Yup, that is a correct score.
For the 1st time ever at home, the Dallas Stars lost a shootout, going down 4-3 to the Pens.
MAF stoned Zubov, Jokinen and Ribiero during the shootout, while the most reliable Penguin on the shootout, Erik Christensen, scored again on his attempt, and that was all the Pens needed.
To be quite honest, I'm in a state of shock.
The best shootout team in the NHL, against one of the worst ??
What was that saying about the sun shining on a dog's ass ?? Well, let's not go that far, but this was a great two points to get.
Pretty physical game, some good checks on both sides of the ice. That former Capital punk-ass Jeff Halpern and Sid were sparring quite a bit early in the game.
And congrats to the old man Mark Recchi, who got two more goals tonight for #500 for his career. Class act, and a great role model for the youngsters, some of which are young enough to be his sons.
What a pleasant surprise, and sure to be a great confidence boost to the young Pens, who have to get right back on the plane and head west once again to take on Phoenix tomorrow night.
