The Crosby Count

Did you see the Canadiens play the Penguins? The Habs were up 3-0 and let the Pens come back on them.

Then we're treated to a whale of a shootout. It took 8 rounds before anyone scored. Some great saves by Dany Sabourin and Carey Price. Price, in particular, looked awesome. He simply would not move first. Crosby and Malkin ended up not knowing what to do with the puck in the shootout because Price simply outwaited them. That kid is the real deal.

The Crosby Count

The Penguins beat the New York Rangers last night. The score? 1-0.

Seriously? 1-0? With Sidney Crosby, Jaromir Jagr, Malkin, Gomez, Drury, Shanahan, and Sykora on the ice? All that talent on the ice, and only one goal scored?

C'mon. I mean . . . sheesh.

The Crosby Count

I was really expecting more offense from the Pens this year. I'm glad they beat Washington, yeah, but with Crosby, Ovechkin, and Malkin on the ice, I expected the score to be bigger than 2-1.

Oh, well, at least the Kid nabbed an assist.
