Here We Go...3-0!!!!!!

The Pens are now 7-0 in the post season, and 3-0 in their series with the Rangers. After last night's game, the Rangers have to be wondering what they have to do to win. They out shot the Pens 39-17, but could not contain the Penguins power play. They won game three 5-3, but it ended up being a special teams game. The Pens killed off 6 Ranger power play opportunities including two 5 on 3's and scored twice on three power plays of their own. The game started off right when Marian Hossa buried one just over a minute into the first. from then on the Pens played great defensively, except for a brief period of time in the second period, but over came adversity and prevailed.
Three stars:

  1. Evgeni Malkin-2 goals, 1 assist
  2. Marc-Andre Fleury-36 saves, .923 sv%
  3. Jaromir Jagr-1 goal, 1 assist (Jagr looked like the Jaromir that Pittsburgh came to know and love...I tip my hat to him on an awesome performance.)
