Last night in Pittsburgh, the Penguins seemed to be dominating the game right from the start. Jordan Staal and Tyler Kennedy scored the only goals for the Penguins in the 2-1 victory. At this time last year the Penguins were eliminated in game 6 against Detroit but according to Sidney Crosby the Penguins were not thinking about last year."We weren't thinking about last year at all," Sidney Crosby said. "But we found a way to survive. And now it's anyone's game. It's going to be a great challenge." Through this series it's always been the home team that have won the games. But is that a good or bad thing for the Penguins? I'll let you decide.
In the 2-1 Penguins victory they received a bit of luck. Just look at what happend in the second period. Henrik Zetterberg had a break away and he rang it right off the post."Those things happen," said Red Wings head coach Mike Babcock after the game. "I thought they were better than us, though, at the start of the game, probably, for the first almost 32 minutes. They won more races and more battles, had more play, were on top of us more, and they kept us to the outside. I thought we started to build some momentum at the end of the second period, and then obviously we had a good third period." Game 7 will be this Friday in Detroit.
