Pens faded but held on for the First Round win 4-3, congrats Pens. I’ll bet you were sweatin’ that one out, Airborne.
I was sweating and more!
Congrats to the Columbus Bluejackets who showed they are a future threat to everyone in the NHL!
The Pens were the better team and showed it in Game 5 and most of Game 6, but the Jackets don’t give up easy. They are a very young team, and there is a lot of talent there that is just now starting to blossom. Hopefully they can keep the core of this team together for a while:
Johansen
Dubinsky
Foligno
Anisimov
Calvert
Umberger
Jenner
Wisniewski
Tyutin
Johnson
and of course, Bob
I look for next year to be a real breakout year in Columbus.
But for now, I will pull for a Blackhawks/Penguins Stanley Cup Final.
