Pens @ Caps In-Game Thread

On the Pens and the Over here....

IMO, Ovie is better than Sidney. I actually prefer to watch Malkin play more than Sid.

Interesting, never realized Ovechkin has never scored against the Penguins (if I heard Doc Emerick correctly).

Pens are going on the PP. Boyd Gordon for Tripping.

Let's go PENS!

Ovechkin scores a PowerPlay goal for the Caps. His 14th PPG and 43rd overall for the season. Caps lead 1-0.

Not true. He had 8 career goals against the Penguins prior to this game.

Well, make it 9 goals now.

Has he never scored against the Pens when playing in Washington?

I heard that too from him. I think he either said this year or at home against them but it definately was not all time.

 

[artiesliver]

I checked and he scored against Pittsburgh in Washington in his first season, hadn't scored against them since until today.


BTW, does anyone know why Mike Green has a French accent? I looked it up and he was born in Alberta and played juniors in Saskatoon. Was he raised in Quebec? Or is there some hinterland part of Alberta where they speak French?
