For the 2ND DAY IN A ROW the Penguins choked a multi-goal 3rd period lead and lost in overtime 😱😭

In case anyone’s wondering, yes, I did get to enjoy the Mammoth’s dramatic overtime win! I had handed off my iPad to my kid before the third period began, so I wasn’t able to post along with everyone else. Maybe that was good luck? #TusksUp 🦣

The Mammoth aren’t losing … they’re just keeping the Sabbath Day holy. 😇

It makes me sad to see empty seats right behind the goal. Sitting there was one of my most thrilling sports experiences ever.

Fitting that a guy named Rust would play for Pittsburgh.

Guess who got free tickets to the Mammoth game tonight! I just hope I can actually see both goals this time …

Everyone assumes the next guy can fix those deficiencies but instead they often just come with fewer strengths.

The Jazz actually had a really nice streak of identifying and developing undrafted Dogs up until the last few years.

Demarre Carroll, Joe ingles, Royce O’neal

Feels like they’ve lost that mojo since they decided to stop trying to win.

NHL logo history: 2006

We skip ahead a bit in our timeline, mainly because of the strike that cost the NHL the entire 2004-05 season.

The Pittsburgh Penguins learned firsthand how difficult it is working with Vegas gold. So they tried to lighten the shade of it, but I think that made it even worse

NHL logo history: 2003

Steve Ellman bought the Phoenix Coyotes in 2001 and he brought along Wayne Gretzky as a part-owner. They quickly threw out the busy kachina doll logo and replaced it with a simple howling coyote head. I have to admit ... I like this one better.

New Jersey’s 6'2" point guard Stephon Marbury elevates to slam home a lob pass against his former team. Marbury had 27 PTS/7 AST in the Nets’ 116-94 win over Minnesota. Kevin Garnett had 21 PTS/10 REB for the Timberwolves.

5/10 no, Picard is not good with children. No, he will not get better

NHL logo history: 2002

Shortly after Mario Lemieux became the first player-owner in league history, the Pittsburgh Penguins returned to their old cartoony design. But instead of the classic bright yellow, they went with a dark Vegas gold. I think old designs like this need bright, classic colors.

NHL logo history: 2001

They were a couple of years late, but the Tampa Bay Lightning also joined in on the subtle color shifts that impacted most of the league. Maybe it had to do with their uniforms or something? Anyway, this is still a terrible logo with basic, conflicting fonts.

That’s OK … 52 seconds to force overtime … we’ve got this …

Incredible energy by the Mammoth tonight! I wish they played this inspired every game!
