Stanley Cup

Stanly Cup in Hockey Hall of FameImage via Wikipedia

Last night NBC showed the seventh game of the Stanley Cup Finals. It is now official. The Pittsburgh Penguins didn't blow it, this time.

They did a lot more than just not blow it. In both the semi finals, and the finals this season they came back from being down 2 games to 0 to win the series. As earlier posted the Red Wings, and the Penguins played last year, and last year the cup slipped out Sid the Kid's hands, but not this time.

The game was awesome. Pittsburgh scored early in the second period. They followed that with another goal before the second intermission. However their fearless leader went down with an injury. Crosby was checked into the boards, and left the ice to go to the dressing room. He only came back in the third period with limited play.

The Penguins really didn't need him. They managed to diffuse the Red Wings. The Wings were unable to play there game, which I think led to the victory for the Pen's.
