C’était le 1er novembre 2006 contre les Kings à Los Angeles, au Staples Center de l’époque, lorsque j’habitais là-bas. Les Pens ont remporté ce match 4-3 en prolongation grâce à un but de la recrue Evgeni Malkin.

Still have my signed Staal stick from those runs lol
You can tell they’re young by their face hah
They’re all so young. How have they all gotten so old when I haven’t aged at all?
Miss those days for more reasons than I can even say.
Ohhhh maaannn. I remember staying up to watch the ticker at the bottom of the screen to see if Malkin scored. I was so happy when he did because he tied an NHL record going back to the first year of the league (1917-8) by scoring in his first 6 straight NHL career games.
I believe that streak included his punching the glass goal vs New Jersey « shades of Mario ». I always think back to those few weeks as the renaissance of penguins hockey. Like after the shitty post-Jagr era, the team on the ice finally looked like a competitive team
Thanks for these pics OP
Great times, but I much prefer the bold colors of their jerseys now.
I loved these jerseys. Unpopular opinion for sure but I’d love to see a Vegas gold alt one day
Crosby with an A patch and Malkin without one is wild to see.

One of my favorite jerseys I own
Wild that the only one of those guys who’s retired is Fleury.
This makes me wanna cry 😢😩
Excellent times ahead, guys. Just be patient; 2009, ’16-’17 are worth the wait. Even 2008 was great.
Almost 20 years ago and now I feel old. Also, I miss Staal. Really liked him.
No Erik Christiansen?
Alternate captain Sid is one of the rarest Crosbys. That’s a cool photo to have.
Ah, a Geno post on a day with no game. Thanks OP.
Oh my… I’ve been wearing my Staahl jersey for two days straight. He was my favorite and my first jersey. The good old days!
