The little bit of pain we’ve gone through has really shined a strong light on the fair-weather Pens fans. Some of yinz would have never survived the Rico Fata days.
We’ve won so much over the last decade and a half, I knew we picked up a lot of those “I only like winners” types. But the amount of those to the real ones is really jarring.
A quick Google dive revealed Rico Fata is now a Tim Horton’s operator in Canada. That is both awesome, and wild to think about.
@PenguinsJesus Generation x was so bad. The coaching by Edzo was equally bad. My cousin is friends with him, and to this day Believe shouldn't never been fired.
@PenguinsJesus They should put up a banner for Rico's -46 plus/minus
@PenguinsJesus That is awesome! I’d forgotten all about guys line Abid too! Really having a team that stinks is no pressure as a fan. You just go, enjoy. Zero expectations. See @Pirates
@PenguinsJesus What about the Gary Rissling days. Don’t short change those years. They were awesome. My favorite down year just wait & enjoy before Mario gets here.
@PenguinsJesus I like this info ! Neat to see where ex players are nowadays 👍🏼
@PenguinsJesus Hey, I lived after the ‘93 ECSF loss to the Isles. It happens. ‘07-09 was a blip, but I found it extremely ironic that ‘15-17 was EXACTLY like it was in ‘90-92. Probably should occur again in ‘40-42. It’s well worth the wait.
@PenguinsJesus Love Tim Hortons Travel to Canada lots for business.
