RECAP. Feeling the Blues. Pens LOSE

Yes I just used that title.  Get over it.

St Louis was in town last night.

If you want to see what the first 2 periods looked like, after you eat Thanksgiving dinner, vomit all over yourself. That was the first 2 periods for the Pens.  Horrible passes, players falling everywhere, barely any shots.  Worst period of hockey I've witnessed since 2005 probably.  Some jobber scored in the first after Paul Mart made an awful turnover then deflected the shot and it found it's way passed Fleury.

Pens finally woke up in the 3rd.  Steve Sullivan tied it on the power play.  Someone scored for the Blues to make it 2-1 with about 10 minutes left.  James Neal tied it at 2 with around 5 minutes left.  People actually left the game at this point.  Someone was playing games on an ipad all game long near me.  Game would go to overtime where Alex Pietrangelo would win it for the Blues.

Quick Thoughts
  • Worst game the Pens have played this season.
  • Pens were lucky to get a point
  • Paul Martin has been awful this season
  • MAF was sharp.
  • Brooks Orpik had a monster game.  Wrecked lives in the 3rd 
  • No Points for Crosby.  
Sens come to town tomorrow at 7.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

Go Pens
