Well it looks like the Penguins have tied the series 1-1. It would have been really hard to fight back going down 2 games to 0. Now we are heading back home for the next 2 games. The win will give us momentum going into game 3 and the game is at home so that is an advantage for us. The game starts in about an hour and I am very excited! It’s been the first time in a while pens fans will see the penguins playing a playoff game in Mellon Area. The place should be very, very loud!

Game 2 we saw a different Pittsburgh penguins team. A lot of the players were finishing checks and skating much faster. We also shut down a lot Ottawa’s offense. Compared to the first game they were not in our zone as much. Crosby came out very big in this game. Besides his 1 goal and 1 assist he was stepping up to people and really skating. He even got slashed in the chin, yeah and nothing was called! Also Colby Armstrong really came out to play, you could see the intensity he was bringing to the game. Although getting an assist Evgeni Malkin still has not scored in the series. He needs to really step it up.
