Datsyuk: Scrawny No Longer

He may be “past his prime”, according to John Buccigross and any idiot Pens blogger with access to a computer in between PE and the day’s first recess, but as the Boston Globe found out…his conditioning is as good as any player’s in the league.
The Wings’ workout room is located next to the main dressing room. Several of the Bruins have remarked on Pavel Datsyuk’s strength, so I took a peek at part of the center’s workout. First, while lying on the reverse incline bench, Datsyuk ripped off a string of situps while gripping a 45-pound plate to his chest. Minutes later, Datsyuk took two 45-pound plates, held them over his head, and swung his torso in circles. It’s all about core strength, and given the glimpse at his workout, it’s not surprising that Datsyuk is one of the league’s strongest players on the puck.

Datsyuk is f*cking awesome. He’s the hardest working forward on the Wings and has done nothing so far to fall out of contention for a third consecutive Selke trophy. He sees the ice as well as anybody and knows how to thread the needle with a pass. He’s a beast with the puck and slippery on the boards.

I’m still watching and getting excited by his take away from the second period against the flames when he came off the bench and Homer got the goal. Bloody slick move.

Would anyone familiar with the paysite (i.e. the forbidden site; the one that causes Happy Smiles) be able to answer a couple questions?
I’m going to be out of town (oot) tomorrow for the start of the game but want to take my laptop so I can watch & LB. I’m guessing I can find an unsecured wireless modem to piggyback off of at my oot location but I’m not sure what impact this may have on my account. I know when you hit 3 IPs, you’re cancelled. Not good. So I want to make sure I can do what I plan to do without jeopardizing my account.
Is it a matter as simple as clicking on the “IP Exceptions” when I logon from the oot location and clicking “Add Exceptions”? (I’m assuming the IP I’m on at the moment will be automatically listed?)
And does this effect my home (original? / primary?) IP? (Do I need to do anything when I get back home for the end of the game and logon, such as “Update Exception”? Or just logon as normal, allow it to recognize my home IP and let the exception expire?)
Any help would be appreciated.
(Feel free to PM me if we want to keep this off the comments.)

Seen it now Drew - Love it. I don’t know which dive is funnier: the one at 2.17 or the one at 2.50.
