Civic Arena. You were a good ship. It was a good ride. But your time has come to an end. We can only hope that you get a proper burial and are put to rest by Jean-Claude Van Damme. The Consol Energy Center, to put it mildly, is FUCKING AWESOME. I nearly shit when I was there for the Rush concert.
Awesomeness aside, what kind of Yinzers would we be if we let Old Lady Mellon meet her fate without being properly memorialized? That's where @PensBoozeAnger on Twitter, known to lesser mortals as Matt, comes in. He's the brains behind the Facebook group Memorialize the Mellon, which is pretty much the greatest idea since disposable diapers and the Thighmaster. Etch that awesome old bitch's outline into the glass of the CEC...what is bad about this idea? It's already doomed to become a dust heap. We gotta remember her somehow. If you're not 9,000% behind this idea, you hate Jesus, America, and three-legged kittens.

In other news, the Pens have signed Ray Shero (aka God) to a five-year contract extension. Layman's terms: Pittsburgh hockey will assfuck the NHL into submission for a further five years.
Not much else to say. First preseason game against Fatty Osgood and company tomorrow night. Make me a milkshake, Malkin and slap me silly Sidney. Let's go Pens.
