Gary Roberts Is Back!

Found April 09, 2008 on NHLPens.com:
PLAYERS: Martin Gerber,  Marian Hossa,  Sidney Crosby,  Petr Sykora,  Marc-Andre Fleury,  Evgeni Malkin,  Gary Roberts
TEAMS: Ottawa Senators,  Pittsburgh Penguins

The Pittsburgh Penguins won Game 1 of the Stanley Cup playoff series against Ottawa Senators decisively by shutting them out 4-0. Goaltender Marc-Andre Fleury was perfect in net, turning aside all 26 shots by the Senators. Wiley veteran Gary Roberts playing in just his 2nd game since returning from a 42-game hiaitus with a broken leg, scored twice and led the Penguins in setting the tone for the rest of the series. Evgeni Malkin extended his dominating play into the post season by notching 3-points (1G, 2A), and fueling the Penguins' offense.

  • Mr Roberts is the playoffs. I remember when he was on TO, and played with Tucker and Sundin, or even the Roberts, Mogilney, Sundin line, man he was a beast.
    I say all the power to him, and I can't wait to see the Pens beat the Sens in 4 straight blowouts.
