Canadiens - 3, Penguins - 2

I didn't get a chance to watch this game. (I was at Disney.) But from what I've been hearing, the Pens didn't put out a consistent effort. It's only 3 games into the season, but there should be some concern here. Only a handful of teams can rival the amount of talent that is on this team. No teams should better than this team. And if you lose to a team that's not better than you, it means one thing. You didn't put in the effort. What's with the Penguins? Is it overconfidence? Are they buying into all the hype? Yes, they have the talent to be Stanley Cup contenders but you need effort to go along with that talent. They need to play the full 60 minutes. The Penguins have shown bursts where they are just unstoppable and then they shows lapses in judgment and carelessness. I hope that message gets to them soon. We can't afford a slow start.

But to keep the excitement up, here's the video the Pens played just before their home opener. It's awesome!
