On a side note, you guys are giving me some place to go try from when I go down for the April 5th game vs Carolina... Going to have to make a list of all them. Tourist steaks. Pat's and Geno's ... of these I prefer Pat's 1237 E Passyunk Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19147 A lot of the snobby locals like Jim's steaks and they're very good 400 South Street , but there are other locations. I always felt drugged after eating at Delassandro's, now that's only been twice, but we used to shoot at a Rite Aid nearby on occasion, and right about 2:30 everyone would lose focus and the grips would be nodding off. The food was good, but we always felt like hell after eating there. Also if you're staying near the Wells Fargo Center, I think there's a chickies and pete's that's pretty fun.

Where are you hanging out for the Stanley Cup Parade? I think I'm starting out at Broad & Locust and then maybe shadowing the parade from there. After that, I'm not sure. How about you? Ok bud that is 3 in a row now the longest WINNING streak of the year!!! Now you have my blessing to plan the parade!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the back of the restaurant they have a mural sized picture of the owner standing in front of Gino's eating a cheesesteak. When you look close at the picture the wrapper on his cheesesteak is from Pats! Freaking hilarious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OccamsRazor Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 Wow in all of my excitement i had forgot all 3 wins were on the road too! Good job! Now they are finding ways to win i hate they have to take 5 days off. Oh well rest up get some sleep in their own bed they deserve it. Toronto will be waiting come Tuesday!

When I was working for Rite Aid, the DMs would always be telling us to go to these "other" places 'cause the steaks were better. So we tried a bunch of them, the one guy was a big Tony Luke's fans and would always try to take us there. There was a guy who was pretty good at driving Rx business in the Germantown area so it wasn't too far to Delassandro's . We only ate there a couple of times like I said. Those were long days too, so it might not have been the food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I worked at Rite Aid corporate in Camp Hill over twenty years ago. Very very briefly because we moved. No idea now, but then it was a pretty good place to work.

murraycraven Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I don' t know about a parade by I am darn certain that Dale Weise is about to break out and become a solid 20-25 goal scorer. Chances are Elliot has just not found his niche and now he has in Philly - Tim Thomas Part Deux. All of this as McDonald came back and foind his game - Norris Trophy Finalist for sure.

FD19372 Posted December 15, 2017 Share Posted December 15, 2017 They're playing very good, intelligent and inspired hockey these days. Before I dare say they're a "playoff team" again, I want to see how they play against the LA Kings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonight was not good hockey. In fact, it was crap. I know good teams find a way to win even when they're not playing well. Playing a crap team doesn't hurt, either.
