SLAP SHOTS

     Happy Pucks & Bucs Day! Our Pittsburgh Penguins faceoff against the Columbus Blue Jagoffs tonight at PPG Paints Arena in Game 2 of the 1st round playoff series. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)G Marc-Andre Fleury is going to get the start between the pipes again tonight since Matt Murray is still injured. MAF was pitching a shootout until there was about 8 minutes to go in the 3rd period of Wednesday's 3-1 win. Flower Power! 2)Columbus netminder Sergie Bobrovsky may be a Vezina Trophy winner (and possibly on his way to another) but his play in the postseason is suspect at best with a 2-7 mark, a 3.46 GAA and an .890 save percentage. Fire up the Goals, Goals, Goals! 3)Columbus stumbled to the finish line and Wednesday's lose should have them in desperation mode. They'll want to escape Pittsburgh with at least one win. Look out for the same type of crap that Columbus always likes to throw at us. Keep your head on a swivel and the puck on the net! Let's Go Pens!!!!
