RECAP. Killed Off. Pens WIN

Pens made their second trip to Carolina last night to take on the Hurricanes hoping for a different result then last time.  They would get it.

Not much happened in the 1st period.

Craig Adams got the Pens on the board first after he one timed a Sidney Crosby pass past Brian Boucher to make it 1-0 Pens.

Fun Fact.  The Pens are now 6-1 after last night when Craig Adams scores a goal.  (Not including playoffs)

Carolina tied it late in the 2nd on a delayed penalty call.

Then in the 3rd Fulton Reed...I mean Aaron Asham launched a bomb that beat Boucher to make it 2-1 Pens.

Later Pascal Dupuis would score to get get his like 23425 point this season to make it 3-1 Pens.

It looked as if James Neal made it 4-1 Pens but the goal was waived off because Malkin "interfered" with Boucher.

The Cane would score another to bring the scored to 3-2.

The Pens would have to kill off a 5 on 3 with under 2 minutes left.  It would eventually become a 6 on 3 when Carolina pulled Boucher.  Neither team would get anything and Johnny had to make a spectacular save to keep the lead for the Pens.  The Pens would hold on to win 3-2.

Quick Thoughts

  • Simon Despres is playing some good hockey.
  • Paul Martin had a solid game last night.
  • Staal and Engelland both got hurt during the game.
Bruins Flyers Isles and Wangs up next.  Unlimited hate coming through.

Go Pens
