Man :lol: You guys are going to remind me of how horrible the Turco signing is. I'm ok with that. At least I get to enjoy being a Stanley Cup Champion for a year.

Was it just me, or was some of the fans booing during the pre-game ceremony in Chicago?

no doubt you should enjoy being a Stanley Cup Champion for a year but if Turco keeps playing like he is (and he will) it may be a long season.

I was at the Pens game so I didn't see the ceremony. why would anyone boo?

I could have sworn I heard some booing when they were introducing some of the team higher ups and Coach Quenville.

No doubt, this has a chance to be a long, miserable year.

As I am skimming through the hockey forum trying to learn about the collecting side of the sport (just getting into it after collecting the other 3 major sports for 20-ish years), I was wondering if there have been any GU or autograph cards featuring players in their winter classic gear. I was hoping to go to the game when it was in Chicago, but the tickets were out of my price range at the time.

Not to my knowledge. I know I saw at the National in 2008 a Pittsburgh company had a bunch of the Pens Winter Classic Gamers from the game vs. Buffalo. Other than that, I really have no clue.

That's pretty surprising. You'd think that they'd do everything they could to get some sweet patches into sets. Think of some Limited Logos with WC patches.

I agree it is very disappointing. I would love some auto'ed or GU'ed Pens WC cards.

UD has made a few Winter Classic insert sets.

Kopitar just scored in the shootout against Luongo. I can't even begin to imagine how much pain Kopitar is in right now. if no one else is watching this game Anze took a stick in the mouth in the 2nd Period and lost some teeth and has a large gash on both of his lip's.

Kings win 2-0 in the SO
