It most decidedly wasn’t a very good afternoon for our Penguins. Slammed by a venomous cocktail of a vicious Washington assault, atrocious officiating and their own lack of sweat equity, our guys took it on the chin to the tune of a disheartening 4-1 Game 2 defeat.
It gets worse. Brian Dumoulin…arguably our best defenseman…likely sustained a concussion courtesy of a brutal shoulder to the head delivered by Capitals thug Tom Wilson.
The next man up, in Mike Sullivan speak? Free-agent bust Matt Hunwick, who hasn’t played in nearly a month.
