Conklin demoted
The Pittsburgh Penguins have cut their training camp roster to 30 players, it was announced Saturday by Executive Vice President/General Manager Ray Shero.
Nine players have been assigned to the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins, the American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate of the Pittsburgh Penguins.
The nine players assigned to Wilkes-Barre/Scranton include; forwards Connor James, Tyler Kennedy, Chris Minard, Jeff Taffe, and Tim Wallace; defensemen Alex Goligoski, Ryan Lannon, and Ben Lovejoy; goaltender Ty Conklin.
Dany Sabourin has won the battle of the backups and will open the bench door for Marc-Andre Fleury for most of this season.
Conklin had a familiar response to the news:

That never stops being funny.
Where did those beauties come from, anyway. They are spectacular.
The real story here is this: Penguins have back-up and third stringer as their goalies which is a shame.
Gretzky started with Moog and Fuhr, Crosby get these jokers. Nice.
Calling Fleury a "joker" is a little strong. He's a good goalie.
Gretzky started with Low, Favell and LoPresti.
Andy Moog started 1980 and Fuhr 1981 so it's quite early in Gretzky's NHL career.
Cruel... but funny.

There was a website but it seems to have disappeared ??? It had a few that weren't on YouTube including some for the 06-07 playoffs that were pretty funny, too.
The vids used to be on my-nhl.com, although now it's hosted on Heavy.com. The 06-07 set was good, but I liked the originals better.
