Penguins 3 - Flyers 2: Another Day, Another Win!
This is a habit that doesn't need to be broken, right? Beating the Philadelphia Flyers, no matter how much they suck, is always as much fun as eating a Tootsie Roll.
With a 3-2 win over the Flyers, the Flyers remain in last place in the NHL! I just love typing that.
LAST PLACE IN THE NHL!!! BAAAAAHAAA! Stupid Flyers...
*ahem*
El Sid played a nice 23:07 and finished with 1 goal and 1 assist with a +2 and his usual lone minor penalty.
Game Recap:
Sidney Crosby, Jordan Staal and Evgeni Malkin all scored goals Monday night to give the Penguins a 3-2 win over the Flyers at Mellon Arena.
Malkin (2004), Crosby (2005) and Staal (2006) are the Penguins’ most-recent first-round picks. All three helped the Penguins snap their five-game losing skid.
“For the most part, I thought we did a great job doing what we needed to do – using our speed and keeping the game simple,” said Crosby, who added an assist as well. “No win is easy. I think we’re happy to be able to pull that one out.”
The Penguins (8-6-2) posted a 39-25 advantage in shots – after struggling to get shots on goal in their losing skid.
“It’s something we need to work on,” Crosby said. “We made it pretty close to 40 shots. It’s definitely a positive thing.”
LAST PLACE IN THE FREAKIN' NHL, SON!
