Disappointment. Pens LOSE

 2
1

The guys over at Pensblog said it best.  "Can't really find the perfect word to describe this loss.  Terrible.  Stupid.  Disappointing.  Frustrating."  Those are all good words to describe this loss.  The Pens had a 1-0 lead.  They were on a power play with under 2 minutes to play.  Vokoun was playing lights out.  The defense was fantastic for the most part.  But one little brain fart is the different between the Pens having a chance to close this out Wednesday night and this potentially being 2-2 going back to Pittsburgh.  

This game was a goaltending clinic.  Craig Anderson and Tomas Vokoun had their balls in everyone's mouths.  They were matching each other save for save.  TK sniped one late in the 2nd to make it 1-0 Pens.  That lead stood until under 30 second left in the game when Daniel Alfredsson scored SHORT FUCKING HANDED to tie the game.  

We all love Geno here.  BUT.  He didn't mark Alfie going to the net.  Everyone watched the puck and Alfie was in all alone and deflected a sick pass from Milan Michalek past Tomas Vokoun to tie the game.  

After a scoreless first OT the Sens won it when Colin Greening beat Vokoun.  Vomit.
