I met Kris Letang after a game! he was so sweet. me and this other girl were going crazy and begging him to come over and he did lol we further down the line of ppl and his car happened to be right across from us and he moved the gate and came over to us :)

Crosby is a solid player but he is no Ovechkin or Toews

My uncle got Lemiuex's autograph&put it in a book,I started collectin all Pens autographs.I had so many&then someone stole it.I was so upset so my uncle went to one of their mornin practices to get more.Flower,Sid&Max were goin to the locker room&my uncle was sitting near the runway&asked if they would sign it,he told them everything so they took it&got it signed by every player.All 3 wrote inspirational words on the first page.I cried when my uncle gave it to me.

Hey how did u meet sid crosby ive been trying to get his auto forever. and wat time would i have to get to the morning skate if i went at 1 or 7.

[yankees22387]

The pens have their skate around 10am at mellon arena on game days (when the game is at 7pm). I got to mellon arena around 10:30am so i got a parking spot. The players usually start to come out around Noon. Sid (from what i heard) usually signs but sometimes he goes out the back way of mellon arena to avoid a crowd. I explained more in some of the earlier posts on this page.

Oh thanks but what if the game is at 1 and wat time would i have to go cause i might go see the pens vs the atlanta thrashers.

[mrscrosby314]

Yea, I understand why!!!! He's amazing!!!!! Definitely better than that ovechkin!!!! The thing is that ovechkin is very cocky and overconfident with himself.

[yankees22387]

i don't like ovi either. I don't like his style of play and he is not very nice to the fans (from what i heard)

[mrscrosby314]

@yankees22387 yea, everyone's like, "o mi god, ovechkin is AMAZiNG!!!!" and im like he aint much better than sid!!!! i am a loyal pittsburgher all the way!!!

[mrscrosby314]

I wanted sid so bad but he came out on the other side of the building!!!

[yankees22387]

he probably parked his range rover in mellon arena and tried to avoid a crowd

[mrscrosby314]

what time did you go? imma go to the game on march 20, 2010 and i REALLY wanna go to the morning skate. PLEASE, someone tell me!

[yankees22387]

I didn't go watch the skate (i don't think it is open to the public).

Anyways, the players come out of gate 2 (the gate directly across the new arena). i got there @10:30am just to make sure i got a parking spot. The skate ends @ 11:30. The players usually come out around 12 noon. Be ready for a decent size crowd, there was a steelers game was going at the same time so there weren't a lot of people that day. I waited around til 1:30pm. Coach Dan and Kris Letang came out around that time.

[mrscrosby314]

thank you soo much. you really helped me out alot!

[yankees22387]

Let me know if you have any questions

[mrscrosby314]

[yankees22387]

the game started at 7pm

[mrscrosby314]
