To borrow from the movie Princess Bride, the Penguins showed last night that they’re only “mostly dead,” which is a lot different from “all dead” according to Billy Crystal’s character, Miracle Max.
Indeed, the Pens conjured up a few miracles of their own while prevailing over the Utah Hockey Club by a 3-2 count in overtime at the Delta Center.
Miracle No. 1: we awoke like Sleeping Beauty following a somnambulant first period that saw us register just four shots on goal and trail 1-0 on a power-play rocket by Mikhail Sergachev.
