Pens Win...and then take a hard loss...

The Pens won VS. the Bruins 3-0 this Thursday. It was Fleury's first shut-out of the year. Tensions were high this game. The last time they fought, Matt Cooke accidentally injured Marc Savard.  Shawn Thornton took up his cause and faced-off with cookie 5 seconds into his first shift. No one really won it.
"We expected it to be intense and emotional but we were prepared to play hockey," Sidney Crosby said.
The Penguins scored once in each period - goals by TK,  Poni and Rupper.

Then, on Saturday, they faced Carolina.  Zach Boychuk of the Canes drew first blood.  Then, Jordan Stall met the blow with a nice goal assisted by  Poni and Sid. Then, Gino scored assisted by Fedotenko and...yet again...  Poni. However, Joni Pitkanen of the Canes scored tieing it up. We went into overtime. With only .09 seconds left, we thought...whew! It's going to a shoot-out...nope! Jamie McBain scored his first NHL goal....a crushing loss for our Pens...yet tonight they battle again...hmmm...Detroit....
