It seems that if the Pens keep doing what they are doing offensively, which is doing everything thing they can to get two goals against the red hot Halak, and limit the number of bad bounces that end up in their own net, they can come out on top.
To their credit, the Canadiens played a better game today. They actually outshot the Penguins 33-25. The Pens have won both games that they were outshot in. Montreal had more sustained pressure at times during the course of the tonight’s game. The Pens still controlled the play for most of the game. Pittsburgh has definitely got the edge in puck possession.
Notes:
The Pens will have to fight through another energetic start from the Canadiens in game 6.
