My company (two Montreal fans) told me that the Ottawa Pittsburgh games was one of the most boring games they had ever seen. I bit my tongue, luckily my father in law who is also a huge Montreal fan called them a couple fucking idiots and told them to stop watching if they don't like Canada's team! lol
Anyways, I think the Pens will win the series, but would love to see Ottawa squeak another one out tonight!

As a huge Pens fan I was sad to see them lose that game, but it is hockey and strange things happen.
For me, what hurt was how they lost it. They are on the power play and can run the clock out and for some reason their coach has an odd combination of players on the ice. The entire game their power play had done a great job controlling the puck. They hadn't scored much with it, but they were controlling the puck well.
I don't fault them for losing in overtime. That was exciting, but I think their coach, who seems to normally be all over it, dropped the ball in the last 90 seconds of the game that cost them.
I look for them to win tonight. I think tonight's game will tell the tale of the series. It seems like the wild series with the Isle has energized the Pens while the wild series with the Habs kind of drained the Sens. Maybe the Sens will carry the momentum from that last win into tonight, but I think Sid and Malkin are going to be fired up and a handful to deal with.
