Another tight game yesterday for the Pens and Rangers. Being on National TV, the game took forever, even with no goals.

I'm not sure I like how they boo Jagr all the time. I don't remember that he left on bad terms, did he?

Pens lead series 2-0 already heading to NY. Have to see how they hold up there.

I think they are booing Jagr because of the comments he made before game 1. He said Crosby isn't even close to Lemieux or something along those lines.

Philly won again tonight. Price let in a couple of softies and got pulled before the 3rd period. Still, not to bad for a 19 year old.

I'm pulling for Montreal I think they have to come back from the 2-1 defecit those were some softies Price let it but he came back with a shut out last series after he gave up 5 goals I think. I'm rooting for Montreal the rest of the way. Would like to see the Sharks beat the Stars to that has been a fun series to watch. Who do you guys got winning the cup now that the Wild are out?

Pens, Detroit, and Dallas look very good. The next round will be awesome!

If Detroit or Pittsburgh wins, I'll be happy. \:\) If Detroit doesn't beat Dallas in the next round, they don't deserve to win.

Why do Pens fans boo Jaromir Jagr? That's a great question. When he played in Pittsburgh, he was a major reason why the Pens won 2 Stanley Cups. During the playoffs one year, he refused to let a sore groin stop him from playing. I am sure the non-bandwagon fans are not the ones booing him. It is probably the 'younger' fans that have just jumped on board with the recent successes of the Penguins. They need to realize Jagr based his decision to get out of Pittsburgh mainly on a business move to look out for himself. Most of us have made many career changes in an attempt to better ourselves. Years from now these 19 & 20 year old so-called fans better not step into McDonald's for a hamburger... they may get the 'same' treatment.

7-1 Detroit leads in game 4, leading 3 games to none. What a blow out! \:D

That was quite a thumping by Detroit. The Rangers delayed the inevitable by getting a win against the Pens last night, but I think that Pittsburgh will finish them off at home in Game 5.

    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
