Doh! for 9
This was the first Pens game I've got to watch for a while. I got to see another frustrating overtime loss that the Pens should have won. They outshot the Panthers 41-34, had a 12-7 power play advantage and the lead with less than 6 minutes to play.
However they gave up two goals in the first that were plain and simple bad goals. The first one caused by a Melichar misplay. The second that Thibault lost in his pads and eventually kicked in himself.
Then late in the third they took two penalties resulting in Fla goals, one a dubious interferece calls on Mario at the end of regulation, giving the Panters a 4 on 3 powerplay in OT.
Lost in the defeat was a phenominal performance by Crosby who personally drew 6 of the 12 FLA penalties with his aggressive drives to the net.
Goals were scored by Malone (assisted by Crosby), Lasse and Dicky T. It's a shame the Pens can't capitalize on #87's great play with a win.
As Stephen Weiss' slap shot banged past Thibault 53 seconds into overtime, the crowd loudly booed.
