As soon as FSN opened its' telecast of the game with a shot of a bunch of flamingos chilling outside of the arena in Florida, you knew you were in for two and a half of the gayest hours of your life.
Tomas Vokoun didn't disappoint. 2 games this weekend, 2 unreal performances by goaltenders who are looking to put their subpar hockey teams' playoff hopes on their shoulders and get to the promised land.
Bottom line, whoever gets Florida or Carolina in the 1st round of the playoffs only needs to worry about 1 positional player: the goaltender.
Geno was held scoreless for the 2nd game in a row. OVugly had 2 points today, putting him within 4 of Malkin in the race for the Ross.
From here on out, it's win and you're in for the Pens.
Considering they've got two games against the cellar-dwellers of the Eastern Conference coming up, you'd like to think they'll have a playoff berth clinched before the middle of next week.
However, Tampa will probably call up some guy from the ECHL and he'll make 50 saves in a 2-1 victory and Richard Park will score 7 goals to propel the Isles past the Pens on fan appreciation night at the Mellon, because let's face it, after all the ups and downs of this season, would you really expect anything less?
To top it all off, tomorrow is Monday. Balls.
Don't count your chickens before you make scrambled eggs or something like that.
Let's Go Pens.
