Orange Chrushed


HUGE WIN! The Pittsburgh Penguins got a huge win last night in Philadelphia to take a 3-1 series lead back to Burgh for a game 4 showdown on Thursday night. After a scoreless first period the Pens drew first blood in the second period with a goal from “The Sid” which was reviewed and was decided a good goal and took the hostel cheese steak eating crowd out of it. Later in the second period the Tyler Kennedy scored is second goal of the playoffs as the Pens took a 2-0 lead going into the 3rd period.

In the third period the Flyers decided to start playing as they were peppering M.A.F. but like a brick way he did his job. Daniel Carcillo picked up the lone Flyers goal in the third period to make it 2-1 Pens. With time running out for the Flyers they decided to pull the goalie to gain the man advantage, but a miss played puck in the neutral zone gave Max Talbot the easy empty-netter goal to seal the 3-1 victory for the Pens.

In conclusion this was a big win for the Pens as they can go back to the friendly confines if the Mellon Arena and finally finish off those fruits from Philly. Huge props to M.A.F. to step it up in this critical game with 46 great saves with most of them he didn’t even see coming. Lets keep it rolling in to Thursday night at home. Go Pens!
