Penguins Down 1-0

Just a little break from the outdoors to take some time to mention The Penguins.
The Penguins lost 3-2 yesterday to The Washington Capitols. Allot of fans are probably worried after a loss. To me I see allot of hope.

The Penguins had more shots, won more face offs, forced more breakaways, threw hits at every opportunity, yet still lost the game. They were beaten by spectacular saves, and poor finishing. I saw allot of promise in the way that they forced the rookie sensation Vrarlamov, who played superbly. After almost being beaten several times, he failed to challenge the attack, and stayed in the net. The Penguins will take advantage of that in game two, and come to Pittsburgh 1-1.

They did very well in keeping Ovechkin to just one goal who for the most part was not a factor in the game. Poor power play and costly penalties is what lost the game. If they can come out shooting and play with same intensity on Monday, I smell a victory.
Pittsburgh in Six.
