PLAYOFF GAMEDAY - GAME TWO - SENATORS

Written by Rick

 

7:00 PM
Senators Lead Series 1-0
 
Mellon Arena
 
Listen to the game at [WXDX]
 
Know the Enemy:
 
 
Game two.
 
The playoffs are a journey.
There are twists and turns.
There are highs and lows.
There are upsets.
 
The Penguins, Capitals, Devils and Sharks are all ranked higher than their opponents.
They all lost game one.
 
Anything is possible in the Stanley Cup Playoffs.
As we mentioned yesterday, if everything goes terribly wrong and the Penguins are swept by the Senators, this could be the last game in Igloo history.
 
But it won't be.

"It's the playoffs. There's always favourites and things like that, but you know it's one game"

-- Sidney Crosby
You don't give up on someone after one game.
 
 
Do it.
 

Go Pens.

@psamp saw the design concept page for Archer's space armor today. One concept had Archer in Xtacle armor. May have teared up.
