There’s an old football adage attributable to one-time Steelers owner Bert Bell. “On any given Sunday, any team can beat any other team.” Unfortunately that saying proved out in reverse for our Penguins yesterday afternoon at Wells Fargo Center.
With a golden opportunity to secure two points and control our postseason destiny, we fumbled the ball…or the puck as the case may be…en route to a disquieting 4-1 loss to the Flyers.
The last-place Flyers. The Flyers who only recently lost six games in a row and 11 of 13. The Flyers who hadn’t won at home in over a month.
