> yea i thought save the final 4 minutes detroit had the 1st period, and the 2nd was pretty even but the penguins were the ones getting on the board, same with the 3rd which i thought detroit won as well. but if you aren’t scoring you can “win” as many periods if you want your still gonna lose… lol datsyuk had some pretty moves in that game though, i really have enjoyed watching him and zetterberg

their second goal came off a REAL nice move…iirc, but it might have been a move in the 3rd that only resulted in a chance.

yea the one that resulted in the chance where they hit the post, datsyuk made a nice move up on the defenseman at the top of the circle to get in closer for the shot, had a couple of nice ones behind the net as well like when he set up stuart in the 1st i believe it was

yep sidney sanchez…

i was partial to the 5 hits in a row brooks oprik laid in his single shift

pitt has already est that they can win at home… to me, the game on sat is not what dictates if the pens are back in this, its what they do in detroit in game 5. in no way am i counting the pens out, but lets hope last night gave them the confidence boost they needed

I think the Penguins not scoring in 1:21 of 5 on 3 pretty much concludes this series.

Red Wings D \> Penguins O.

malkin needs to sit a game. hes not producing anything, and his going to the bench after getting burnt on the odd man rush was garbage.

that 5 on 3 kill was HUGE for detroit and pittsburghs confidence.

all the talk bout pittsburgh being back next year is weak. theyre going to lose so many players to FA. everyone thought the sens were gonna be back again, and after they lost their players, what happend to them…

malkin admitted last series that he was already getting burnt out, not suprised he’s kinda disappeared like that. unfortunately i missed this game, how did it play out? i managed to see the hudler goal as i was walking into pepsi center tho.

even though well lose hossa and probably malone, theres no reason we cant contend next year. we made the playoffs without crosby and hossa, i think we can do it without malone. not to mention weve still got a lot of young talent, the Wilkes Berre pens are in the calder cup as well. idk there are a lot of good ufas this year, well have to see how the offseason plays out.
