Well at least we will get to see Rimers retirement celebration.
Wonder if we even win a game the rest of the year
Danforth was on the ice ahead of the morning skate. Hopefully he’s feeling better. His presence has been missed.
Edit: Kuraly also skating. Both Danforth and Kuraly in non-contact jerseys.
Elvis in the net
Edit: also my sweet Monsters eclipse jersey was delivered!!!!

Please win this for Rimer at least
Over under on crowd percentage being pro Pens?
Please don’t lay an egg in front of Jeff for his ceremony. He deserves much better
I want one of those sweet Rimer T-shirts
Do ticket prices usually come down right before game time?
About to salute Rims by being blown out
Honestly due to the nature of the event (happy retirement day!) I feel like this is the last possible winnable game for the year. Doesn’t matter really because the ducks are being fowl too and they won’t give up that #3 slot even if we lose every game remaining of the year
Are they going to load Rimer into the cannon before or after the game?
Angle returned to Cleveland.
Please win this for Jeff. After twenty goddamn years he deserves that much.
Also, I keep forgetting to post this but [meet my new kitten Ollie, aka Yarble, named for Bjorkstrand ofc](https://i.imgur.com/2Wni2Ue.jpeg). My best
friends shipped him up from Texas and I swear he’s a six-ish month old kitten, he’s just absolutely gigantic and clocked in at 11 pounds when he got fixed three weeks ago.
(Also enjoy the ‘just had surgery’ shame daisy because he sure didn’t lmao.)
