Ummmm.... Game 2 Habs vs Pens 5/2/10

Well....few words...so pics again....

The Pens just opened this game like a ....

Pens just owned on the forecheck....Habs just getting beaten down..

Then a faceoff outside the Montreal zone, Talbot ends up with the puck slips a nifty pass to the unseen...

One nifty forehand to backhand tuck between Halak's pads  1-0 Pens

Momentum would change significantly on 1 fateful call

2 for Interference, penalty killed....

This would be the time when this guy took over...

Several obvious non-calls hooking, holding, interference...whatever...

15:48 - Gomez pops out a nifty pass from behind the net....

 Gionta with a nifty stutter shot, puts it behind Fleury 1-1 Tied Up

End of the 1st

Habs outshot the Pens 12 - 9

Pens come out with guns blazing and forcing the play and getting shot after shot on Halak, nothing...Almost like watching the Caps in Rd 1 Game 7.

Not even halfway through the period, Cammalleri decides this is the time.....

Orpik 2 Minutes for Interference

12 seconds into the Power Play....

With a sharp redirect of the puck....

Camel Toe Strikes  2-1 Habs

Pens continue to press, nothing going but finally...

This guy went home before the end of the Second, Pens will start the 3rd on a PP

Pens PP to start the 3rd.....

Pens would continue to press throughout the 3rd getting 2 more Power Plays...

Habs are just not folding to the pressure, Halak has now turned from goalie into...

Late in the period, a bad turnover.... all alone

3-1 Habs.....Lights out, sweet Pens

See you on Tuesday

I'd talk about Craig Adams but whatever, 5 minute PP in which Montreal just played keep away...Bergeron is ok, so deal with it.

Pens outshot the Habs 39-21

Habs did the same thing to the Pens that they did to the Caps in their last 2 games of round 1. Kept the Pens shooting from low percentage areas and mostly on the perimeter.

I blame this game on the fact that I did NOT have a beer until late in the 2nd period.

I further blame this game on a phone call from my ex-wife, who is a known karma killer, just before game time. 

These things will not happen again... I promise
