SLAP SHOTS

     Mrs. Black-N-Gold is smiling like a butcher's dog 'cause it's a hockey night in Pittsburgh! Our Pittsburgh Penguins close out their homestand tonight when they faceoff against the Ottawa Senators at PPG Paints Arena. These are your keys for tonight's game. 1)With Saturday night's come-from-behind 5-3 win, the Pens have won 2 in a row. If it's 3, it's for me! During that 2-game stretch, the Pens have scored 11 goals. It's all about the Goals, Goals, Goals, baby! 3)It's a tale of 2 teams. The Senators rank 27th in goals per game with just a 2.2 average. They're 8th in goals against, allowing only 2.4 per game. The Pens are 3rd in the NHL in goals per game, scoring an average of 3.1 per game. They are #24 in goals against at 3.0 per game. What's this tell us? Mrs. Black-N-Gold doesn't know. Just veto the Senators. Score early, score often, score BIG! Let's Go Pens!!!!
