Thrashers - 4, Penguins - 1

There is adversity and then there's what the Penguins had to deal with tonight. Nothing went right for the Penguins tonight... nothing! The officials might as well have been wearing blue Thrasher jerseys. There was no deliberate kicking motion on Nathan Smith's goal. That should have counted! On two different occasions, a Penguin gets his stick taken away from him and HE get the penalty?! And don't get me started on Jarkko Ruutu's ejection! How do you give a guy a fighting major when he didn't fight? Getting jumped on and punches thrown at you while not fighting back DOES NOT constitute a fight! That hit on Kovalchuk shouldn't even be a penalty and he gets ejected for it? Nice. This was just one of those nights that you just take and let go of.
