How quickly things can change. One week ago the Penguins ran off an impressive comeback victory over Columbus to run their record to 4-0-1. If our overall game wasn’t airtight, the offensive side of the ledger sure was. Indeed, six-goal outbursts had become the norm.
Meanwhile, the Canucks were in complete disarray. Losers of their first six, with several of the defeats owing to late collapses. Coach Bruce Boudreau’s hide was on the line.
And now? Vancouver appears to have righted the ship, especially following last night’s resounding 5-1 victory over our Pens.
As for the black and gold?
