Penguins: 3-1-0

In a wonderful rebound, the Penguins rectified the mistakes they made against Phoenix and held on for the win.

The game's 3 Stars
1)Evgeni Malkin
2)MA Fleury
3)Danielle Briere




Thoughts on the game
-Letang is really looking awesome.
-Nice to see the Powerplay look good, but the PK still sucked and the Penguins took entirely too many penalties again
-How about Goligoski's first goal of the season? Goligoski > Coburn
-Fleury has really continued to look solid. He didn't have a chance on about half those goals. Still, gotta expect there are people who want to bring back Tommy B
-Scott Hartnell is an absolute asshole. But he also got me a lot of PIM in my Fantasy Hockey Leagues
-Would have expected more fights in a Pittsburgh-Philly tilt
-Though if there were more fights, the Flyers wouldn't have gotten penalties. The officiating in this game was atrocious. The refs seemed to be playing to the Philly fans
-How about Jordan Staal's goal? I haven't seen stuff like that from him since his rookie year. Is this the sign that he's ready to score some big-time goals? Lets hope so.
-By the way, Jordan Staal looks AWESOME on Malkin's line. Let's keep that together, shall we?
-Finally, why is Dupuis not getting benched to allow someone else some icetime once in a while?
