Penguins do it again!!!!!

The Pittsburgh Penguins recorded their 5th straight victory last night at the Consol Energy Center against the NY Islanders. They were down 2-0 in the third before Chris Kunitz put a rebound goal in to make it 2-1. Then shortly after the Pens went on the power play, they scored another goal from league leading goal scorer James Neal to tie the game at 2-2. The Penguins continue to get productive play from all their lines, and even their blue-liners are starting to join the rush and get scoring chances as well.

Not only did Pittsburgh's goalie, Marc-Andre Fleury make timely key saves to keep the game tied, the main superstar on the ice was Evgeni Malkin. Malkin was skating with a purpose and had many scoring chances throughout the game. It wasn't until overtime that " Geno " had his best scoring chance of the entire game. Geno circled his own goalie and carried the puck the whole way down the ice to get a great shot on the Islanders goaltender, but the shot failed to go in. But, when Malkin had the chance in the shootout, he took advantage and slipped a nice shot in passed the goalie to ultimately win the shootout 1-0. Penguins continue to roll despite the fact that their still missing their best player in Sidney Crosby, but his return will be very soon. Pens fans should be very excited for the way their hockey team is playing, " I know I am." GO PENS...
