Um... yeah... I dont really see what the point of this trade was from the Pens standpoint anyway.

Not like Tibbets is a franchise guy or anything, but he played hard...

Maybe Manderville coming in as a Center means there is a deal close to done for Lang to...???

Manderville is a solid player. While not flashy and not a big scorer, he plays smart, doesn't make many mistakes, can kill penalties. He is a good role player and he won't break anyones budget.

Tibbets the rapist is will fit right in at Filthydelphia.

But you know whats funny is...

If the Flyers play Toronto, or Montreal, or ottawa in the playoffs, Tibbets cant play the away games. He is not allowed into Canada. lol.

This is ture! He is not allowed to leave the country. The Pens had this potential problem last year in the playoffs if they were to end up playing a Canadian team...
