RECAP. 1967 Forever. Pens WIN

The Leafs and their dick bag fans invaded Pittsburgh yesterday and if you need a reason to hate the Leafs just got to a Pens/Leafs game next season and watch all the jackasses that show up.  Leafs fans were chanting "Go Leafs Go" in peoples faces last night and in the 3rd period 2 Leafs fans got kicked out of the arena to chants of "67".  Good times.  No for the recap.

1st Period
The Pens dominated the 1st period.  They had 11 shots or something in the first period but couldn't beat Gustavsson.  Brad Thiessen was in goal for his 2nd career start and only faced 2 or 3 shots in the first.  Other than that the 1st was pretty whatever.

2nd Period
Of course the Leafs get the first goal.  Some joke ran over Thiessen and Philol Kesselol got the puck and put it on an empty net.  How that counted is beyond us.  Oh wait its a Canadian team.  1-0 Leafs.  Leafs fans probably thought it was the greatest goal ever.  The Pens had unlimited opportunities to tie the game but couldn't hit the net or miss Gustavsson.  Of course the Leafs would score again.  Graballski who only ever scores against the Pens made it 2-0.  How he's worth 5.5 million dollars is a mystery.  What a joke.  The Pens would finally get on the board.  After about 600 sustained shifts in the Loleafs zone Matt Niskanen put one on net and Pascal Dupuis deflected it in to make it 2-1.  It was all over for Gustavsson at that point.

3rd Period
The Pens tied it early.  Pascal Dupuis found Orpik who put one towards the net and Staal got his stick to the puck and deflected it top shelf on Gustavsson to make it 2-2.  How many goals would Jordan Staal have if he hadn't gotten injured?  Soon after that Pascal Dupuis beat Gustavsson 5-hole to make it 3-2 Pens.  That's all the Pens would need.  Brad Thiessen was solid the rest of the game and robbed the Leafs a few time.  The Pens would hold on to win 3-2.

3 Stars
1.  Pascal Dupuis
2. Jordan Staal
3.  Some Leaf

The Pens next game is against the Southeast Division leading Florida Panthers.  Typing that made me laugh.

Go Pens
