Boston 6 - Pens 3: The Curse of Crosby Continues

The Curse of Crosby?

Well, since he's been playing for the Penguins, the flightless birds haven't been able to win a game!!! Sergei Gonchar is turning out to be the biggest bust of the year and is killing fantasy hockey league owners all over North America.

Crosby had a much better game than the last outing as he had assists on 2 of the 3 Penguins goals.

Overall, Crosby played 16:24 and finished with 2 assists, +2, 3 shots, and 1 for 5 on faceoffs.

"I just want to win," said Penguins rookie Sidney Crosby, who had two assists and has points in seven of his eight games. "Team points is what matters."

Crosby, the first pick in this year's draft, assisted on goals by Ryan Malone and Brooks Orpik in the third period after Boston had taken a 5-1 lead. He also missed an excellent chance 1:33 into the third period when he hit the left post on a breakaway.
