No matter what your rooting interests are for the Pittsburgh Penguins over the next couple of weeks, Thursday’s game against the St. Louis Blues was probably one that made you happy.
- It ended up being a good game where the Penguins played hard and significantly out-chanced one of the hottest teams in the league, while also rallying late in the third period when it would have been easy to just roll over.
- Sidney Crosby extended his point streak to 11 consecutive games and continued to produce.
- The young guys made a big impression, with Ville Koivunen recording an assist and Rutger McGroarty recording two points, including his first career goal to tie the game late in the third period.
