Shit Happens!

For all of you Leafs fans running your big mouths last night, just a thought..........the last time your team in the hotbed of hockey central won the Stanley Cup, I was TWO years old!! I will be 45 in March............so have a big tall glass of shut the f##k up, and enjoy a late December win, we know that there wont be in any May! As far as the Pens go, kind of a lackluster performance, giving up a lot of good chances to an inferior team coming off a game last nite, should have been 2 points in the bank, but again, shit happens..................Fleury had the best of times, making incredible saves to keep the game in reach in the third period, and the worst of times letting in several soft goals, including one I would have stopped in as well. I loved Rupp tying it late, but ala the Steelers, we lost one late........with a tough schedule coming up, I would have liked to have seen us bank two points here, but if we beat Buffalo and New Jersey next week, all will have been forgotten! My last comment, is that despite the explosive win v Ottawa, the last three games have shown some glaring defensive lapses.....lets not forget that the Sens put up 24 shots in the first period, andFleury kept us in the game until an offensive eruption killed the Senators.......but in the last 3 games we got smoked by the Devils, gave up 47 shots v the Senators and LOST to an inferior Leafs team on the second game of a back to back at home..........Time to bear down and make a move as we play 4 on the road, with some tough opponents, two at home including one against Philly, and then a 5 game west coast road trip with some very tough games, before coming home and hitting several Atlantic division foes..........GO PENS
