12 Sidney Crosby And The Penguins Defy Stanley Cup Odds With Game 7 Win

by Robert L from Habs Eyes On The Prize on Jun 13, 2009 3:16 AM EDT

What amazed me most about the series and the Penguins' play, was how well they adjusted to Detroit's strengths as the series wore down. Winning four of the last five games in the round is stunning enough, but the Pens gave the Wings virtually nothing to build on in the final two games.

6 2009 Stanley Cup final: Malkin joins some elite company

by James Mirtle from From The Rink on Jun 5, 2009 5:45 AM EDT

In terms of single-season performances in the playoffs, he's also way up among some of the best performances of all-time. Malkin's 35 points are the highest total since both Wayne Gretzky and Doug Gilmour turned the trick 16 years ago.

170 Game 4 Recap..Strength down the middle: Jordan Staal, Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby protect this house...TIE SERIES

by Hooks Orpik from PensBurgh on Jun 5, 2009 12:16 AM EDT

The Pittsburgh Penguins tie the Stanley Cup Finals 2 games a piece on the strength of huge games (and goals) from Jordan Staal, Evgeni Malkin and Sidney Crosby. The Pens have the younger legs in what's becoming a long series, will it be a factor going forward?

21 2009 Stanley Cup final: Game 4 open thread

by James Mirtle from From The Rink on Jun 4, 2009 2:39 PM EDT

In case you haven't heard, Pittsburgh was in this very same situation a year ago, lost Game 4 2-1 and wasn't able to recover. A win here, and we're tied and have a new series. A loss, and all those dire predictions we'd heard for the Pens after going down 0-2 are all coming back again.
