Penguins - 5, Bruins - 4 (SO)

This game was just INSANE! The whole game was just crazy. Crosby and Malkin have their way with the Bruins in the first period. Laraque and Chara's failed attempts to fight. Crosby finishing up the Gordie Howe hat trick by bloodying Andy Ference. Crosby fighting? And not only fighting but winning? The whole game seemed to be going the Penguins' way. But then we were reminded that the Penguins can't play a whole game. Although we escaped with a win, we should hang our heads for giving up a 4-goal lead. The game should have never made it to overtime. But Kris Letang becomes the hero again. He's 3 for 3 in shootouts. This guy has some wicked moves. Why is he a defensemen? Seriously, maybe we should be looking at him to be Crosby's wingman.

Kris Letang > Ryan Whitney

Let's hope Mark Eaton is ok. If we lose our only true defensive defensemen... we are in some deep trouble.
