Step Up, Pittsburgh Edition

I'm gonna start by giving the traditional WOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

The Pens did not bring their A-game tonight, but in the end, talent and heart win out.

The Pens have both.  Now it's 2-0 going to Philthy for Game 3, with a chance to bury them.

LET'S RECAP THIS THING

1st Period-

The Flyers had the early edge it looked like, but MAF held strong.

Scott Upshall and TK go at it, and TK gives him a Pittsburgh ass kicking.  Solid.

Scott Hartnell was up to his usual tricks, cheapshoting all over the lot.

Then lightning struck.  

Flyers fans can call him Cindy, but he doesn't care.  

Sid gets the shot, and gets it to sneak through "French Toast".

Sid scored another, but waved it off due to inconclusiveness.

Tough luck.

The Flyers answered with a goal from Jeff Farter, who takes a pass and buries it.

Tough luck Pens.  We go to the intermission knotted up.

2nd Period-

A bit way through, the Pens get a PP.  Hatcher of course gets in his bitching before he goes off.

A few seconds in, Hossa scores on a rebound.  That's how we roll.  

Hartnell takes a sucker punch on Ruutu as he hides behind the refs.  Coward.

Bitchards picks a Geno pass, and he scores.

3rd Period-

The difference between the Pens and Flyers is that when plays need to be made, the Pens make them, and Philly does not.  

Steve GoesDownie gives it away at the blue line.

WWGRD?

Steal it and assist Talbot in front.  MONEY.

Staal empty netter.  WOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Ballgame.

2-0 Pens.
