Friday night the Pens get blown out by the Wild 6-2. Last night the Pens beat the Devils 4-3 in a shootout in a game which they totally dominated (the Devils goalie faced almost 50 shots and was fantastic keeping them in the game). I have no idea why the Pens have been so inconsistent lately.
The only thing for certain is that Sidney Crosby is currently playing at a level very few players ever attain. He scored the game tying goal (his league leading 15th) against the Devils with 14 seconds left in the game on a backhand shot that was unbelievable. Sid leads the NHL in goals by 3 over the next closest players despite the fact that he's played in fewer games than any of the other leaders.

Sitting down for some Hockey Night in Canada. My Bruins already won today, the Pens are getting ready to play (I don't have that game here) and the Leafs/Canucks are getting ready for the puck to drop.
Anyone watching? |

I have the NHL Center Ice package. I'm watching the Sens vs Panthers, and bouncing occasionally to the Leafs vs Canucks. Ottawa is doing very well. They're buying into and executing Guy Boucher and Mark Crawford's system, and are also starting to generate some good offence, which they have the firepower to get the job done.

Pens are down to the Wings 3-1 after 2 periods. Wings are skating well and their goalie has been very tough. So far the pre-game festivities with most of the Pens '91 and '92 Cup winning team members being honored and in attendance has been the highlight of my evening. Wow! Paul Coffey looks like he could lace up the skates and play the third period tonight for the Pens.

The Pens come back in the third period to beat the Wings 5-3! Holy smoke, that is now the 5th time this year that the Pens have come from being down by 2 goals in a game to win! I suppose it would be better if they wouldn't allow themselves to get behind in the first place but it sure makes for an exciting game to watch.

I'm only partly sorry I missed the Pens game last night. I actually got engrossed in the Penn State/Wisconsin game last night and don't regret it a bit. Did the PK improve any? How about the D?
I'm excited for tomorrow's game; my wife won tickets from a raffle in work and we're taking my 9yo down to the arena. He's probably not going to be into it but it's my first time going to a game. I hope it's at least partly kid-friendly.

Nice to hear that you've scored tickets for Monday's Pens' game. It should be a good one. Ottawa is having a better season than most expected. Senators defenseman Erik Karlsson is one of the most exciting players in the NHL and the Sens have been hot lately. As for the PPG Paints Arena it is from my experience there a very kid and family friendly place with a great atmosphere. Just be sure to bundle up as it's pretty cold in the building even with a sellout crowd. Hope you have a great time and bring back a Pens win!

Pens beat the Sens 8-5 in a wild and wooley one!! Looked like a track meet at times.
Kwakatak, I envy you being at that one. Hope you and family had a good time and brought a spare cap to toss onto the ice when Bryan Rust scored his hat trick.

Laine (Winnipeg) is having an outstanding rookie year. He's now tied with Crosby for the goal league and has 25 points too. Exciting year for the league's young guns.

A hat trick and a penalty shot. Not too bad to witness on MY first Pens game. My 9yo was out of his mind over the crowd's excitement.
