Okay, now I’m worried.
I’ve purposely refrained from being too hard on our Penguins, given their banged-up state. And there was a lot to like about last night’s 4-3 shootout victory over the Rangers at Madison Square Garden. A win that enabled us to continue our mastery of the Blueshirts and one-time nemesis Henrik Lundqvist.
But my, was there ever cause for alarm. Such all three Penguins conspiring to get on the wrong side of the puck in overtime, allowing the Rangers a clear-cut 3-on-(oh my goodness) the opposite way. How goalie Matt Murray kept his considerable cool and stopped Michael Grabner with a sliding glove save, I’ll never know.
