08:26 AM ET 10.18 | In addition to the labor optimism, we have that much more reason to look ahead to the battle of the Keystone State -- thanks to a question Sidney Crosby was asked about Claude Giroux's claim that the Pens' captain broke Giroux's wrists while taking faceoffs. "I really like to win the faceoff. I don't try to go after his wrists but if I caught it, I'm not sorry for it. I think it's hilarious I hear that stuff from Philly. It's comedy to me to be honest with you. They're probably involved in that stuff more than any team in the league and they're the ones always talking about it. I guess I'm not apologetic. I was trying to win a faceoff and if I caught his wrist, then I caught his wrist. He seemed to play okay so I couldn't have hurt him that bad."

Oh Sid if I didn't enjoy the games between the these two teams so much I would have something witty to say

Two thoughts:

1. Ya never heard Kharlamov complain.

2. End this %$#%$ lockout already, so we can watch the PGH vs PHA fireworks. GET A DEAL DONE.

Say you're sorry Claude................or Sid will be soooooooo mad. Your stupid wrists probably scratched his favorite stick. I miss those games too!

Yesterday no humility, today he's just a Dick. ...but he's right. ;-)

May be a lockout, may be October..............but you're in play-off form!

There are 3 pictures of Crosby they typically use on here:
Him fighting Niskanen
Him shaking Bettman's hand
Him with a beard looking like he is going to take a face off
Interns, y u no use right picture for article?

If both wrists were broke (doubtful) he better have a real understanding wife or girlfriend because there is alot you can't do. Eat, wipe, undue the zipper to name a few.

It IS funny that Philly complains about cheap shots.............KARMA took a bite out of Pronger for all their shenanigans.......but...they still have the deepest set of forward corps in the league...with Boston coming up 2nd......

Deepest set of forwards, shallowest blueline. And, no Mark Howe in sight to save the day.
