The Explanation That Isn't

Okay, so no new posts in over a month (almost two months).

The explanation involves a seven-year-old computer, a word processor,
and well, other things, too.

In any case, however, here are the "unpublished blog entries" written right after the Pens were eliminated from the playoffs (sigh, more than a month ago at this posting).

And then, after those entries are published, well, onto discussing various topics such as:

• How does a 45-year-old man play more competently than the entire Pens' defense corps? (And Whitney had an injury, but, really, what excuse did the others have? Aside from Gonchar being Gonchar and the others, being, well....)

• Does it make it any better that the Ottawa Senators also beat the Buffalo Sabres and New Jersey Devils in five games? (Hmm, doubtful.)

• It's not a coincidence that all three teams still remaining in the postseason have depth and competency on the blueline, is it?

Those bullet points, however, are just to whet the appetite. Back to reliving the Pens' all too brief appearance in the 2007 Stanley Cup playoffs.
