Weird game.
The Isles had a crazy crowd behind them, huge shorthanded momentum goal, huge tying goal by their best player. Out hit, out skated and generally outplayed Pittsburgh. Yet Pittsburgh still won.
Pittsburgh's Defence was horrid one through six and Fleury was his shaky self.
I've been underwhelmed by Iginla so far, but it does look like he is bearing down a bit more. It was a good move to take him off the point on the PP with the isles counter speed. He's still not a good match with Malkin, but I don't see the Crosby line being dismantled any time soon.
