Penguins Score And Win

After 2 games many thought Detroit could sweep the Penguins since the Pens hadn't scored a goal in either of the first 2 games. But the Penguins notched a win on Wednesday to put the series at 2-1 in favor of Detroit. Even though Detroit lost in Game 3 I thought Detroit is still the better team. Pittsburgh was up 2-0 after the first period and one of the goals was a gift when Detroit turned the puck over in their own zone on a very sloppy pass by Stuart. Pittsburgh did seem to be playing better and generate more scoring attempts then the first 2 games, but Detroit scored 2 goals and had several opportunities to tie the game in the third. To me, the Penguins were able to play with the Red Wings but the Red Wings still appeared to be the better team. I think the Wings' will want to wrap this series up as quickly as possible and with a win tomorrow night...and if done in convincing fashion, might be the blow that sucks the life out of this Penguins team.
