Pittsburgh Penguins vs. Boston Bruins – Game 28

And last but not least who would have thought that Craig Adams, Arron Asham, and Pascal Dupuis would have been your three goal scorers? Not this guy, but [...]

Penguins hold off Hurricanes in 3-2 win
When things were most tense, Carolina had twice as many skaters on the ice as Pittsburgh did. To Penguins coach Dan Bylsma, it seemed as if it were even more.
''The 8-on-3,'' he quipped, ''was pretty gutsy.''
Backup goalie Brent Johnson came up big during the defensive stand that thwarted Carolina's three-man advantage and helped the surging Penguins beat the slumping Hurricanes...

GAME RECAP: Sabres 1 @ Hurricanes 0
My inner Homer Simpson gave a little “woo-hoo!” at the end of this game. The Buffalo Sabres (12-7-0) once again shook off a big loss and responded with a good win. In this case, they defeated the Carolina Hurricanes (6-11-3) 1-0 in Carolina. Jhonas Enroth got the shutout victory for the Sabres by stopping all 34 shots that he faced.

'Canes Insider: Hurricanes lacking punch
The Hurricanes are trying to put a bad three-day stretch behind them. They lost twice at home, and there was no positive spin coming after Sunday's 5-2 loss to the Dallas Stars.
"We gave up 10 goals at home in the last two games," coach Paul Maurice said. "That's just not enough fight."
It's a month into the season, and the Hurricanes are already sounding concerned. They've failed...

The Versus Game of the Week; Carolina at New Jersey
I have to admit, I love games that feature teams that aren't the Penguins, Bruins, Flyers, Capitals or Red Wings. I am the type that enjoys a little variety in my TV viewing life. This is the only game of the three on Versus that doesn't feature one of those teams. Of course, I could have gone Islanders-Bruins as a tribute to Schultz, but as an Isles fan, I doubt he needs...
