Pittsburgh Penguins 2008-2009 Season Tribute: Part 2: Clubbed To Death

First off, I apologize for the quality. I promise this is the only one with this kind of quality. This is only the 2nd year of me recording the entire season. It's still hard to anticipate what I will want at the end of a year, and I don't have the storage to keep everything. I never dreamed I'd make a video showing the opponents scoring goals, and so I never wanted to run up my hard drive with their good plays. Hence, the lower quality to save storage space. Plus, who wants to spend a ton of time and energy getting highlights when your team loses leads in the 3rd period, gets blown out by Toronto, etc.

But it had to be done. Why? This was a big part of the Penguins season. This is where you find the true fans. The fans who aren't jumping down the Pens throat to trade Crosby or Fleury or some other junk. Fans who stick by their team and trust that they will do what's right. Fans who wait outside in the freezing rain in 33 degree weather for 5 hours to get a $20 dollar ticket, even though the team has just lost several games in a row.

And it makes the run to the Cup that much sweeter, knowing that the Pens were this close to missing the playoffs. This close to having a horrible season after coming 2 games within the Cup the year before.

So, you may not enjoy this video very much, but it's going to make the next parts that much better.

The song is Clubbed to Death...which is (nearly) what the Pens were through this time.

what the **** is this BS? this isnt a pens tribute

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

Did you read the description?

This was a big part of our season. I'd rather face it instead of make highlight videos that ignore about 3 months of the season. It makes parts 3 and 4 that much better.

[HeroicTyrant]

wow, how can you even call what crosby did a 2:05 a fight? that was a big pussy move and most players in the league said so....That was a joke

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

The point was to highlight his (and the team's) frustration, not his fighting ability.

[lawrencetimmons94]

Oh yes, one more thing, when will part 3 come out?

[AGreatDayForHockey87]

I'll try and get it done this weekend but can't say for sure. It may be Monday or Tuesday.

@HeroicTyrant how is it that when a player other than crosby pulls the other players jersey over their head and beats em its a good fight or they "beat the shit outta them" but when crosby does it its a pussy move? go fuck yourself dude

[xXleafletXx]
