Goals coming fast and furious
8 goals! 5 other games this afternoon and the two teams combuned did score 8 goals in any of them–most was a combined 7.
I watched the game on NHL Network today, and the W-peg TV guys were babbling about Fleury looking iffy after giving up his 4th goal.
If Fleury was ‘iffy,’ then what was Pavelec, who gave up an NHL-season-high 8 goals?
*O’Reilly, Niskanen, Engelland all minus-two on a day the team scored eight goals.
*Malkin only a plus-two after putting up 5 points himself.
Three stars:
1. Malkin
2. Letang (two goals, assist, +3)
3. Kunitz
