A Weekend to Forget for Sid

Canadians celebrated REMEMBRANCE DAY this past Saturday. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a weekend Sid will want to forget after two straight crushing defeats.

Ottawa 6 - Penguins: 3:

The Penguins get outshot 44-17 by a desperate Sens squad and lose big time. The game was actually tied at 2 half-way through before the Sens opened up the fat free can of whoop-ass.

Sidney finished with 1 assist and -2 in 17:36 of ice time.

Hurricanes 6 - Penguins 2:

A poor performance by Jocelyn Thibault combined with offensively crappiness from Sid (a rarity) resulted in a lopsided loss despite the rather even shots on goal totals.

Sidney played just 15:58 and finished -1 with 0 points. On the plus side, Sidney did have 5 of the Penguins 20 shots on goal. Nothin was goin in for our boy, though.

With the pair of losses, the Pens are now under .500 with a 7-6-2 record (Yes, folks, OT losses are LOSSES)
