Man Undresses Man In Igloo, Thousands Cheer
A Russian guy undressed a Czech guy last night and I screamed celebration. Wait, that didn’t come out right.
It sounded better last night when announcer Paul Steigerwald described how Evgeni Malkin of the Pittsburgh Penguins took the final shot of the game last evening while Thomas Vokoun of the Florida Panthers laid sprawled out on the ice of Mellon Arena. Penguins win 4-3.
That’s two Pens games in a row concluding with a brilliant move against a confused goaltender. Sidney Crosby made Washington netminder Jose Theodore look silly on Sunday.
So the streak continues, and the Boys of Winter have won 9 of their last 10 as Florida, New York, and Buffalo fade. The Canadiens were also struggling but managed a tough OT win last night under replacement coach Bob Gainey. Guy Carbonneau was fired on March 10.
The red hot Penguins now sit four points out of 4th place in the Eastern Conference yet only two points from falling into 10th. They’ll be fine as long as they keep moving at the same throttle level Tyler Kennedy has recently discovered.
