Tonight's game..
..is a “must win!” I would hate to see the Pens go back to Pittsburgh down 0-2 in this series. If they lose tonight, it might start eating away at their confidence, which is probably where their inexperience could cause the team problems. I think game 1 enabled the Pens to get a feel for playing against The Redwings, but now they need to adjust their game so they can skate effectively and get the win. I see that Therrien has made adjustments to the lines, which I’m not sure I agree with, but I guess we’ll just have to wait and see how these changes affect their game.


New lines for tonight’s game:
Crosby, Hossa and Malone
Malkin, Sykora and Talbot
Staal, Kennedy and Dupuis
Roberts, Hall, Ruutu
Let’s hope that Fleury can skate onto the ice at the beginning of the game without falling on his face! OUCH!
GO PENS!!!!!!
