More & worse injuries on the Pens team.

That too, bill ........but between you and me, there is something just not right with Sid. Yeah he got the only goal last night but it's the misses in the corners and turning over the puck and not solving Turris in the face-off circle, that's not like Sid. The thing going on between Kessel and Malkin also has me puzzled - it led to a goal in Game 2 but didn't work at all last night.

That said, I believe we will see a better prepared Penguins team on Friday. I think Mike Sullivan still has some tricks up his sleeve and the Pens have a history of coming back.

Who wants the Penguins to win anyhow?

Bloody Ducks are in the lead in the 2nd period. Go Preds go!

Evgeni gets our 3rd goal!!!

Now the guys look more like the team I know they can be

Come on Senators, you don't want to lose to those wimps! :)

The team is from Steel Town USA, JLM..........there is no way that they weren't going to come back and give it their best shot........so far, it's working for them.......

And there you go..........with only 1:38 left in the 2nd, Ottawa is on the board.

End of 2nd P: 3 - 1 Penguins :smile:

Tables turned tonight as Eric K gets mouthy........I got a kick out of him aping Sid in the last game when he was yapping too much........the thing is that it is frustration that drives it.....so it is nice to see the mighty Eric a bit rattled.

A couple more goals would be nice Penguins

Sens have the taste of blood now!

Good grief, I hope not.........there have been enough injuries out there tonight......it's a long way to the Cup and these guys are banged up already.

Oh, oh............the Sens just got another goal with only 5:38 left in the 3rd.......dig deep Penguins

6 on 4 to end the game and we hung on by the skin of our teeth..........but we won Game 4......and we are tied once again.

Damn good game Penguins.......you let your foot off the gas a bit in the 3rd but came through when it counted. Would be nice if you could get that 2 many men thing under control...........though it did make for a heart-stopping end to the game.

3-0 and now 3-2...

And, thankfully........that is where it stayed. :smile::smile::smile:

That shot off the post was a heartbreaker for Ottawa.

Goal posts have played a big role in these play-offs, pete..........I imagine they've had a lot of encouragement and petting from the goalies.

I was mad as hell about the 2 many men penalty but really gave those 4 guys credit for standing tall when we most needed them too.

Shame on me for not giving the biggest kudos to Matt Murray without whom we could well be down 3 games

Looks like my Penguins are playing pretty darn good hockey today.

7 - 0 Pittsburgh Penguins in Game 5 and we are going back to Ottawa for Game 6

The Ducks fought all night long but two empty-netters put the icing on the cake for the Nashville Predators who for the first time will advance to the Stanley Cup final. Well done Predators. Well done Pekka.

Our power went out just as the 2nd P came to an end and I had to wait until 24 and a half hours later to find out my Penguins choked and we are off to Game 7 back in Pittsburgh. A win at home would be nice guys.
