer NHL power rankings.

Okay, this is the last one - I promise. ;) In my defense, that was a really great day that I love reminiscing about often.

And finally, from Mike @ Japan:

• (This doesn't have anything to do with Sid, but I just had to share it.) Alex Ovechkin is a speed demon. He still has his license?? WTF?!?! It must be nice to be famous.

I wonder if either of these two even had their licenses yet when this photo was taken...

Now for TSCS's Quote of The Day:

"We get nose jobs all the time in the NHL, and we don't even have to go to the hospital."
