Penguins Win Cup
In a terrific finish to a terrific season, the Pittsburgh Penguins are champions of hockey. Even with Sidney Crosby hurt, sitting out most of the second and third periods, the Penguins found a way to persevere, capped off by an amazing last second save by Marc-Andre Fleury on Nik Lidstrom. I'm an unabashed Pens hater--as a Ranger fan, you almost have to hate them. But, they deserved to win, and I congratulate them. I cannot wait until next season.
Thanks for returning to The Blog of Champions!
Can Penguins Force Game 7?
Can the Penguins force a Game 7 against the Red Wings? Or will the be forced to watch the Wings celebrate in Pittsburgh once again? To go to game 7, Marc-Andre Fleury has to step up his game. He can't let soft goals. He needs to be the backbone of his team. Evegni Malkin needs to stay out of the box and start scoring and distributing. Sidney Crosby needs a big game. The Red Wings are tough, experienced, resilient. The Pens might need a miracle to win. We shall see.
