Devils 5, Pens 2

There was not really much to write about in this game as it all went down hill for the Pens after they got the first goal of the game early on a shot by Christensen that fooled Brodeur. After that goal all the bounces went the Devils way, mostly because the Pens announcers were determined to do nothing but give the Devils the luck. Announcing 101 should teach all announcers that if you say that something hasn't happened or will never happen...it WILL happen before the game is over. Stagey, who should know this, stated that the Devils have not score a Power Play goal in a couple of games. About 10 hundreds of a second after the last part of that sentence got out the Devils had scored to make it 1 - 1 on the Power Play. This law only applies to the other team. They also keep saying during the game that the Devil don't score more then 2 goals a game, so against the Pens they score 5. I really wish that the announcer for team take notice of this law.

Fleury did not have a good game at all, stopping only 4 of 8 shots. While a couple were not his fault it just seemed like he was fighting the puck for the short time he was in the game.

Malkin did score his 13th goal of the year on the same day that he was named Rookie of the Month for the second straight month. The question is "If he wins rookie of the month for the whole season, Does he win the Calder by default?". This is a question that needs to be answered.

Next up a chance to redeem themselves against the Islanders who are coming back to Pittsburgh on Saturday...
