Perhaps the biggest single win for the Pens this season going all the way back to Thanksgiving night when we beat those bastard Senators, 6-5 in a shootout.
Last night, we looked shell shocked after Sid went down. 15 seconds into tonight, we lose Colby. Tonight was all guts. Pure passion. Proud as a frickin peacock type effort. The Pens ride a 4th line goal from Jeff Taffe, and play disciplined hockey the rest of the way throughout for the 2 points. 1st place, fuckos!
How the crap is Gino Malkin not one of the 3 stars on the night? I thought those them Montreal folk knew their hockey. Malkin was a stud...stepped it up HUGE in 87's absence. Oh, well. The more he gets passed over, the better he plays.
I imagine 71 will finally get the nod to participate in next week's All-Star game, with Crosby being out. But seriously...who cares. I hope he doesn't. I hope he rejects the opportunity. F 'em. F 'em in the other ear. Fact of the matter is, Malkin's one of the top 10 players in the NHL...today. If the NHL doesn't want to recognize this for some crazy reason, then let him rest his legs and come back even stronger after the break.
Kudos to Sabourin as well. Conklin's run had to end at some point, and he looked tired last night. Give Conks the night off, and let him come back against those crazy Capitals Monday.
I luv this fookin team.
