Karma Comes Through For Penguins

from Mike Wise of the Washington Post,
When the other guys outshoot Washington 42-23 and make sensational Simeon go up, down, in, out and back again—until the Caps’ kid goalie conducted an aerobics class in the crease—something had to get through. Outhit, outhustled and completely outplayed, the Caps couldn’t have justified going up 3-0 in this increasingly entertaining Eastern Conference semifinal series.
Karma in playoff hockey would not exist if the Penguins lost Game 3. Desperate as they’ve been since they were eliminated in Game 6 of the Stanley Cup finals by the Detroit Red Wings a year ago, they responded in overtime with what was most likely a series-saving win on their home ice.

Pens deserved the win and they got it. This series is far from over. As far as I’m concerned the Pens have been the better team so far. This series reminds me a lot of how the Rangers-Caps series started…
