Tom Kuhnhackl did this for both home games, and it's hilarious. So funny in the first one when he momentarily pauses drinking so he could yell Sidney Crosby's name:

Vince Williams deserves all the peanut M&Ms for his tweets:
If the empowerment of women makes you feel uncomfortable as a man you have some serious issues.

I see guys get frustrated about women being pro-woman and it’s the craziest thing. How can self love bother a person so much? Clearly guys have mommy issues.
