That 6 minute span after that was probably the greatest Penguin hockey I’ve seen thus far in the playoffs. GO PENS!

Let’s give some credit to the Pens for putting to sleep that “mystique” of the Red Wings.
Yet, all we’ve accomplished so far is the same as they did—- hold serve at home. NOW it’s time to be ROAD WARRIORS. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see more PENS fans heading to Detroit this weekend.

The play was going the other way and the crowd wasn’t as loud. Compared to the atmosphere in and outside of the Igloo most everyone was in a bit of a lull until Staal scored the shortie. Then it exploded again. It isn’t “MAY” have become the pivotal point it was clearly the pivotal point.

I don’t think the shots on net is indicative of anything other than one team gets up a goal or two then goes into a defensive shell. It goes to show how important it is to get the lead, that’s for sure.

Tyler Kennedy out hustled the Detroit D to get to the puck on the goal he scored. The Penguins need to use their speed to their advantage like that more often. Detroits D is slowing down as the series progresses.
