Blues @ Pens Recap

Pens meet the Blues for the first time this season. And the last. Jay McKee's playing against his former teamates, as is Darryl Sydor and Ty Conklin. Pens win this game, and Fleury's gonna win the Vezina. I'm putting money on this. The game itself had too many chances for each team to list, so this is really just significant plays. Seriously, this is a game you had to watch to be able to digest properly.

Bettis and Lemieux: Both Pittsburgh legends, both helped a team win a championship in Detroit.

First Period:

Crosby makes a huge play on Mason with a near breakaway, but passes and Mason drops it.

Goligoski dives and makes a huge block on Crombeen.

Kennedy scores! Shot it top shelf gloveside so hard he broke the space-time continuum. McKee and Eaton with the assists.
Pens 1-0

McDonald high sticks Orpik.

Malkin scores on the PP! Pretty much got his own rebound of his own rebound and scores top shelf. Guerin and Crosby with the assists.
Pens 2-0

Some dickbag had his stick wrapped around Craig Adams' head, but the refs didn't give a crap.

Rupp and Backes almost go at it. Fight's broken up before it started.

End of the First.
Pens 2-0

Letang's showing these fools how to dangle.

Second Period:

Pens swarm Mason, no goals come out. Malkin stops play by high sticking the puck.

Fleury loses his stick on a sick save.

Feds goes topshelf on Mason on another PP. Oh, and he scored. Tanger and Eaton with the assists.
Pens 3-0

Only seconds later, Cooke deflects a Tanger shot into the net. Staal gets the other assist.
Pens 4-0

Paul Kariya scores. Crap.
Pens 4-1

Mason made a batshit save against Goligoski.

End of Second Period.

Mason didn't see too many of these tonight. Nah, in all fairness, he played a pretty good game.

Third Period:

Fleury is bombarded with shots.

I missed about 5 minutes of the period due to a computer shut-down, but I began watching at about 11 minutes in.

Kunitz gives it to Crosby, Crosby gives it to Goligoski, he scores!
Pens 5-1

Dupuis gets a breakaway and does what he does best: screwed up a great oppurtunity.

Pens decided to turn the game into a soccer match, with all the back and forth opportunities that everyone misses.

McKee is the man.

Pens win 5-1.

I wasn't kidding.

Notes:
Pens won. EVERYTHING!
Crosby is amazing, but you already knew that.
McKee is now to be known by me as Ganon. Zelda fans should understand why.
Shortest recap I've done to date.
This is rediculously short, I'm telling you people, WATCH THIS GAME IT WAS AMAZING!!!
Just skip the last 10 of the third.
